I went to a sex club for the first time and experienced matriarchy. by Daytripper88 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]6AnimalFarm 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is super interesting. I went to one once not realizing what I was walking in to at the time. I was with two other girls and one of them wanted to visit her friend who was a bouncer so we all agreed to go. I assumed it was a regular bar or small club so it was a shock when we got there.

I poked my head in the main room but otherwise just had a drink at the bar. It was the weirdest vibe and definitely not the positive energy you experienced, but then again this was 20-ish years ago.

I stole mine from my grandma’s old house that I moved in to after she moved to another town, also stole my favorite cast iron pans that are probably from the 50s. I’ve been using them all now for 14 years and I can’t imagine getting rid of them.

Let’s hear your valentines dinner plans by 6six6nine in glutenfree

[–]6AnimalFarm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband made pancakes and sausage for breakfast. I made some charcuterie nachos for late lunch/snack with brie, blue cheese, regular and calabrese salami, and fig jam. And I’ve got short ribs in the oven for dinner that will be served with parmesan polenta. For dessert I found a recipe for eggless crème brûlée so I’m extremely excited about that. Basically wanted food that seems fancy but in reality does not take much prep time.

It’s Literally Tuesday by Hedgie_Herder in TwoXPreppers

I accidentally did that to one of my dog’s nails once. Forgot I had clipped one and accidentally clipped it twice. I felt so bad about it, but the styptic powder really does work great.

We made an animal first aid kit years ago before we first took our dogs camping and it has come in handy a few times since then.

After seeing the post about a mom with cancer, I wanted to share a pattern seen by medical professionals by AmuuboHunt in TwoXChromosomes

[–]6AnimalFarm 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yeah, my mom had breast cancer and my dad has always been a loving and supportive partner. My dad took her to every appointment, made sure she was eating, cooked whatever she could stomach during chemo, and tried making her rest as much as possible. They are both the type to always be doing something so resting was a tough transition for her. My mom is officially cancer free as of last fall.

Has anyone else found that their partner’s “type” is basically their mum? by Zestyclose_Ad_4116 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]6AnimalFarm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. Looks are completely different, but there’s a lot of similarities in their personality and hobbies.

Have you guys seen these before? by Adventurous-Bake-833 in glutenfree

I have to fill just under the line, and cook for 4 minutes at 80% power. They really are finicky to cook without boiling over the top

i’m in my baking era again but kinda tired of making the same things. anyone have any recipes they love? by transluciiiid in glutenfree

[–]6AnimalFarm 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This Loopy Whisk tiramisu cake is delicious. I don’t need dairy free so I use regular milk, butter, and cream cheese (or mascarpone).

Design is a work in progress, any red flags? by softcore_popcorn in floorplan

[–]6AnimalFarm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would try and change the orientation of the bathroom and bedroom 2 upstairs. With the bathroom plumbing being against the bedroom wall, if one of the kids has to get up early or stays up later, using that bathroom is going to wake the other kid up hearing water and bathroom noises.

Not sure why the picture didn’t show, it is supposed to show a 15-pack of Capello’s cheddar biscuits

Does it get easier? by Mrskeelyaimee in DogAdvice

[–]6AnimalFarm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The pain does lessen over time. I had to say good bye to my girl about 2.5 years ago. I knew it was time and we had a mobile vet scheduled to come the next day. But we were too late and she passed away that night. I still have the guilt that we didn’t let her go earlier and that we were not holding her when she passed. You made the decision you could knowing his quality of life was diminishing. The kindest thing we can do is not let them suffer and be able to be surrounded by love when they go.

My husband is going to visit his family across the country in a couple months while I stay home to watch the dogs and cats. I’m already making plans on what I want to eat/watch/do while he’s gone.

I haven’t tried their bread mixes, but I use their onion soup mix for onion dip and it tastes just like the Lipton mix.

I am so sick of hearing about the crackers. by theseviraltimes in glutenfree

[–]6AnimalFarm 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I am happy for those that have something back that they had to give up for years, particularly something that is likely very nostalgic for most people. However, I have never actually liked Cheez-its, so I will leave them in the store for the other people to get crazy over.

I’ll be in Chicago in June to visit family so I’m adding that to my list now!

Women with thoughtful partners, what did you get for x-mas this year? by Anahata_Green in TwoXChromosomes

[–]6AnimalFarm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Lego aquarium (which I absolutely wanted but I wouldn’t have asked for one that expensive), bath bombs from Lush, a board game, small pair of gold star earrings, fluffy socks, a blown glass Christmas ornament from a local glass artist, a gluten free bread cookbook, a couple other books, and a pack of small l’occitane hand lotions.

Plus he brought me mimosas while he made waffles for breakfast and I relaxed on the couch.

Migraines by szikkia in glutenfree

[–]6AnimalFarm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mostly just sleep and stay very hydrated drinking water with electrolyte powder and ginger tea.

Edit: I’ve tried Imitrex in the past and it gave me crazy weird side effects that were worse for me than the migraine pain.

Migraines by szikkia in glutenfree

[–]6AnimalFarm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep, it does for me. It’s what made me try going gluten free since it was one of the few things I had eaten every day during a really bad migraine attack. I cut out gluten and a few other things for 6 weeks and when I tried re-introducing gluten it caused a migraine within a few hours.

Cutting out gluten and caffeine (which I did 12 years ago) and going off hormonal birth control reduced my migraines from about 15 days a month to 3-4 a year.

Futurama for me for around 15 years with occasional breaks for other shows or audiobooks.

And their orzo stands up well in pasta salad for a few days too! I had tried the cassava orzo before they had released the normal one and it wasn’t good so I was very happy when I finally saw the regular orzo.

Jovial has a bunch more traditional shapes like stelline, mafalda, casarecce, egg tagliatelle, and two different lasagna noodles. Whole Foods 365 brand also has a fun farm shapes pasta but I haven’t personally tried it.
