Finally worked up the courage to use the ruffler foot!

I loathe gathering and was looking at doing a lot of it in my latest project. Then I remembered that wacky looking foot that came in a box a slant shank feet from Ebay. Behold the Ruffler Foot! It works perfectly and you can set the depth of the ruffle as well as the ruffles per stitches as well and the stitches per inch on the machine. I gave the gears of the ruffler foot a drop of oil to get them moving smoothly and BOOM, I was making perfect ruffles on my Singer 301.

Guerlain Vetiver frosted/ribbed bottle, what flanker is it?

I own a partial bottle of Guerlain Vetiver in the ribbed/frosted bottle. I'm seeing that 3 EDT flankers were released in this bottle style.

-Eau Glacee

-Frozen

-Sport

The bottle simply says "Vetiver" and the juice is pale green. How do I know which version I have? or do I have to the original Vetiver in the ribbed bottle? I do not own the original Vetiver to compare it to.

I've read the descriptions of the flankers in Fragrantica but it's not clearly one over the others.

Amex auto pay making account positive.

I just had a Amex statement balance auto pay go through for more than my balance making the Amex account go positive by $9.10. I noticed this because YNAB flagged it as an underfunded credit card payment and $9.10 in my Ready to Assign and cinfused the heck out of me.

I've had my Amex go positive before when I got the Amex sign in bonus and my balance was under the amount of my balance and I know YNAB treats the account like a checking account in that situation. I had not recently redeemed any cash back on the account and when I look at the Amex statement it looks like a regular autopay transaction but the account is now positive the same as in Ynab. It's also not a refund for a returned item and I don't see any transactions that match $9.10 in Ynab or Amex ledger.

Anyone seen this before?

What are your thoughts on Ramit Sethi's philosophy and how it relates to YNAB principles?

I think his central idea of "spend money on the things that truly matter to you personally, Your Rich Life, and cut ruthlessly on the things that don't contribute to that life" is very compatible with the YNAB idea of Spendfullness. I think it's unfortunate that Sethi is anti budget. Extremely detailed and mindful budgeting seems essential to executing the spending/cutting ruthlessly process. How do we bring Ramit over to the YNAB cult?
