    Thanks for the tip. This child takes after me. The other two take after their dad and didn't need any help on ACT to score above 30.

    Parents of the Class of 2019

    DD announced her college decision over Christmas. We are now trying to figure out how to pay for it. She picked the most expensive state school on her potential list. She was only granted $5000 in loans. After the loan amount it estimated $22,000 per year. We went through this once already...

    Need cooking advise from across the pond.

    I was making a Paul Hollywood Recipe: pasteis de nata aka Portuguese tarts. I don't think I adjusted the measurements correctly. I didn't have whole milk but I used a combination of half and half and 1%. Regardless the custard set correctly but the pastry was under baked. It should also be...

    I am an American attempting a UK recipe. When he says full fat milk is he referring to what we would call whole milk in America or what we would call cream? My cream is 5% fat.

    Exactly. Some people hate the thought of a photo of themselves being posted. I think it is very important to respect that. The third person is probably not going to want to have her photo on there at all which is fine. Me, I'm an open book and have no shame. :teeth:

    Day 5 Magic Kingdom This is day 5 out 6. I am almost done. This was our Magic Kingdom day. As you may recall the day before when DD and I went to MK I refused to watch the opening show even though we didn't try to make it on time, even though we were right there.... well on this day we arrived...

    FROZEN DESSERT PARTY!!!!! At $80 a person this was a huge splurge for us but since the others were spending $180 for their US we went for it. DD is a huge, huge, huge Frozen fan. The original plan was to make it a complete Frozen day but we just didn't have it us to make it to HS for the Frozen...

    We went back to MK until around 3:30 before heading to Epcot. We had a SM fp but it was down so we got to pick any ride. DD picked Jungle Cruise. I know this is for food reviews. I am only mentioning it because a) It is very high on top of the list of what CAN be missed at MK b) We still had to...

    Because it turns out NotUrsula and I are from the same state. Now I've spread some local skating drama that shouldn't have happened. I have no one else to blame but myself.

    Need opinions: Teens sporting question

    I tried to message you privately as I imagine most people will not care about my questions but I could not figure out how to do it. What is a Synchro Liaison? Who is normally chosen? Is this person from USFS? We also questioned the strategy of having only 12 members on the team. It seems to...

    Wow have I ever started a conversation! :flower1: I still haven't been able to go through all the responses. Sometimes people need tough love but I do feel like my child has been betrayed by her family. This has been something she has been committed to for a long time. She is actually handling...
