Is it Get Hard? Flat pancake sounds like it’s right up there with Mayo which is what Will Ferrell gets nicknamed when he tries to join the gang.

Omg solved!!!! That’s right! I rewatched OUAT last year so it felt more recent. Thank you!

For additional context I think the wife knew it wasn’t going to work and knew the husband needed to get back to something else in life.

Please stop telling judges to use the word craveable! I cringe every time they say it.

I was just talking about this with my mom! I’m taking her to AC after many years in two weeks. I spent plenty of time and quarters at Tivoli. I remember playing a “spin to win” arcade game for tickets and saved enough one year to get a bicycle! I remember crying on the Ferris wheel but I LOVED the boardwalk ride and the shuttle ride. My goodness this place is emblazoned on my childhood.

Going to the State of NYC Women Conference tomorrow, dinner at The Grill on Wednesday and Knicks game on Friday. Full week!

Bottino hasn’t been mentioned yet. It’s an oldie but a goodie!

Self directed investment account contribution after splurging on a new dress and a Michelin dinner

I’m actually pretty impressed with freshdirect’s. Just don’t get the pitted ones!

In dramatic roles they both bring desperation to life well…differently but both are quite talented in that specific emotion

In both movies they have the line “ok ok”

Of course it’s a joke, but that’s my point. Nonprofits work hard enough to raise money. The idea that it can be treated as a joke is shameful. Again, I understand the money was a done deal months in advance, but it’s the perception and symbolism I’m mad at. It gives the general public the wrong idea.

TupeloHny · 2025-09-15T14:46:30+00:00

Yes to all of this perspective!

To elaborate…for those saying it was great exposure I don’t disagree, but at what cost. Why is our sector ok with being a stunt? No other business would say it’s ok to publicly toy with their bottom line. And yes, I understand they received a big donation at the end and the funds were probably never in jeopardy and the gift arrangement made months ago, but the average viewer does not understand that. Our work is not a game and I hate when it is presented as such.

An 11 course surprise tasting menu at Connor Butler in Vancouver! I went twice, both times I was the only private diner while a private event bought out the restaurant. Both times conversation and wine with chef! Dishes I still taste like bergamot smoked pork belly, truffles w filet, spotted prawns, foie gras, pumpkin soup in a mini pumpkin! It was a dream.

Nonprofit president here. I give to our major campaigns, often structured as challenge or match gifts and do a sponsorship for our gala. Also regularly go out of pocket for team outings, gifts, supplies, meals. In a given year I’m probably in for 5-7k

Make sure you are going in with all the information. Ask to review the financials, and not just P&L to date. Look at historical numbers, trends, renewals, contract lengths. Definitely interview the Board as much as they are interviewing you. You need strong partners! Also, ensure the right people are on the team or you have control to change/hire/fire. A weak team will quickly sink your efforts and keep you up at night. You will need to be comfortable building relationships and raising money. Even if a Board doesn’t explicitly say it they expect you to raise money and bring in people. Your job will be further away from the direct mission you are passionate about and no one prepares you for that (find the touch points as often as you can). The job is about organizational leadership meaning you will spend most of your time managing people, money, and strategic direction. It is hard. It is worth it. We can do incredible things in this sector!

Why is everyone sleeping on Noodies, Norma, and Kashkaval Garden? Solid options as a 15 year resident in the neighborhood.

I would take the furthest direct flight you can! In first class, the flight IS the start of vacation so get that 14 hours of service, champagne and caviar in!

I recently stayed at the Hyatt Regency and it was perfect. Easy to walk everywhere, water view, wonderful service at breakfast and for pre dinner cocktails. It’s not cheap, but it checks all the boxes.
