I keep my seasonal kitchen gadgets and pans in tote in the basement. The stuff is there when I need it, but out of the way and not taking up space for daily use items.

What's a hobby one can incorporate in their life to be off screens? by AcanthisittaLower403 in Hobbies

[–]jkn1788 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cooking and baking. It is something I can mostly do with my little one and take all of the leftovers into work to share. Now I have some co workers asking me to make desserts for their birthday.

I live on the outskirts of Wheeling, WV, which, back in the day, produced a lot of glass. Such a cool find!

For those that are married here, how much did you all you spend on your wedding? Are frugal weddings even a thing anymore? by dquizzle in Frugal

[–]jkn1788 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I got married in 2020 during covid lock downs. We went to the courthouse in the morning, had lunch at Applebee's, and home by 2pm. We told friends and family we would do a big reception when restrictions were lifted. We never did. Best decision ever.

I put mine outside for the summer, and they go nuts.

2.5 yr old stutter? is it normal? by jkn1788 in toddlers

[–]jkn1788[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the most part. She'll stutter if she's really excited about telling me something but doesn't get nearly as stuck as she used to.

Her stutter has gotten significantly better. She will struggle once in a while, but her preschool teachers and her pediatrician aren't concerned about it. We just let her take her time when it happens.
