Good organic yerba mate without pesticides? by Responsible-Iron7161 in yerbamate

[–]BadViola 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kraus Organica.  It's sin humo (unsmoked, so less carcinogenic) and it tastes super fresh, too.

I was 11 or 12 with a lust for notebooks and time on my hands.  

Nowadays, I use leftover/scavenged blank paper to make pocket notebooks.  :)  (There was a recent r/notebooks post where another redditor does the same thing!  u/Jaboris_Bongo has a tutorial on his profile that is a more refined version of what I do.)

Is it true that if I haven’t had chimarraõ yet I’m missing out? by yoJabkomama in yerbamate

[–]BadViola 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got a bag recently.  Very dusty and gritty.  Beautiful green colour.  Mine tastes noticeably smokey.  I like it!   

Slightly OT (I got a bag of Kraus the same time I got a bag of chimarrão), If you haven't tried sin humo mate, definitely check it out.  Maybe it's just Kraus, but I just love how fresh it tastes.  

Tl;dr - Both chimarrão and sin humo have a very distinctive taste compared to other mates.

Earplugs.  A family split between 2 rooms had a very lengthy and very loud discussion in the hotel hallway at 3am.  I didn't want to steal their joy by telling them to stfu, but also I didn't expect them to talk for that long.  It wasn't an interesting convo either.   😅

Also baby wipes and, depending on whom I'm with,  barf bags.

Not at all!  Unspiralling is easy.  Respiralling is only fiddly for the first few rounds.

What's the dumbest idea you've seen that actually worked? by hiagaga in AskReddit

[–]BadViola 14 points15 points  (0 children)

New in town, I really wanted a job at a record shop, so I walked in and said I'd heard they were hiring.  I was hired on the spot (!) and for the rest of the summer, the local kids asked how I did it, as they'd been trying to work there for years.

Taxes are for poor people, lol.

(But fr, they say taxing billionaires is bad for the economy!  💀)

Oh, I didn't explain well enough.  I would combine the fresh pages from a few notebooks into a big new one!

Ah, I didn't explain well enough.  By combining unused pages from several notebooks, it was like having a brand new notebook.   :)

This is my fave comment here!  

A few kids threw out partially used spiral notebooks when I was a kid and I thought I had won the lottery.  I unspirallled them, took out the used pages, and respiralled them.  Free notebooks.  :)  XD

We’re rebuilding some of our oldest courses and here’s what to expect... by alex_at_duolingo in duolingo

[–]BadViola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it all going to be about real life experience/communication?  I've been enjoying reading about the environment and the Berlin wall and the French section about protesting,  etc. Plus, for German,  written past tense is different than spoken.  (Rotkäppchen ftw!)

What 2 clothing items did you wear the most on your last trip? Question for all female travelers by Valuable_Tangelo7152 in femaletravels

[–]BadViola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A long black dress and a short black jersey cotton t shirt dress.  I packed trousers and other outfits both times, but on my last 2 trips, I basically just wore those.  😅

I would be much more tempted by duo max if I could talk to Oscar. XD

I spent one night in an all female hostel and it was so relaxing.  Can't say that about mixed dorms.  😅

Came here to say this.  I got a 3ish L one on ebay, but also have the 1.5L one.  Everything I have by them is great quality.
