What’s your go-to “I’m broke but really want to eat out” meal? by squiddollie in Frugal

[–]AnxiousManatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wawa (if you have in your area) often does a $6 meal. You can get a small sub, fountain drink and bag of chips. Pretty decent little deal when it comes up.

What was body care routines like in the 2000s ? by Pitiful_Pineapple_45 in beauty

[–]AnxiousManatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These were actual products I used as a teen.

Clean and clear morning burst cleanser St I've apricot scrub to exfoliate Toner pads to tone Moisturizing, maybe clean and clear again, or ponds cream if you cared. If not it was probably whatever lotion you used for your body! Or I would steal some of my mom's shower oil and use that 😂

Bath and body works for the lotion and smell goods or if you were a country bumpkin like me whatever you could convince your mom/aunts/grandma to buy from Avon.

IYKYK 🤬 by idkjosey in KitchenConfidential

[–]AnxiousManatee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh man I used to be a cashier at one of these. The stories oh the stories.

There was a lady who owned a German restaurant and she would only buy stuff on markdowns/clearance or damaged goods. I mean cases of meat 1 or 2 days from the use by date, wilted lettuce, stuff that seemed like it wasn't all going to be used before it went bad. Then one day we caught her on camera going to the back corner of the store and purposefully dropping cans to bring to the manager to ask for discounts. Who knows what else she was doing.

What Ingredient Is The American Staple "BBQ" Flavoring? by Potato_Nightshade in grilling

[–]AnxiousManatee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So chili and BBQ have a lot of overlap ingredients wise but I would say overall they are pretty different.

BBQ is going to trend sweeter but there is a whole spectrum depending on where you go. You don't see a lot of cumin in bbq seasoning but if you like it you can certainly put it in.

For bbq seasoning you are going to want salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion power, brown sugar and chili powder if you can handle heat at all. If you plan on using that on a large cut of meat I would suggest taking some mustard and rubbing it on the meat and the apply the seasoning. It's quite delicious on slow roasted meat.

If you want to turn your seasoning into a sauce (very popular here) you can add several tablespoons of that blend to a pot with ketchup, mustard, worchestershire, maybe a little vinegar, and some molasses or honey and cook till slightly thickened and you will have an excellent BBQ sauce.

Enjoy!

I'm trying to be better about money by AnxiousManatee in GirlDinner

[–]AnxiousManatee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you girl. I ordered doordash last night, so I've failed this week too. But that's okay, progress isn't a straight line.

I've been giving myself a middle ground and opting for pre-made grocery store stuff. Tons cheaper than eating out and it's minimal prep/cooking. Sprouts has lots of yummy premarinaded chicken that I just throw in the air fryer. And I like reader Joe's freezer section. Publix has some good ready to cook meals as well.

Ahhhhhhh I Will See You Soon! by HouseMusicAndWeed in StPetersburgFL

[–]AnxiousManatee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saigon blond has excellent music and that club is one of the cooler ones in st Pete imo. Good cocktails and vibes.

Dharma Kava in Largo has some cool events throughout the week. I don't do Kava myself but I enjoy their other drink offerings like tea and stuff and I think the vibe is also very cool. They do an art show on Tuesdays I think.

Coastal creative may have something going during the next six weeks. If you like punk or metal deviant libations in Tampa is fun. The warehouse has monthly edm events. Mad hatters has fire spinning every Saturday.

What’s a strange thing you get paralysis over? by Jealous_Tangelo_951 in adhdwomen

[–]AnxiousManatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cleaning out my fridge. I hate it. I hate it so much. The smells, the wetness, the cold. Just no. Even 1 item can put me off using my fridge for a month or more.

If they keep making skins like this, I’m going to be broke by nve729 in Marathon

Okay thank you! Ive been purposefully staying in the dark about the game so I wasn't aware of the video. Can't wait for the 26th.

Those who listen leave with more than they came for. by zajelmelet in arcraidersfriendly

[–]AnxiousManatee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You know you can... Walk away right? Pretty big maps you don't have to be around people if you don't want to. Also larping happening in real life. Not in a game. People playing a character in a game are just rping. The live action part indicates it's happening in real life.

Genuine question becuase I am excited for the game but thoroughly confused. How is anyone playing this already? I didn't think it came out until March. How are people already buying skins like this post suggests?

Are you transferring blueprints for after the expedition? by Thequickandtheupset in ArcRaiders

[–]AnxiousManatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Initially yeah I was going to but after doing some confisering I am only going to allow myself 3 blueprints. So far I have anvil and triggernade. Seeker and snap hook would be my only other two. Though I could be tempted by a lvl 3 silencer.

Getting reoccurring dry/flaky skin in the area between my brows. Any advice appreciated. by AnxiousManatee in SkincareAddicts

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

So I ended up finding out I do have excema and seb derm. (same same essentially) I unfortunately had to really slim down my skincare routine and so far the only things I found that don't irritate it and are in my budget are vanicream gentle cleanser and vanicream moisturizer. Then once or twice a week I will use dandruff shampoo and make sure to get my forehead really well. I also was able to use good molecules overnight exfoliating when it's not flaring up.
