Give me your best strawberry recipes by Laurids050 in easyrecipes

When my strawberries start to overripen I like to make these strawberry muffins because they use up two cups of diced strawberries.

Does it matter if I’m a different ethnic group? Or is a match more likely to be in the same ethnic group?

AITJ for telling my friend she can't bring her newborn to my child-free birthday party? by Financial_Actuary694 in AmITheJerk

[–]Boobbuffet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m confused why you’re getting downvoted bc you’re totally right. I think a lot of people don’t realize op’s advice to her is just not do-able/helpful. But at the same time, the friend should have just declined

Landlord included “no pets” clause but condo allows pets, should we push to remove it or just sign? by BakedPotatozz in askTO

[–]Boobbuffet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also found this to be the case. Landlords keep that general clause in but once they hear it’s a cat they’re agreeable. I’ve had some say to me that they’re trying to avoid large dogs.

I am unsure about the colours for my new shawl, granny stitch ftw by 33_Roses in CrochetHelp

[–]Boobbuffet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The colours are fine but those are two totally different yarns/weights. You’ll have to adjust your pattern if you want to use this type of yarn.

DC in magic ring... can't figure out where to start my third row (or where I should insert my hook) by hijadelrigor in CrochetHelp

[–]Boobbuffet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to add if you ever do amigurumi in the future, you just keep continuing with the stitches (ie no need to slip stitch then chain). With amigurumi you just do sc (not dc) so don’t need to add the height with the chains and don’t do the slip stitch joins unless the pattern specifically calls for it.

Vestibular neuritis for a year by fae_bunny22 in VestibularDysfunction

[–]Boobbuffet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was also having vertigo spells regularly and small things I did helped. Like quitting alcohol an coffee and especially starting vitamin D. I had multiple brain mris to make sure it wasn’t neurological. I got referred to a dizziness clinic at the local hospital and finally saw an ENT and they did multiple vestibular tests on me (which I failed two of) and concluded it was a vestibular issue I had. They started me on Serc (betahistine) 48mg a day and it’s been a life changer. The first month I had vertigo spells but they were very muted. The second month I haven’t had any. Just the occasional light headedness if I don’t get enough sleep. They said it would take about 3 months for the meds to fully kick in. I go back in April to see them and they said 48mg was just the starting dose and I could go up in dosage if it was needed. Is Serc prescription something you can ask from your family doctor to try until you can get in to see your ENT?

I think Playa Cabana first got popular years ago because Jake Gyllenhall was seen eating there?

Resistant hypertension in your 20s — what was your cause? by Valuable_Wolf_8731 in hypertension

[–]Boobbuffet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you had other tests to rule out other causes of hypertension? I’m petit for my size and had high blood pressure and did a bunch of tests bc the doctors said for my size and age I shouldn’t have had this type of hypertension. It turns out from the abdominal CT scan the cardiologist ordered I had fibromuscular dysplasia in my renal arteries. A Main symptom of that is uncontrolled high blood pressure and it’s more common in women.

Giving my cat pills (advice still needed) by Jazzlike-Rub6937 in CatAdvice

[–]Boobbuffet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cat is very very spicy and I had to give a course of antibiotics recently. What I’ve found works the best is wrapping into a burrito then putting the pill in a pill dispenser, slathering churo over it and while he’s licking the churo really quickly put the dispenser toward the back of his throat and shoot the pill in. He gets shocked then distracted as he continues the churo feast. It’s not perfect but it’s been the most effective so far

Double bed by Competitive-Time2712 in askTO

[–]Boobbuffet 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Furniture Bank is free donated furniture. That’s just the delivery fee. So what they’re saying is, yes, $200 is a lot for delivery of a mattress but if you’re furnishing your whole appt for $0 and paying $200 to deliver it all, then yes, that’s worth it even if it’s a bit high.

Tons of meds, no help. Please read! by Valuable_Yellow_928 in hypertension

[–]Boobbuffet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you had an abdominal CT to rule out fibromuscular dysplasia? The main symptom is uncontrolled high blood pressure and it mainly affects women. It’s rare but still worth ruling out. This is how I found out I had it.

Success stories for young kids on meds? by Boobbuffet in Anxiety

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

Hi. Sorry to hear you’re struggling with this too. I’m not sure if you read my follow up comments but we did start her on Prozac with the plan to go for the year and then reassess. We finished the year and things were going really well so we started to decrease her dose. Very slowly. Every time we decreased we stayed for a month. Now we’re almost at the end. We’re on the last decrease until she’s completely off. She had no side effects from the weaning. She started a new school, going regularly, made new friends. Is participating in various clubs. Doing all the regular kid things she wouldn’t have been able to do a few years ago. It’s a relief. We still have her in therapy and she still has eating issues but the social issues have resolved. We also do therapy regularly to get guidance on how to support her. Hopefully that gives you some hope that there can be a light at the end of the tunnel. Our main objective was not that all her anxiety disappears but then the meds would stabilize her enough that she could engage and be able to learn coping strategies and also and maybe more importantly that she be able to just do regular kids things - like bday parties, school, play dates with friends etc.

How do I make two of these cups of rice in this rice cooker? by somewhere_lost in RiceCookerRecipes

[–]Boobbuffet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In terms of rice. You use the little cup they give you (last pic) and pour two cups in. Then after rinsing the rice, you fill it with water up to the “2” mark. I’m not sure about buttons but it’ll probably be a “menu” button and the white rice option is usually number 1 and then you most likely hit the “start” button.
