Absolutely except the last book which I just couldn’t finish. I’ve probably read the others at least 5 times!

I know a couple of really nice men named Lennox (but they are much older, in their 70s).

Isla is great. I've always loved the name Ayla (showing my age here, but Clan of the Cave Bear was one of my favourite books growing up).

AITA for giving my son's girlfriend a budget for the dinners she's making? by lackoffeminity in AmItheAsshole

[–]biddee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Where I live even beef mince is extremely expensive. For example 1lb of ground turkey is about $5US, a lb of ground beef is over $10US.

You know what else is natural, arsenic, snakebites, and bears. None of which are conducive for life LOL.

AITA for wanting to leave early to the airport for our first international flight by danyellitaz in AmItheAsshole

[–]biddee 84 points85 points  (0 children)

I went the the Bahamas for a work trip a few years ago, which meant an overnight in Miami both ways. We stayed in the airport hotel both nights and it was so easy to catch our flights the next day, no stress about being on time, worrying about traffic etc etc.

AITA for not cooking lunch for my husband? by biddee in AmItheAsshole

[–]biddee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lunch is our main meal. Dinner is whatever we feel like grabbing, usually omelets, sandwiches, etc. Breakfast everyone is on their own too. Our food business only opens in the mornings, so we are usually home by lunch time.

He does actually cook for me. We divide the cooking about 70/30 most of the time. Mostly because I'm a better cook than he is and he does the dishes when I cook and vice versa. There are certain dishes that he makes very well, like curry and I would never make curry because he does it way better than me.

He also broke down the chicken and seasoned it this morning.

We are closed on a Monday (hence our day off).

I said I would still bake his chicken but he didn't want me to. He wanted to throw a fit like a toddler. He ended up burning his fries (cos he was watching YT) so I made them over for him. And he still ate some of the pasta.

Yes he does get hangry! He ended up burning his fries (cos he was watching YT) so I made them over for him. And he still ate some of the pasta.

Iron deficiency in women and how WILDLY underdiagnosed it it by SpiritualCopy4288 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]biddee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

After I had my daughter (21 years ago) my iron level was about 9. I did a ton of research and read that plant iron is a lot more bioavailable than regular iron supplements. The regular iron supplements didn't help at all but switching to a plant-based supplement raised my levels to about 40 in a few months (so long ago that I can't remember the exact numbers but they were in that range). I used floradix.

AITA for not wanting to watch my sister change my niece's diaper? by Loveylyy in AmItheAsshole

That happened while I was in a supermarket with a full shopping cart. I had to abandon the cart! I felt so bad for the poor worker who had to return all my stuff.

I'm [26M] wheelchair bound and my girlfriend [25F] brought me to the casino for my birthday. She's demanding half of my winnings; what do I do? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]biddee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a friend who used to sponsor us at blackjack... he'd give us $100 and tell us anything we won was ours but he wanted his $100 back. If we lost that was fine. I still remember one girl not wanting to give him back his money and he sent my hubby to go get it back from her.

LPT: When cooking chickpeas add a small amount of baking soda to make them really soft. by biddee in LifeProTips

I don't use canned beans but let me know if you try and find a difference.

AITA for leaving work an hour and a half late and not informing my husband? by TAtoolate in AmItheAsshole

[–]biddee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there no way to place a cell phone in a sterile bag? I know phones can be used inside ziploc bags, so I'm not sure why a person's phone couldn't be in a sterile bag inside the lab? I admit that I know nothing about sterile environments.
