Is the wedding in actual Palm Beach, like on the island? If so, this is nowhere near formal enough. You need a more structured, formal fabric and silhouette. I would avoid black in South Florida in general - I think you’ll stand out and not in a good way! You can still go for a minimalist look if the fabric and cut is sophisticated and high quality.

Consider looking at brands like Staud, Dessy, Reformation, Reiss, ALC. Saks often has great sales on gowns where you can score at very reasonable prices. Few Moda also has good options. Revolve may have some, too.

The study species breast milk, though, which is not the same as breastfeeding. Plenty of babies are fed only breast milk exclusively via bottle through mother pumping. I skimmed, but didn’t see the authors address this directly - so is it the breast milk or the act of nursing that is driving these results I wonder?

With this one, by the time they discovered the issues with the arches, it seemed too late to make major changes. I would love for an architect to weigh in on this discussion because I remember seeing a comment elsewhere by an architect who said that these issues should/would have been caught much earlier in the design phase by a more skilled architect.

I also love SPPH, but they are pretty expensive compared to others. That said, they are incredibly knowledgeable and understanding, esp Dr. Eric who owns the practice.

Almond extract is what gives birthday cake flavor its flavor. Like birthday cake flavored ice cream, etc and traditional white birthday cakes including funfetti get that flavor from almond extract.

Small Hours, St Genevieve, Troubadour, and Milly’s.

I find the wedding painters doing one big painting a bit tacky. But what is lovely to have is a watercolor painter who can do quick guest portraits and a few scene paintings with a looser look. Makes for amazing guest favors. A few scenes like of venue and landscapes keeps the sentimentality but is less in your face when used as art in the home.

No. Cute for a dog, though.

Alma, Tilia, and The Kenwood Restaurant would suit your needs quite well. Mill Valley Kitchen is not quite as interesting food wise, but is a very comfortable dining environment for older people.

The author wrote about being confronted between her values and reality. That is what I referenced.

KaNGkyebin

I can only imagine how painful it is to be confronted by incompatibility between your values and the reality of some situations. And, she is not a psychologist and children aren’t diagnosed with psychopathy. The precursor would be oppositional defiant disorder, which I agree this adolescent should have been evaluated for. The article doesn’t mention a clear history of violence or harmful manipulative behavior, but access to that info with juveniles is often restricted. It does seem like something a social worker should take into consideration when determining foster placements. Our system is so broken and underfunded.

Well, the Federers name dropped Andy in their hall of fame speeches literally last week. He was the only other player mentioned. I think it’s all in good fun!

Dolly Parton’s America!

In the US, maybe. Plenty of places in Europe would be serving after dinner coffee at 10 with dancing until 2-3 am.

Cool, you do you. But OP wasn’t asking about that or about anything related to league costs or friendships. What works for you or kids in your life is not universal.

KaNGkyebin

This is not what OP asked. Leave the judgment at home!

Agree to disagree! For a big budget formal wedding it would be a surprise to me. Fine to feel differently, though!

KaNGkyebin

It would be a no for me, primarily because it will feel to guests as though you have prioritized aesthetic decisions over guest comfort. If I am a guest at a black tie / formal event and sitting on a school bus and then get off to a ceremony with amazing floral displays, it feels like I’m an afterthought compared to pictures. In my experience guests remember how you make them feel at a wedding!

Portugal has lots of these. Check out Quinta de Conceição… I think they can accommodate up to 30 or so? Amazing historic building and grounds including pool and tennis court.

We went with something that tied her to me day of - a necklace from the same fine jewelry line of my earrings for the ceremony. The goal was to create new heirlooms with a story.

It was very well received, but, truthfully I think nothing meant more to her than a really heartfelt, personal thank you note I wrote to accompany the gift.

KaNGkyebin

Agreed. We also painted our nursery yellow and I wanted it buttery but cheerful (and not in the wheat/tan family). Did a custom mix of Benjamin Moore with 75% Birdhouse and 25% Swiss Coffee and it’s perfect!

Makes me think of Anne of Greene Gables series and where she went to university! I love how it feels both classic and unexpected. Plus, it’s easy to spell.

Brow Chic on Selby and Snelling in St Paul! I love booking with Beck in particular, but they are all great. Bonus for being a cute intersection with lots of little shops, restaurants, things to pop into before or after your appt!

All good! Postpartum experiences of all kinds need more attention and education :)

FYI, postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, and postpartum psychosis are distinct diagnoses and experiences! PPD is the most well-known and diagnosed, and is a pretty common experience. Postpartum psychosis is quite rare and is the main diagnosis of discussion in this criminal case.
