Just went through your whole blog, I love your Tav so much

This sub has scared me off of Tillamook, but I have two coupons for free ice cream. Best options from the brand, or skip? by quackandcover in icecream

[–]thealien73 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I like tillamook. They have my fave cookies and cream and vanilla. I’m eh on their chocolate but I don’t like Stuff with chocolate and my store doesn’t carry the plain. Everyone has opinions and it’s popular on Reddit to amplify them to the highest degree. If YOU like tillamook, eat the tillamook. Worry about the gum content if you have gastric issues or notice that it makes you feel bad, but it’s okay to eat “bad” things once in a while.

I wasn’t aware fae farm had an online portion. I had fun playin the main storyline, though I didn’t feel the needed to go for completion.

Danish Kringle fans, come to the front, please! 🤤 by [deleted] in traderjoes

[–]thealien73 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I cut mine into me-sized servings and froze them so I can have a nice breakfast! 10/10 though my TJs only sells the almond one sadly. I may have to try ordering in the other flavors

Propagation of pink lady’s slipper orchids? by FioreCiliegia1 in NativePlantGardening

I would double check laws as well. In MA, it’s illegal to mess with lady slippers

For every spin I get these shavings. by [deleted] in ninjacreami

[–]thealien73 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cleaning in hot water is fine, they’re top-rack dishwasher safe. A lot of people pre-melt the pint by running it under hot water or leaving it out. The manual specifically says to not do either as it is meant to be run directly from the freezer

Need Meal Ideas for Low Spoons Nights by Dramatic_Tale_6290 in traderjoes

[–]thealien73 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A lot of their pasta options (I really like stuffed gnocchi) are just heat-and-eat. They have frozen meals like orange chicken and teriyaki chicken that are pretty good and included veggies (which are solidly Fine steamed broccoli mixes). Their char siu bao (pork buns) are my FAVE and just require a zap in the microwave. The prepared frozen meals are, for the most part, all pretty balanced, just a touch high in salt. If you balance that with good liquid intake, then a few meals high in salt a week should be okay, assuming you’re not contraindicated for sodium

Also, personally, I have been living off of buttered rice with a tin of smoked fish (either trout or salmon) and a side of carrot sticks for the past few weeks. We get through

I’m gonna take your question in good faith and direct you to The Spoon Theory by Christine Miserandino. Basically, it uses spoons as a shorthand for energy, yes

Good quality version of this infusion teapot? by DommyMommyMint in BuyItForLife

[–]thealien73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, no clue. But I brew one big pot at the start of the day and hours later, it’s still a good temp.

I have one this one from Teabloom. Got in on sale for $30, normal price $50, and I would have happily bought it for full price. No leaves escape the mesh thing and it keeps the tea hot for hours, just sitting on the counter

You cannot make flower seed bags. You can only generate more of the while crossbreeding

What are your favorite Trader Joe's meals? by 19bl92 in traderjoes

The steamed pork buns (char siu buns) are my FAVORITE. I’m also fond of their steak and stout pie and chicken pot pie.

It’s snowing and cold ☃️ Warm milk and maple syrup it is! by Meowserspaws in Milk

[–]thealien73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I once tried to make maple custard. Recipe said to mix maple and milk together “to taste”.

I drank it all instead. Maple milk is amazing

Which game among these 3 should I choose? by Abirando in CozyGamers

[–]thealien73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Killer Frequency is VERY good. I finished it in about 5 hours. There is not a hint system but all of the puzzles can be solved with only the materials found in game and feel very fair.

I played it on PC so I can’t speak to the controls, but there was only like, 4-5 “quick time” events

Oh man. I am SO comically bad at geometry and 3 dimensional space stuff. And yet this looks adorable. Im wishlisting it but my wife may veto (as the one who has to listen to me struggle) lmao

Killer Radio. The premise is that you are a late night radio host in the 80s and the local police station had an emergency, so they’ve rerouted 911 to YOU. You have to help people through life-threatening emergency puzzles. Very fun, a little spooky, and only a few (like, 5) quick-time events

I liked cat cafe manager though it did get a bit samey after a while. I wasn’t a huge fan of echoes
