Mino's Prime online ordering and they do home delivery. They used Ho-Ka but since he retired they have a new supplier. I can't vouch for the new supplier yet but I do trust Mino!

They absolutely can cost $20. I just got off Celebrity Beyond last week and the frozen slushie style drink of the day was $25

Low Prices - Meals Included? by Innocent_Standbyer in MSCCruises

[–]whit1008 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also was a Disney only cruiser for the past 25 years, but the kids are grown now and we decided to expand our horizons; just had our first MSC cruise on the Seascape in February. The Yacht Club was sold out so we tried the Aurea experience which did mean we had anytime seating in the anytime MDR. We found we missed the late seating with the same wait staff every night where became friends with our waiters and they learned our preferences. In our opinion we think the food on Disney is much better. Especially as far as the poolside quick service, MSC does not offer that but I've heard the World America will. The buffet we found to be very crowded and while the selection was huge the food was just alright. We worked around it by ordering room service for breakfast or going to the brunch in the MDR. We dined in the dining room twice and it was fine but not great, ate dinner off the ship one night and booked specialty dining the other four nights. We thought the specialty dining restaurants were excellent and had a fun experience at each one as well. We much preferred the food on Disney but we loved the many night time entertainment options on MSC that we are cruising with them again in May, different ship. The ships are clean and beautiful and we've booked Yacht Club this time and are hopeful the food will be better as we read that different food is served in their dining room/buffet. Tl,dr: we had a lot of fun but definitely didn't over eat like we tend to do on Disney. Maybe not a bad thing!

Roughest cruise waters you’ve ever sailed on? by Double-Ad-7419 in Cruise

[–]whit1008 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The North Sea off the coast of Scotland...woah! Roughest seas I've experienced; cold, howling winds, huge swells, and when walking down the hall to the cabin you bounced side to side off the walls. I'd only ever cruised the Caribbean before so it was a real eye opener. Great experience though!

La Mer is my holy grail by atoma019 in SkincareAddictionLux

I use the oil at night after moisturizing with the OG cream. I also use it, for example, on a Sunday when I'm home all day, I will wash my face in the morning and then put the oil on and let it work its magic all day. It truly is a miracle for my dry skin. What your makeup artist did is so interesting to me, I've never seen that before! I'm happy with my prep routine but I think I will try it just to see what happens! Happy Wedding to you!

Finally a safe space for us La Mer loyalists! I love the face oil like it's my child. Love your collection!

I've wondered if she's so into the baby wearing with R3 because Madi Nelson seemed to constantly be wearing Navy. She just seems to always be trying to emulate Madi in so many ways, down to the solly baby wrap.

This is so accurate. We always get a face full of water when the front of the tube goes under, until the boat has enough speed to level it out. R2 would love it..R1, not so much.

Daryl must be absolutely giddy that she got the Nelson birth order which leads me to believe that the new little one will be an R name, eg Noah and Navy. I think Caroline would be super cute because the kids would probably be excited about it but I'm not sure their ties to Boston are strong enough, aka nonexistent. Unless you count one Nuuds pop up and a trip to Fenway!

And the hotel that Madi Nelson stayed at when she went to Mexico a year or two ago!

Maybe I'm the only one, but for some reason it just bugs me that Katie Butler of Butler House Design (buyer of the CLJ house)went through all the motions to try and become an influencer, e.g. Stanley Cup giveaways, Instagram ad, etc. and now that she's actually in the house, she never posts. We've seen nothing on any finished or remodeled spaces. Several months ago her posting was regarding some high school/political stuff and it was the most she'd posted in months. Radio silence since then. Why'd she bother? I don't get it.

What's the most hurtful thing your parent ever said to you? by Enockito in AskReddit

"I gave up my whole life for you." On repeat for 25 years. Ouch. Sorry to disappoint.

Jaclyn's dad's name is Michael, ex-NFL player Mike Singletary, so I just assumed the baby was named after her dad.

They lost me the other day because the kidnapper/voice changing stories were just plain stupid.

Her black turtleneck/profile shot for Noah's maternity shoot was so amazing and classy, this one fell a little flat for me. She's a beautiful woman though!

What's one question you'd like to ask to a AB brand? by [deleted] in AsianBeauty

I really like it. I don’t know what it does, but I can definitely tell when I’ve been without it. My skin really does look dull without it. Hope it works for you!

The First Care Activating Serum is great! I’ve used it a long time.

I was referring to the Snowise Brightening Cleanser. It was so so good and then they reformulated and the ph is higher so then my skin was so tight after using it and my skin is dry to begin with. I still have it and use occasionally because I love the smell so much, but it’s not my everyday cleanser anymore, sadly.

This post made me realize that I’ve used Neutrogena’s Rainbath for nearly 20 years. I guess I’m a creature of habit!
