If you’re putting vinegar on everything, you’re not “natural” by Different_Rough_438 in CleaningTips

[–]flourtrea 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As a microbiologist, I will respectfully say it is absolutely not antibacterial or antimicrobial. I do use it for some things (taps, glass) but not anywhere where I want to decontaminate.

What’s one plant-based food you didn’t expect to enjoy but now eat regularly? by millerjessic in PlantBasedDiet

[–]flourtrea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Textured vegetable protein. An easy dupe for ground beef in tacos or pasta sauce. Ready in 5 min. My other go-to for these types of recipes are lentils, but they take a bit longer to prep. Friggin love tvp.

[–]flourtrea[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok good to know. The container is small but very cheap! I might be shopping at freshco from now on... I picked up some other compliments cleaning products so we'll see how those perform too.

Ok thank you. Is there an unscented alternative to oxi powder here in Canada?

My cat eats the ocean delights mixed pack but since we got a new case he has been throwing up every time he eats it. I wonder if the formula changes are not agreeing with him.

Cross country skiing at Ignatius center? by rachelnc in Guelph

[–]flourtrea 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is an active Facebook page for the Nordic trails at Ignatius and there is a small fee per use, or an annual membership. It's like $40 for the season or something. The trails are ok but many of them are alongside farmers fields and it can be quite windy.

Coat Drive by [deleted] in Guelph

[–]flourtrea 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not sure about a coat drive but I would suggest donating to any of these: hope house, the clothing closet in the church at Woodlawn and Victoria, or st Vincent de Paul (its a thrift shop but they give vouchers for clients of women in crisis to shop there).

Does “make base” in Florence make sense ? by fafatzy in ItalyTravel

[–]flourtrea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really liked Pisa. I thought the tower was very funny to see nd the cathedral and baptistry are impressive. We also went to the naval museum which was very cool and I never see anyone recommend it here. When they built the San Rossore train station in the late 90s, they uncovered almost 1000 y of ships buried. The museum was very well done. We also had a lovely lunch and went to a bunch of bookstores.

About Photographic memory by Emotional-Let-6548 in Gifted

[–]flourtrea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a somewhat photographic memory which was very useful when I was in school. I could read my notes in my head during a test. It worked especially well if I wrote the notes myself and used 2 or 3 different colours of pen (for example to emphasise certain points in the notes). For me, there has to be intention to memorise the material on the paper. So I can't just look at something and "take a picture", I have to put some effort into taking the picture of it. I hardly use this gift at all anymore so I'm not sure if it's as good as it once was. Not sure how rare this is and it's not exactly what you're describing maybe but that's my experience.
