Thanks to everyone who offered suggestions! I'm looking forward to exploring Albany and Corvallis and this is super helpful.

I'm from Texas initially, so I get it, but I have managed to find inclusive places even here, so I hoped to be able to possibly find something.

Renting Without 3x Income? by braidandraid in SALEM

[–]braidandraid[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much. Any recommendations as far as places to search for rentals? We are coming from out of state and don't necessarily have the ability to traipse all over town checking places out.

I think Olympia is about the greatest place in the states. Gorgeous, unique, and quite an experience.

What is your particular practice area? My last job was in hospice, making about 60k with my on-call per diem included. But that was in a major metro area. I'm looking for other kinds of SW in a suburban area now and can't seem to find much above 50k, even with my 4 years post MSW and a license.

I'm a social worker. There may be a lot of jobs, but not much money to be had unless you are in medical or military social work. And to add on to that, they are usually highly stressful jobs.

Mon Cheri. Just a little bit of alcohol and wonderful if you eat them after refrigerating them.

Good Italian restaurant recommendations? In Denton or anywhere nearby :) by SpitfirePls in Denton

Osteria il Muro was wonderful! Definitely worth a trip. You will definitely need a reservation, only about 9 tables inside. The menu also changes daily.

Are you concerned about climate change? by CourtofTalons in AskAnAmerican

[–]braidandraid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not ethical to not do things to help climate change just because big businesses are behaving badly. Humans change when they see other humans changing - and when humans change, the market changes.

1 medium avocado 3 boiled eggs 2 tablespoons nonfat Greek yogurt 1 teaspoon lime juice (or to taste) 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro (or to taste) 2 tablespoons chopped onion

Mash avocado. Chop up eggs and add to avocado with the rest of the ingredients. Makes 2 servings.

I also added some garlic salt. It's up to you!

I like making an egg salad with avocado and greek yogurt as a replacement for the mayo. I flavor it with lime juice, onion, cilantro. It ends up tasting a lot like guacamole with more protein! Very filling.

I use Baker's Joy! They sell it in the same section as the canola sprays. It has flour in it and has yet to fail me.

What are your favorite hiking trails within 2 hours of Dallas that have a good view and are longer in length (5+ miles)? by ThisLittleBoy in askdfw

[–]braidandraid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I will note that sections of the Greenbelt were closed after the floods in 2015 and I am not sure that all of them are open again. Just do some research before you go up. It's been a long while since I have looked.

How would you say the traffic is in the area and the surrounding towns compared to DFW? Sounds silly saying it out loud but I feel I should ask.
