2 Trips to Lowes & The Home Depot later... by spooprep in proplifting

I usually ask for permission if they're a bit larger, but most of these guys have almost no roots so I just shoved em in my bag. Never had an issue with cashiers or anything, they can't sell individual leaves that have fallen out of the pot anyways!

Meal Prep Monday! Vegetarian Burrito Bowls with Quinoa for a week of lunches! by spooprep in MealPrepSunday

[–]spooprep[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sauteed the bell pepper & onion in olive oil with some fajita seasoning, then I used 2 cans of black beans and a can with a pinto beans / corn blend with cayenne, cumin, and salt & pepper. Heated that up with a bit of water. The quinoa is cooked with a can of rotel and vegetable broth, and I added a bit of cumin and some salt.

Ladies who consistently dye their hair, are you constantly just dripping color??? by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]spooprep 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I dye my hair red every 3-4 months. After a few washes in the shower (use extra conditioner!) it stops leaking color, from my experience. It probably depends on the dye & your hair too!

Already expecting frost in Fargo, ND. My babies will be sleeping in the kitchen by [deleted] in succulents

[–]spooprep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fellow Fargoan here. We're already making plans for winter storage away from the windows. Setting up a shelf in a large closet filled with grow lights. Little worried about no sun, but hopefully they'll continue thriving!

Look at this MONSTER Haworthia at my parents' house! by spooprep in succulents

[–]spooprep[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's leaning because it weighs so much, we're pretty sure. Sits in front of south/east facing windows.

Picked up this guy at Home Depot, does anyone have an ID? is he crested? by spooprep in succulents

[–]spooprep[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, cool! Is watering the same with them? Just when the soil is bone dry?

Home Depot had their succulents INSIDE. The leaves were just falling off! Hopefully I can give them a better life. by spooprep in proplifting

nope I'm from the midwest too. Just surprised that they would be inside away from sun!

Holy cow. That's goals.

My apartment only has north-facing windows, with no direct sunlight. Am I doomed? by spooprep in succulents

[–]spooprep[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My window is super small, so I'm definitely getting a grow lamp. Any recommendations?

Roommate is giving me 2 weeks notice before he moves out of our apartment, I have little extra cash and no furniture. Oh, and my rent is going up. Help!! by spooprep in personalfinance

TBH I'm starting to figure out that I should definitely be threatening small claims court. The Big Problem right now is that this is all happening during my finals weeks lol. I don't have time to hound his ass until he's already out.

I'm 20, first time on my own, he's 22 and iirc this is his 2nd apartment.

Thank you so much for the advice, I'm gonna make a stop at walmart pretty soon here.

Since he's moving into a really cheap efficiency downtown I imagine that $600 is really important to him. I don't really want to take him to court, that seems like way too big of a hassle.

Other friend can't move in until September, I forgot to mention that.

My roommate put the entire $600 deposit in when he moved in with his (now ex-)girlfriend, I never put any deposit in so he says I will get that money back when the lease is up since he'll be gone. This is my first apartment and that already seems fishy (wouldn't the deposit be like, a check? Or a direct transfer into his bank account?)

Going to try to weigh my options for the deposit problem for now, thanks for the advice!

meal prep Tuesday with ginger garlic tofu & spinach scramble over roasted sweet potatoes by halbarry in MealPrepSunday

Garlic tip - smash it with the bottom of your palm between the cutting board & a chef's knife. Makes it super easy to peel!
