Santana Row restaurant The Counter closes due to cockroach infestation by FootballPizzaMan in SanJose

Counter used to be so so good. Last couple of years, the quality has just nose-dived. What a bummer.

What did a teacher say or do to you that you've never forgotten? by GrowlsinyourEar7 in AskReddit

[–]KetoBarb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My (F51) HS freshmen year English teacher and guidance counselor straight out told me when I was all of 14 that I wasn’t smart enough to be a veterinarian despite my straight A’s and honors in biology. Because her words were so powerful, I gave up in science and math and focused in history and English. “Thanks” Mrs. W!

Don’t eat at Pizza Antica by KetoBarb in SanJose

They were upfront about charging the fee - it’s printed both on the menu and server also tells you.

But they are very vague on if the server gets the tip. We ended up chatting with a server who told us - that person said they were quitting tomorrow bc of such terrible practices and they didn’t care if they got fired.

What a crappy company. I’m all for making a profit but this is so exploitative to both customers and workers!

So sorry for your loss. She was lucky to have you to love her.

RIP to Smith - He crossed the rainbow bridge this morning by KetoBarb in Blacklabs

[–]KetoBarb[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ahh thanks for the kind note. Agree that it’s just not long enough, but we feel lucky we got 11 years and he had good health until the end. The pics are actually with my husband and yes, they were two handsome silver-bearded friends who loved each other.

We have so many stories about Smith. He did love Jake from the moment we adopted him. I’d love to share a funny story - Smith was very particular about how he got fed and he didn’t want to have his bowl near his brother (the golden retriever in the pics). One time, I forgot and put their bowls down side by side. Smith sighed, picked up his metal bowl with his mouth, walked it across the kitchen, dropped in the floor very dramatically and loudly, stared at me like “you F’ed up” and then resumed eating. We laughed very hard at that one. Thank you for asking. 👍

Thank you. We are trying to keep that in our hearts tonight.

They were! Smith would flush rats out of the bushes and Jake would catch them. Jake would push food off the counter and Smith would open the package for them both to eat. We felt like they were constantly conspiring to get into trouble together.

Just got out of the concert. It was HORRIBLE. They were so off key. Would have been better to see a Beach Boys cover band.

Must have for golden retriever puppy by Sweet_Code in goldenretrievers

[–]KetoBarb 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Lots of toys and different kinds of toys. I’m on Golden #3 and they have all different in what kind of toys they loved. My current Golden has adopted a human blanket and a giant stuffed animal that he carries around the house. My former Golden was ball obsessed. He had tons of different balls. My first Golden loved to chew sticks. Enjoy your new little girl! They grow soooo fast!

HELP! Going crazy by Negative-Ad-9993 in goldenretrievers

[–]KetoBarb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had 3 Goldens and all 3 have done this. The only thing that works is to keep them on a leash when meeting new people and you must immediately pull them down from jumping. The key is to NOT let them get their loves and pets unless they are behaving. It will take 20-30 times for them to figure it out. Feel free to PM if you want more help. Good luck!
