re: How long did it take you to know your spouse was marriage material? Study says 172 days
Posted by tigergal918 on 12/9/25 at 6:58 am to dyslexiateechur
My husband went home & told his mom after our first date (we were 15/16) that he could see himself marrying me. She laughed at him. 29 years later I think she was wrong…
re: How long does it take to put your Christmas up?
Posted by tigergal918 on 11/29/25 at 6:29 pm to LSUGUMBO
3-4 hours. 30 minutes to get things out, display in house, 2-3 hours for tree. Anything more than that I don’t have the energy for…
re: Do you eat your turkey and/or dressing with a bite of cranberries?

Yep for sure! And my cranberry sauce recipe has bourbon in it! Two birds with one stone…
re: Married folks — do you and your spouse keep separate checking accounts?
Posted by tigergal918 on 11/22/25 at 11:36 am to HoustonGumbeauxGuy
No we got married at 21, he was still in college & didn’t even have a bank account. We got back from our honeymoon with $750 to our name. Twenty-three years later I guess it’s working ok. But I handle 100% of our finances.

re: Need a rec for private dining in Baton Rouge
Posted by tigergal918 on 11/19/25 at 2:55 pm to CajunAlum Tiger Fan
From someone who hosts 6+ private large group meals a year in BR, here are my top suggestions:
Mansur's
Sullivans (you can use the Ringside area)
Juban's
There are others, but those can successfully handle large groups.

I only use mpix. A professional photographer recommended them to me years ago as its the consumer side of the professional printer she used.
re: Best Key Lime Pie in BR
Posted by tigergal918 on 11/17/25 at 4:01 pm to J_Bo
LA Lagniappe used to have a killer one...it's been a few years since I've been though. Key lime pie is one of my favorite desserts.
re: What is your Favorite Cake / Pie in Baton Rouge?
Posted by tigergal918 on 11/13/25 at 1:16 pm to Matt225
The Eye of the Tiger pie at Elsie's is one of the best things I've ever tried, but you never know when it's on the menu. Also, the bananas foster cheesecake at Southern Pearl is sinful. And honestly, everything I've ever had from the bakery at Oak Point grocery has been fantastic.
re: D1….Traction Sports…
Posted by tigergal918 on 11/10/25 at 1:32 pm to nicholastiger
Elite Training is who I would recommend. My daughter suffered back to back injuries (back/knee) her Junior year of softball. Her ortho, Dr. Burnham, is the sports medicine doctor there. She was able to rehab, then transition to sports focused rehab, then skills training all at the same facility under his watch. It was so good for her. She was able to avoid surgery and is now playing in college. Can't recommend them enough.
re: Who makes a nice, silver baby rattle?

I did a sterling baby cup with my daughters’ initials. We put velvet ribbon thru the handle & use it as a Christmas ornament now…just another idea.
re: What did you do for your first date with your SO?
Posted by tigergal918 on 10/31/25 at 12:29 pm to MrWalkingMan
We went to dinner, our high school football jamboree, and a movie afterwards. We were 15/16 and juniors in high school. Still going strong 29 years later...

We had a great experience at Black Sheep...the owner is from the Mandeville area. Love Chester Brunemeyers too and the vibe at Fighting Town Tavern is cool with great food.
re: What is your favorite whole bean coffee?
Posted by tigergal918 on 10/20/25 at 9:42 pm to calcotron
Lol, yep got my hopes up! We mix 1/2 Dark roast and 1/2 Americana and it’s pretty close to Evangeline.

Where are you still getting Community Evangeline blend?? I thought they discontinued it? It was our favorite!

re: Should Redheads be considered a minority?
Posted by tigergal918 on 10/9/25 at 9:02 pm to Sunnyvale
I have blonde hair & brown eyes and my husband has almost dark brown hair with brown eyes. Our youngest daughter has red hair with blue eyes, which is the rarest combination. We joke that she is one big recessive gene…

As a woman, if my husband did that, I'd react the same exact way. Don't talk to me, it's too late for that. In fact, I'd have probably left that night. If you've decided you want a divorce, it's tough to turn back from there. She got what she deserved...
I will disagree about the counseling, however, we've gone a couple of times (to a guy counselor that he found so it wouldn't be held against me) and it really helped. We just needed a mediator to help see each other's points of view. Going strong now at almost 23 years.

Haha, not as young as I'd like. Just made 44 and retiring at 60 is our goal.

Would that number change if I'm invested aggressively, as I have a healthy guaranteed pension?
