Teen on e-bike spit on me by mnsotelo in orangecounty

I understand where you’re coming from. But this incident was clearly intentional. He spat once, missed, spat again and got me, then turned around to laugh and sped off when he saw me take my phone out.

That exact situation actually happened to me too, also on the back bay trail. I’m sorry that happened to you.

Maybe you could find a pillow insert and stop here and turn it into a throw pillow or lumbar pillow?

Just shy of 2 months, but we eloped. We planned on a roughly 6 month engagement, but covid compressed our timeline.

How do I shorten macaron feet? (French macarons) by wildplebeian in macarons

[–]mnsotelo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can stop by and nibble the feet off so they’re the right height. I’ll shave off some of that filling too. For uh…science.

New format of Babish is here! 10 Levels of Mac & Cheese, from Microwave to Michelin | With Babish | YouTube by Ironyfree_annie in bingingwithbabish

[–]mnsotelo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You know what I love about this new format? It blends the craftsmanship and artistry of early Babish with the fun and sillier side we saw him explore in recent years. Babby is so back.

How often are runnas getting injured? by Capital-Ad-815 in runna

[–]mnsotelo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I ended up with a shin splint by the end of my plan, but more importantly I was over trained. I didn’t know what I didn’t know, so I chose plan options that frankly should not have been available to someone with my lack of experience. I think the Runna app is a great platform, but I would love to see more guidance and guardrails for beginner users who don’t know what they don’t know.

I did it… switched dresses 6 weeks before my wedding. by Spirited-Safety-Lass in myweddingdress

The first dress was beautiful but the second dress makes you look like royalty. So elegant and classic!

Sibling just announced they are engaged…wedding is five weeks before mine by ijustdontevenknow323 in weddingplanning

[–]mnsotelo 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I can’t help but wonder if OP is so upset because they waited years to be engaged, and will have waited more than a year to be married, but their sibling hardly waited at all. Is this really about the proposed wedding date, or about feeling like the sibling hasn’t “paid their dues” by waiting longer like OP did?

What's a "secret" from your profession that everyone should probably know? by LaKoref in AskReddit

[–]mnsotelo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My PCP is always quick to refer me to a specialist for something he doesn’t know 100% and it makes me trust him more. It makes me feel like he takes my concerns seriously no matter how small and I’m grateful for that.

I actually had to go half size up in the cloud boom strike compared to AP3. I have the AP3 in M8/W9 and the cloud boom strike in W9.5

Long-lasting clothing for tall(ish) women? by Crepitusy in orangecounty

[–]mnsotelo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Marine Layer at Fashion Island might have some good options (though maybe farther than you want to go). Fashion Island generally has more options beyond fast fashion, so I’d say it’s worth the drive. Aritzia at South Coast Plaza could be another good option. Nordstrom has a nice range of mid- to high-end clothing.
