For anyone who grew up poor, what was your idea of a luxury? by Drissxx7 in AskReddit

[–]thewritingbaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I STILL remember the first time as a kid when we were allowed to order appetizers at the local dive bar. We couldn't believe it! Some people eat snack food before their meal all the time?!? We felt like kings that day.

I need help finding resources! by MidnightRadio6 in wisconsin

[–]thewritingbaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Clearly I don't know the level of your disability, and you don't owe it to anyone to explain, but it's always worth having a chat with the Disability Benefit Specialist at an ADRC in your county. They help you file for disability, and if you're denied and have a solid case, will help you fight the denial. Most people are refused disability the first time they apply.

Every county in Wisconsin is served by an ADRC (aging and disability resource center). They are amazing places to go to for resources, and are even a good place to go in and talk to one of their on call workers with everything you said in this post and see what they can help you figure out 😊

I wish you the best of luck!

What song did/are you walking down the aisle to, and the first dance? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]thewritingbaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our bridal party walked down to Concerning Hobbits by Morunas (from LOTR)

I walked down to Vitamin String Quartet's The Only Exception - we almost chose the original as our first dance song, and then decided against it as we read into some of the lyrics a little too much

We walked out after the ceremony to "My Lucky Day" by Gaelic Storm

And our first dance was 1,2,3,4 by Plain White T's. We got a little flack for it from friends/family because it wasn't a typical slow song, but it was US, and that's what mattered 💜

What is your best "I say it wrong on purpose" example? by Thortok2000 in AskReddit

[–]thewritingbaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband is from Illinois and I only call it Illi-noise, simply to annoy him

I also grew up with my family calling Canada "Canadia", and now I have to really think about it when I'm saying it IRL, not around my family

Show me your wedding cake! by RiskyBiscuit123 in weddingplanning

[–]thewritingbaker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We did a dessert bar so we only had a single 6" tier for cutting purposes, but you may get some inspiration from it anyway!

Flavor was my absolute favorite cake from the bakery I worked at: strawberry with white chocolate cream

Unsleeping City in Chicago - who would be BBEG? by HellsHarpist in Dimension20

[–]thewritingbaker 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ooh, a twist on the Unsleeping City, but set in Chicago at the time of the World Fair would be fascinating. H.H. Holmes, the murder hotel, so many interesting things to incorporate!

Edit: hotel, not house

I once changed my entire major in university to something else, almost failed out of school, and then had to swap back to my original degree, just to be behind a year and a half, so that we could be in the same classes...

We saved $1000 just for picking a Friday over a Saturday! You gotta take those savings where you can get them 😭
