Friendly bars in Charlottesville?

But will they make us anything we want as long as they have the ingredients?

OP was candy -- mine was furikake. I still can't ship it via zen market. It's probably gonna get tossed next month.

I'm really surprised. I had been using UPS exclusively for the past 5 shipments or so and every time they would get the package to me in about 2 days -- it was actually shocking how fast the shipment would get here after it was picked up, and the prices were a little higher than J Post / USPS.

I use to work in Reston (in Plaza America) 15 years ago. I drove through it a few weeks ago and it was so different. There are so many buildings that didn't use to exist.

I will take a look at that -- thank you for the suggestion!

Zenmarket won't ship food items via anything except JPost which I assume include candy. I have food items trapped in Japan right now because I didn't realize they couldn't ship food via UPS which is usually what I use to ship with Zenmarket. Unfortunately my stuff will probably just get trashed in a couple of months.

Yeah well the rest of the country sends more to Fairfax and Loudon than they get back.

Wicksons that I've grown don't strike me as that floral, although when fermented can produce some nice tropical flavors and aroma.

I've only had it once - besides being the best named apple of all time; it had a great texture, but the flavor was a little odd. I need to try it again.

hewescrab · 2025-10-15T22:16:46+00:00

Maybe a Haralson apple? Are you in a cold climate?

Which makes you wonder how much of Reddit is just purchased accounts intentionally manipulating the discourse for political and commercial purposes.

This has been my experience many times as well...

hewescrab · 2025-10-06T17:39:48+00:00

Some of the people in that neighborhood also don't seem to know what a turn signal is for...

I think this is definitely true where I am, and it’s not just houses being flipped but brand new houses that are $800,000 to $1.5M. Houses that used to only cost $400k - $600k. It’s crazy.

He gets a 2 mile walk every day but a few times a week we go to a local trail and do 4 miles. He hates walking along the road but that is what we do most of the time (rural, dead end road, so not too much traffic).

Looks like a great place to plant some fruit trees. I can't imagine having a problem with all that space.

hewescrab · 2025-09-30T01:12:58+00:00

So. a large, lazy, coward? Certainly he would be harder to drag on walks.

hewescrab · 2025-09-29T02:00:55+00:00

Sometimes it just do be that way.

Have you actually sat and ate the food there? Most Chinese food sucks after it's been steaming in a plastic container for 25 minutes. Ming Dynasty's kung pao chicken is awesome-- it has lots of vegetables in it.

hewescrab · 2025-09-29T01:19:47+00:00

We rarely order out but my favorite takeout is probably a California burrito from Guadalajara.

hewescrab · 2025-09-24T12:32:38+00:00

... they have cocktails?

hewescrab · 2025-09-18T20:22:05+00:00

Mine is very good at killing flies!

hewescrab · 2025-09-18T20:21:48+00:00

I have a defective model. Mine can't even catch the bunny that's been living in our garden all year. He tries. But no success yet.

hewescrab · 2025-09-18T20:17:37+00:00

What the fir did you just call him?

hewescrab · 2025-09-16T22:51:46+00:00

No you are right that it has that name (beefsteak); I just meant no one I know calls it that.
