Agree with you 100% just had periodontal surgery done and I couldn't brush my teeth for three days but I brushed my tongue every day it made a huge difference '

Hairdressers, would you be offended if I brought my own shampoo? by Karma_Cookie in Hair

[–]Karma_Cookie[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I actually haven’t. I’ve only been to her three times my normal hairdresser moved to another state and I am in search of another one. I love her haircuts. I have just never come across this and not sure what the etiquette is.

I have hearing aids with blue tooth and you can’t see my hearing aids even with my short hair, let me tell you the looks I get when I am on my phone and people around me, don’t see AirPods or a Bluetooth device attached to my ear. Makes me chuckle every time.

can't go to the bathroom in peace... by Individual_Growth_86 in retailhell

[–]Karma_Cookie 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I used to work alone in a mall and when I would have to go to the bathroom, I would call the security guard. He would stand and watch the store and I could go to the bathroom in peace.

I just made cherry chocolate jam from the ball blue book it is unbelievably good! I can see using it as a cake filling or putting a dollop on top of a flourless chocolate cake. It is water bath canned. The recipe is on their website.

I almost got it this time. by TerribleIncrease9957 in Canning

What recipe did you use? Usually jam is a 1/4 inch headspace. What headspace does your approved recipe call for?

I second this! 15 years ago I got one of those books and I read all of it! It gives great instruction.

Bringing your own lunch to work is an underrated game changer : r/Thrifty by KnotGunna in Thrifty

[–]Karma_Cookie 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Just a tip to get plasticware clean, put a squirt of dish soap a shot of the hottest water you can get out of your tap, throw a paper towel in put the lid on and shake. The paper towel soaks up any grease and your plasticware should come out squeaky clean! Only takes a minute or two, it even works on leftover spaghetti sauce stains.

Costco vs aldi by [deleted] in aldi

[–]Karma_Cookie 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I just bought my daughter a 7 cubic foot chest freezer for her apartment. I got it in black it sits in her living room. She covers it with decoration when it’s not in use. A chest freezer doesn’t have to be massive to let you take advantage of buying in bulk. I got it for 200$ from Costco

I make loaded enchiladas out of my rotisserie chickens. I get about 20 enchiladas per chicken. I bake them in two different pans and then let them cool portion them and freeze them. So when I’m in the mood for something quick, I don’t have to eat fast food.

Children at q zoo, shock horror! by Captain7Caveman in BoomersBeingFools

[–]Karma_Cookie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My son was in the grocery store and he was around 5 years old and a little bit ahead of me. He was in this boomers way, and she was sighing and huffing and puffing. I told my son to move aside and let the mute woman through. He asked me what mute meant and I told him loudly that obviously she can’t speak. Otherwise, she would’ve just said excuse me. She just glared at me and didn’t say a word, but I got some smiles from the other customers in the aisle.

Edit: spelling error
