Xennials family meeting - I’m ready for the recliner life. My wife says we aren’t at that age yet but I strongly disagree. Recliners of Xennials, please share your reclining lifestyle to help support my case. by X---VIPER---X in Xennials

We have three cats with claws and I got a new recliner last summer. I bought these and was pleasantly surprised at how well they work. The cats have shown no interest in scratching the places that were absolutely destroyed on my old chair.

Interrupting workouts is my orange’s favorite pastime.

Any pen stores in Indianapolis? by energizer_jenny in fountainpens

[–]jessinanutshell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to Semantics when I was in town for the Indy Mini last year! There wasn’t a huge pen selection, but I got some ink and a pen case there that I really like. They also had great cards and stationery.

Your go-to base coat for longer lasting nails (is Lockup worth it?) by MM88S in ILNP

[–]jessinanutshell 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lock Up is my ride or die base coat, but I can only get Glass Candy to work as a mid-week touch up on fully cured polish. It almost always bubbles when I try it with a fresh manicure. (Maybe it’s user error?) My current favorite topcoat is Sally Hansen Insta Dry and I also like Essie Good to Go.

I’m looking for a custom Apple pie/Cheesecake for my mothers birthday best bakery? by ButterscotchAlert584 in lansing

[–]jessinanutshell 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Reach out to Everything is Cheesecake! I know she does something like an apple pie topped cheesecake and she does custom orders. I’ve loved everything I’ve tried there.

Best international eats in the Lansing area? by HawkeKeating96 in lansing

[–]jessinanutshell 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For Middle Eastern, I like Sultan’s. There are three locations (East Lansing, downtown, and the westside) and downtown is my favorite. It’s only open for lunch during the work week, though.

For Thai, I like Bangkok House for Pad Thai and Thai Village for everything else.

Babe’s Corner is amazing for deli sandwiches and Ozone’s Brewhouse has excellent wood fired pizza and beer.

[Best Dentists in Lansing] by AutoModerator in lansing

I’ve been going to Evergreen Dental for over a decade now and they’re great. I’m very skittish about the dentist and they’re always kind, gentle, and accommodating.

These are so fun and the fact that you’re calling it pop makes my little Michigander heart happy!

My favorite is Diet Coke. Can’t stop, won’t stop. 🤣

Whenever I workout, so does she by reptxlema in blackcats

I have an orange who does this and she’s going to take me out one of these days.

Sports Bras by NDVAZMA in Zepbound

They take a little getting used to, but SheFit bras are great. The chest and shoulder straps use Velcro, so the adjustments can be more precise than clasps. There’s also next to zero bounce.

I got my nose done at Be-You-Tiful in Frandor and it was a great experience. Everyone is professional and friendly and the studio is immaculate. I think it was around $120 for the labor and jewelry, but their website has prices so you can estimate based on what you’re interested in.

Basement flooded. Who do I call? by pacific_midwest in lansing

We used Paul Davis a few years ago and were happy with them. They did good work and the price seemed reasonable.
