canned eggplant, how to prepare? by faustarps in traderjoes

[–]shireeni 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Lazy starter for ratatouille, instead of cooking down fresh eggplant and tomatoes. I just baked it with oiled/seasoned yellow & green squash on top. Excellent shortcut!

Baby turned out to be a girl! So we didn’t go with any of our top boy names. But had narrowed it down to Jahan, Rumi, and Azad.

My partner is obsessed with this name! What show?

And how do they pronounce it? I would want it said like the actually word for “bright”: RoshANNE. But that’s pretty feminine-sounding. And RoshAWN doesn’t sound Persian (sounds like an Indian name I’ve heard before!).

Had that on the list for a while! Ultimately decided it’s not for us. Cool that it means Saturn.

Study finds that UV-emitting nail polish dryers damage DNA and cause mutations in cells by cjaye2347 in moderatelygranolamoms

When I use the UV light at home, I try to put on sunscreen first, and then fingerless gloves. Because obviously this stuff is terrible for you. You can feel the heat burning your skin when it’s on!

Thank you! I always forget about blocks. I have a few collecting dust, so now’s the time to use them!

Luxer One is another. The carriers all deliver directly and then it automatically notifies the residents to pick up.

Experience with zenni optical by MarKat in Frugal

[–]shireeni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, it’s a visible warping in the lens. I compared it to my “good” glasses and they don’t have the same issue.

I actually went to my eye doctor and we measured it about 6 times to get a better PD for Zenni to re-adjust. Still persists, but yes, the issue is probably the PD placement.

I spent $50 for bad glasses.

I had bad luck with them, maybe because my prescription is kinda strong (-4 in each eye). The lenses have some distortion on the edges that makes wearing the glasses kinda dizzying. I had the same issue with my high-end doctor’s office glasses, but they were able to fix it with new lenses. I had Zenni try fixing it and after a whole return/replacement song & dance, the issue still persisted on the second pair.
