Hotel recs in Philly

Posted by MissTiger91 on 1/7/24 at 1:52 pm
We’ll be there for the long Presidents’ Day weekend and want to see all the historic stuff (Liberty bell, Independence Hall) as well as the Battleship NJ. What are your hotel recommendations? We’re Hilton Honors members but also enjoy boutique hotels. Budget is $400/night. Thanks!...

re: Any Pen lovers on OT?

I think it’s viscosity. I keep a few Lamy Safaris that I dedicate to sparkly inks, so I’m not heartbroken if they get hopelessly clogged. ...

I would get some samples of bottled ink to see what you like. Personally I like Iroshizuku, Monteverde, and Diamine inks, they behave well in all of my pens. Online retailers Goulet Pens and Vanness will let you get sample sizes (2-3 ml) of just about any ink....

I like both Lamy and Kaweco, good German engineering. The Lamy 2000 (fountain pen) is one of my favorites. Papier Plume in the French Quarter has a nice selection of pens, paper, and ink. I always stop by when I’m in town....

New Orleans airport

How bad is it these days? I have a 1:00 pm flight out on a Tuesday and will be returning a rental car. So how early do I need to get to the airport? Thanks!...

We’re interested in visiting upstate NY’s Finger Lakes region and would like recommendations. We’ll be traveling in mid-October and have a week. We enjoy hiking, wineries, shopping, eating, enjoying nature. I realize that area is large and spread out, so please help me narrow it down. What areas hav...

Question for DC Metro riders

Posted by MissTiger91 on 4/19/23 at 6:54 pm
Metro Noob here. Last week when I exited the Metro at Crystal City, my card (app) wouldn’t scan. I looked down and the gate was open so I walked through. Now I keep getting notifications that my trip is still “in progress”. How do I fix this or will this prevent me from scanning in the next time I r...

re: Meal Prep help!

Posted by MissTiger91 on 2/2/23 at 8:36 am
Google sheet pan meals. They're easy to fix, easy to clean up. Do 2 sheet pans and you have several meals already prepped. It's just a protein and veggies. My go-to is salmon on one side of the pan and broccoli and peppers on the other. Cook at 400 for 20 mins. This is perfect for chicken thighs or ...
We were hiking noobs in Yellowstone. Walking along a trail when about 50 yards ahead of us a moose pops out. We froze and started taking pics, we couldn't believe our great luck. Then her twin babies came out of the shrubs behind her. We didn't make a sound or move and they just walked on. But when ...

Love it! The scenery is breathtaking. I read the books when I was in junior high and that lead to me wanting to become a veterinarian. Then I realized I had to take Organic Chemistry :lol:...

re: Healthy dinners is tough

Posted by MissTiger91 on 1/6/23 at 9:20 am
I keep lists on the fridge of proteins, veggies, and whole grains that we like. I always have those foods on the grocery list, so for dinner I just mix and match what I'm feeling like. Veggies are roasted or steamed and meats are grilled, broiled or baked. I always make enough for dinner and 2 lunch...
Following for inspiration. Last year I lost 47 lbs through whole food diet and consistent exercise. Put on 7 lbs through holiday and travel eating. I'm not beating myself up for it, just getting back in the groove. For me, the mental aspect of this journey has been huge. In prior weight loss atte...
