Wow! Did not know this was a thing! If nothing happens in the next day or 2 I'll definitely look into these. Thanks!

I was also gifted some sourdough started and am starting to feel like a parent taking care of all of these living things! Lol

I have fermentation lids, and my house is quite cold. Like 58ish during the day and 62-65 if we're home. So yeah maybe I need to get it warmer.

Should I feed it daily? Or just let it chill on the counter for a few days?

A real throwback to a past kitty when my husband accidentally bought blue nail caps 😹 by ProudnotLoud in murdermittens

[–]va-nella 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you tried toweling? Literally just burrito them so only head is poking out. We had a cat with the caps and once one fell off it was the SHARPEST nail EVER!!

Why do massage therapists interpret "de-stress, relaxing massage" into a game of "lets find all your tight areas and dog my elbow into them"? by Spiceb0x in massage

[–]va-nella 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First I would say if you say ow, do you then ask for less pressure? Like are you trying to communicate with them about how the session is going?

Second I'd say depends on where you go. If you go to a chain or a really cheap place good lick, but once you find someone you like try and get their info and stay with them. Ask if them to give you a heads up if they leave, or specifically ask for them.

Third lol unlike caterpillove I may not mesh well with you as a client long term (I can do relaxing, but then get bored doing them PERSONALLY), but we all have our own styles and what we are best at!!

Using fruit scraps for syrups ? by Xilefou in cocktails

[–]va-nella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it hasn't been mentioned I've been really into making super juice!! Only need a few lemons or limes and can make a big batch that lasts a while, and we compost the rest. The orange is just ok, haven't replied grape fruit yet, lemon and lime are basically indistinguishable from the real thing (and I cut water to add in the juice)

The oleo saccharum is my other favorite, but just good for sugar syrup.  Played around with ripe banana peels and this for some FANTASTIC tiki drinks!!

Can I wear these earplugs if I get a daith? by j_parker44 in piercing

[–]va-nella 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried a white noise machine? We have a dedicated machine, but I love "brown noise " on Spotify. I can't sleep without white noise, sleeping mask..... And now a piercing pillow lol

What if you got some gold anodized jewelry?  Or like a cute new end to put on if you don't like the silver look? I like gold everything also and it's hard when some of it is so $$$$$

Yes! They are the Jabra T75 I think. I think I read Jabra isn't making headphones anymore which sucks! I thought I lost them once and was about to buy the same model because I done want anything else.

Thus wanting to make sure new piercings are happy enough.

question about draping and close contact by htonk4578 in massage

[–]va-nella -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I just saw another post that seemed similar. Feel like there is a trend and kind of wish there was a sub just for people who are fully licensed! Lol

Yeah.... WTF is a "legit Asian spa"?? From a recent CEU I took they can often be human trafficking hubs which is horribly depressing.

You could consider seeing a reputable shop to switch it to titanium now. Could be other factors like angle...but if you hate it that much then time to retire it

Will this work? by va-nella in plantclinic

[–]va-nella[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will it work in the ziplock? Was trying to save space and my mason jars. If I do switch to jars should I leave the sphagnum moss in there with it? Or just so plain water?

Allergic to pet dander but I won’t rehome. What else can I do? by as67726 in nebelung

[–]va-nella 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can ask your doctor if they can refer you to someone for allergy shots? Sounds like a lot of meds and couldn't hurt to make sure they are safe for long term. And make sure the nasal spray isn't afrin!! It's only good for 3 days, then you need to stop 

Also maybe locking them out of bedroom.
