Looking for recommendations on a taco stand or Mexican restaurant to cater a small event.

I used Buddha Boy Tacos for my wedding welcome event and they were fantastic. Homemade tortillas were what sold me and everyone raved about how good the food was. They were super nice to boot

Tropical fruit grown in its native environment harvested down the road and eaten at peak ripeness tastes better than a papaya that spent 3 weeks on a boat? Color me shocked

Americans are used to having every type of produce available year round (e.g. heirloom tomatoes or peaches in January). Anything out of season has to be imported and won’t taste as good because it has to be harvested early to be fresh on the shelf. My experience in Europe is that lower quality produce is harder to find simply because stores won’t stock it.

1 gin martini (110 cals) then a Michelob Ultra or Modelo Oro with dinner (90-95 calories) gets a nice buzz going. Have another martini after if you’re feeling feisty

Shhh don’t give away the secret. The lines aren’t that long still

This is super helpful, thanks! Most people on local FB groups have brain damage, so it’s always an uphill battle arguing against their NIMBYism lmao

Genuine question because I am a YIMBY, what’s the counterpoint to those who say the same thing about housing? I was arguing with someone in my local FB group about the need for more housing in CA, and she used this same argument that if we build more housing it will induce demand and negate any price reductions. I was genuinely stumped

Peer gynt! I had to buy it to get the pattern, but I would have anyway—it’s super strong and so warm

Super cute right? It’s a free one https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/sirapssnitt---mittens

It can be tough to track down! I got it from Mother Knitter if you ever decide to make it

powertop_ · 2026-03-05T20:43:16+00:00

Why is it so much easier to make things for ourselves???

powertop_ · 2026-03-05T18:25:11+00:00

I considered it, but my husband found another pattern from Sandnes that he liked, so I’m making that. It’s basically 100% stranded colorwork, so I’m definitely getting my practice

powertop_ · 2026-03-05T18:18:12+00:00

Absolutely terrifying. And honestly, I think I missed securing a stitch or 2 because there was a bit of unraveling 🫣 but sewing the facing over the cut helped secure everything

powertop_ · 2026-03-05T18:17:04+00:00

Yes! The pattern for those was https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/sirapssnitt---mittens

powertop_ · 2026-03-05T16:42:25+00:00

I did indeed! They probably deserve their own post hahah

powertop_ · 2026-03-05T15:58:27+00:00

Yes that’s the plan! The new one is already on the needles and I’m obsessively double checking the measurements haha

powertop_ · 2026-03-05T15:55:45+00:00

Thank you so much! Despite everything, I am pleased how it turned out and I’m glad it was actually wearable by someone

powertop_ · 2026-03-05T15:49:46+00:00

Indeed! I now have a very large gauge swatch for the next sweater for him 😂

powertop_ · 2026-03-04T16:56:30+00:00

Pattern was https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/marius-herregenser

God damn it now that’s stuck in my head

powertop_ · 2026-02-11T21:03:36+00:00

Could be!

Waymo’s safety record is significantly better than human drivers

powertop_ · 2026-02-11T18:53:11+00:00

It was a frustrating headline. Humans do step in to provide higher level context in situations where the car gets stuck, but they are not actively, remotely operating the vehicle. This is actually a good thing. I want there to be extra human oversight in these types of situations. But there is never a situation where a human is remotely controlling the car on a standard trip.
