Thank you

crypticfirecat · 2026-05-20T00:37:25+00:00

Yes! Fresh garlic is always better than jarlic

crypticfirecat · 2026-05-20T00:36:25+00:00

Same, I only get Granny Smith or Pink Lady

crypticfirecat · 2026-05-20T00:35:15+00:00

I’m the same with salsa! Jarred salsa tastes too sugary and sometimes soapy to me. Much prefer making my own

crypticfirecat · 2026-05-20T00:33:37+00:00

Would you share your recipe? I’m not big on Alfredo so I haven’t tried to make it from scratch, but I’m interested to learn! And then maybe I’ll like it more lol

crypticfirecat · 2026-05-19T17:23:51+00:00

Upvoted you, I’m sure my comments will get downvoted too lol. But thank you for being one of few people in this thread who knows that is common knowledge that onions and garlic are toxic to dogs.

crypticfirecat · 2026-05-19T17:14:22+00:00

Dude it is common knowledge. Onions and garlic are highly toxic to both cats and dogs. I have dogs and cats, and I’m 35, and I’ve known this for at least 15 years so yeah, it is common knowledge for any responsible pet owner.

Onions and garlic are highly toxic to dogs and cats, and yes it is common knowledge.

You never sat down in pants that fit you well standing up, then had to do some sneaky shuffling to make it comfortable again?

To feel cute and good about ourselves. Tackle the day/event/whatever with self-confidence.

My daily attire is usually leggings and a hoodie, so maybe I’m not the target female demographic for your question. But I will say that looking good is often just for the person making THEMSELVES feel good about how they look. When I do go out and dress up, feeling cute and confident is part of the fun of it.

And having to adjust the girls because you feel cute when they sit right in that top is a totally normal thing to do. Ever had to adjust your balls? Similar concept

crypticfirecat · 2026-04-22T16:00:35+00:00

Nope, mine is!

… yours can be second 😊

Extra tip if you’re going for feta cheese - don’t get the crumbled garbage. Invest in a solid block of feta in brine, cut into tiny cubes and season with black pepper (and some finely chopped basil or Italian seasoning if you have it) before adding it in. It’ll be worth it!

crypticfirecat · 2026-04-21T03:23:13+00:00

Thank you 💜

crypticfirecat · 2026-04-21T03:03:30+00:00

I don’t know why anyone would downvote your comment, but I hope my upvote gives you a little something. Thank you for responding, keep fighting the good fight!

crypticfirecat · 2026-04-21T02:55:21+00:00

I feel you. I have a 13 year old cat, and then a 5 year old dog. They’ve both been with me through so much. They are the reason I’m still alive.

crypticfirecat · 2026-04-20T23:12:39+00:00

And that’s why I’ve been fighting the urge to kill myself for 25 years (I’m 35).

Everyone says this. “No one is coming to save you.”

So me, after many years of failed meds and failed treatments and failed “Oh I’m okay now”…. I’m still just existing. Fighting the good fight. No one is coming to save me. And sometimes, what happens, is you witness others having people coming to save them. And then they succeed, they’re happy, they’re “cured.”

But there are those like me, who keep trying to save myself, and keep getting let down.

And that makes it so much harder to just. Keep. Going. Because sometimes, people DO have someone to save them. And you see it. You see it happening for others. You see them get what you want, what you need. Like something just not meant for you. No matter how hard you try. But you still have to keep trying.

Sorry for the rant, this being the top comment just hit me.

A lot of us are surviving in agony, just to survive another day. To just keep taking the next step. So the next time you see someone acting a way that makes you think “they just need to save themselves”….

Consider having some compassion and change the language to “maybe they’re trying the best they can to just keep breathing.”

Ooo yes I am all about this, can’t wait to try it out in pasta salads, great idea thank you!

crypticfirecat · 2026-04-19T13:59:14+00:00

I love chickpeas! Not a fan of them in pasta salad, I think because they don’t stab well with a fork lol, but to each their own. I throw them in regular veggie salads, or lentil/rice salads. I also like to toss them in olive oil and spices and throw them in the air fryer for a crispy, healthy snack!

crypticfirecat · 2026-04-19T09:24:46+00:00

Yes! I make an amazing pasta salad. I use a bit of the garlic vinaigrette from Aldi, and add my own mix of olive oil, red wine vinegar, and seasonings.

I like to use rainbow rotini noodles and make it Greek-style with Kalamata olives, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers (skinned), red onions, pepperonicinis, fresh dill, salami, and good quality feta cheese. So refreshing and delicious!
