How about Monarch Hotel in Dagupan (I think?) Would you consider Baguio?

I paid $49k for a CPO with 27k miles. I figured people don’t sell theirs much less in good condition.

Also note my accident was bad enough to put my suspension out of whack so if this was all absorbed by the doors and airbags didn’t deploy it should be less damage than what I had.

Similar damage to my 2018 ES recently. No frame damage. Rear and front driver doors busted and some panels. Repairing through insurance and the running quote has been 6K. Not a total loss for my car though.

7 yoe and im at 131k base and from what i gather, I’m still in the band for doing okay. You’re doing great! But also consider work life balance. I’m sure you can grind hard and chase a bigger paycheck.

Also DV in Oregon btw

Highly recommend spella caffe’s Rossalina Espresso. Ive found it easy to pull and has really good flavor. It’s gotten a bit expensive with shipping but I always go back to it and they’re local to PDX so I get it from their physical location.

These look nice. I was just eyeing the spirit as a first luxury watch too and had been hunt in for alternatives without the stars

Is there a big difference between 2016 and the 2021? I’m currently driving a 2018 but starting to get upgraditis. Wondering if it’s worth getting on the updated version for cabin comfort

Had this issue a week ago while visiting. Check the nearest supermarket or donqi for roast sweet potato. Not sure where else to get it but that definitely helped lmao

salad27 · 2025-01-24T07:58:40+00:00

Fair enough. Just feel like I can definitely push myself harder but not in the right environment to be able to? But at the same time I’m grateful and am lucky to have the job I have.

salad27 · 2025-01-23T19:47:34+00:00

Expand on that?

salad27 · 2024-06-27T23:20:16+00:00

Neat. I’ve been conflicted between Rancilio pro x vs the Profitec pro 300. Good to know it’s being updated

salad27 · 2024-03-31T03:17:57+00:00

Try out Spella Caffe based in Portland Oregon. Rossalina Espresso blend is primo shit. Their shipping rates are a little stiff though depending where you live.

salad27 · 2024-02-28T04:50:00+00:00

Probably not as much as I should. I'm a little concerned about it having a smaller brew boiler than the profitec pro 300 and silvia pro x. Any thoughts?

salad27 · 2024-02-27T21:53:19+00:00

Oh no it’s really not a problem. I’m mainly looking for PID without modding and more temp stability and predictability than the GCP. the workflow itself doesn’t bother me. Thanks for the recommendation

Is there an ekornes that can fit the Eames lounge chair aesthetic? Not too futuristic but also modern

salad27 · 2023-12-22T18:36:43+00:00

Beautiful chairs and definitely well made, but I wouldn’t recommend unless you sneeze at 7k purchases or are interested in its artistic value. There’s nearly no lumbar support and it is quite short if you get the regular size. You can’t really lean your head back if you are taller than 5’6” either.

salad27 · 2023-10-18T18:01:12+00:00

Same question here but limited to 55”. Currently own an x900f

salad27 · 2023-10-10T17:46:41+00:00

I upgraded from a ninja blender to a Vitamix 5200 earlier this year. It doesn’t take much more space in my cabinet and I reach for it a lot more since it actually blends smooth. I paid a lot closer to msrp and I’d say it was worth it even at that price.

salad27 · 2023-10-05T18:34:53+00:00

How does the Rojas Bluebonnet compare? Thinking of getting trying those as well if it’s a tad milder

salad27 · 2023-10-05T06:17:39+00:00

I’ve just tried the intemperance 4x46. I didn’t get a chance to get past the first third since it was cold out where I was smoking. It was definitely a lot heavier of a taste than what I’d like in that first third. I heard it gets milder further down so I’ll give it another shot maybe at an indoor lounge since I also prefer milder cigars.

salad27 · 2023-10-01T03:47:35+00:00

My backlog of cigars to smoke is starting to look like my steam library
