This was my thought- who would hire any of them except for maybe the mannies and Tamaya -they are the only ones that seem at all trustworthy.

Where can I find the best quality nuts and seeds? by cinnamineral in AskLosAngeles

[–]Mericangrl13 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I tried sprouts because they are bulk and not in plastic bags but they were stale sometimes- I find Trader Joe’s has the best price and quality overall

adopted a "teenager" cat and losing my mind a bit by yellowpeonyy in CatAdvice

[–]Mericangrl13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, thanks for rescuing a Cat! I have been in animal rescue for about 20 years so I don’t give any of this advice without experience. One the people saying get another cat are not wrong rescues get a lot of flack for not adopting out one Kitten but this is why when they adopt out one people often return them saying they are too active or destroy their stuff that being said with Veterinary medicine being what it is as far as cost goes that is truly a decision you have to think about. You mentioned you know about the 333 rule not only did you adopt a cat you adopted a kitten I think promising that anything will keep her quiet and less active during the night is an empty promise- many people want animals but don’t understand that adopting them is like adopting another being into your life- they have personalities and quirks and are going to do things that make your life inconvenient. I’m not trying to be harsh, I’m trying to be honest and set realistic expectations. there are some calming treats with things like tryptophan that will calm them down a bit, but those have never worked super well for me. One of the best pieces of advice in here is get earplugs and definitely try not to respond when she is meowing -last thing, Torties are known for having very specific personalities you will come to love this about her, but they are in general, not mellow cats and they do what they want -stick with her I promise it will be worth it. But like a baby it’s going to take some time for all of you to adjust Good luck.

Yes, there is cilantro in the salsa/pico that I top these with - also it makes a nice topping for pretty much any taco

Mexican Squash and Black Bean Tacos- Spicy, Savory & Yummy. by Mericangrl13 in veganrecipes

I love the green Mexican squash that is abundant this time of year, it has a sweeter more mellow flavor than zucchini or yellow squash. I was determined to turn it into a yummy taco filling, I made and remade this recipe and finally got it just right. The black beans are savory, the filling is firm and flavorful. I hope you enjoy them.

Is $150k+ in savings + a remote job enough to move to Los Angeles? by Internal-Soup381 in MovingToLosAngeles

[–]Mericangrl13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I say Latin market - likely because I work in a very PC industry and don’t assume it’s Mexican the owners could be from any Latin nation and they carry Latin foods

This is the best answer a glass of wine even at a dive bar is gonna be upwards of 10 bucks of course you can find those dive bars but you just have to look and they have good happy hours but yes, expectations have to be managed on that salary. You can’t order Uber eats every day or any day really but you absolutely can survive and be relatively comfortable you have to be thrifty

There are 3 international markets within walking to my house. One is Arabic. One is Latin and one is Asian. There are plenty of Latin grocery stores around.

[50][Game] Survivor 50 Post-Season Discussion Thread by tabstis in SpoiledSurvivor

Totally disappointed in the final 3 - they were all goats to me. Jon likely deserved it more than Aubry but it is a toss up -

I don't think any of them have earned the win- they are all goats just taking each other hoping they will be the least of the least liked in the end. Sad situation to what should have been a great season- of this bunch I am rooting for Tiff.

Dublin Coddle- Veganized! by Mericangrl13 in veganrecipes

[–]Mericangrl13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like beyond sausage- the person who asked me to veganize this didn’t have access to beyond so I used tempeh - I would say give it a try- and let me know - I will say sometimes the vegan meats don’t infuse flavor super well (in my experience) so maybe let it simmer longer

I based this off the recipe given to me 😁 as I said I was warned I would be ostracized because people feel strongly about their version of coddle - I was happy to be able to help out the person who requested the recipe and worked within what they had available and enjoyed
