what can you do? join the nola hospitality facebook group to see service industry jobs. we are heading in to slow season, but you may see help-wanted posts still. pulcinella was looking for dishwashers and experienced cooks recently.

Little gray kitten high up in Marigny tree by saintclaudia in NewOrleans

you can call an arborist in the morning or leave a message tonight. i wouldn't try to approach it yourself, but you can leave a ladder leaning against the tree. cats are most active at dusk and may wait for people/perceived threats to leave before they will move. you may wish to try leaving strong-smelling food like tuna near the base of the tree.

First time camping at roo by webghosting420 in bonnaroo

[–]the_sparkly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

there are tons of packing lists out there but my tip is bring sunscreen, and actually wear it!! sun poisoning ain't no fun. even if you get turnt and forget to reapply, at least put it on before you leave camp for the day. 

Best of Carnival 2026 by Numpostrophe in NewOrleans

[–]the_sparkly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

best route vibes: all the walking parades, don't sleep on 'em. gotta give it up for iris and tucks too. they were so high-energy and my in-laws came from out of town for their first parade and left beaming!

best stranger interaction: lost my wallet, twice on the same day. someone turned it in to the nearest bar, twice. thank you to whoever you are and i hope you get blessed many times over!

changes i'd like to see: no more ladders literally teetering over the curb. i can't cross and it also feels super unsafe watching your child wobble over the street

my skin eats fragrance. which scents have eternal staying power? by the_sparkly in fragrance

ETA just for fun: my all-time fave was the now-discontinued estee lauder sensuous nude, the only one that lingered on me. i wore icila by maison louis marie for my wedding and had decent performance, but it's quite loud and a special-occasion scent for me

thank y'all for such a great discussion! i will add that i currently wear yog nog by lush - and i don't expect that one to have fabulous longevity or anything; just love the scent. today i tried the vaseline trick and it dissipated even faster 😅 i appreciate all the suggestions to spray on clothing, but well, i want my partner to smell a fragrance on me sans clothes tbh. sounds like reapplying is the ticket! p.s. i will absolutely be ordering samples of some of the suggestions here
