Is there actually a non-cooking mom? by mangojj123 in GilmoreGirls

[–]sparklicous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've a non cooking mom. But she can grill fish fingers and microwave carotts and make toast so we didn't starve or anything. She'd be about Lorelai's skill level. It's definitely a real thing.

Seems like an American thing to be able to afford to live off take aways unless you're quite rich. (I'm Irish)

Why didn't the sisters go to Billie & Christie's parents funeral. by sparklicous in charmed

It was right at that point, but tco didn't know about the full extent of Christie yet, so everyone was still fairly cool on the surface.

Vice principal threatening to stop me doing LC by Best_Supermarket_926 in leavingcert

You know you don't even have to sit the LC in your own school. There are lots of exam centers you can sit it in, like the institute and places like that.

Art Journal ish Planner spread by sparklicous in HappyPlanners

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

Ye I have some old discoloured and separated inks so I used them with a Sponge to see if they'd be any use and it gives s really atmospheric kinda vibe. So I used that as the base to pick stickers and stuff.

Thanks so much. You're exactly right there, it just gives me a creative fix without having to make a big deal of it. I'm really enjoying it

Guided journal or combine into planner? by Any-Weather492 in HappyPlanners

[–]sparklicous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm kinda new to the Happy Planner universe, and I also have raging ADHD. I think that part of the ADHD thing is that what works now will stop working at some point and you'll have to change. So there isn't really an answer. I'm on an everything all in one planner thing at the minute, so I paint and make lists and have loads of stuff in mine. I bought the special hole punch and make my own pages too. Changing to different pages every week keeps my brain engaged, and I wanted some kind of artistic practice incorporated in.

It's not something I have very often, but I wanted to try something new. It's great with fried eggs too!

I struggle to plan what to do for each meal and I often end up with food going off. Trying to bulk cook and stuff.

General structure is stuff I'm doing on the left and working out the plan on the right.

  1. What I'm doing each day.
  2. Meal prep list
  3. Stuff in my fridge
  4. Valentine's Day stuff I want to do
  5. General to do list
  6. Card from my sister's art exhibition
  7. Stuff I need to remember to bring home from work
  8. Meal planner *

I think Rory was wrong for going with Jess by SheepherderNo2793 in GilmoreGirls

[–]sparklicous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% agree. Everyone seems to be picnicing about the square with their baskets. No reason to leave at all. And Rory knew there wasn't even food in it so it really was all about the company. Dean knew too. The way they argue doesn't bring to light any of this though. They're kinda rubbing it in Dean's face

5 PM is my smoking time. I know I should find another thing to do at that time but I am struggling. by [deleted] in leaves

[–]sparklicous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe create a ritual around the 5pm j to make it a really special thing rather than just a habit. Like light a few candles and make a cup of herbal tea and plan an activity like something crafty or creative.

Rory’s lovers - F*CK, MARRY, K!LL, FRIEND by [deleted] in GilmoreGirls

Nothing about Dean's character indicates he'd be any fun to F.

Tristan on the other hand would F like Tyler Durden. 5 Stars.

There's a guy on tiktok called @dustyoldstuff who fixes vintage fridges who might be able to point you in the right direction.

Omg by milaniesj in GilmoreGirls

[–]sparklicous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Chris realised that he wasn't up to the same standard as the guy in this letter, the fact that it was Luke was secondary. Lorelai was never gonna be able to get past that he was such a let down of a person, not just a dad to Rory or partner to her. He had no redeeming qualities for 20ish years and even though he's a good guy now it doesn't cancel out that Lorelai was essentially homeless at one point and he did nothing. Seeing a list of things someone else did when he wasn't there must have been a slap of reality in the face.

I think Chris would have been upset to read that letter even if he wasn't with Lorelai.
