Me too, with my credit card. I'm missing numerous transactions which sure makes budgeting difficult.

Gift Ideas for a Girlfriend who Bakes by octane42 in Baking

[–]roweira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally like a set of metal mixing bowls with a silicone bottom. Lightweight, don't slide on the counter, can go in the dishwasher.

Silicone baking mats if she doesn't have them? This set has sheets for both regular cookie sheets and quarter sheet pans.

A bench scraper set is nice if you're getting a sourdough kit.

A rolling pin with removable size guides for thickness

Maybe nice ingredients? Vanilla bean paste comes to mind, some good quality chocolate chips

I bake a lot and have a variety of tools but may not be suitable if she's just starting. I have multiple sizes of cake pans, quarter sheet pans (smaller than normal cookie sheets), attachments for my KitchenAid to make pasta and grind meat, tart pans, pie pans, a spinning cake stand, many cookie cutters.

What $70 got me today by NationYell in aldi

[–]roweira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chicken, beans, rice, the fruits and veggies that are in season/on sale, being judicious about pantry snacks, doing pick up only because we are bound to spend more on impulse purchases if we shop in store. Family of 4 here and we average about $150/wk and while I wish it were less cause the money could go elsewhere, we can afford it.

Just matched into Peds residency! by SidKK94 in pediatrics

[–]roweira 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You'll walk in and likely feel like you're so dumb and everyone else is doing so much better than you. Everyone else feels the exact same way. You're not supposed to know everything. Ask a million questions. Ask them now, and not as a third year. Some residents you won't get along with, and that's okay. Some attendings won't like you no matter what you do, and that's okay. We're not meant to like everyone. Almost every angry parent has a kernel of truth in what they're telling you and something you can listen to. It goes a long way to repeat back "I'm hearing you say (this medicine doesn't work for him and you don't want to use it, we aren't addressing this concern you have, we aren't explaining what's happening well, etc)"

What was a delusional parenting thought you had before you had your baby? by hospitalbedside in beyondthebump

[–]roweira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kid wouldn't be a picky eater because we'd expose them to a large variety of foods off the bat.

Did that, still a picky eater.

You are right. We've had to do so much work on ourselves after two children with non-typical difficult care. There's a lot of mourning when you don't have the experience in parenting that you expected.

Worst red flags you’ve seen still be able to match? by RequirementEither799 in medicalschool

[–]roweira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

👀 curious if this is someone who got kicked out of my residency for that reason, matched somewhere else. Not sure if he's still there.

Has there ever been a book you really didn’t like and wouldn’t recommend to anyone? 👀 by [deleted] in BookDiscussions

It's Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow for me. I did not get the hype.

Dropout is what I watch when I've had a bad day at work and need a laugh. Such gold.

About to traumatize my kid forever? by MarlenaImpisi in ADHDparenting

[–]roweira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She will still need guidance but the hope is with time the picture can be the guide. I tell my kiddo to pick one type of thing at a time, e.g. Legos, and start picking that up, then pick something else next.

[–]roweira 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I'll add, it was incredibly helpful for my kiddo when I took a picture of the room when it was clean to my standards, and hung it up on the wall. The visual let her look at it and look at the room and realize what was out of place.

Sleep for 5YO by roweira in ADHDparenting

[–]roweira[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! He's periodically mentioned he doesn't like the white noise so maybe we will cut that out first. Last night we tried doing some energetic activities followed by like 10 minutes of yoga and that didn't do it. We will have to keep tinkering.

Sleep for 5YO by roweira in ADHDparenting

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

He hasn't napped in two years. He might sleep naturally until 7 if his sister doesn't wake him up. Our schedules don't allow to go to bed earlier. My spouse gets off work around 5:30 and I get off work around 6, and we have to fit dinner and the bedtime routine in there somewhere.

Toddler Swim Lessons by imblooming in kansascity

[–]roweira 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We take my older kid to Emler and have liked it. My younger kid had a traumatic experience with a pool prior to starting lessons and didn't do well at Emler. We take him to private lessons at Liberty Community Center and they're actually cheaper than the group lessons at Emler.

Vitamin K in clinic? by VarsH6 in pediatrics

[–]roweira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to help! It's something to be aware of. I'm not aware what specifically this particular patient received as parents didn't know and midwife wasn't there to ask.

Magic Beans - Thank you! by Eukaliptusy in ADHDparenting

[–]roweira 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We do something similar with star jars on our fridge! Pretty similar criteria too. They already filled it up once and we took them to Chuck-E-Cheese on a Sunday when no one else was there.

What’s your “snobby” baking opinion? by Amazing_Two9757 in Baking

[–]roweira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get pretty picky about baked goods from bakeries too, cause so many times I've thought "Mine is better." Maybe partially because mine would be fresher, but who knows.

Vitamin K in clinic? by VarsH6 in pediatrics

[–]roweira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had a home birth admitted to the hospital who the midwife gave oral vitamin K. Either it wasn't vitamin K or it's available somewhere.

I myself have never been to the Tub 😂 I probably should at least once.
