[quote]It says they have 2 other schools so I don’t think they are going to default yet. [/quote] They have schools across Ohio, Texas, Florida as well. Sounds like they just underestimated the trash of Baton Rouge. :lol:...

[quote]I actually like these better than most non-homemade tortillas. [/quote] These are the only brand I buy. I get the street taco/fajita size - they're 20 calories per. You don't even feel like you're eating low cal with something like that. [img]https://i.imgur.com/v9s0tcT.jpeg[/img]...

What a weird link. At least on the laptop it is. Anyway, they've always been private.. and they're young with a lot of life changes the past few years. Such is life. I think she's adorable....
We use our nice china just us two more than anything else involving guests. My dining room table seats 8, so I have 9 sets (in case any break).. But our family is larger than 9 when we all get together for holidays, so we don't bother with it. That said, I've used it so far for girls nights, ...
I forgot until just now this was my responsibility to do - so sorry it took me so long to spill the beans! Legumes of all kinds are welcome for our next cooking competition! I am in the Carrib-BEAN the week leading up to the 21st, [i]however[/i], I have no issue making my dish early if the 28t...

[quote]It’s still in the boxes from 11 years ago. [/quote] Oh man. I paid out of pocket for mine after the wedding since it wasn't gifted, and we use it for all special occasions at home + anytime guests come over. I was determined not to be that person too afraid to use my china. Most used ...

[quote] it was just too much more expensive than other nice hotels in the area. It’s not worth double the price of Windsor court[/quote] Exactly this. We tried to stay there last year, and it was significantly more expensive than Windsor Court for much less space. I don't know what the prices ...

Defrosted some “tandoori marinated” chicken from Sprouts and used one of those tikka masala simmer sauce jars. It’s not real Indian, but can’t beat how easy it is. Addicted to a mustard/vinegar/chive salad dressing I recently found and whipped up a salad to go with. [img]https://i.imgur.com/...
We switched from Google (Gmail, Google Meet, etc.) to Microsoft, and while I think Microsoft is a more robust product, we've run into a lot of performance issues and lag time. Biggest issue is that, even if you use the web version of Teams/Outlook/Sharepoint/etc., there's so much buffering/lag. ...
My friends and I must be ugly because I don't think we've ever even spoken to random men on trips much less get to the point of hooking up. :lol: Granted, we don't really go on the types of trips where we'd be meeting men nor do we stay in accommodations that lend themselves to us meeting anyone....
[quote]When I traveled for work, I avoided hotel bars. [/quote] Hotel bar culture is wild. :lol: I don't travel for work as much anymore, but I did the same as you. Take myself to a nice dinner, maybe check out a trendy cocktail bar where everyone is with their own partners, and go to bed. Pe...

I got a sectional custom made from Town and Country here in BR and it took [b]a year and a half [/b]to actually come, and it is the least comfortable sofa I've ever had. It is almost unbelievable how uncomfortable it is. My cheap closeout couches I bought for apartments were more comfortable....

I haven’t had one in probably 5 years, but I don’t see how they’re any worse if consumed in moderation than all the other shite people eat regularly and never think twice about. ...
