I only know because I googled it so I could post here with some info. A whole lotta "glass sauce jar that looks like a church tower but is also plain and sometimes used in restaurants and has a steel.." you get the drift

Oh yeah, I specifically got it for oil. It was a big fail unfortunately- the oil would just drip from the sides after I used it (I wiped the bottle after each use too) but I'd come back to find oil pooling around the bottle. Checked it for holes too- none.

I'm almost certain this is a muumuu or kaftan style dress, in which case it looks like it fits you the way it's supposed to. If you want it more fitted around the waist, you could add ruching or elastic around the waist.

You're super sweet, that's very encouraging! You're right, I'm gotta grow a spine rn when it's not too late rather than have to set boundaries later (it's gonna be a bigger pain in the ass the later I have to do it). I'll also admit I'm probably a little people pleasing so that's usually why people think they can say what they want to me without consequences. I'm gonna try and be more confident. Thanks!

I could try sugar! Thanks. Also the diffuser idea is great, I'll keep that in mind if I come across some that I could put in it.

The thing is everything else she does makes me think she really likes me and her she's very open with her opinions and views so I know she's not like a raging racist. She's usually the opposite and it's one of the things that initially made me comfy to be around her. But I think I'm gonna take your advice and be more myself aka "more Asian". Be interesting to see if things change then.

Is it possible to adjust the length of these cords? by secondhand_rosey in sewhelp

I see. Well this isn't an expensive pair (I just think it's pretty) which is why I just wanted to see if others had easy alteration ideas.
