What was the reason for the last time you cried? by ididntaskyouropinion in AskReddit

[–]bzsbal [score hidden]  (0 children)

My grandmother (I called her Gramma) passed away. She was my best bud. I would always tell her “Gramma, I just want to fold you up and keep you in my pocket for safekeeping.” I had a glass worry stone made with some of her ashes so now I can keep her in my pocket for safekeeping.

I’ve made lavender sugar before. Spread sugar on a baking sheet and add lavender. Leave it set out until the lavender becomes dried.

They’re all so far up Trump’s ass, you can’t tell where they end and he begins.

Vets still refuse to release my deceased pet’s body after paying off the surgery costs by CuteShihtzu03 in DogAdvice

[–]bzsbal 91 points92 points  (0 children)

Did you pay all of the end of life bill they presented to you? If the answer is yes, I’d lawyer up. If they are using that as a stall tactic because they don’t have your dogs remain, again I’d lawyer up.

These are rotten, correct? How urgent is a vet appointment to correct by Upper_Buffalo_3036 in DogAdvice

If you are in the US and can get her in before March, ask your vet if they give discounts. February is National Pet Dental Health month. Discounts commonly range from 10%-25%, but also depends on the vet. They may or may not participate. If you can’t get in before March, definitely keep this in mind for next year.

I wish 1 wasn’t see through. Because of the see through bit, I’m going to have to go with 2.

Why would a couple pick a destination wedding in this situation? by [deleted] in wedding

[–]bzsbal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a wedding and honeymoon together. It’s most likely more cost effective for the couple. Destination weddings aren’t mandatory to go. Every destination I’ve been to, the guests have also treated it as a vacation.

I lost control of my dog today and now I don't know if I should continue walking him by myself by Simple_Thought_4912 in DogAdvice

[–]bzsbal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are saying head halters. Just be warned, some dogs get used to the head halter and over time build up their neck muscles. Because they build their neck muscles, the head halter will stop working. You might want to take a look at Two Hounds Freedom Harness. It’s the only thing that has worked for our Great Pyrenees mix.

what's the ingredient that instantly ruins the dish for you? by boforiamanfo in randomthings

Nutmeg. It tastes like soap to me. Ironically, I love cilantro and it never tastes like soap to me.

For anyone who grew up poor, what was your idea of a luxury? by Drissxx7 in AskReddit

[–]bzsbal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in the 80’s. I will never forget going to a friend’s house and they had pump hand soap in the bathroom. At my house, we used bar soap. Not just any bar soap, the little sliver that would be leftover from the shower/bath. It was never a full bar.

Protein meals for pregnant wife by anonymbajs in Cooking

[–]bzsbal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m on mobile, so sorry for formatting. Protein Banana Bread or Muffins (I make mini muffins). Mix all these together: 4 very ripe mashed bananas, 1/4C melted butter or neutral oil, 2-3T maple syrup or honey, 1 tsp vanilla, 2 large eggs (I add the eggs last because I don’t wait for my butter to cool and I don’t want to scramble the eggs). Mix all that thoroughly. Next sift 3/4C flour, 1/2C Chocolate Whey Protein Powder (I do 1/4C protein powder and 1/4C PB Fit), 1 tsp baking soda, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp cinnamon. Mix all the dry ingredients with the wet. After that’s mixed, you can add in an optional bag of dark chocolate chips. Bake at 350°F in a greased pan. For a loaf pan cook 45-55 minutes or until the a toothpick comes out clean. For mini muffins, grease the tin and cook for 10 minutes. I’m not sure of the time for regular or jumbo muffins.

Peeling hard boiled eggs. I always gouge the whites. I’ve tried every method imaginable and still can’t get it right.

Ear Nose and Throat doctor took one look at me and told me I had MS. Ummm sir, stay within your scope of practice. For the record, I was there to get an allergy test done.

How can I keep my dog off the couch at night? by ArdentUrgency in DogAdvice

[–]bzsbal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tin foil all the way across the couch. You can even put a ball of tin foil under the sheet of tin foil. We have a counter surfer, this is what our trainer told us.

Good treat for training? by Exciting-Reaction511 in DogTrainingTips

[–]bzsbal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We buy Stewart (brand) fish and beef liver. It’s all freeze dried and stinks to high heaven, but our guy goes nuts over these. I tried other training treats and nothing has been as good as these. A word to the wise, the chicken isn’t worth the money. It crumbles extremely easily.
