    Cannoli

    Easy peasy way is to serve the filling in sugar cones Or make the filling, break up sugar cones and use as dippers
  2. You can’t control what people think. Also, in some situations, even if a person has a “legitimate” reason for not attending an event, the people at the event might not see it that way. If it was me, I would go and limit my interactions if need be. It could be an abnormally cool weekend and/or your could feel wonderful.
  3. How much of this mentality of “having the truth come out” has to do with your idea of sexual sin, @Scarlett? I get the feeling that given your conservative religion and the idea that pre and extra martial sex is sinful, that you might see this as some kind of punishment for that
  4. https://www.npr.org/2023/02/10/1156114384/u-s-shoots-down-high-altitude-object-over-alaska I picked what I assume is a Boardie fav for a link. 🥰 The U.S. shot down an object over Alaska. The government doesn't know yet what it was The U.S. military shot down a "high-altitude object" over Alaska within the last hour, said John Kirby, a spokesman for the White House National Security Council. The object was tracked over Alaska at an altitude of 40,000 feet over the past 24 hours, Kirby told reporters at the White House briefing. It was deemed to pose a "reasonable threat to the safety of civilian flights" and "out of an abundance of caution" Biden ordered it to be shot down at the recommendation of Pentagon leaders, Kirby said.
  5. I think neat and clean and plain are good enough. No shirts with messages or band names or cartoons, etc. But a clean dark Tshirt and jeans would be fine if that is all the teen has. I think it is more important to attend without the stress of buying new clothes or being uncomfortable in clothes he is not used to.
  6. I might be remembering this wrong…but it seems like every time you tried to leave, you ended up returning to your original job.
  7. So a father can’t invite someone over to see his baby for 6-12 weeks but the mother can? It should be a mutual decision, with either parent suggesting and if one isn’t ready or comfortable, then it’s a no.
  8. Yes, I posted that 3 hours ago. Along with a photo before the shots were fired
  9. The assassination attempt of Reagan did NOT happen at Ford’s Theater. It happened outside of the Washington Hilton, after a speech he gave at a union luncheon. The images of the attempt are iconic, and it is clearly outdoors and not at Ford’s. Reagan was most likely saved by SAIC Jerry Parr who shoved him into the presidential limo, otherwise he might have been shot in the head. The bullet that did hit him ricocheted off the limo.
  10. She was told by a moderator to start a new thread bc she bumped an older thread about this very topic.
  11. Did anyone see the footage of the aftermath? Let me see if I can link it: Ha-ha…just kidding! It was AF, not “A naval aviator”
  12. We used it for current events AND literature! Good night room. Good night moon. Good night Chinese Spy Balloon… Hopefully it will go slowly enough that we can use it for Five in a Row.
  13. It’s no big deal. It just escaped from a wet market. Everything is fine.
  14. I like both, but I like the gray blazer a little better. i like the contrast of the gray w/ black pants cute doggie!
  15. Nobody likes air bnb anymore. the rules and fees are insane
  16. What was the reason for 3 years of community college? Did she go full time every semester or ease into it for a few years? If she wasn’t able to do full time in CC, was it bc of the same issues she is having here? Regarding what is happening now…I think it’s better for students to be successful with less hours than fail or do poorly with more hours. This isnt a reflection of “believing” in her. It is a matter of timing and logistics. Get four As in 4 classes or get one B, four Cs and a D in six classes? Get the As and remain healthy and enthusiastic about school and life? Or get the other grades and be sick and burned-out. I would emphasis a slower pace to do everything she wants. If money is an issue…it will be an issue if she does poorly, too, from too many classes.
  17. Hard “no” on the non-drinking brother being a reasonable person! A reasonable person would not have gone looking for the person who put the bottles/cans back on his lawn…KNOWING THEY BELONGED TO HIS BROTHER. A reasonable person also would not have WANTED SOMEONE ELSE TO PICK UP AFTER HIS BROTHER. 🙄
  18. So I slept on this and I still think I’m absolutely right. If the thread was titled: Should my young adult child pick up beer cans that the DRUNK neighbor litters the neighborhood With as as he stumbles back and forth (WHILE DRUNK) to the mini-mart… then DUMP THOSE CANS ON DRUNK NEIGHBOR’S LAWN… Who, who has any inkling of preservation, would answer: “YES, GREAT IDEA!” ?
  19. Yeah, this doesn’t make sense. What is the ratio? Most NICUs are 2:1, sometimes 1:1…maaaaaybe 3:1 if the 3 are all feeders/growers and the nurse is very experienced/unit head. Heck, adult critical ICUs aren’t more than 3:1 it’s in the name INTENSIVE CARE… How is the unit set up? One big room or pods? Literally, WHERE was the NURSE? Where were other nurses? Other caregivers? Why didn’t the specialist go FIND THE NURSE once the baby was stable?

  21. That was a reckless and dangerous stunt. The reaction from the neighbors could have been violent. I can’t imagine he accomplished anything besides spreading animosity and calling unwanted attention to your family
  22. Depersonalization/derealization it can develop from trauma or drug use. it sounds like your is from trauma but people reading this who hear these symptoms from a drug user should take note
  23. Once you said no, come to our house, *to sick people* you signed up to be Florence Nightingale. They could have become sick to the point of incapacitation and you would have been providing transport to the ER or calling 911. You opened yourself up to a myriad of “need to care for sick people” scenarios. as for lightbulbs and career choice discussions…life’s to short to bicker over lightbulbs.
