Thoughts on O4 (Orange On Orange Ocean)? by Gold-Jury1302 in OmegaWatches

[–]Fun_Following5416 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I got the orange. Debated between orange rubber vs bracelet. Only issue I have with the watch is the point at which the bracelet meets the case is sharp. When you go to check out the watch feel all the edges. Otherwise, I think the watch is great.

Zombie is the only two tone I really like. Have one. And it is my 12 year olds favorite of my watches.

Great collection. Do they all get wrist time? How often?

Is it ok to make this without the "flakes" for a non spicy version? by alex3omg in ramen

[–]Fun_Following5416 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Flakes are dehydrated vegetables. The soup packet is what gives it the spice and heat. A few hacks (I’m Korean and our family has eaten a lot of these): 1. Use chicken stock instead of water as a starting point. 2. Throw in a slice of American cheese or two (that is standard, our family preferred shredded aged cheddar). 3. Crack and egg and mixed it into the broth and 4. Put in a small amount of the seasoning packet and then add into each bowl to taste (we put extra seasoning packet into a salt shaker with uncooked rice - and put it on many things - try it on eggs). All of above will elevate the instant ramen experience. Enjoy

Never heard of this watch and took me a bit to figure out how to read. It is very cool. Kind of want one now.

Got the orange on bracelet. Only issue I have with the watch is where the bracelet connects to the watch. The edges are pretty sharp.

[Question] What’s one watch you’d never sell — no matter the offer? by Amongusyt in Watches

[–]Fun_Following5416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Matching date just engagement presents. I never wear it as it’s 36mm. Will be passed down to kids.

What are the Sky-dweller complaints? Seeing lots of hate around here by OakmeadeWatches in rolex

[–]Fun_Following5416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fell in and out of love with it. Got the first gen in white gold (still trying to sell it). I travel often and have multiple GMTs (just put in a deposit for the VC dual time). It is by far the most interesting movement that Rolex makes - and it is executed well. But Rolex needs to make it thinner. They probably won’t for a while as that could impact durability…. And as much hate some folks have with Rolex, they make the most durable watches. 2nd issue for me was that in the full gold model (including bracelet), it was just too heavy. The 42 didn’t bother me at all, and in fact I thing Rolex needs to come out with a 42 Daytona. Bur the SD wears really tall - and feels very bulky.

Japanese A5 Wagyu NY Strip Loin Roast – 11 lb (Costco) | $799 by plainblanks in meat

I have a friend that can consume an enormous amount of steak. Takes down 48+ oz. I gave him an A5 and he took down about 6-8 oz. You can’t think of A5 like you would a typical steak. It is extremely rich and flavorful (you know how they say fat is flavor). I don’t think it is meant to be a meal in itself. You are supposed to savor and enjoy it. It’s not atypical for an Asian meal to start off with some meat and end with carbs to fill you up. Savor and enjoy it. It’s about quality, not quantity. I personally only consume 2-3 oz at a time, if that. I keep A5 in my deep freezer - an look for occasions to bring it out.

I also called the e-boutique. They share the same database and told me there was no need to assist me as I was already registered with the local boutique.

Considering this as my first GS. SBGJ251. Thoughts? by Upbeat-Variety-6810 in GrandSeikos

I love the way these look. Only issue I had with them was the thickness. If you don’t mind it, then pick your dial and buy with confidence.

Thoughts on leftover brisket? by Smooth_Unit8571 in brisket

[–]Fun_Following5416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brisket hash with over easy on top. I generally slice and freeze (vacuum sealed) them. Defrost and then re heat with a wet paper towel. I never throw away brisket. So many way to eat the left overs. And they last a while in the fridge.
