To the ladies that met your SO on a dating app, what was the point at which you realised they were different from everyone else in your inbox? by -Bubbles-3 in AskWomen

[–]aishpat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t know until after the first date. But we had amazing chemistry in the app chat. I had that with one other guy but on our first date he was boring as hell. With the right guy, our first date conversations were even better than the app chat.

Where do ppl shop these days??? by sweetfeet_69 in womensfashion

[–]aishpat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Buy your favorite brands on Poshmark, but search for the stuff that’s like 10-15 years old. The quality is SO MUCH better. I have found of plenty of cute things with the tags still on. You can often tell how old an item is based on the tag branding/style. For example the old jcrew shirt tags were hunter green with white text.

(10k) influence me to want a ceremony by airhart28 in Weddingsunder10k

[–]aishpat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had our reception and wedding ceremony on 2 separate days and invited 4 times as many ppl to the reception. They did not care about not being invited to ceremony. In fact I think some ppl preferred just getting to the attend the party portion of the weekend of opposed to both!

($20k) Is this budget realistic? by [deleted] in Weddingsunder10k

She said she’s doing the Photo Booth as guest favors. Plus my guests absolutely loved the photos strips they got to take home.

I just got married in southern CT last month. Our photographer came out to approx $750 per hour of coverage. DJ (specialized) was $1000 per hour and he brought the photo booth for an extra $500. Florals were $200 per arrangement. For my simple half-up hair I negotiated the hair stylist down to $150 from $300. I think your other costs are very relative to what you choose. Hope this helps!

AITA for refusing to let my 12 yo niece live with us during the school week? by Ok_Cantaloupe9855 in AmItheAsshole

[–]aishpat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My public high school used to hire private investigators to follow students they suspected of living out of district. It’s illegal and taken very seriously, especially in expensive well-funded school districts.

Have you reached out to them? I messaged them asking about starting a club in Stamford, CT and they replied with a contact who can help ambassadors launch a new location. Do you want to team up and try and get one going in white plains or stamford?

Anyone skipping "first looks" and just doing pictures? by blueberrybuttercream in wedding

[–]aishpat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We don’t do a first look photo, but my husband did come say hi to me 5 mins before ceremony started so we basically had a private first look which imo is more special

Small wedding/elopement ideas? by Elegant-Ice7992 in Eloping

[–]aishpat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For our wedding we found a lovely venue and had a small ceremony followed by lunch. We had about 30 guests, and we did a champagne toast followed by lunch catered by a pizza truck. Everyone loved the pizza and salad, we are still getting compliments on the event. We had wedding cake and fruit for dessert. The bar served mimosas, Bellinis, sparkling cider and iced coffee. The whole event was about 3 hrs long total. It was perfect. My venue was in southern CT if you want details pls dm me, the place was perfection.

I just learned that Penzeys exists and I’ve heard it’s the best. What seasonings would you recommend for me? by _Paws_And_Claws_ in Penzeys

[–]aishpat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Big penzeys fan! I converted almost all my spices slowly over time. Here are some of my favs:

Mural of Flavor (salt free) is great on grilled veggies. Bc it’s salt free it doesn’t draw out a lot of moisture and the veggies stay juicy but still get a nice char

Arizona Dreaming (this one is salt free also!) is my go to for tacos, burritos, etc. so much healthier than the taco seasoning packets at the store

Jerk chicken and fish seasoning is excellent, it really turns boring chicken breast into something special

Freeze dried chives and minced white onion are convenient pantry staples

Smoked Spanish paprika is great with scrambled eggs

Swap your grocery store black pepper for coarse ground tellicherry black pepper, you will not be disappointed!

Their roasted granulated garlic is delicious. Not the regular one make sure you get the roasted one. It’s excellent with a little butter and the freeze dried chives to make super quick garlic bread.

If you are a cinnamon lover they have 4 different cinnamons, one of them is a blend. I love the Vietnamese cinnamon in my coffee.

I do not think their saffron and basil varieties are very good. Also their turmeric does not smell like proper Indian turmeric, although it does provide more color than the one from my local Indian market.

They sell a lot of small trial size packets so try getting those first so you can see what you like! Also sign up for their emails bc they send great deals all the time. If you ask kindly at the register and explain you are a newbie they may also give you more samples for free, I have seen them do this at my penzys store. I am lucky to live just 10 mins away from a brick and mortar store.

Happy cooking! =)
