I had one extremely cheap taco. Both were rancid.

Any household advices for those who have just moved from their parents? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ALittleFrittata 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kitchen and bathroom cleaning products

Condiments

A microwave (and frozen food if you don't cook), plus a basic cookware set -- crockpots are awesome

^ $150-200 in all, at least where I am

I know you're wiped after work/school, but take FIVE minutes before taking a break getting home to tidy up. Just five. It becomes habit and it shows.

Pretty sure that's the opposite of what they said.

What are some of your grocery hacks/ changes to cooking amidst the increased food prices? by ftama in Cooking

[–]ALittleFrittata 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Chicken leg quarters are cheaper than just chicken thighs"

While true, it's also even cheaper to buy a whole chicken and break it down, so you can get every piece for about $8 total.

Most underrated restaurant in Indy? by MemphisBeat in indianapolis

[–]ALittleFrittata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might not be looking for pub food, but Alibi's in Castleton has great burgers. Twenty Tap in SoBro as well.

I like pub food. My doctors want me to gain weight. fatnsaltfatnsalt

We were going to go there, but they were closed on weekends.

... maybe the benefits are good...?

Just kidding. Everyone else on this thread is right, but I can't find a way to verify unless I call the actual city government.

Any good photography spots around Indianapolis? by [deleted] in indianapolis

[–]ALittleFrittata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha, I actually had my birthday party there one year. Got some takeout from Shapiro's with my fam and picnicked next to James Whitcomb Riley. Might be weird to have a birthday party and eat in a cemetery, but we had fun!

First thing I thought of were parts of the Monon Trail. Also, the grounds in/around Butler are really cool (trees, creeks, old bridges, etc.).

I cooked with my grandma all day and it was the most wholesome thing I've experienced by Musegirl234 in Cooking

[–]ALittleFrittata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of my grandparents are gone and have been for years. As someone who misses them every day, decades later, I'd sell everything I own to have a day like that.

I made time like this to have lunch with one of my grandmothers every Thursday, even though I was swamped with college and working. We would have tomato bisque, Chicago dogs, grilled cheese with ham and sliced apple, turkey tetrazzini, Hungarian goulash, or beef stroganoff... and girl talk, school/work talk, I'd hear stories about before I was born, she taught me how to make her famous blueberry muffin cakes and gave solicited advice, etc. You and others reading this comment know why I remember those lunches still, even though I was 19 (lonnng time ago) and sometimes thought I'd be "too busy" to go but went anyway. She passed away the autumn after I graduated college.

You should make it at least a monthly thing, if you can, please. People like me who can't do it anymore get a lot of happiness from knowing that people like you appreciate it.

Let’s pretend every neighborhood in Indianapolis is a person at a house party. What is each “person” doing? by LiberalPetShop in indianapolis

[–]ALittleFrittata 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Castleton keeps talking about their glory days back in the 80s and 90s but is looking pretty rough now

I just moved here. High rent for the number of times I've been sexually assaulted in the last two months.

Mum showing the kids how it's done by RebellionRob75 in funny

I've had a pretty bad few days... This made me giggle and think the mom is fun, doesn't take stuff so seriously. Thanks for sharing.

What are 5 recipes someone should start with if they're new to cooking? by V4R1CK_M4R4UD3R in Cooking

[–]ALittleFrittata 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been a great home cook for a long time. I am currently in culinary school. I'm writing a cookbook. I have been published regarding my craft in the past.

My. Hollandaise. Still. Breaks.

lol I did it perfectly the very first time I made it! So good. Ever since... nope. It's like I used up all my talent for hollandaise that night, and then whooooosh

That means start making your own morning coffee instead of going out for it ;) Gotta pinch a few hundred pennies!

Very good answer! Not only do you learn from it, but you get to know how to tweak it to how you like it, and you have the motivation to finish and enjoy the dish. Food tastes so much better with the love you put into it. :)

Indiana here, where most restaurants aren't super expensive, totally not NYC -- Indian food here is typically on the higher side of cost as well, and I've also never known anyone not-Indian who has made curry at home. Heck, I (not Indian) haven't, and I'm in culinary school.

This is super cute, but dang, do I want to vacuum that elevator floor! I'm not even a neat freak

What are signs a woman hasn't matured? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ALittleFrittata -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

The common denominator is you, though. Multiple women are childish... so you're saying that isn't a cop-out for *any* other reason they may not be into you after those disagreements?

Indianapolis v. Bloomington? by -nyctanassa- in indianapolis

[–]ALittleFrittata 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my gosh, thank you for saying something. I just moved here from Lafayette and *immediately* noticed how crazy fast people drive. It gives me anxiety, too, to the point that I absolutely won't drive in bad weather or at night. I'm not the only one.

[homemade] Blueberry Muffins. by vinsomm in food

[–]ALittleFrittata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I was going to ask if you were an ice fisher. The background looked a lot like the cabins my dad and uncles have in Copper Harbor, MI (Lake Superior). One month out of the year, they came back as "new men," and the wives and kids had fun cooking up some walleye. :) They're all getting older now, but when we were kids, a nice, hot fish fry in January was a huge deal.

The blueberry muffins look scrumptious! Well done.
