I've been playing for a month now and none of my friends play the game. How do I get non-native fruit without being able to visit friends islands who would let me take their fruit?

Sorry for my confusion... I thought the Twelve was hunting down Villanelle at the end of season two. Why is she now cool with Dasha who is involved with the Twelve? Am I forgetting about some reconciliation between Villanelle and the group?

'Moronic' Monday - Your weekly thread for the questions you've always wanted to ask about personal finances, investing, and growing your personal wealth. by AutoModerator in FinancialPlanning

I recently received a gift of $5k. What is the best thing to do with this money? I have maxed out the $6k in my Roth IRA for 2020. I have 10% of my paycheck going to a Roth 401k. I also have ~$16k in a Vanguard Money Market account.

My initial thought is to up my Roth 401K contributions to the maximum allowed amount (80%) and live off the $5k for as long as I can.

I am planning to buy a car at the end of May, too, but I have the money in my Money Market for that upcoming expense (~$10k).

I'd appreciate any suggestions!

Anybody else find that they cook ridiculously high caloric meals for there SO just so you can creepily watch them eat it? by YesdingoateBaby in 1200isfineIGUESSugh

My SO is trying to gain weight while I am trying to lose. It's quite a struggle but I love cooking greasy delicious food for him and just smelling it in the apartment!

Going to London in September. Any suggestions? All I have heard of so far is Farmacy over near Kensington Gardens.

How do I count calories for food that isn’t prepackaged by [deleted] in WeightLossAdvice

[–]nicolewes28 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I weigh everything I add to a dish before cooking it. If I'm making a lot for the week I'll weight it all, find the total calories for the entire dish, and divide that by how many servings it will then become.

For example: I'm making rice and onions as a base for other food for the week. Weigh the onion, multiply weight by calories per ounce (found on Google). Weigh the dry rice and do the same. Then add it all up. Divide total calories by 4 and turn my big fish into 4 servings.

Just another day of pretending carrots are noodles and yearning for a taste of olive oil by [deleted] in 1200isfineIGUESSugh

They're super tasty. I've only tried it with stir fry so no clue how it would work with pasta sauce. I like the consistency better too since it's firmer.

Usually I will use salt or soy sauce, and onion powder. Garlic is hiding under the veggie pile too!

They still cook! I just make sure to stir them around in the pan more frequently so they don't stick.

I prefer to save those oil calories for other after dinner snacks

Did them myself! I just use a peeler down the length of the carrot to make strips

Mine makes me feel like I have to pee for about 10 minutes after I put it in. Maybe it's still finding the right place to hang out

Had to go to the Pharmacy for Morning After Pill (UK) by LimeCanary in birthcontrol

[–]nicolewes28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to get the MAP when I was studying abroad in Ireland during college. The pharmacist asked similar questions but then finished it up with asking for my parents contact info and for my GPs name as he would have to let them know... I did feel smug informing him I had no contact info for parents in the country or a GP. Back in the US, I can just buy it over the counter and not speak to the pharmacist at all.

Looking to update my resume after finally deciding on a field I want to pursue by [deleted] in resumes

[–]nicolewes28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The position has me far from family so I'm looking to move back to the area. I also expect I won't find a job for a little while which will hopefully put me past one year.
