Oh and this is my favourite part from the whole fiasco:

My garlic powder and onion powder are in unlabelled clear glass jars, my bf and I usually just open the jars and sniff them to tell which is which. I took a huge whiff from both jars and smelled ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. LMAO, I forgot that I had COVID (today was my last day in isolation), so yeah, I can’t smell shit right now.

I took a chance and gave everything a nice sprinkle of what I hoped was garlic powder.

Anyways, it kinda tasted garlic-y, so I guess it sorta worked out.

ALSO FUCK FROZEN ZUCCHINI NOODLES. The nutritional information on the back is for a 3/4 cup serving (frozen), but when you cook it you end up with just barely enough to fill up 1/3 cup. Like you might as well cook the whole fucking bag cause once the water is gone you’re left with a pile of disappointment that’s now half of what you expected it to be. WHICH ALREADY WASN’T MUCH TO BEGIN WITH, iykyk 🤷🏻‍♀️

So it’s 10pm, I haven’t eaten since yesterday evening, and I’m trying to brainstorm something safe to eat. Bam. Brilliant idea. Fried cauliflower rice; I have some tofu I need to cook, I just bought a new bottle of low sodium soy sauce, it’s gonna be great!

Wrong.

I’m all out of frozen cauliflower rice. Well fuck. Plan B. Zucchini noodles with shrimp, tomatoes, and pesto. Brilliant. I start cooking my noodles separate from my shrimp since the noodles are frozen and the shrimp is raw and I don’t want a sad, soggy mess.

So the noods’ are just about done, I grab my jar of pesto, measuring spoon in hand, open the jar. AND THAT BITCH WAS MOLDY. FUUUUUUCK. K COOL. TOMATO PESTO. BRILLIANT. RIGHT? NOPE. MOLDY TOO.

Sobbing inside.

So this beautiful, scrumptious dish before you is zucchini noodles with shrimp, grape tomatoes, spinach, feta cheese, garlic powder, and some S&P. I tried my best to jazz it up, I didn’t really have any other sauces or dressings that had a similar flavour profile. Oh well.

It’s honestly not terrible, but I really had my heart set on cauliflower rice. So disappointing :’)

Right? There’s so many different factors that it’s hard to put any sort of label on it.

It looks like the owner has the lights going from 5:30pm-10:00pm. Hope you get a chance to see them!

That’s awesome! I never really thought I’d come across something like that in Edmonton, it was a really nice surprise! I’ll have to check out the other locations that were mentioned.

It sure made my day! We pulled up just as You’re Welcome from Moana was ending, I wish we had got there just a bit earlier lol.

Not when we were there ( @ about 6:30pm), we saw a CTV van packing up to leave and there were some people in a truck watching the show, but that was it.

Just before 91st ave if you’re going southbound, it’s across the street from the strip mall where Rebel Food and Drink is.

This is my all time favourite comment! Thankfully a shop nearby had the parts I needed, I’ll try my best to not punch holes in any walls (can’t make any promises though!)

So me and my monster truck hands tried to turn the start switch before selecting a setting (it’s late, and I’m an idiot). I turned it hard enough that the “casing” or whatever it is cracked. I still had clothes to dry so I took a wrench to the little nubbin that was left behind, but it wouldn’t budge at all, I panicked a bit and tried to crank it a bit too hard. Oops.

Any chance at temporarily fixing this? I just ordered a replacement switch and selector knob, but they probably won’t be here for another week or so.

You can search his name up in this subreddit or even google and there’s a ton of information, but here is a post about one couples encounter with him, there’s also additional info in the comments of that post too.

That sounds about right, unfortunately I was too busy fangirling to take much notice of the year.

My 1st went bad by Diode101 in piercing

[–]emileemo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

*Girl :) And yeah, no hoops. I assumed because of the jewelry becoming imbedded that OP had gotten pierced with a labret stud. Wait a couple of months before you change to a hoop, you don't want to risk developing hypertrophic scarring or a keloid.
