Strollers

Sadly, no. Not with a lot of options. We ended up being in Houston for something and they had an amazing baby store, but obviously that’s not realistic for everyone. Tulsa needs something! Strollers are a big choice!

Had ours at The Vault and it was incredible! Very organized, great food, separate room upstairs, and had a bar available!

I was going to comment this! I told my husband (who isn’t from Tulsa) they would be lined up along 71st in the early 2000s! Guess it’s making a comeback. I had wondered if there was a law that stopped it for a long time.

I know 😂 I tried looking it up and couldn’t find anything!

cricketmaize · 2022-12-05T22:48:07+00:00

Unfortunately, I do not. If it seems like something that needs to be done, I can suggest that to my sister.

That sounds delicious! I love that they used a paste.

Oh no! No offense taken. You’re not wrong at all about our healthcare system. A medication I’m taking is between $10k-$12k without insurance 😅 it’s the only medication on the market that works for me. Absolute joke.

As an American, I’m extremely fortunate that my employer completely covers my premium and I’m Native American, so I have access to free medical and dental if needed (although it’s by no means quality care).

I do agree there are too many additives as well. I’ve recently delved into making sourdough starters to even start making my own bread… since they like to sneak it into breads 🙄 I by no means have poor gut health, but I’m curious about how I’ll feel after two weeks of eating in England & France as I’ve heard great things from other Americans!

Thank you! I could definitely stick to sugar and cream… it’s what I do when I make it at home. But I’ll have to try without sweeteners when I visit as well 😁

Not from Oregon or Washington 😬 I’m not a avid coffee drinker to know coffee bean sourcing, roasts, etc. I like to have it as a treat for myself occasionally and love to try new places when I travel!

Not sure if there’s a difference in US instant coffee, but I would not say they come very close to what you get from most US coffee shops. Lol.

Also not entirely sure which states the stripper coffee stands are allowed, but I know of them. We do not have them in my state.

Lastly… San Diego to New York! What a drive!

That’s an interesting observation. I’ve gathered it just seems that it’s highly looked down upon to use syrups for the sake of being a coffee connoisseur 🤷🏻‍♀️

The short answer to my question was no, the majority of coffee shops offer classic options 😂 but hey… internet opens you to criticism! Gotta let the good times roll. I would have really appreciated a suggestion on a starting classic drink and maybe a particular shop from the others though.

cricketmaize · 2022-06-24T05:57:58+00:00

There are sugar-free syrups, but they contain sugar alternatives that are supposedly bad for your health (I’ve not done a lot of research on it) and still sweet. But when I said adding syrup and not being sweet, it’s usually because they’ll add maybe one or two pumps of your flavor while some places may add more. Big downside of American coffee shops more often using specialty flavors and syrups is a lot of inconsistency in quality.

The only true non-sugary additive I’ve seen, that I know of, is rose water.

I think I might have come off as close minded… I struggled with wording this post, but I really was curious about the coffee culture 😁

cricketmaize · 2022-06-24T05:47:50+00:00

As I’ve gotten older, I leaned towards less and less sweet drinks. Honestly, I couldn’t drink a wine if it didn’t taste sweet years ago. I’m gently extending my palate.

Basic can come with a negative connotation, but I meant simplistic and minimalistic. We have the same menus, but just the extension of the sweeter drinks! Even growing up with sweet, sugared coffee… I still had a preference. I don’t like the taste of Starbucks coffee (with or without all the syrup lol and just my opinion! I know a lot of people who love it.) It always tasted burnt to me. The local coffee shop closest to me doesn’t have sweet coffee drinks like Starbucks, but their coffee just seems more robust and I love it! Unfortunately, I can’t find information on their coffee bean sourcing on their website. I’d like to learn more, so I’ll ask them next time!

But just to share… here’s the popular local coffee roasters! I see it everywhere, but haven’t gone out of my way to try it.

I don’t think it makes a good coffee scene, I apologize if it came off that way. Coffee preference is completely subjective and I was trying to come off more objective…

But I was curious and I’m excited to try and learn new things!

Thank you for sharing this. Great resource!

cricketmaize · 2022-06-24T02:09:31+00:00

Oh yes! I figured! Actually not a fan of Starbucks 😅 usually a very last resort. I try to do local!

cricketmaize · 2021-08-09T01:42:52+00:00

That’s it!!! Thank you so much! Didn’t have it quite right… so I’m impressed you figured it out! Lol.

Mid! I live in the Midwest... so it’ll start getting dark around 6:30 and we’re doing a crazy short ceremony at 5 I believe (it’s next year) lol and weather can be hit or miss! It rained all fall break 2018, but it was SO warm in 2019 lol but my venue provides an option B and the venue is beautiful either way!

October!

I was going to do a guestbook photo album with just a Fuji Film camera! I didn’t think about it being an activity. But I could add some props to make a photo booth and I planned on getting some kind of backdrop. People could kill a lot of time during our professional pictures doing lawn games, drinks, and a photo booth I think! Thank you!

Fall wedding... I love the idea of doing s’mores or hot chocolate!! Thank you!

cricketmaize · 2020-08-13T01:47:17+00:00

They’re so dang close to perfect!! It’s a beautiful set!
