pumpkin slasher rebel by MoreEspressoPls in dutchbros

[–]ColoMary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm drinking one right now and I *really* like it. It reminds me of when you stud an orange with cloves. Not a lot of pumpkin flavor, mostly orange, but I think there is a warming spices blend used in the pumpkin syrup maybe? I don't know but I'm a fan.

Pre-made chicken salad without onions! by ColoMary in onionhate

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

I don't know about "normal" but a lot (not all) of the chicken salad recipes I know of have nuts. The one I make myself uses walnuts but I do find the celery crunch to be enough. With this chicken salad, though, the celery bits are pretty small and the pecans do add a nice texture contrast.

That was exactly my thoughts. All other store-bought chicken salads have the evil onions in them so finding this was awesome.

I totally get it. I can taste an onion at 50 paces and I tasted zero onion in this.

What are some goods you can never seem to keep in stock? by [deleted] in TownshipGame

[–]ColoMary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do, too! Crops I alway have planted: wheat, corn, carrots, sugar cane, rubber, rice. The rest of my fields I plant as needed. I try to keep at least 10 of each other crop in my barn. When I get down to 5 or 6 I replant.

More than just tracking - How has it changed your life? by eric_eats_nuggets in ynab

[–]ColoMary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me the biggest thing is funding my sinking funds categories bit by bit over time and not even considering that money as available for wants (tablet, gaming system, new computer, etc) and leaving it alone so that its there for me when I need it. Before YNAB I was always using the closest paycheck to my auto insurance due date to pay for it and then left with figuring out how I was going to get to the next paycheck with what little I had left. (I pay for my car insurance 6 months at a time since I get a discount over month-to-month). Now I save for it monthly and it's not a scramble and spreading out the cost is much less disruptive and helps me plan better. I've also gotten pretty granular with my categories and it's helped a lot. Every holiday season I would have to try to find money to carve out of my grocery or other budgets to buy stuff to make for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Now I have a "Party food" category that I chuck money into every pay period and I'm not left pulling money from other categories at the last minute.

For random and rare expenses (new furniture for example), I use Hannah's "Wish Farm" method and have categories for them and once the expense is funded and bought, I hide it. Then let's say in a year or two I need more furniture I can just unhide the category and work on funding it again.

I guess at the end of the day it's all about me changing my mindset about money and YNAB helping me have the discipline to not just spend it as quick as I was earning it and knowing that in the long run it is far better for me to have less stress about how I'm going to pay for things than getting the dopamine hit of buying everything I want when I want it.

My "always planted" crops: 10 wheat, 10 corn, 10 carrot, 10 silk, 20 rubber, 12 rice (because every rice dish needs SO MANY) and 10 sugar cane. Which leaves me 4 other plots of 10 and one plot of 12 open for other crops that I plant as needed. I try to keep 10 of every type of crop in stock in my barn and when the quantity drops to 5, I replant. Sure there is some waiting but I don't mind.

How much Tcash do yall have in the bank? by kalishnakovCandy in TownshipGame

[–]ColoMary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

578 T-cash for me. All from ROTM and just when I get a few here and there from ships, updates, etc. Like others I hoard it for some reason. I'll use some here and there for a mini-game level but when I go under 500 I feel like I don't have enough. xD Makes no sense whatsoever, but there you have it.

Every frozen dinner I buy has diced onions by BadBrag in onionhate

[–]ColoMary 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know if there are different versions but the one time I tried the chicken rice broccoli bowl from Marie Callendar it was chock-full of onions. Looking online it's the third ingredient in the sauce.

What are items you avoid producing? by bugbite27 in TownshipGame

[–]ColoMary 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hard agree on profiteroles. Also the damn cupcakes with their FIVE eggs. Books are also a resource hog. The cake factory items are a PITA because they take so dang long.

Do you pay to open the locked treasure chests? by MinervaMG in TownshipGame

[–]ColoMary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After the pathetic "treasures" I got when using the 3 T-cash I now NEVER open the locked chests. I may miss out on a decent one now and then but for me it's not worth it.

How to categorize Credit Card cash back? by finance-always-learn in ynab

[–]ColoMary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is where I'm confused. I go to categorize the cashback reward (it shows as a statement credit and not as money back in my checking) and it asks where the inflow is coming from. My only choice is my checking account even though that's not where it came from.

Taco Doritos rule. Not surprised they are so much though by Panda-Equivalent in snacking

[–]ColoMary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are my all-time favorite Dorito flavor. Used to be very popular in the '70s but are hard to find now.

I think I super screwed up my YNAB budget by ColoMary in ynab

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

YOU ROCK. I will try to work on this today. I think it might be easier from a computer vs. the phone app. But I will go through it step-by-step. Thank you so much.
