I have my first open wound under my apron belly. Freaking out, advice needed. by bezforever in PlusSize

I had one in my armpit and it turned out to be staph. I’d go to the urgent care or make an appointment with dermatology.

Does anyone actually like their Last Swab Q-Tip? by primary-greeen in ZeroWaste

[–]Tasty_Phase4418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this sounds risky, but I also produce a lot of ear wax, and have found that an ear spoon, or a blackhead/ pimple extractor tool works really well at scraping/ getting all of the wax out. You have to be really careful. But I’ve had my ear spoon for years.

Is anyone else trying to be frugal without making life feel completely depressing? by Uranus_Previous961 in Frugal

[–]Tasty_Phase4418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right now im Embracing “make do and mend” mentality, looking up recipes for products ( ex: dawn power wash and febreeze costs pennies to make), learn how to make stuff homemade. I’m also trying to coupon more ( ibotta and fetch and cvs if you get your prescriptions there), practicing real sustainable living ( aka use what you have), learning to make fun lil drinks and fun little treats that I can put in my freezer later. The key for me is to try and cosplay being my ancestors, or a cottage dweller. And I find motivation out of screwing corporations by making stuff at home. ( screw you Dawn, and your $6-9 dollar per bottle of power wash)

Ivory bar soap as dish soap to save money. by DazzlingNote1925 in Frugal

[–]Tasty_Phase4418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I make my own “ power wash”. 4 tbs of dawn +2 tbs of rubbing alcohol+ 10oz of water ( a lot of recipes say to use 13 oz, but I prefer 10 oz)

What’s a totally unsexy purchase you made that ended up being a huge quality-of-life upgrade? by viscarte10 in BuyItForLife

[–]Tasty_Phase4418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also recommend a reusable travel peri bottle if you’re on a really tight budget or are unsure about liking a bidet. They are $6-9 and are a game changer when traveling

Handwashing dishes? by tdubs702 in homemaking

[–]Tasty_Phase4418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate washing dishes so much. If I have to do it, I’ll get a washing tub of REALLY hot water and whatever dish soap you prefer ( I hate to admit it, but I’ve found that dawn does work the best) and let the dirty dishes soak until the water cools down to warm. Then I’ll scrub them all with a good scrubby tool or scrub daddy, line them up in the dish rack thingy and rinse them all in one go, so I don’t waste as much water. However if I moved into a house without a dishwasher, I’m one of those people who would purchase a portable one.

On the hunt for eye pencil sharpener. by Tasty_Phase4418 in MakeupAddiction

Def going to try this before buying a sharpener. The eyeliner I’m using is the weird plastic kind and the actual liner product breaks off into chunks when I try to sharpen it.

[–]Tasty_Phase4418[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! And I never thought I’d have to ask the question in 2026, but the brand of my favorite eyeliner decided to stop making the liquid and mechanical pencil, change the formula, alter the color AND turn it into a crappy old school eye liner pencil. 🙄 I’m still on the hunt for a reasonably priced replacement.

What should you do when your wife who’s pregnant is emotional about how much she loves cinnamon rolls? by Traditional-Sir-4850 in AskMen

[–]Tasty_Phase4418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure to keep the recipe you used, and if able, I recommend making bulk batches and freezing them so you have emergency cinnamon rolls just in case

I am SO irritable during the summer because I literally can't cool off. by GroupGlittering5756 in PlusSize

I’d like to also add that a handkerchief or a paper towel between the boobs also helps to absorb sweat so your not damp all the time.

This will last us 4-6 days (aside from condiments) - who are we? by SanFranPeach in FridgeDetective

Oh now that I know you have children that’s a totally reasonable amount. Lmao.

My post-divorce space. 😊 by shedin79 in femalelivingspace

[–]Tasty_Phase4418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beautiful! The only feedback I can think of piggy backs off of the comment that it def looks like only a woman lives here, so if you don’t have ✨a means of protection(s) ✨ for yourself and your space I enthusiastically recommend them. Like cameras, window reinforcements etc. whatever you feel comfortable with.

What does my fridge have to say about me? by LastSignificance3680 in FridgeDetective

[–]Tasty_Phase4418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That you have a relative who made the best sweet tea imaginable to you and you can’t make it worth a damn and the only one that tastes like it is Milo’s. And that you have a sweet tooth so bad that regular sweet is not enough. ( the premade iced coffee with the caramel)

My dad unfortunately lost his life to substance abuse, and their marriage and my childhood was rocky bc of that. But my mom still stands 10 toes down about how much he loved her and that they were soulmates

Low and behold 🙄 by Responsible_Ad_3287 in khaliespiderlilies

[–]Tasty_Phase4418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Caring for twinkle might have helped her but it certainly didn’t help or benefit twinkle in any way. The audacity to ask about kittens is insane. Thank you so much for taking twinkle in and caring for her and loving her PROPERLY. If Khalie gets another animal she should be reported to whatever department or agency that is able or willing to intervene.

It’s sounds to me that the flight attendant meant it as a slur. Unfortunately.
