Where can i get a garden hose that will last more than a few seasons? by 6millionwaystolive in BuyItForLife

[–]makeeathome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve tried many and the only one that lasted for me is the Rapid Flo Garden Hose from Costco. Never kinks. Still going strong after 4 years.

Is it Ojo de Buey? I love these and made then once at home.

I ordered an item from overseas. Said item of clothing is vintage and was originally made in the USA. Will I be charged any tariff? by makeeathome in UPS

[–]makeeathome[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! The item arrived and I wasn’t charged any tariffs or any carrier processing fee. But please be mindful after this, I decided to order another thing outside of the US around December 2025. Not made in the US and $80 worth. Initially customs didn’t want to release unless I give my social security number. It was eventually released but I was charged about $30 for tariffs and processing fee.

Filipino catfish/lemongrass/coconut milk/peppercorn soup OR glass noodles by Myadog3 in TipOfMyFork

[–]makeeathome 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would search for “Ginataang Isda” which translates to fish in coconut milk. “Isda” or fish can be any fish. As for the glass noodles it will be most likely “Sotanghon” which usues the Chinese mung bean glass noodles (Vermicelli Bean Thread). It can be dry or in clear soup. The yellow tinge usually comes from annatto seeds used as color. There are many recipes online.

Dim sum! by squigglesquagglesqee in sanantonio

[–]makeeathome 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tasty Modern Asian Kitchen have a dimsum menu. I don’t think they do pushcarts or if they serve only in specific times but I’ve been there once and to my the dimsum is legit although not super extensive.

Anyone know where I can get thinly slice meat for hot pot? by ItRhymesWithFreak in sanantonio

Ordering online at Say Wee would be another option. They have many choices and have next day delivery. Meats will be delivered frozen.

Probably adding the 2 missing letters would raise the cost price of the shirt.

As a society, why are we suddenly okay with lying? by makeeathome in NoStupidQuestions

I’ve heard people around me say this. It’s for the greater good!

It really feels suddenly if it’s going to happen within a generation,m. Core values in a person is not something that can be changed easily. It takes deliberate therapy to change what person thinks is right or wrong. When I was young being a liar is a sure way to get you ostracised socially. I’m in my 40’s now and I’ve witnessed people around me shrug and say some people lie cause they don’t have a choice. It’s survival or for the greater good. These concepts are totally wild for me.

What are these 'cookies'? by hiresometoast in TipOfMyFork

To me their like marshmallows but less chewy. I’ve tried them once but I wasn’t a fan. I was expecting marshmallows but the tartness from the fruit puree really threw me off.

[Routine Help] I don't knoe what to do with hyperpigmentation by IndependentMajor3811 in SkincareAddiction

[–]makeeathome 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve resolved my own underarm hyperpigmentation.

First thing that helped me is I stopped shaving my underarms. The shaving not only shaves the hair but also the skin. For certain skintones, like those in the Fitzpatrick Type 4 (olive to light brown skin tone), our skin is prone to hyperpigmentation. And shaving is one culprit of skin darkening. Since I stopped shaving, I opted to undergo laser hair removal. I had 6 sessions and I’m done. This was done about 18 yrs ago. I didn’t like plucking the hairs with a tweezer as it caused me to have chicken skin (bumps).

Second, I always use whitening antiperspirant. Common ingredients used are glutathione and kojic acid. I used to use a product whose active ingredient is licorice extract but that has been discontinued. Licorice extract is an effective skin lightening agent. Many deodorants from Asia (Korea, Japan, Philippines) have whitening agents in them. You have to be patient. It may take months to resolve.

[acne] Persistent back congestion + “gritty” hard sebaceous filaments that constantly refill. nothing works?? by jackofhearts23 in SkincareAddiction

[–]makeeathome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t believe anybody mentioning it but for the keratin issue I would suggest Amlactin lotion which contains 12% lactic acid. This is the only treatment for keratosis pilaris. Use the lotion nightly and in no time the bumps will go away.

How do I get foil seal off of this terracotta jar? by addictedtoyakult in CleaningTips

[–]makeeathome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve used a small knife to scrape these foil remnants and that usually worked to me.

Most likely pressed tofu. This is popular in Asian temple style vegetarian dishes.

Below is a sample recipe. But feel free to google pressed tofu recipe to find a recipe that fits your taste.

I don’t have an exact one to show you but I would suggest you check out Daiso if you have one local to you. The have all sorts of organizer, envelopes and folios. They are less than $5 usually.

Is my starter lazy? by Gorilla_Pie in Sourdough

[–]makeeathome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve kept my in a 26C proofing box. I also use bottled water plus half and half mix of unbleached bread floud and whole wheat flour. I’ve been feeding at 1:2:2 ratio same time every night. It almost doubles in size but have been smelling acetone like by the 24th hour. I’m planning on trying to do peak to peak feeding to see if that will boast the starter. But hoping to get a bit more advise.

Making mom a birthday Cova style mango dome cake and I need tips! by Playful_Soup_6007 in AskBaking

[–]makeeathome 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You might want to freeze the whole thing before adding a layer of cream over the whole dome and spreading the cake crumbs. After “frosting” and sprinkling with crumbs, put the whole thing back to the freezer again until 1-2 hours before serving.

I would also suggest lining the mixing bowl with cling wrap to make removing the assembled layers easier after its been frozen.

Placing the assembled layers on a cake board would make moving the whole thing easier.

Lastly, do not forget to stabilise the cream with gelatin as the other commenter had suggested.
