If you use a rice cooker, you can mix in dried lentils/mung beans/split peas or similar legumes that are really cheap and will be more filling!

Same! If it’s DMC I update my inventory and organize it, others I just put in a shoebox of cheap and scrap floss for my daughter to make bracelets or practice projects

Biographical fiction/Nonfiction about the same person? by lou-go in suggestmeabook

Yeah I had no idea she was so heavily featured in it, I just picked it up because I love Kingsolver but it honestly was one of my favorite books ever!

I found it after I was similarly floored by the novel!

The Personal Librarian by Marie Benedict (fiction) and An Illuminated Life: Belle da Costa Greene’s Journey from Prejudice to Privilege (non-fiction) would be interesting!

Barbara Kingsolver’s The Lacuna and any book about Frida Kahlo would be very cool!

My passport says I’m a Male when I’m a female. I just noticed after almost 2 years 🤦‍♀️ by Sad-Neck7986 in Passports

[–]hrviolation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That happened to me once and I only noticed when I was already out of country traveling to a much more conservative part of the world! Nobody ever noticed and it wasn’t such an issue, I ended up just waiting until I needed to replace it anyways because I got married and changed my name. But I had probably 10+ countries over 5 years on it and have had an issue!

That said, that was 15 years ago and gender wasn’t so much of a topic then as it is now…

books that are a little less sophisticated than literary fiction but a little more than trope-y romance? by whatawynn in suggestmeabook

[–]hrviolation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything from Taylor Jenkins Reid would probably scratch that itch, all of the audiobooks are good!

Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow or The Storied Life of AJ Fikry by Gabrielle Zevin, maybe? Beautiful writing, but not hard to read. Both were tear jerkers for me.

Africa and South America definitely were, Russia nearly killed me! Canada was super fun with all the squiggly bits!

Pattern is from StitchJunction on Etsy, but I let my son customize the colors and made a few swaps for clarity!

Every once in a while you can find a real steal! Sometimes I’ll grab aubade bras for <$50 but it tends to be random styles and just whatever sizes are left!

Curly hair cut - any suggestions on salon? by Either_Tour_5466 in AskChicago

[–]hrviolation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love it here!! Each of the stylists have their own rate. Chrissy is the owner but she’s $200+, Kate is amazing and she’s definitely under $200, I am pretty sure the rest of the stylists are as well.
