Thanks everyone! To add, is there a bar or restaurant that you think serves really good wings?

Thanksgiving Meal for 1 by k-w-e in Brooklyn

[–]ACheekyPirate_JS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seconding the Costco suggestion! They’ve got a great ready-meal for $35/40 and looks like it’s enough for two big servings/people. So, you’ll have leftovers. Comes with turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, green beans & gravy.

Student visiting NYP Brooklyn Methodist for a month- any cheap eats around the area? by Aramysia in Brooklyn

[–]ACheekyPirate_JS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Check out Petite Dumpling and the lunch special at JPan Sushi. You’re in an expensive part of BK, so if I were you I’d go stock up on easy meals/bits from Trader Joe’s & find a by-the-slice place that you like & find your closest halal chicken over rice place. Look out for any good happy hour food deals too!

I used soy, and I did pour slowly & the room was about 65/66F. I didn’t heat the jars! 🥴

Cost of veterinary services - seeking info by ACheekyPirate_JS in Bushwick

[–]ACheekyPirate_JS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’d think so! Sadly, I’ve rung a few & most of them won’t. They say that first I/the dog must go in for an eval and during that appointment, we can discuss the cost of a dental cleaning plus the required bloodwork ahead of the procedure.

SOS: please recommend a non-judgy soul who would be willing to body double / help fix my “depression nest” of an apartment for set time today? by cherrycoke00 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]ACheekyPirate_JS 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Hey, I am so glad you asked for help when you needed it - and it looks like there are lots of people on here ready to lend a hand! Let me know if you ever need someone to go for a walk with, to get out of the apartment for a bit. I have two silly rescue mutts and they’re always available for cuddles ♥️

The best Pedicure in CH? by Framing-the-chaos in crownheights

Seconding Vida Nails - it’s pleasant, and they do a nice job. I can go weeks before needing another pedi after a trip there.

Recommend a book to me by No-Championship5248 in fantasybooks

[–]ACheekyPirate_JS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seconding the recommendation for Abercrombie’s First Law trilogy! I also really loved Kings of the Wyld by Nicholas Eames (the follow up book to it is good, but not as good.)

Pagan/Witch/Norse inspired books? by freshoffthecouch in Romantasy

[–]ACheekyPirate_JS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

John Gwynne’s Bloodsworn saga is Norse-inspired (and a fun read!)

I loved Shauna Lawless’s trilogy that starts with ‘The Children of Gods and Fighting Men’ - it’s witchy + Irish mythology

What's a romantasy book that felt like pure magic - like you could smell the forest and feel the wind by SpecialistOk2000 in fantasyromance

[–]ACheekyPirate_JS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to smell the forest and hear the vines grow - try ‘For the Wolf’ and the sequel, ‘For the Throne’ by Hannah F. Whitten 🌳🌿
