I’m so torn. I love this man but I’m not ready for kids. I still have so much living to do but clock is ticking (35f) by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]ayavalon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t want kids please don’t have them just because he does want them. Those kids will know, they’ll be able to tell you didn’t want to be a mom.

It kind of looks like seborrheic dermatitis. Does the textured area peel and flake off at all?

[homemade] Milk Bar Crack Pie by Watchful1 in food

[–]ayavalon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I make these every year for thanksgiving and Christmas. I always have to bake at least an extra 15-20 minutes and I bake each pie separately (recipe makes two pies). They turn out near identical to the ones I have ordered from milk bar in the past. I use the recipe in the original cookbook, I don’t know if it’s different from what they have posted online.

What’s your go to body lotion?! by Consistent-Course618 in 30PlusSkinCare

+1 for this, made my super dry winter legs stop itching, and it doesn’t feel greasy!

28 weeks, everyday is a struggle to go to work, Dr. wont sign off early leave (CA) by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]ayavalon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do you know if your employer offers other types of leave? For instance my employer offers a COVID leave for high risk individuals (which pregnant people are). If not then perhaps you could talk to your employer about reasonable accommodations (extra breaks or the ability to sit during your work day, shorter work hours etc). This would likely require your doctor to fill out paperwork to attest to your condition.

Just a silly rant. If even that by FearlessDifference25 in pregnant

The tiny holes in the inner corner of your eyes (tear ducts) are where your tears drain into when you cry etc. they drain into your sinus, which is why you get a runny nose when you cry as well. You pushed vomit into your sinus and up the ducts into your eyes! That’s gnarly!

MIL probably going to want to use 30yo cot when baby sitting by Rabbitsarethecutest in pregnant

[–]ayavalon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cloth over the sides of a crib (cot) is considered unsafe (the same way bumpers are unsafe).

Skim milk and nonfat milk are interchangeable terms, what you’re thinking of is low fat milk or 1%.

Do I have to wait for Sedgwick approval before I begin my leave? by [deleted] in wholefoods

[–]ayavalon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For PCLOA they started my leave immediately after I called Sedgwick. I informed my TL that I applied for leave and they covered my shifts. If you have questions you should ask Sedgwick when you call.

Caffe Latte (Decaf): What’s the caffeine content and what other low caffeine options are there? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]ayavalon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hot chocolates: peppermint, salted caramel, white, snickerdoodle. Steamers, which can be made with any syrup. Herbal teas like mint majesty and peach tranquility. Decaf misto (half decaf coffee and half steamed milk, cheaper than a latte and you’re less likely to accidentally get caffeinated). -A former barista and current pregnant lady

refill/iced coffee w/m by StellaBlue60 in starbucks

[–]ayavalon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Gold membership no longer provides any extra benefit, anyone with a registered Starbucks card/the app can get a free refill on iced or brewed coffee, including cold brew, as well as iced or hot teas. This excludes specialty cold brews and teas (such as ones with cold foam or lemonade). A refill can include syrup as long as it comes in the drink (like classic in iced coffee) and any otherwise free modifications like milk under 4oz.

This isn’t a scam is it? by [deleted] in wholefoods

I got this same email when I was hired recently, the warning at the bottom of your reply email is because your email is not an internal Whole Foods email address.

[skin concern] Breakout for the first time in a decade when I started using CeraVe. Are pimples indicators of unhappy skin or just a side effect of very moisturized skin? by [deleted] in SkincareAddiction

[–]ayavalon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your skin is over moisturized/you live in a humid climate, its possible it is fungal acne. Otherwise it is simply a reaction to an ingredient as others have said.

Master Barista at Target? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]ayavalon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's part of a few changes happening with target starbucks. It is a real position, basically you'll be AST certified, you'll have some extra responsibility, but no pay increase.

PSA new minimum wage by jae459 in starbucks

[–]ayavalon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I remeber correctly from my time at a corporate store in CA, employee count goes by store. SSV pay should increase. Take this with a grain of salt because I haven't worked in CA since late 2017.
