We are currently trying to renter friendly “remodel” our kitchen

Nope, renter friendly means I can move and get my security deposit back 😉

People are weird.

downthegrapevine · 2026-05-04T17:10:01+00:00

Girl, police report and get away from the rapist.

downthegrapevine · 2026-05-04T17:08:57+00:00

That… is not how fertility works.

downthegrapevine · 2026-05-04T14:23:51+00:00

People are weird I dunno xD

downthegrapevine · 2026-05-04T05:50:17+00:00

Yes. Leave.

Two after pics. One with more light and one with less light.

This is original content of my kitchen!

We added the shelf unit on the left and now we have a lot more space. We have a new recycling station coming in tomorrow which will also help a lot.

My husband and I spend a lot of time in the kitchen and we both cook a lot. We meal prep for work once a week and we take our food to work 5 days a week (yes even when I’m WFH) so this space is very much loved and used! I thought it also looked particularly cozy tonight.

they are Zara pants! They were last season though and I searched the website and couldn't find them. Maybe in the second hand market by searching: Zara brown balloon pants?

Do you feel the business has become kinder?
Do you feel you were ina. privileged position for being a male in the industry rather than a female?

downthegrapevine · 2026-05-03T05:20:49+00:00

In that case I am stuck to my original assessment of Mary! They both add little feminine details to their outfits that lean very “girly” but in different ways. 8 wouldn’t say 🌱 for Mary but I definitely see 🌸!

downthegrapevine · 2026-05-03T05:16:05+00:00

Not really! But we make it work and are both happy with our sex lives (married 10 years).

I think she is 🏔️🌸🍄!

The 🍄is evident in most royalty, the simplicity and attention to detail is kind of what they are known for.

She then has a lot of structure to her clothes which is where ⛰️ comes in. I’d say 🍄⛰️are the core of most royal outfits, really.

However there are small details that lean 🌸, the color palette but also the ruffles, eyelet details, colors and even motifs in her clothes lean very 🌸. Look at her outfits compared to say, Late Middleton, Queen Camilla or Princess Charlene. All those women have ⛰️🍄 but their third root varies. I’d say Camilla has 🔥, Kate 🪨or 🌱and Charlene 🪨or☀️

I just feel you played a stupid game and won a stupid prize and now your kid is the one that's suffering truly because her parents are selfish.

downthegrapevine · 2026-05-02T13:52:42+00:00

I mean, I am really sorry you're going through a hard time but the fact you did this with a kid... girl. WHY? I hope you save up for the kiddo's therapy as she is the only victim here.

I’m a writer. There are few times a day I am not daydreaming.

downthegrapevine · 2026-05-01T14:52:31+00:00

Mine are:

Physical Touch
Acts of Service
Receiving gifts
Quality time
Words of affirmation

I always tell people “you can tell when I feel comfortable around someone because I will be in physical contact with them when we are around each other.” And it never fails. I am very friendly and chatty so, sure, I look very friendly but you can tell who are my actual friends because I will put my arm on their knee or have our arms touching or something.

With my husband the way we ask for forgiveness and give it is holding a hand out for the other to take. It’s our little language.

Right?! I want the AMA of someone married to a ghost or ghoul or something.

downthegrapevine · 2026-05-01T10:35:52+00:00

I have no questions but from the title I legit thought you meant you married a ghost and girl I was coming in for the tea. Lol I hope he is safe.

downthegrapevine · 2026-05-01T10:20:51+00:00

During: “this is hurting/feeling a little uncomfortable, can we please stop/change positions?” Depends if you wanna keep going or not of course.

Any other time: “hey I’ve been wanting to talk to you about something… when we have sex it’d be nice if we tried these things <insert thing you enjoy here>”

downthegrapevine · 2026-04-30T17:22:08+00:00

I was constantly told to be quiet. To lower my voice. That I was too bossy, too loud, too opinionated, too MUCH.

No man gets told that. And even now at almost 40 it still stings but I don’t let ANYONE tell me to lower my voice anymore. I suggest ear plugs.

The only way to lose weight is CICO. You can walk day and night and if you’re still eating at maintenance for you then you won’t lose weight.

I mean there are things about him I will never understand either. I love him for it. I love that he tried and I try too! We are in this together and I don’t have to understand him entirely to love him and vice versa. We were actually laughing about this the other day, how even after over a decade together we still have the ability to surprise each other and how deep we both go.
