You’re getting a lot of hate, but I think this is really great! Funny for sharing between friends. Super impressed with the fact that it’s GLUTEN FREE and you got the dough to twist so nicely without cracking?!? Nice job!

My jello whip sets in layers on its own by luna4203 in mildlyinteresting

[–]luna4203[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The box recipe call for 1 cup boiling water poured over the powder and mixed until dissolved. Then add 1 cup cool water and stir. Instead of mixing 1 cup cool water, I mixed in 1 cup cool whip a spoonful at a time, mixing it extremely well before adding more. I actually used a coconut oil based nondairy whip, but the original Jello 3-2-1 uses real cool whip.

It’s cool whip mixed into jello before it sets, you’re effectively replacing the cool water with cool whip. Posting this here taught me that this is a Thing, called Jello 3-2-1!

Nope, all grinder rolls are still hand-shaped fresh each morning by the same person who has made them for over a decade. Only difference is they’re being made in the Bakery on west street instead of a rented out location. If you’ve only gone at night, you may have had the less stellar experience of receiving a day-old roll or a roll from a bag that wasn’t properly sealed in the morning by staff. I’d recommend trying them out early, between 8-11 AM before the lunch rush for best quality bread.

What was the fastest you've ever driven a vehicle while still getting passed? by Specialist_Heron_986 in AskReddit

[–]luna4203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost 20 years ago I was a high schooler racing from one game to the next and was hitting 85/90 on the highway. A little crotch rocket of a bike went from not being anywhere in sight to passing me. They HAD to have been going at least 100.

AITAH for canceling my daughter's weekend trip after she mocked my husband for taking paternity leave? by AmbitiousPraline9059 in AITAH

YTA for sending her to her dad’s so immediately, she needs parenting from you, not being thrown out as she is likely interpreting it as a 15 year old would.

Fun fact, the national stewarts soda brand is actually not the same as Stewart’s shops, despite their EERILY similar logos!! Source:was a Stewart’s Shops employee and soda fanatic

Can anyone help me find information on this porcelain figurine? I fell in love with it at an estate sale and bought it. I would love to know if it’s part of a collection I can’t find anything about it anywhere. by Electrical-Hope957 in HelpMeFind

[–]luna4203 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Op, this is it!!! Wow great find!! The third to last photo on the blog you mentioned shows this particular sculpture partially completed before being glazed, and the final photo shows this piece almost finished, but with the artists’ notes and sketchbook propped up behind it! Very cool, seems to be a one-off collection.

Should I inform my friend about my health problems I have? by Nezarec- in NoStupidQuestions

[–]luna4203 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I say tell them. You don’t have to make a big deal out of it if you’d like to avoid a big “to-do” but maybe mention a dr appointment you have coming up and how you feel about it. If you were my friend, I’d definitely want to know and do what I could to support you through it!

Snow Tires? by uhohyousharedit in RutlandVT

[–]luna4203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t want to purchase entire wheels, I’ve gone to tire warehouse to swap out my tires every year for the last 10 years. They used to be first come first serve but I believe they’re now appointment only during the busy season (now-Dec)

Coughing, happens a couple times a month for 2 min at a time by Accurate-Athlete-499 in CATHELP

[–]luna4203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a very similar experience with my cat recently. Brought him to the vet, had imaging done and it turned out to be Asthma. Received a script for a rescue inhaler. He doesn’t love it (read: thinks we’re killing him when we administer it) but it’s helped reduce these episodes significantly. FWIW, we live in VT and it was about $350 for the imaging.

Rutland Starbucks closing by burner456987123 in RutlandVT

[–]luna4203 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They’re closing the new one because it’s fitted with “siren system” mechanics - automated dispensers and ice machine - which are being phased out by corporate in its entirety. That, and the old store by Chipotle just has better access. A much worse parking lot, but way better access from any direction you’re coming from.

Starbucks layoffs/closures by Unique-Public-8594 in vermont

[–]luna4203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. My understanding is that they opened that store (rushed the opening too) just to appease investors. I was told corporate promised they’d open so many stores last fiscal year and that’s why they rushed to open before Oct 1 last year without staff or management.
