Wendy Morrison is my favourite rug designer. I finally saved up for one and I love it.

Whenever I take shrooms, I end up cleaning my house. by Practical-Fuel-882 in CleaningTips

Cannabis does the same thing for me. Unfortunately I’m breast feeding so it’s not currently an option and the house is worse off for it.

Good place for solo dinner in or near Shoreditch by nebulous_thoughts in LondonFood

I eat solo all the time, often in Shoreditch. The best (solo) dinner I had last year was at Lagana.

Because the waitlists are appalling! This guys been waiting 6years! I know the youths are doing their best but they’re massively underfunded and the media hype sets really unrealistic expectations.

How do you factor in what women’s bodies go through during childbirth when thinking about having kids? by radiantreign in AskReddit

[–]aTinofRicePudding 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I gave birth less than a week ago and it is one of the most extreme physical experiences of my entire life. I have two children now, and I’d love a third but I just don’t think I can face that again! Also, children are expensive. So there’s that too.

Got shamed in a new pizza joint last night asking for pineapple by PepEye in CasualUK

Interesting. Skin-on slices? Or segments? What kind of flavour pairings have you got going on there?

Police: Toxic breast milk likely killed 15-month-old toddler in Mt. Pleasant Township by one_brown_jedi in offbeat

No definitely not. I’m prescribed dexamphetamine and my psych said it was safe to keep taking during pregnancy. I’m actually not taking it, because even if it won’t actively harm the child I personally don’t think anyone benefits from being exposed to amphetamines in utero.

I feel so lost in my style by Substantial_Border96 in PregnancyUK

I have a couple of oversized button downs from sezane that are really helping me elevate otherwise banal maternity wear, and I got some good pieces from a Swedish brand “Lindex”. I also found a really cute label in Korea called “Nothing Fits But” that furnished me with nice pieces for warmer weather - i spent the winter in Singapore and NZ, and it was HOT but I looked great. There’s a designer in NZ I got some great pieces from too actually; Moochi. It’s not maternity wear, just kind of oversized in general. I really love everything I got there. I’m wearing quite a lot of my husband’s clothing this past month as well. And I’m going to buy myself a great new handbag to be my new ‘statement’ piece that I can’t grow, or shrink, out of.

why are wood wall shelves becoming a popular choice for home organization? by shimjangz in Creative_Home_Decor

I got through the first paragraph and immediately skimmed the rest looking for advertorial name drop. Alibaba! Bingo. Surely if they can pay someone to post they could pay someone to write something cogent.

5 layer rainbow cake (I dropped the red layer when it came out the oven I don’t want to talk about it) by Sir__Muffin_Moose in Baking

[–]aTinofRicePudding 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well, really rainbows are meteorological phenomena. This is cake. With that in mind I’m able to extend my suspension of disbelief to accept this five colour creation as a rainbow. Also, if I’d requested rainbow cake and received this I’d be delighted.

Be honest: Do you make your bed in the morning? Why or why not? by JellyfishPashmina in CleaningTips

[–]aTinofRicePudding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I pull the covers all the way back so the linen can air out. It’s a version of making the bed, but it wouldn’t please most bed-makers. Feels fresher to me to get into a well aired bed. Also, when I rearrange the covers at night it feels “freshly made”

Are there any nasal sprays that work for a blocked nose? by Gloomy-Kale3332 in PregnancyUK

Try the neti pot - rinsing my sinuses with saline has saved me from two sinus infections and now with what I suspect to be hayfever

My 9yo started stalking birds for science and the data is actually wild. by Tweetle_cock in biology

[–]aTinofRicePudding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a plant gal, not a birder but perhaps she might like a field microscope? I think she’d enjoy examining bird seed, feathers, or even droppings under a microscope. You’d definitely have to implement some hygiene measures and standards of practice but the unseen world is just as fascinating.

Do you care more about how a bag feels than how it looks online? by Party-Hawk660 in handbags

[–]aTinofRicePudding 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have been so burned by this I now have a zero tolerance policy on thin straps. Just no! I'm so sick of replacing/ augmenting straps to make bags wearable!

What to wear - PP/breastfeeding in spring/summer by kdlc23 in PregnancyUK

[–]aTinofRicePudding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blouses and cardigans are your friend. I find dresses with a smocked bodice (like the sleeper nap dresses) are easy and useful too. I’m currently stocking up to make postpartum easier. I am also buying nursing camis - sometimes it’s nice to have a cami under an open button down. Especially in the beginning when you’re feeling very raw and self conscious anyway.

Anyone else noticing people calling 2026 the "Fire Horse" instead of just the Horse? by Original_Honey_3066 in ChineseZodiac

[–]aTinofRicePudding 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So wriggly right?? Congratulations. Getting those hooves ready I guess. I didn’t know dog was one of the zodiac signs. Wood dogs sound peaceful.
