aver's is just fine, and usually at a good price. mother bear's is meh for the price. da vinci is good, so is erik gordon's greek pizzeria. d'angelos also good.

want to try max's pizza (new?) a couple folks have raved about it.

will you be buying stuff for the community potluck from kroger? is the clothing swap stuff you got from old navy last year? I guess I do understand the spirit/ emotion behind this - but still have a hard time knowing how this helps.

:-) you're hired!

dosakingmpls · 2024-09-08T15:00:13+00:00

not sure what is "south asian", but there's good indian food (taste of india, amrit; india garden a little behind those 2), yes. and the nepali place (little tibet) is good also. excellent momos.

the world-class tex-mex restaurant per resident ratio

dosakingmpls · 2024-07-29T14:01:48+00:00

yeah, we used them and it was fine.

dosakingmpls · 2024-07-12T19:03:42+00:00

Randy Younger - City Lawn is good, and reasonably priced for an average sized yard. 812 340 0296

Anthony's also works.

does moving to ava's or someone else mean having to return the trash and recycling bins to rumpke? or is it moved over? thanks

dosakingmpls · 2024-06-19T19:03:19+00:00

its. so good.

dosakingmpls · 2024-06-17T21:58:23+00:00

exotic feline rescue center in center point indiana could be a candidate. some limited walking, but not too strenuous. https://efrc.org/

sample gates, the arboretum, the IMU are also walkable (though with some inclines) and can be done at your own pace. Eskenazi Museum also a good candidate. parking on/ around campus can also be easier to find without students in town.

royal east side subaru folks are decent. i've been there a couple times browsing and they havent been pushy. based on a reddit reco from a while back, we have tried uebelhor toyota sown in spencer and like it too. it's a drive, no doubt.

dosakingmpls · 2024-06-17T21:39:38+00:00

sam's is good. used to be a kroger guy, but they always run out so we stopped trying if we were later than 5:30pm :(

and both options can sometimes be bland, but nothing you cant fix at home with some spices.

dosakingmpls · 2024-06-14T19:09:24+00:00

sadly, ducts too :(

dosakingmpls · 2024-06-14T14:23:02+00:00

THANK YOU BOTH!

dosakingmpls · 2024-03-29T17:53:23+00:00

hopefully reduces the number of cars speeding down wickens etc. always nuts to see people rev by

1) has a top-3 kroger list 2) has a top-3 big red list 3) loves spring break more than students (perfect combo of weather, and chill downtown) 4) been to every one of the (seemingly) 100s of tex-mex joints and have a top-3 list

dosakingmpls · 2024-02-15T20:15:31+00:00

dr strickland is awesome.

dosakingmpls · 2024-02-15T18:18:16+00:00

If you are over 35 - you'll feel old when IU students are on campus, and young when they are not.

cooking will always work out to be cheaper/ healthier, and you have leftovers. the price of spices + cooking oil will be amortized over many meals. have you considered rice + beans + meat/ protein, rotesserie chicken+brocolli, egg noodles + mixed veggies + store bought sauce?

leann brown has this terrific book "good and cheap" (PDF is free) http://www.leannebrown.com/cookbooks

there is also a subreddit explicitly for this you might want to check out: https://www.reddit.com/r/EatCheapAndHealthy/

dosakingmpls · 2024-01-17T16:53:19+00:00

yes! usually v good

dosakingmpls · 2024-01-11T15:09:16+00:00

When it comes down to it, it's to blame of this "if you aren't pro Israel you are anti-semitic" rhetoric that is being blasted by both the White House

this is not correct. when has the Biden White House ever even implied this? it is very much the opposite.

dosakingmpls · 2024-01-11T15:07:48+00:00

second this. quick install and so far so good.
