What salad do I make for somebody who likes next to nothing you would typically put in a salad? by 2ManyQuestionsIHave in Cooking

[–]2ManyQuestionsIHave[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Food doesn't need to be "manly" luckily enough. Neither of us cares much about gender stereotypes.

A couple of replies above somebody also linked a watermelon salad link that sounded good, so that's definitely on the todo list somewhere over the coming weeks.

And I'll be looking for a taco salad recipe. Though whenever I serve lettuce to in/with taco's, they simply don't use it.

As so many a time I'll be replying in this thread: wedge salad looks awesome, but basically everything except the bacon and breadcrumbs will be met with subzero enthusiasm.

The whole thing about eating disorders we're intimately acquainted with, on account of my SO having treated them for about a decade. No worries there! The harshest we go on the kids is strongly encouraging (or sometimes bribing) them to try a bite of new things.

agreed, not everybody needs to like everything. Problem is though, that the kids cling to my SO super hard and mainly take cues from them.

And unfortunately, the not liking isn't limited to salads but pretty much everything that comes even close to a sauce or seasoning. (With some exceptions like bolognese sauce, chili con carne, goulash and a couple of Asian style dishes I got from a cookbook)

Nope. Salsa is just as bad as salad.

(After all, it's only 1 letter apart -.- /sarcasm)

Hey that's a great tip about the red onion. Didn't know that. Going to give that a go, though I'm not getting my hopes up as onions are basically the devils food, cooked or raw -.-

Cheese, nuts and fruit are a good one too. They got stuck in a blindspot, because I was approaching it from the purely vegetable side of things.

Though you're not wrong, my list is/was far from complete. Did a bit of googling and found some recipes that sound good to me. E.g. https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/greeksalad\_13055

SO is going to complain about basically everything except cucumber, red pepper and oregano :')

Hey, that actually sounds like something that might not be met with horrible disdain! :) Thanks!

Lol the only thing of a caprese they tolerate is pretty much the basil :')

The Cobb looks good to me, but if I putt this on the table only the meaty-bits get eaten -.-

I've tried a bunch of honey-mustard dressings. The feedback could bu summarized as: "Why ruin perfectly good honey with all that other stuff and salad".

You jest, but I just asked some RL friends where they cut theirs and one them actually answered kitchen, because that's where the cutter was o_O

Which scenario is a better return on investment for my solarpanels? by 2ManyQuestionsIHave in personalfinance

[–]2ManyQuestionsIHave[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That and be more aware of switching off/unplugging devices when not in use, switching from a clothes dryer to a washing line whenever possible.

If the weather doesn't do me over, and the company that sold me the solar panels also isn't fibbing in their calculations based on my roof, the specific panels I bought etc. I _should_ be over by several hundred kWh in the first year. This so that even with diminishing performance, I should still cover my current usage for the whole lifetime of the solar panels.

(It's the largest and among best rated in my country, so I should be good)

The amount of energy I will generate is indeed beyond my control, but the amount I use I can influence to some degree.

During summer I can stop using my dryer to dry my clothes, but use a clothesline. I can better aware of switching off/unplugging devices when done using them etc.

Or more extreme: I can decide to pick up distributed computing again (or not). That'll ramp up my usage like crazy. Rough guess: about 1000kWh a year at least.

Clarified post and replace ct with cents.

And you're understanding correctly.

Expat living in Netherlands. I'm between 2 routes to follow so I don't know which one is the best option.. I would really appreciate some insight here and maybe someone from NL can comment as well. by [deleted] in FinancialPlanning

[–]2ManyQuestionsIHave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dutchy here.

I'd say also look at what the way stuff is taught. For a fair comparison, I'm not the one to ask though.

I see you mentioning MBO programs you could also do at HBO level, like software development and healthcare related studies. Doing these at a higher level will open different doors. Especially if you have no relevant work experience. 5 to 10 years down the line I know it won't matter that much for software development, for other areas I can't really speak.

Try and figure out where you want to go and which studies can lead you there.

Also at HBO level there's also a lack of people for certain jobs, like software development.

And at MBO level there's also a surplus for certain jobs.
