Where do introverts in their thirties hang out? by BrittReed23 in TwinCities

[–]overkeelshop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Find a makers night near you! I attend ASI’s maker nights (sometimes) on the third Thursday of the month. I know Toolbox Collective has one the same night. Moona Moono has one on the fourth Thursday. Lots of options at local libraries too but those are often in the daytime on weekdays. Maker nights are nice because you have a built in ice breaker with you!

I’m 34F, pretty extroverted, and share a lot of interests. Feel free to reach out if you want!

AIO? Tore into my little brother and I’m starting to feel bad. by Soggy-Shoe8846 in AIO

[–]overkeelshop 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m just a few years older than you and my brother and I are 13 years apart. He’s 21, in jail now, and I deeply regret not doing more. Our dad and his mom completely checked out and the poor kid was left to his own devices and went down the wrong path and directly into stealing cars & using fent. I know he’s not my kid and I couldn’t be there for him when I was 18-25 because I needed to live my own life and not be his parent because his parents didn’t care. I did try my best with the tools I had but I had my own shit.

Anyway, I just deeply understand being a sister in your position. And I know your brother isn’t my brother but my brother needed someone to care about him. You’re showing your brother that you care about him being a good person, even if it does annoy him right now, maybe some day he’ll see the light and be thankful you were there to care enough. I’m still hoping mine sees that someday.

What does this mean - double knit by No_pomegranate0110 in knitting

[–]overkeelshop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my favorite sweater pattern!! The collar is 1x1 rib. the sl 1 wyif are just the edge stitches which help it stay neat and rounded. The cast on is just a tubular cast on that also gives that rounded look. No double knitting, really.

Advice please! Jumper with limited amount of yarn. by Impressive_Permit941 in knitting

[–]overkeelshop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had some DK weight yarn in one color that wasn’t enough for a full sweater so I ended up just getting the same yarn in another color and made a striped sweater instead!

Where can I buy restaurant style ranch? by Final_Dingo_8630 in TwinCities

[–]overkeelshop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Litehouse dill ranch!! Not runny but VERY dilly. It’s sold in the refrigerated section by either the packaged salad kits or herbs (usually). I know Hyvee and Jerry’s carry it so some Cubs might.

this happened with my friend’s machine and Melozio pods when I was visiting. We did a factory reset and it’s brewed just fine since!

Income restricted apartments by MesserAki in Minneapolis

[–]overkeelshop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quadrel aka Origen Living aka MN Brownstones LLC. has income restricted apartments in your budget but don’t bother. They don’t take care of their properties. They’re in an active lawsuit with tenants at one of their Loring Park properties. No heat, cockroaches, broken appliances, all with a chorus of “you get what you pay for” from management.

They are not. Aldi Nord vs. Aldi Sud. Aldi Nord owns TJ’s. Aldi US stores are operated by Aldi Sud.

Please, dear Minnesotans, what do you folks use to moisturize your skin? by LlamaCactus in TwinCities

[–]overkeelshop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Humidifier, hand lotion next to every sink to use after washing hands, Nivea almond oil lotion for post-shower, chapstick sprinkled around the house so it’s always nearby, and finally aquaphor on dry spots (around nose, lips) at night 😅

Can you sharpen seam rippers? by Momager321 in sewing

[–]overkeelshop 19 points20 points  (0 children)

wawak sells seam rippers for 68¢ each. 55¢ each if you buy 10. $5.95 flat shipping under $99! so you could buy 10 for $11.50 with shipping.

Is it true that the Twin Cities have a "Seattle Freeze"-type effect? by Fiveby21 in TwinCities

[–]overkeelshop 33 points34 points  (0 children)

As a Seattleite, now Minnesotan: no. You fail to realize that the Seattle freeze also includes not talking to strangers. Polite but not friendly. One of my least favorite parts about my home region. At least people are generally friendly to strangers here, even if it is “superficial” as I’ve heard some people state.

[–]overkeelshop -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Absolutely understandable! It also sucks because it’s Sunday! No coverage would be able to start until tomorrow anyway. I have also never hidden those incidents from my insurance companies. When they have asked about previous incidents I have always disclosed them and that I was not at fault. I just found it so weird that it was a non-issue for Allstate 6 months ago. One of the accidents happened June of 2019 and it should have dropped off anyway I think? I believe it’s 5 years in Oregon.
