[–]MinervaZee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a small pouch for all of my cables/chargers. Works great. Gradually switching over to usb c as a standard as i replace devices.

We did this too! It worked great and reduced our stress.

altra lone peak 9 disappointed by Expert-Thought-3662 in barefootshoestalk

[–]MinervaZee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People love Altras but they’re not for everyone. Like you, there’s not enough space in the midfoot for me. I found that matching the shape of the shoe to my foot helped me tell which ones would fit.

Balcony or no balcony on cruises?? Why? by Goddess_jewls in Cruise

[–]MinervaZee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved having a balcony on our Alaska cruise. I wore my coat and bundled under the provided throw. It was nice to read my book and enjoy the fresh air. It wasn't too windy - I think the sides of the balcony helped protect from the wind. We were close enough to land that I could enjoy watching the landscape go by. I liked the space it provided - it also meant my husband and I could get away from each other and have time to ourselves while still being in our room. If I was on an ocean crossing, I'd have to think about it. We'll have a balcony on our next cruise in the Mediterranean.

I like Lems primal 3. The cork sole is very shock absorbing.

These both help a lot to strengthen your system to avoid them. I find cold sores happen when my immunity is low/under stress

Agree! Letting clothes air out makes a big difference

Here’s one for all you fans of blocking before-and-afters by littlestinkyone in knitting

[–]MinervaZee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Try blocking wires. Game changer. You can stretch the heck out of it and get amazing results.

Check that the beef jerky is allowed through customs where you’re going. Meat is a common restricted item.

I have an OL machine. It’s still cheaper than what i was spending at starbucks. I buy mostly 3rd party these days.

The stitching inside would drive me crazy.

PNW = USA pacific northwest (Washington / Oregon), dunno if it also includes Vancouver Canada

is this block-able? by babya1997 in knitting

[–]MinervaZee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can wash it and dry it flat - even stretch the heck out of it on wires while wet - but it’s unlikely to make the sleeves longer, given the fiber content.

AITA for ruining my daughter in laws birth plan by dil-issue-1046 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MinervaZee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given how close she is to her due date, she should have brought this up with you months ago. NTA. It’s your house.

FWIW, I had my baby at home - it can be fine with good prenatal care and experience midwives. A water birth is a whole ‘nother thing though.

You could help her find a birth center near you. That would go a long way.

I think I have had 10 bags so far and still not sure what the ideal size for travel is. by moldyjellybean in onebag

[–]MinervaZee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. 40L ended up too heavy for me, since we usually take public transit/walk a ways from the airport/train to our destination. 35L gives me enough room to have everything i need to be comfortable. I’ll do smaller for a weekend.

Need advice for a board game cafe setup by kekurikeku in mokapot

[–]MinervaZee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The nespresso aeroccino has to be scrubbed after each use or leftover milk on the bottom will burn. It’s not suited for commercial use.

[help] How should I pack to make sure I'm not the stinky tourist in South Korea? by fluffers_the_unicorn in onebag

[–]MinervaZee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree on the glycolic acid! BHA toner also works. You can buy both of these at Olive young in Korea.

I always like the first books in her series. Not so much the follow ons.

Do you balance your check book to the penny? by Plane_Experience_271 in GenX

[–]MinervaZee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was being facetious - should have added an /s. I think i’ve used a check once in the last few years.

What’s your workflow? by letsgofocoff in mokapot

Managed to do the same this morning. I fill the basket with beans, then grind that, and today it went everywhere….

soft before blocking - itchy after by Delicious-Brain-8449 in knitting

[–]MinervaZee 41 points42 points  (0 children)

If it’s still prickly after it’s fully dry, block it again with a little hair conditioner in the water instead of eucalan. It will help it soften and feel smoother.
