Just a hypothesis, but maybe because stormy weather makes people want to cook soup? Seriously! Lots of soups have kale in them!

That’s like when the weather started getting cooler this fall I went to try and get large shells for stuffed shells and they were sold out EVERYWHERE

Look everyone, this guy can afford eggs!

We don’t yet! Still very much early, but I think that’s the next step

We have been looking there! I have basically all of westerly and Chariho area saved on Zillow 😂

A house came up for sale in westerly (where we are looking) the other week and we were legitimately so excited. It was a small bungalow, needed a little updating but would have made a perfect starter home for us. It was also under 400k and seemed too good to be true. It was close enough to where we live now that I walked by to make sure we weren’t being house-catfished.

It was pending sale literally 24 hour later. Didn’t even make it to the open house.

Arcadia pizza has both on their menu so I guess not? I think the chicken cutlet is more of a traditional toasted “grinder” where as the FCS is on a more of a burger bun-type of bread.

Also the chicken cutlets IME are usually pounded thin where the FCS are not.

And you can go to the Mezza Luna across the street and get a great Italian meal while you wait!

Trying to explain to my dog that he doesn’t need his long walk today and we will do extra long walkies tomorrow..

Don't start sharing south county and drawing attention to it! We're fighting for our lives trying to find a home down here!

The electricity/heating oil companies beg to differ..

Knowing literally nothing about this author or her books and just observing, I get a lot of “pumpkin spiced latte” vibes.

People just like to shit on things that many women collectively have stated that they enjoy.

Oh 100%, at least in this case with some modifications you can slightly lower your monthly bill (by like, pennies) so at least there’s SOME impact to be felt. We’re all fucked, though lol

Yeah, I think a lot of the shock comes from the fact that suddenly their rate is higher when they haven’t changed any of their normal habits! Doesn’t mean they aren’t willing to make changes to save electricity (for example, I used to leave the above-stove light on at night as a nightlight and now I don’t).

Your point about making sure there isn’t some major factor using energy that didn’t exist before is a good suggestion, but I think most people are just surprised by how much their costs have changed when everything else has been a constant.

I live in-and love-Westerly. We have been here 2 years in an apartment close to downtown (our neighbors just moved btw so I know one apartment that may be advertised soon!) and have found a great sense of community here. I work in Narragansett and I’ll be honest, the commute blows. It would not be easy to commute daily around here without a car and even with a car it’s a drag—by Rhode Island Standards of course. 40 min commutes aren’t atypical for the rest of the USA, but I swear that taking Route 1 3x a week has taken years off of my life.

I’ve seen a fair amount od For Rent signs in the area and also across the River in Pawcatuck. I would expand my search to different sites, we found ours on Zillow 🤷🏼‍♀️ but check FB marketplace too

Yeah, but then you have to live in Wareham..

I am a bit worried about Nam Khong! I went to check their website the other day and I got a sense they were closed or being bought out by aPVD based restaurant. I didn’t get a chance to call/go to scope it out, hopefully that’s not the case!

Yes! Fully agreed on the shared experience. This is..totally the opposite but I remember last New Years Eve we were home watching the Miley Cyrus special and she started to have a wardrobe malfunction at one point and we were like “is her top falling off?” And it was just fun to get on Twitter (the only time Twitter is actually useful) and see others thinking/reacting to the same thing. Reminded me of the good old days!

Are you looking at graduate or undergraduate level? Graduate it is definitely possible depending on your focus area and degree type. I was able to get my MA with no additional debt through working as a TA/RA.

I gotta get to Jayd I keep only hearing great things

“You’ve got an automatic refill for AL coming up, would you like us to check if it’s in stock?”

Shouldn’t you be doing that anyway?

Between the campaign texts and CVS constantly texting me to remind me that my prescription needs to be filled in 3 weeks my phone has been blowing up for a month.

When I first read the title I thought he meant the Middle Of Nowhere Cafe in Richmond 😂

If you do this and get a membership to the URI pool you’ve got it all goin!

We put ours on the seat sofa under a blanket and the dog hasn’t left since..
