Protip, it's garlic scape time in a lot of the northern hemisphere. Or soon will be. Mayo (make your own even better) in a food processor (that you just make you own mayo in) with a bunch of garlic scapes makes everything amazing.

Thanks for the info! I will have to give garlic scape mayo a go. (Also apparently good for pesto, too, so that’s two fun new recipe twists in my near future)

limp_cheese posted:Wow, what a terrible person. She should know better than wanting to have sex with her husband she has been away from. Doesn't she know married people never have sex? Its like she has never listened to comedians. Plus everyone knows babies comes from storks, not loving. This is me reading way way more into it than is there, but: This seems to me to be be a super controlling/smothering helicopter mother who wants to be overly in her sweet innocent baby boys life well after they have grown up. Sure. But I would also posit that what she took offense at was the use of the word "gently caress". And the matter of fact way that a *gasp* woman would dare to be so brazen as to want and request sex. If the OP had coyly, softly and embarrassedly said something like "I am really sorry my dearest mother in law, but may we have an hour alone because ... we have to ... you know ... marital duty ... relations ... I am so sorry that this intrudes on your smothering time. We will try to get it over and done with as soon as possible." etc. Then MiL probably wouldn't have been as scandalized/disrespected. But that would have been insane. No grown woman needs to ask permission in her own home to gently caress her husband who has been away for a while. And any Mother in Law that does not respect that is the one who is being crude, disrespectful and a huge arsehole.

They're delicious, but for those who are keen on trying, they're also high in fibre so you'll be farting up a storm for a while. Like, a one-person bass section.

She doesn't strike me as one who wouldn't complain about being misinderstood and/or unjustly targeted.

AITA for not allowing my roommate's girlfriend to sleep in my room?quote:I (26M) live with my roommate "Chris" (28M). Chris and I went to the same college and were roommates. We got along well and discussed moving into an apartment together. We found an apartment that was responsibly priced. I pay slightly more in rent for my cat. I have been seeing my boyfriend(27M) since last year and he spends the night on the weekends. Chris's girlfriend spends most of her time at the apartment. How DARE you force me to stay around this disgusting slob of a human being!

I (23F) got pregnant with my friend's brother (32M) and I don't know how to tell her (24F)quote:We are lifelong friends, and on more than one occasion she (24F) told me (23F) that her brother (32M) was totally forbidden to me because she was afraid that a relationship of ours could ruin our friendship. Well, I respected that and I never looked at him with different eyes, I always saw him as an older brother. But about a year ago I moved into the same building as him and we started seeing each other more often. We became very close and what started as a new friendship ended in sex, and it wasn't just once, it became a routine that we had for months.

You want to gently caress this person and kiss them and stuff, but their bed and presumably body is nasty? I had a conservative upbringing and... I thought women had higher standards. I thought to be attractive to women you had to keep yourself clean, your nails trimmed and wash your bedsheets. Cause women don't like slobs. I thought I was tought that, although now that I think about it maybe that was library books that said that. But that was all a lie. All these years I've been washing my hands and shampooing my hair and cleaning my rear end wasted. To think of the hours I wasted applying deodorant, I could have been spending that time being unemployed and complaining about video games. The life I could have had.

Not exactly a relationship post, but I just love seeing a shiny spine! I was denied a promised, and heavily paid for, vacation at work. I quit because of it. My old boss is threatening to sue me. quote:So I worked for a mid sized company, 3k employees, until yesterday. I booked a vacation in January of this year, with approval from boss and HR. I paid for everything back in January. I informed my boss that if I need to cancel, he will need to give me 2 weeks notice so I can get the refund. I reminded him of this 17 days before my vacation was scheduled. His reply was that he did not see any reason to cancel and to have fun.

This title did not lead where I thought it would.

Lately i have been noticing them he has been getting a bit slimmer (he's a skinnier boy), and even though he's still very much at a healthy weight, i've been asking him to eat and work out more, so be could look stronger, broader and even more muscly etc. He always responds to it neutrally and says he tries (he does workout everyday).

Justin Godscock posted:All I'm going to say is I remember staying at a hotel that was hosting a major cheerleading competition for high schoolers (very long story but our first hotel lost the final day of our reservation so this was the only last-minute option). A weird one from Ask a Manager: coworker keeps interrupting my work and told me it’s “good practice” to keep myself focused quote:I have a coworker (Jane) who is a very nice person, if a bit socially clueless. That’s not unusual in our industry, but in this case it’s beginning to encroach on my work. It’s made worse by the fact that she seems to have latched on to me as a work friend. It’s starting to impact my focus, and I don’t know how to get past it. Update quote:By the time my letter was published, things had come to a head. After a “last straw” interruption, I asked Jane to please not speak to me at work unless it was about work, as I really need to concentrate. She then asked me for my personal number, so she could call me to chat sometimes. I didn’t want this, so I said that I’m really not interested in being social with people from work. This isn’t actually true, I have many work friends who I see outside of work, but I couldn’t think of anything else in the moment. She was obviously hurt by this and left a long message on my work voicemail about how people like me are depressing and a sign of what’s wrong with the world, etc.
