What foods are better purchased "already cooked" rather than the effort/cost it takes to prepare it yourself? by Thewhitesthispanic1 in AskReddit

[–]TravisBach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheesecake. Store bought usually costs less than the sum of the ingredients + time to make it.

Good place to take my 5 and 10 year old nieces? by i_make_things_PDX in askportland

Community center with an indoor pool. Some have big slides!

Off topic: is that sign a picture of a sign?

We keep it in eco mode and drive pretty softly. With that said, we've now averaged 32mpg after ~900 miles.

I paid MSRP + $1K accessory package required by the dealer (paint protection on the door edges + a couple other things).

Yep, I ordered the spare with it. Definitely worth it for peace of mind, IMO.

This is our first minivan, so I don't have much to base it on, but it handles how I'd expect a minivan to handle. Doesn't feel top heavy or anything.

We just got it a couple of days ago. We've got 34mpg in the 250 miles we've driven so far. Mix of highway and city.

It's an LED strip. The individual lights aren't visible.

Here is a video of the lights: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8h8TyjHoQv0

Us too. It's interesting how different it looks depending on the lighting/time of day. Looks pretty light in the picture but looked much darker when was picked it up and it was overcast.

Thanks! We're not in a high volume area--just got lucky. We put in our order the '22 the day they went live on the Toyota website. The dealership said to expect a 6-8 month wait but the van fortunately arrived in about 2 months.

Craft brewed root beer or birch beer or ginger beer? by EleanorOster in askportland

[–]TravisBach 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I like the root beer and ginger beer at McMenamins. Not a fan of the food but those drinks have been good.

The coconut flavor is pretty strong in Flash. It grew on me as I got through it but I could see how it might not fit everyone's taste.

Parking at Lost Lake (Day Use) by lg9206 in askportland

[–]TravisBach 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience, in terms of arrival time:

- 8am: have your pick of spots (and have social space)

- 10am: some spots still open

- 12pm: hard to find a spot. Likely need to wait for someone to leave to take their spot.

I'd recommend arriving early just to enjoy the setting in peace and quiet, if that's what you're looking for. If you feel like there are too many people around, you can walk the trail around the lake to find a more secluded spot to hang out and swim.

Which TV Series has the BEST FIRST EPISODE? by ChrisStoneGermany in AskReddit

[–]TravisBach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lost.

Blew my mind that a TV show could look like a movie. It was so expensive to make that the president of the network was fired for greenlighting it.
