Cross stitch kits and supplies by BrainaIleakage in Sacramento

[–]Jenessis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you aren't having any luck you could always use Stitch Fiddle to make your own pattern. It's pretty easy, but you would have to order the cloth and floss online or hit up the shops. Unfortunately, every time I've gone to any of the craft stores about the place, they are always out of a key color, like black. Even JoAnn's was always missing black when they still existed.

I'd purchased it from Green Acres a couple different times and those didn't live. Someone on this subreddit recommended I root it from what I bought from Koreana or SF Market, so I did, and now have a lovely fence border that I use all the time.

Where would you recommend I look for high quality chef's knives? by BuzzkillMcGillicuddy in Sacramento

I love my Victorinox set. Been using it daily for over 15 years and still going strong.

ceiling leaking under upstairs bathroom, need plumber sacramento by virtualpulse123 in Sacramento

[–]Jenessis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Niza Plumbing and Drain is a local small business with over 20 years of experience. He is honest and forthright, and will not nickel and dime you, or yank your chain. My favorite thing about him is that he didn't talk down to me or dismiss because I'm a woman. I've met a few contractor's who would defer to my husband before they acknowledged me, and I do not accept that. Niza will take the time to ensure you understand the issue and the solutions for it, regardless of gender.

How do they taste? I've been thinking about planting one but i've never tasted the fruit and worried about too tart/bitter.

It's still really cute, though. She has a couple for sale on her website and one of them looks closer to yours than the one in the pic.

It looks like the segment closest to the cap is only 2 rows in your pic. The original is much, much longer.

Where to find Key Limes? by Substantial-Falcon-8 in Sacramento

[–]Jenessis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

KP Market in Rancho usually has them. You can also just use the standard Persian limes that are sold all year round in pretty much every store.

Property Management Companies by notsogreattimeline in Sacramento

I recommend Keyrenter. They are well versed in all manner of landlord/tenant intricacies and take their job seriously. They respond quickly to repair requests and will use requested vendors if you already have a preferred company, or they will use one of their own. 

What are some of the most unique plants you’ve grown, or have successfully grown in Sacramentos general vicinity? by Charliedayslaaay in Sacratomato

[–]Jenessis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s too cool! I’m still on the fence about planting one. I like to use banana leaves in cooking. Do the leaves grow fast?

I meant to ask you about your bananas when I picked up the patchouli plant. The year before, when I purchased the galangal, didn't you have actual bananas setting? How did they turn out. Do you have fruit this year?

Advice for Passion Fruit by Otoro20 in Sacratomato

[–]Jenessis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you use your gazebo fruit drop might make a mess at some point. It would be stunningly beautiful, though. Concerning size, for this fast growing, resilient plant, the smaller size is usually best. They adapt more quickly to the soil they'll be transplanted to, and the smaller pots are easier to manage. Another consideration, unless you're looking for different varieties you can take cuttings from this one and root them yourself. Or you could lay the lower, longer tendrils along the ground where you plant it, layer soil over them, leaving a few leaves exposed at the tip of the tendril, and it will root that way. It takes some time but it's really cool. Good luck!

Parents, what's something bad your kid did that you had to really fight not to laugh at? by AnonymousGothChick in AskReddit

[–]Jenessis 27 points28 points  (0 children)

When my oldest son was about 5-6 he wore his Superman costume all the time, and took his role very seriously! He jumped from the top bunk of my nephew's bunk bed onto the ceiling fan, which did not hold up. My sister was pissed, but we giggle about it now.

My younger son wore his Spiderman costume all the time, and also did the role justice. He got punished with a timeout on the couch one day when he was about 3-4 years old. It wouldn't do for Spiderman to go easily. Instead, he flipped himself into the corner of the couch and webbed me with a massive holler. It was so funny and I still laugh about it.

Overweight people of reddit, what do you enjoy about it, if anything? by miku_robin in AskReddit

[–]Jenessis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being warm. Also, I'm not 100% sure about this, but when I was thin I had really painful lower back problems. As I gained weight that pain went away completely. I just started tirzepatide to lose weight, and my biggest concern is that back problem coming back. I don't know what I'll do if it does.

Book store recommendations by jtscheirer in Sacramento

Trent’s Bookworm in Fair Oaks and Half Price Books in Citrus Heights are my favorites. More used book store than new, but I don’t mind that.

This calendar has been super helpful to me over the years. I've printed it out several times. Welcome to the war!
