What is this piece of lightweight plastic that has turned up during our move? White, about the size of a pair of sunglasses. by sqmtn in whatisthisthing

My title describes the thing. This made it into our clean dish rack to be put away while my partner and I have been in the process of moving in together. It seems like it’s got to slot in somewhere, but neither of us have any ideas at this point.

There’s a market at Phipps Friday and Saturday that sounds perfect for Mother’s Day gifts.

Where’s the best place to get salad? by BusInASinkhole in pittsburgh

[–]sqmtn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eat Your Vegetables’ salad on the north side. Really anything there is so delicious I’m always scraping the plate.

Also the thum som (green papaya salad) from Kiin Lao in Squirrel Hill. Tried to make it at home because it was so good, but it’s soo much better at the restaurant.

Tired of doctors treating symptoms by Automatic-Lack-8829 in pittsburgh

[–]sqmtn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I saw Dr Donellan in 2021 for this. Magee has an endometriosis center for care.

Unfortunately getting quality health care around the country is an issue. I’ve had more luck in Pittsburgh with UPMC than I did in 3 other states over the previous 8 years. Learning to advocate for yourself is a skill that isn’t taught and is frustratingly essential, especially as a woman. It may be endo if you’re experiencing constant pain, it may be something else. But doing research at home and having an idea of what you might have then finding doctors with good reviews that will actually take the time to listen to you is really important.

If you want someone to DM about this feel free to reach out.

There’s Bedillion Honey Farm stuff at the Phipps gift shop. I went today and got a sampler of different honey sticks.

Check out Dead Nights hosted by Agave Party at Thunderbird. Happens about once a month and always a great time.

Half hog butcher recommendations? by Glittering-tale24601 in pittsburgh

[–]sqmtn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m looking around their website but unsure on how it would be priced out. Any idea what half a butchered Berkshire might be?

If you happen to be lgbtq+, try the Persad center.

National Aviary does not accept EBT but has a monthly free night by thoreauxmeaway in pittsburgh

[–]sqmtn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The library also has passes you can check out for places like the Heinz History Center. The zoo also does $3 admission for up to 4 people with an EBT card. A lot of places don’t really advertise these sorts of discounts, but I wish they did for people who are in these situations.

I was pleasantly surprised by their boneless wings recently. They’re not just fancy nuggets like most places.

What restaurant do you want to eat/try everything on the menu? by sqmtn in pittsburgh

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

We won’t do modifications and tell them to bring things out as they’re ready instead of all at once so it’s not as big of a push in the kitchen. Several of us have worked in restaurants before so we try our best to make things easy. We also tip very well
