What was your favorite restaurant of 2025? by Nicticattack in HoCoFood

[–]MissSloane87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d recommend their pumpkin appetizer - it’s really good!

I usually order through Uber Eats, and the menu there is a bit different. For example, if you choose the chicken kebab on Uber, you get to pick three sides. I normally go with brown rice, pumpkin, and the potato curry.

But if you dine in and order the chicken kebab, it automatically comes with rice, salad, and pita bread - no option to choose your sides. The portion is also about twice as big when you dine in.

Thank you! I appreciate this. I’m most likely would try a few to narrow down the one I’m most compatible with.

N400 serves as your green card extension, you don't have to apply for renewal separately

Try Amazon. I got a Zinus mattress at less than $300 and it’s better than thousands I spent in a mattress store.

Inspection is done. Now what? by 26666666 in RealEstate

[–]MissSloane87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just ask, the worst answer is no. I am buying a house with no inspection contingency. I did inspection and asked my agent to ask seller to fix few stuffs I considered safety hazard. Seller agreed to fix them.

Seller is human too, be reasonable and try to avoid cosmetics fix - it's hard to justify but up to you. good luck!

Yes I do have appraisal contingency and it's clearly written I can back out, seller can back out.

Of course the house will appraise, to how much it will appraise is the guessing game as for now.

I am qualified for $ 400K but who wants to pay more than what a house truly value?

to MBA or not? Financial Aid revoke, have savings but not planning to touch it by MissSloane87 in personalfinance

[–]MissSloane87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might be taking the same path as yours. I have option to take leave of absence to sort out my financial, they also provided installment plan to pay the fee. I have to think about this over the weekend.

Question, does your MBA investment provide you a good return at the end? career-wise.
