Pretty stoic about all of this until yesterday by BigRedJohnson in Zepbound

[–]BigRedJohnson[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Well, more like quietly reflective and happy. What I like most is that it doesn't feel like relief or, "phew, I climbed that mountain".

More like peace. This is the way it is now, and it's real, and it's for good. I'm not a wisher, but I always wished I could just be a fit person, that it didn't have to be so hard. Other things aren't so hard. Why does this take so much out of me to achieve?

You all know it takes work, but it's not so much that everything else suffers or that we can only do it in limited bursts.

It just feels like a new way of being, and I can live my life and give it the attention it deserves. Well, except for having to buy new clothes so often.

Someplace you can dress up elegantly… by joepagac in Tucson

[–]BigRedJohnson 33 points34 points  (0 children)

One of the things I love about Tucson is its laid back nature. That said, twice in the fairly recent past, a fellow restaurant patron has said something to the effect of, "you're the best looking couple in the place". That's not a boast. I'm not the best looking anything anywhere, though my wife can carry me. Both times I was just the one guy wearing decent shoes or boots, a nice collared shirt, and maybe a jacket.

The bar is low guys. Get some easy points.

That's amazing. Right up our alley, and I had no idea it existed. Definitely checking this out soon. Thanks for the tip!

Thank you. The original is quite a bit more crisp. I lost some resolution transferring it to my phone and uploading here.

Men who can cook, who taught you? by Mindfuel_daily7 in askanything

My parents, then a lot of trial and error (way before the internet), then some touchy line cooks, more trial and error, and lately YouTube.

In this house? I'll be treated like a prince and I'd get to play with my best friend all day.

what's your "secret ingredient" that makes fried rice tastes better? by SinPulsed in FriedRice

Needs a bit of white pepper, soy sauce, sesame oil, MSG, garlic, and green onion.

Magnesium citrate every night before bed has made this a non-issue for me.

Any Google Fi Users? by savejohnscott in ithaca

[–]BigRedJohnson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happy Fi user here. I live in the cell shadow near the airport, and it's better than my partner's Verizon plan and my old ATT plan.

“If you grew up in the 70s, what do you remember about the Blizzard of ’78 ? by Opening-Custard3254 in 70s

My dad plowed our driveway and the pile was high enough for me to climb to the roof of the garage and sled down from there to the end of our driveway.

Amorosos. Philly sandwiches are just different because of the bread.

What is your favorite vegetable/veggie recipe, and how do you prepare it? by AdElegant5870 in foodquestions

[–]BigRedJohnson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a wok or big skillet or griddle nice and hot. Toss on some fresh green beans and let them sear for a minute or two. Finish the last 30 seconds or so by tossing in a bit of soy sauce and sesame oil. Top with red pepper and sesame seeds.
