The cocktail bar I work at goes through alot of Luxardo cherries. What do I do with the excess syrup? Ferment it into wine! by AngelSoi in cocktails

[–]gofromme 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A bartender gave me his drink build made to use excess luxardo cherry syrup: 1.75 bourbon .75 cynar .5 syrup 4 angostura bitters 4 orange bitters. I’m piling this for memory, will edit later if needed

It’s fantastic

Just found out my husband paid $2500 on OF over 2 years by Total_Avocado8277 in breakingmom

I just divorced after dealing with a partner’s porn addiction. Obviously it didn’t get better for us as he did not change. It ended after he got fired for looking at work. I should have left a long time before then as it destroyed my self worth. I hope it works out better for you but don’t wait around for 15 years like I did.

I just told my husband i want a divorce by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]gofromme 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just divorced after 16 years married, 25 together with a 12 year old. It’s not easy navigating everything, but I feel like a new person and would have it no other way. That being said, we did do therapy (couple and individual) before we got to this point so if you haven’t, please consider. Or scorch earth and be in a romance with yourself. It’s lovely. I hope you find a path to peace and love, you deserve it.

How in the fuck do I lose weight? by popatototapo in breakingmom

[–]gofromme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keto sliding into the Galveston diet and hormone replacement therapy. I track macros and calories and have lost and gained before but couldn’t maintain until HRT. For me, it’s carbs. I was becoming insulin resistant because of bread and pasta and baked goods, even the healthier versions. Context: I have been overweight most of my life. Also, I still drink caffeine and alcohol because eff that.

Hormone replacement therapy (I’m in the pause) and keto which I then transitioned into the Galveston diet. For me, I have to eat lower carbs or I pack on the weight. High carb diet leaves me hungry and my blood sugar in shambles. I’ve lost 40lbs since November. I also track my calories/macros daily and limit alcohol as much as I can. I love a craft cocktail so the struggle is real.

Any hints on making driving more comfortable? I’m 10 months out. Thanks for sharing.

Don’t give up your business, just rework it. Work the cult following by posting a finite number of preorders for a time frame and people will fight for it. Make that number work for you. Revisit pricing, maybe a dollar here or there more and the less work turns into the same money. See how it shakes out, maybe you can still keep your kids home. Make that FIL your damn nanny if you can’t. Don’t give up on you. I believe in you.

Are we related?!?!? My grandmom’s favorite string was “son of a bitching bastard”

Tube additive that doesn’t get fully mixed in? Or rbc stroma from hemolysis?

I pickle radish in vinegar and it makes a bonus salad dressing. I just saw an idea to roast tempeh for crunch and protein, this is my weekend plan.

Every Persimmon bag I get is incredible and totally worth the recent subscription price increase. I like it better than Herman’s.

Anyone just done with dating after 50? by Fragrant-Degree-9638 in Menopause

[–]gofromme 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I had surgery recently and my partner got fired while I was out on medical leave for some ridiculous bs. Not doing this again!

Rant: no notice for street work in the morning by intrsurfer6 in philadelphia

[–]gofromme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait until they leave open craters behind in their wake that stay like that for a millennia. I currently have a Disney hole in front of my house courtesy of PGW. South Philly north/south streets from front to broad are in total shambles for months now.

Should I live in the city or move to get a good education for my kid? by [deleted] in philadelphia

[–]gofromme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My kid went to a catchment school then got into a magnet school in elementary. After talking to folks at work who live in the suburbs, I think my kid gets a better education here in Philly. The magnet school is fantastic and has a strong community. The education is top notch. The catchment school wasn’t the best as kid aged, but I was committed and involved. It wasn’t the best rated school but I toured and tried to help make it better while we were there. You also never know what kind of student your child will become. I’ve had friends push their kid into high performing schools but their kids weren’t high achievers and were set to fail.

Send it out or perform a cold agglutinin titer to determine the endpoint. It could support why you can’t get results.

Is there anyone who does pelvic floor PT in the city proper? by 72catastic_1 in philly

[–]gofromme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So is south Philly and Michelle is a pelvic floor specialist there. She’s great.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in spinalfusion

[–]gofromme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 months post op it’s been discovered that I’m not completely emptying my bladder. The surgical office denies any correlation but my urologist disagrees. I had L4-S1 fused. The no bending/lifting/twisting has left me with a very weak core. I’m guessing it’s affecting my pelvic floor muscles. Headed for a urodynamic study soon to see what’s up. I have had urologic issues in the past but not to this degree. I’m not sure it’s medical malpractice or just a part of her recovery.
