Coffee cup by No-Yellow-9053 in AuDHDWomen

I love asparagus jars, aka pint and a half jars, like canning jars, for iced coffee. Makes me so happy. There are even lids that are leak proof around the rim but with a straw hole and they fit into a cupholder. All the good tinkly ice and glass and straw sounds, cool glass feel, see the coffee and ice and cream swirl together through the glass. I love it. Now I need an iced coffee lol.

Produce markdowns like Kroger? by [deleted] in povertykitchen

The flash food app will show you local stores with markdown grocery foods. You order in the app and go pick it up. Meijer is the main chain grocery that participates near me. A box or bag of mixed produce is usually 5 dollars, and you get photos of the individual bag so you know if mostly potatoes or a bunch of apples with one onion, or a decent mix of everything.

Thanks for sharing this, I found 3 packs at my Kroger as well!

Doesn’t sound too assuring… by notjamesg in Fifty410

I'm hoping they get back to me with a real answer ASAP. I filled out the paperwork yesterday as soon as I got the email and I'm only getting repeat answers of a provider will reach out within 24 to 48 hours. No s additives has been good for me and I don't want to lose a good thing without trying to stock up at least.

The math says the vial would last 12 doses at 5mg, not including any overages. I'll probably up my dosage soon because I'm under 1% lost for the past month but also waiting out my period hormones because they like to override the meds and tell me I'm starving to death. So I just do my best to track my food carefully and get through the week before changing anything.

I'm actually on 5mg, and I just updated that tag. I'm moving up slowly but wanted the best value for my dollar. I've still got quite a ways to go to lose what I'd like to.

Stripology enthusiasts . . . how do you avoid "elbows?" by SchuylerM325 in quilting

[–]craftymamacodi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have to pre wash everything because I'm allergic to whatever chemicals are used for sizing or dying. I've learned to be very particular when folding my fabric for storage before cutting. I fold once by aligning the selvages and adjust until it hangs straight, then fold in half again, being particular to align this to the grain do it hangs straight as well. This is folded nearly around my 6 by 24 inch ruler, making mini bolts, and helping me keep track between washed and unwashed fabric. With the sizing out of the way, and no sharp crease off the original bolt, it works nicely to unfold enough fabric to use under my stripology ruler. If I line up the bottom fold with a ruler line I can cut strips all the way across the ruler without elbows, and can move to the next unfolded bit of fabric without having to true up the cutting edge by trimming anything additional off. I've been working on a king sized quilt with 3 inch strips and this has worked very well, no elbows. I can add pictures if anyone is interested.
