  • It is very common at the majority of hotels (in the US at least), that there is a daily free breakfast available to all guests in or near the lobby. It is buffet style and available within a time window that’s often on the earlier side. The quality varies some, but it’s normally on the cheap side. But for something that is included in the price of the room and gives you something warm and filling in the morning, it’s often good enough in my experience. Some that I’ve had were even notably good. Though there has been a couple hotels where the food was so limited in selection or poor enough in quality that I chose to go out for a hot breakfast instead.



  • I don’t think you’re wrong, but fairness where it is due, if you had a kid like Rory that was highly responsible, academically excelling, an active member of the community, and on track to go to an Ivy League school to do what she was passionate about… that doesn’t leave a lot of room or need to parent at that point. You won the parent lottery, congrats! And at 16, nearing adulthood, and already more generally mature than many in their 20s (if still a bit naive), it’s pretty normal to be letting otherwise well-behaving children start to become more independent and treating them as a young adult. That doesn’t necessarily mean treating them like a peer/sister, but also in fairness, they enjoy all the same things and each other’s company and they’re closer in age than the average mother and daughter and have only had each other as family for most of Rory’s life. There “friendship” does make it a struggle to actually parent and correct Rory on the odd occasion when she does actually need it, but it’s not all bad as an example.

    Emily is the Karen-in-chief of Connecticut. Wouldn’t surprised me if she didn’t establish her own mint of Gilmore bucks when the U.S. Treasury denied her demands to put Rory’s face on the 20. Rory would be on the Gilmore 20, Lorelai on the penny (which was meant as an insult, but Lorelai takes to mean she’s the lucky one), Richard’s strong profile on the quarter, and Emily herself on every other denomination like the queen she is.
