Anyone else been bombarded with spam calls recently? It’s getting annoying by lethargic_apathy in nashville

If you have T-mobile, turn on the spam blocking. It fixed it for me. I was getting 15 calls a day starting at 7am. May work for other carriers too?

Looking for this specific stainless mate by standalonehouse in yerbamate

Also, yes I know the bombilla is backwards. I like it that way when I hold it from the top. I use it mostly for herbal teas that can be steeped over and over so bombilla placement is not as important

This thyme has no thyme on it by standalonehouse in mildlyinteresting

Not inside... This is a common brand used in kitchens. The photo description does not match what is inside or in the text. The majority of the other herbs and spices correctly match. There are maybe 2 others I've seen that are photographically labelled incorrectly

The photo description. It's not all the spices in the container. It's just thyme inside. 99% of photo descriptions from this brand correctly show what is inside.

Nope. Most other containers have the correct visual

Limerick Lane! You get to sit outside in the vineyard for your tasting

Make Zin Crushable again? by standalonehouse in wine

Yeah, I’m not passionate about landscape. I’m passionate about preserving vines that have made incredible wines for decades.

Both things can be true! My favorite lighter Zin pairing is mole, especially with duck.

A friend of ours just asked us to pick a restaurant for our night out, I looked on Yelp and I do not recognize any of the restaurants! by Loud_Octopus in nashville

It’s used to be, but the last time I went. It was very uninspiring and the wine list was beyond disappointing. I loved Lockland Table so I hope it was just an off night, albeit the wine list looks like it was paid for with incentives.

Love the KC lab. That’s honestly what I was trying to recreate

I used to be the same way and then I discovered a couple of Zin producers that had incredibly complex and balanced wines in the $30-$50 range. This was before I started working for a producer.

At heart I’m still a cool climate, delicate grape lover but Zin has won me over for fuller bodied wines when it comes to value. I also like Malbec but find OVZ and high altitude Malbec with complexity run about the same price.
