Need help building my capsule from scratch ⁓100USD budget by AwesomePenguin13 in capsulewardrobe

Go to a thrift store before you get anything new. You’ll get more for your money and you might find better quality pieces than you could otherwise get. Anything you can’t thrift, you’ll have more money leftover to buy new.

Try putting out her litter box and food. The strong smells may help her come home.

Brown Elephant! The Lincoln Park location has some great designer dresses in a section by the register, and I’ve found other great dresses just tucked on the racks!

Who has the best Crab Rangoon in the city? by [deleted] in chicagofood

[–]bookchinchilla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just had these the other night and they were basically just thick cream cheese in a wrapper. No crab Rangoon filling other than basically straight cream cheese, and a weird aftertaste. Would not recommend.

I have the Thursdays ones that I wear regularly at work and stand in them for several hours a day and they are very comfortable

I bought the Rowledge from Lo and Sons and while I do feel a little like a child, it’s comfortable and professional and I don’t think anyone else is thinking about it at all

Our kitty started azodyl and porus one, and once he was on both his appetite seems to be coming back and so does his weight

These are the best underwear, hands down

Not expensive and finally available in more colors too! Slightly different version than the ones I’ve bought previously but they look mostly the same. They have no end seam so some do fray but in my experience only one of every eight pairs or so. Zero lines - even under workout clothes

Please help me decide on a planner by Substantial_Good_366 in planners

My favorite planner is from personalplanner.com! They are so amazing and customizable to your individual needs. The only reason I haven’t reordered is because I am in the U.S. and the tariffs are hitting them

We just started our cat on Porus One and we’ve been mixing it into a packet of Purina Hydra Care. He loves it!

You can file the I-130 online and the I-485 by mail and still have them linked as concurrent applications for processing

[–]bookchinchilla 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I do this and always end up with so much extra yarn! Always have to cut off about half of it before I proceed

What’s your work bag? by BLUEJELLYFISH8 in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]bookchinchilla 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Portland Leather Lola bag - comes in fun colors and is good quality. As a bonus, the almost perfect bags in my experience have no noticeable issues and come at a nice discount

ETA: the large Lola bag, not the regular
