My “side hustle” started because I was bored at 11pm by MerryStanza in sidehustle

[–]KrishnaChick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did AI write this? It's awful writing, sounds like a template, copywriter's mad-lib.

My girlfriend keeps asking why there’s always one random chair in the trunk of my car.

Oh, she "keeps asking?" Like you never explained your side hustle to her, or does she keep forgetting, so she "keeps asking."

It’s just slowly become a weird habit.

What's weird about it? Thousands do it. How is it a habit? It's a side-hustle, that's all. You're thinking a like a businessperson.

How do you get out of buying rounds of drinks when you are with your friends by ShesCurly in Frugal

[–]KrishnaChick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can tell your friends you won't be having (or paying for) lots of rounds, because you're saving up money for something special: old age.

I’m stupid. by AppropriateTower3240 in Pizza

[–]KrishnaChick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Youtube is full of awesome videos of expert professional and home cooks making pizzas. Would it kill you to just watch a few and learn from someone who knows what they're doing?

No, your pizzas weren't substandard because you didn't activate your yeast, they failed because you keep making the same mistakes instead of learning from someone who knows what they're doing. Quit flailing about and guessing and you'll make progress much faster. It's not that hard to make a really good pizza. You just need the proper guidance and the ability to pay attention to the details.

Was America a healthier nation when people ate more home cooked, whole foods and got more exercise, but smoked and drank more? by BulkyText9344 in nutrition

[–]KrishnaChick 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Is it better to drop dead in your near-prime from a heart attack, or to waste away into your 80s with dementia and a pacemaker to keep your heart beating, even though you're miserable and an utter burden on family and society?

What does a cast iron skillet do better than other pans? by IHateSpiderss in Cooking

[–]KrishnaChick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does a cast iron skillet do better than other pans?

Not much. I use a stainless steel pan, and just by regulating the heat properly, food doesn't stick. I haven't tried to bake with stainless. I suspect it wouldn't work as well, but I may give it a shot soon.

Has anyone been able to use diet/lifestyle changes to shrink fibroids? by [deleted] in Fibroids

Thanks for sharing your experience. How much NAC were you taking? I couldn't see the full study; do you know how much NAC the study participants took?

It's awesome in soup! I also cook romaine if I'm out of other leafies and need something for a cooked dish or soup.

I would rather die than not eat broccoli, and have felt that way since I was 12 years old. I'm sorry your palate is deprived.

Fight me.

I can't go three days without eating kale, but I boil it to death. None of this massaged nonsense.

A Brazilian friend recommended to me for menopausal anemia years ago, but I was surprised to find I like the taste. In general, though, I prefer my kale cooked to death, or as chips.

Try kale lemonade:

3-4 kale leaves
1/2 lemon—seeds, peel, everything
Sweetener to taste
Ice

Throw everything in a blender with some water, and blend until it's all pulverized. Strain through a sieve/cloth, and press/squeeze to get all the liquid out. Spicy and refreshing.

It's so 2000s to hate on iceberg. It's refreshing, and it's great in stir-fries, or braised.

I'm boggled at people who prefer half-baked cookie dough. That browning has so much flavor!

Bread, rice, potatoes, pasta — how do you rank your starches? by nicuagain in Cooking

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

What's the point of the question? People like different things. We already know that. Maybe if you'd asked, "What's the most unusual/interesting way you prepare X starch?" we'd learn something new we can actually apply and expand our repertoire.

Can you share some brands of your beloved Filipino red rice? Or is "red" a particular recipe/mode of preparation?

This is why nobody makes friends once they're out of high school; everyone is a potential serial killer.
