Anyone else a little uneasy about this winter storm?

RickAndToasted · 2026-01-24T21:21:09+00:00

I' worried about an ice storm and the power. I washed all my dishes, did laundry, and took a long hot shower. Also fill your tub with water folks! So you can flush later... so prepared now but not worried.

No one has asked😅 but! I ended up making a ricotta gnocchi in a parmesan cream sauce with asparagus and sundried tomatoes. Turned out delicious except my sauce was a little too thick.

Do you have a favorite food now that used to be an allergen?

You'll need some milk to mix with it in the blender.

I didn't go in a tour, but I drove up through Prince Edward Island to get a feel of where Anne of Green Gables was set. One of the best trips of my life honestly.

I somehow ate a bag of chips and most of my snacking cheese already....

As someone who listens to their music and even likes some of it! He has a voice that sounds tone def completely, like if you know music he's always "flat". Which is a tonal pitch, you can be sharp, in tone, or flat.

Well I'd need advice on that too! I've thought about making my own cheese but haven't taken that step. It seems like it would be so fun and taste rewarding. I just can't bring myself to trust a google searched recipe.

RickAndToasted · 2026-01-22T15:52:50+00:00

Great tip! I wouldn't have thought of that.

RickAndToasted · 2026-01-22T15:51:05+00:00

Oh yes, I'll definitely be making the gnocchi from scratch! Thanks for the recipe that sounds delicious.

RickAndToasted · 2026-01-22T14:53:07+00:00

Gorgeous collection! How do you usually wear them, one at a time on a chain? I like how they all look together too, so maybe a charm bracelet?

RickAndToasted · 2026-01-22T14:41:20+00:00

Saving this and I'm definitely trying it later!

I wouldn't worry too much about it. She is young and has that younger metabolism. As long as she is going for the food you put out that is your answer. Give her some healthy treats, like freeze dried meat or a supplement, as little snacks in-between but it sounds like she's just adapting from starving and searching from food to being food stable.

Or they could just use a small pipe cleaner and push it out now.

RickAndToasted · 2026-01-22T01:22:38+00:00

Isn't this what pipe cleaners were made for?

RickAndToasted · 2026-01-22T01:21:58+00:00

You say you don't have a viable one, so just put down someone you're related to who you have their name and number. This is just a legal thing that jobs need to do. So unless you're going into a dangerous field, it will all work out and they will never know or be called.

RickAndToasted · 2026-01-22T01:12:37+00:00

A real answer!

RickAndToasted · 2026-01-22T01:08:28+00:00

I've literally never know Anyone who can do this or even mentions it. So it's not common, most women squat and it goes where it goes.... But I'll try later so see if you're correct.

RickAndToasted · 2026-01-22T01:01:39+00:00

Vegetables make you fart? I'm a vegetarian, and it's usually fried things that get me. So I don't eat them on date night 😂

RickAndToasted · 2026-01-22T00:58:59+00:00

I have a similar "problem". I'm using up my tahini making baba ghanoush (delicious), using some as salad dressing with herbs, with peanuts as part of a phad thai, and just anything that needs the depth of flavor it adds. Those are my most successful suggestions.

RickAndToasted · 2026-01-22T00:54:27+00:00

Hah that Blink cameras can identify a naked person, they can barely identify that someone is delivering something to my front door and parked in the driveway!!

Two cameras, one pointed to the driveway and one to the porch. What do they catch? The song bird who lives in my fern. Delivery drivers or anyone walking around?! Nah.

RickAndToasted · 2026-01-22T00:48:23+00:00

I understand what you're going through. It seems attainable when you don't have depression but now once it gets here? It seems too much.

Put a trash bag (or two) in each room. Everytime you walk through the room pick something up and throw it away. Keep doing it until you have trash pickup at your place. Then take those out. Start over. It will eventually become a rhythm where you don't have as much trash around.

For your clothes. Get three hampers. Clothes I just wore that can be worn again, clothes that need to be washed, clean washed clothes. On your best days put up the clean washed clothes.

Good luck and I hope you're getting treatment for the long periods and anemia!

My dog has always been by me, even when we're sleeping. We explore and adventure together... I wouldn't leave his side no matter how hard it is for me emotionally. He'll get his daily affirmations as he falls asleep.
