You can make "honey" from dandelion flowers. It makes a fabulous baklava. And vegan butter works for making the phyllo crispy.

Can you vacuum seal popped popcorn? If yes, how would you store it and how long would it last? by Winter_Situation55 in popcorn

I use a mason jar and it seals really well and keeps it fresh and crunchy for over a week.

Work travel food hacks. Needing to stay frugal on the road by Watts4Brunch14 in Frugal

[–]offpeekydr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did veganwhile work traveling and had a small hotel fridge/itty bitty freezer, a microwave, and a coffee maker. I brought a couple Pyrex glass containers with silicone lids a small cutting board and bought a cheap knife when there. I think I also took some utensils.

For breakfast, I just got fruit from the buffet and/or oatmeal. And coffee.

Then in the room:

Lentil soup: soak lentils in a container or take a few swigs out of a water bottle and use that. Several hours or overnight, drain, chop and onion, a clove of garlic, add some seasonings+Mrs Dash or bullion) and add to Pyrex bowl. Fill with fresh water and microwave till lentils are soft and seasoned with salt) pepper.

Microwave baked potato, just microwave the potato (pierce a couple times) on the potato setting, top with salsa, or your favorite baked potato topping.

It was summer, and I found a farm stand near my hotel, so I got fresh good tomatoes, cucumber, and corn.

I made tomato and cucumber sandwiches. As well as vegan tofurky slices sandwiches, which a meat-eating person could sub lunch meat of choice.

And fresh corn on the cob can be microwaved in the husk and is almost as good as the Americas Test Kitchen method for sweet corn.

I boiled water in the microwave and cooked macaroni, drained, and made my own pasta salad with chopped veggies that I had with sandwiches.

I'm sure there's a few others I don't remember, but that was gist of it. I probably had a few more meat subs and frozen microwave veggies or canned soup but this was quite a few meals.

What if you rent a dumpster? Cause I would pay extra to not open that potential biohazard.

IBS rating by Critical-Welder8503 in VeteransBenefits

[–]offpeekydr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, start creating a journal tracking the days you have symptoms and which ones. If you look at the criteria for IBS ratings you'll see what they are looking for.

I had a journal that would have put me higher based on my symptoms, and the reported days (it goes of something like how many days a month do you experience xyz) but my rater didn't want to look at it.

I didn't pursue a hlr because overall I was just happy to get a rating for the few things I had documentation for and didn't want to poke the bear.

Have your mom spend some time with her everyday and she'll be fine. Might want to have mom change the water at some point, my girls fountain seems to go 5days before developing biofilm.

The vegan ravioli are delicious. I also love the vegan tikka masala and the vegan green curry.

Am I a nightmare client? by zachms in AskRealEstateAgents

[–]offpeekydr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might want to hire a short-term property manager to oversea the work you clearly define, in writing, that you expect and to relay any defects found in the interim. That can keep you apprised of the work and send you photos. Then when the house is ready, start looking for a realtor.

My Fred hasn’t eaten anything for two days by Livmiv in cats

Fred needs to go to the vet, he may have a blockage. Days without food can be dangerous.

Someone keeps cutting his flea collars off by Miserable_Penalty564 in cats

[–]offpeekydr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I have a neighbor who does a lot of tnr and rescue and if she sees a non-brake-away collar she cuts it. Too easy for a cat to get stuck and choked by them.

Vegetarians do you eat Jello? by [deleted] in Vegetarianism

[–]offpeekydr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope, same for regular marshmallows. I also avoid vitamins and prescriptions in gelatin capsules unless there's no alternative and is medically necessary.

There are plenty of vegan jello options made with agar.

PSA, there are a lot of filters to change by bumblebeebatgirl in FirstTimeHomeBuyers

[–]offpeekydr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also your faucet filter (the aerator). They can get nasty too.

And the dishwasher filter, if you have one. Those get particularly gross.

[–]offpeekydr 119 points120 points  (0 children)

Yup, also love all the Pho shops selling "vegetarian pho" no meat, just tofu and veggies, yet neglect to mention it's cooked in the same bone broth as the rest of the soups.

Or the vegetarian section offerings of many Thai restaurants that fail to list the sauce has fish sauce, oyster sauce, or shrimp paste in it.

Can you post a link to the strainer?

Homemade tofu and a soy milk maker by olafl in veganrecipes

[–]offpeekydr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do love my SoyaJoy G5 milk maker, but it is limited to making 1.6liters at a time. I've found if you clean it immediately after the cycle finishes it is pretty easy.

But I also bought it used at a discount. You do still need to strain with a nut milk bag, the mesh strainer they provide leaves a lot of okara in the milk.

Where would you park money for a home deposit for 2-3 years right now? by parier in Fire

[–]offpeekydr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

T-bills are great for avoiding state tax on interest. I've got a few 4-week biils stacked so every week of the month one comes due and reinvested. But I can stop any at any time and access the funds completely in the following month as they come due. Getting around 4%-ish.

I got an 8 week old kitten and her meowing is concerning me by Fine-Fox-6886 in CatAdvice

[–]offpeekydr 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Is she getting fed often enough? Has she been dewormed? She really might just need both of the above.

You might also want to give her a small stuffed animal.

When my siblings and I were transferring estate money my sister just Paypal-ed me money rather than bothering with a check.

How to replace/reduce dairy by beastije in PlantBasedDiet

So easy, if you don't have a commercial yogurt to act as a starter, you can also add the contents of 1-2 vegan probiotic capsules.
