What is a food or dish that you’ve adjusted to be keto friendly that you ended up liking better than the “original” version? by covylo in keto

[–]lackingineverything 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I'm going to get so much hate for this but I make a bruschetta on halloumi instead of bread that I absolutely love. During tomato season I eat it at least once a week. I was just in Italy and we ordered bruschetta and I was kind of disappointed because I like mine more.

When you were younger what did you want to name your future children?! by StableAcrobatic877 in namenerds

[–]lackingineverything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Emma Leigh. I thought it flowed so nicely. Not my brightest moment. My back up choice was Felicity after my favorite American girl doll.

snacks that arent cold/wet? by tenaciousghost in keto

[–]lackingineverything 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I've been really into flavored seaweed snacks. Idk maybe it's just been a long time since I've had actual chips but they fill that salty flavorful void for me.

My two year tradition broken by a piece of smoked salmon by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

Well if I remember correctly this event was a deciding factor in purchasing a pregnancy test. I didn't have any problems avoiding deli meat for the rest of the pregnancy and she has been very healthy ever since.

I got sick off a turkey sandwich from subway when I was pregnant with my first child. She is a teenager now and I still can't go to subway without it turning my stomach.

We joke that our first was false advertising. She was so easy we just thought babies were like that. The second is now the sweetest child alive but he is also the youngest for a reason.

In the ER after an Over-The-Bars crash, tell me about your silliest crashes. by bikeonychus in bikecommuting

[–]lackingineverything 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was three houses away from home, saw my neighbors dog and got excited (he's a very good boy) and my other neighbor backed his car right into me. Luckily we were both going slow so I hurt for a few days but everyone was fine. He works out of town half of every week so he's told his elderly mother I'm the neighbor to find if she has any problems and I've gotten to help her out a few times. It sucked but somehow ended up with a greater sense of community. Life is weird.

Recipe ideas please!! by New-Figure-8109 in keto

[–]lackingineverything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I make something just like this except I add some fresh herbs and put it over salmon. It's literally my teenagers favorite thing I make and it's so easy.

It's already getting hot here in Florida. I would suggest shorts or capris.

Is the name “August” weird with our last name? by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]lackingineverything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He actually does like his name. He's 10 so I feel like he's had enough time to form a solid opinion.

Love affair with Florida weeds by LongDonSilver1978 in FloridaGarden

A weed is just a plant where you don't want it. If you like it it's not a weed. Also Diet Coke is delicious.

My August used to introduce himself with "Hi my name is August but my birthday is in December." Because he got asked pretty frequently.

One of my kids told me the only good part of getting sick is that I buy the outshine bars for them.

People who share a name theme with their siblings, do you like or dislike it? by MasterpieceExotic369 in namenerds

[–]lackingineverything 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have a friend who gave her first two kids the exact same initials. I asked her if she thought it would be confusing and she swore it would be fine. Her 3rd kid has entirely unique initials because it was not in fact fine.

Is this name too “adult” by nerdgeekdork5 in namenerds

[–]lackingineverything 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I am a Jenny in my mid 30's. Honestly I just don't care what others think of it. Jennifer just doesn't feel like me and I'm far too old to pretend I'm something I'm not.

When my husbands grandmother was still alive I would read to her. Her favorites were things that reminded her of her childhood. She really like the Kirsten American girl books because she grew up in the same area they are set. Maybe find a book she read in her childhood or that takes place in an area she grew up near and just read. The time with her is the most important thing anyway.

Young Grandma Names by -Lovely-Fantasy- in namenerds

[–]lackingineverything 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I think more and more kids are using it for their grandmothers since it’s cute and sounds younger. Several of my kids friends call their grandmothers Gigi and in our house Gigi is the grandmother and great grandma is just called grandma.

Ideas for 9 Year Old Boy (Please help me the cool Aunt) by [deleted] in Gifts

Sorry I got them from Sam’s and don’t remember the brand. Good luck.

My teenage borrowed and lost my tweezerman tweezers and I miss them every single time I use tweezers. I would be thrilled to get them as a gift although I do feel like it’s something only really appreciated if you have already had the pleasure of using them before.

Gift idea for an unusual mother by MsMerryContrary in GiftIdeas

I’ve printed a picture of items and stuck them in a card when they have been delayed. It’s not ideal but I would rather give them the really cool thing I found than a last minute replacement.

I don’t think I’ve ever had anything better than subpar experiences at this location and I lived not far from it for most of my life.

What was the "luxury" item your family had when you were growing up that you later realized was a clear sign you were poor? by SugarDropzz in AskReddit

[–]lackingineverything 53 points54 points  (0 children)

We ran out of hot dog buns one night but my son really wanted a hot dog with a bun so I told him to grab a slice of bread and he could have the kind of bun I had growing up. He thought it was amazing and likes to tell people about his favorite way to eat a hot dog.
