  1. We’ve tried that style and they didn’t work any better and he doesn’t like wearing shorts under his pants!
  2. I have a boy who struggles with this! He’s not super thin or particularly heavy but does have a booty. I’d love for him to not be messing with his undies so much. We’ve tried various Walmart varieties and he prefers tightie whitie varieties. He at this point needs a bigger size at least but I wondered if there was a better brand worth the extra $$? He’s 9 for the record.
  3. I guess I have 5 pair and do wear birkenstocks also. The leather is excellent quality. I even have a silver pair I bought discounted (they do occasionally or sell returns) and they haven't flaked or anything like I thought they would. I think my Mary Janes and sandals have fared better than the ballerina ones due to how they are sewn along the edges.
  4. I really like soft star shoes. Handmade in Oregon with vibram soles. Kids and adults. You might try ebay for used ones. They last forever, seriously!
  5. I've been quite happy with these and my ears are really hard to fit. They are also less than $30! https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01M7TROBF/ref=ya_aw_oh_bia_dp?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  6. Soft star shoes Mary Janes are pretty roomy and loose in the toe area. Leather or vegan leather choices.
  7. My parents have hair a set for at least 13 years I think. We just bought a used one (cause they're $3000 at retail depending on options) on Craigslist and it's in great shape. The model we got (same as my parents the Reno cause it has an adjustable headrest) will allow you to replace a foam layer inside if needed. All of our chairs are about at that point. We plan on having the chair forever. We paid $600 for ours used. It's especially great since they come in sizes (perfect actually for my very tall husband).
  8. I have a bob and super thick hair and the stacking kind of makes it poofier in the back. Depending on how thick your hair is you could get an undercut in the back. It's what I do. I have had designs put in it but now don't and just have it faded up. Generally no one knows I have it because my hair is too short for it to be in a ponytail.
  9. I did it. I really just had bug problems which had nothing to do with the straw. Squash bugs and tomato horn worms. The plants grew great.
  10. I would do undies under the pull-up for a bit. It's what I did. The kid feels wet and the sheets don't get wet. Win win.
  11. We've had a soft one and now own a hard one. Either way, I double bag in large trash bags. They have both let water in (crazy rainstorm with the hard one) but the trash bags kept everything dry.
  12. A blogger I follow just recently talked about sunscreen likes (she had some pre skin cancer a while back). She mentioned powdered sunscreen which I thought was interesting. Here's her link (great recipes too). Melskitchencafe.com
  13. No but we're intrigued. My husband does have a purple pillow and it's helped him sleep better despite neck/shoulder pain.
  14. Check out the simplified planner by Emily Ley. I love mine!
  15. Disney photographers will take photos with your camera for free (their service is awesome and we did it once when we spent two weeks in a row there). We are Florida residents so the Disney weekday only annual pass is so inexpensive. We are military and get off site condos through Afvc pub.com for $400 per week (sometimes they do buy 1 week get 1 free and have other sales). We spent 5 weeks at Disney the year we had annual passes!
  16. 30% off a toy or game (includes Legos!) at Barnes and noble today. It let me do more than one transaction with the discount - maybe because there isn't a code?
  17. Grandmas stain spray got out some kind of greasy stain on a dress (it was huge and didn't come out with a tide wash). I got mine at Walmart. It might also be in a stick or bar but it's supposed to be awesome stuff!
  18. This one is a very generic recipe and also low in sugar (I use honey and no raisins!). http://www.lynnskitchenadventures.com/2009/02/baked-oatmeal.html We like lots of the other baked oatmeal recipes on her site too! Peanut butter, peaches and cream, strawberries and cream, double chocolate, cinnamon roll (with a cream cheese icing instead of her drizzle).
  19. Bosch makes a stainless bowl too I believe. I loved my Bosch before we had to go gluten free for my celiac son. I didn't love it for the one loaf wetter gluten free doughs I was making so I sold it and bought a breville (I'd had and killed a kitchen aid before the Bosch). So far so good for the breville though I don't use it gobs as we just don't eat bread the way we used to!
  20. Maybe the agency? It's a series of at least 3. I also started reading Mary Higgins Clark at her age but I haven't read her new stuff. Oh and a series that was a is for ___, b is for ____.
  21. I avoided it for a while because of the cost, but better batter flour really is phenomenal. Cookies were sandy until I started using it. I can use all of my old favorite recipes with better batter (though I haven't subbed it in yeast recipes). You cannot use it in pancakes though because of the xantham gum. For pancakes and sometimes half and half with better batter I use a King Arthur blend I make up with bobs red mill flours (the recipe is in King Arthur's gluten free pizza dough recipe).
  22. We are Between Charleston and Savannah and almost all of the county is without power. We evacuated to inland GA and have no idea when we will be allowed back in. I want to go home but I'd also like power so I guess I'll stay. Someone took a video through the neighborhood and it fared well and our house looks good from the front at least so I'm thankful for that!
  23. I don't have tieks but I love soft star shoes! They are handmade in Oregon I think and you can customize them in color. They are a minimalist shoe so no arch support. All the ones I have are still amazing 2-3 years later - even my metallic pair!
  24. There are tons of Zumba videos on YouTube. If you have some favorite upbeat songs, search that song name plus Zumba then dance along. Part of the hard part of Zumba is learning the song as well as the choreo.
