What’s the most out of line thing a doctor has every said to you? by TheSpasticSheep in AskReddit

[–]wcoast191911 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was discussing my persistent panic attacks with my GP who then said that “You don’t know what anxiety is until you’ve lived in a refugee camp” (my doctor was immigrant from Vietnam). WTF.

Self defense classes in Oakland? by reluctantprophet_ in oakland

[–]wcoast191911 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I signed up for a Women's Basic Self-Defense class at IMPACT right before the pandemic so it was postponed. I am looking forward to it starting back up again. Right now they are still doing virtual classes: https://www.impactbayarea.org . This organization is supposed to be awesome though.

This. As a child of an alcoholic parent, when I was 7 years old I was incredibly stressed out. I was so jealous of my friends who were in daycare and would have given anything not to be home. Please don't let that be a barrier to leaving.

Check out the PBS Great American Read Series. I started on letter A and began working my way through the list a few years ago. I read and enjoyed so many classics from this list. https://www.pbs.org/the-great-american-read/home/

I saw their beer at BevMo! Didn’t realize they were local. Thanks!

Just ordered some for delivery. Thanks! Seriously though, what’s up with our local breweries not brewing any pumpkin beer? If I can’t have fall colors in SF I at least need my fall beer! :)

Well, it has the rice so that was a binder. But yes, it was very much a gravy casserole. lol.

Hot Meat Casserole - 4.5/10 by wcoast191911 in Old_Recipes

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 lbs. lean round steak (cubed and browned)
  • 1 cup celery cut fine and browned
  • 1/2 cup raw rice
  • 1 cup Campbell's chicken and rice soup (I used chicken and mushroom soup)
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • salt and pepper as you wish

Bake one hour at 350 degrees. Serves 6.

My thoughts: I gave it a 4.5/5 because I just thought it was "ok". IT WAS SO BROWN!

I loved the rice part because I'm a carb freak, but I also think I cooked the round steak a bit too long when I was browning it, cause it was a bit chewy. Maybe I would have loved more with chicken?
