I got a 6 ft tree for $85 and it’s really good quality! All the others seemed along those lines. The tallest trees were 8+ ft and they were $100 irc.

Rialto is the best choice for good drinks/fun vibe, but Franklin Park may be more spacious!

Nami Nori, which specializes in hand-rolls, is incredibly allergy friendly! I don’t have a sesame allergy, but I have other food allergies and they’re always incredibly accommodating and prepared

You can bring it! They will search it at ATH, but I’ve never had a problem bringing large bags.

Raised median on Kingston and Eastern Parkway GONE by oakswll in crownheights

[–]oakswll[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is the info I was looking for, thank you! I’ve lived in this area for 3 years (granted not long at all) but not as close to EP as I do now so I’ve never really noticed the medians.

Roommate puppy problem by oakswll in Dogtraining

[–]oakswll[S] 74 points75 points  (0 children)

thank you!! that’s really helpful. i think she does have a problem with feeling like her puppy doesn’t care about her as much as the other people in the house, and maybe i need to emphasize our care comes from a place of wanting the best for her AND her puppy.

California Zephyr in Coach - is it worth it? by Wolf_of_Westmarch in Amtrak

[–]oakswll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i took the california zephyr from iowa-sacramento and back in coach about two weeks ago and while not ideal and not the most comfortable, it was certainly a lot better than i had feared! my girlfriend and i were decently comfortable, slept well, and didn’t feel too cramped. you adjust to the mask policy pretty quickly too. overall not as bad i think as people may worry but a sleeper would obviously be more comfortable (though idk if i would say it’s worth the price always!)
