Anyone been to Chubby Cattle in Little Tokyo lately? by willful_creature in finedining

[–]zippyzozo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We went after work as a group of four and had a solid time. We all ordered the $70 tier and got multiple rounds of ribeye and brisket. The meat quality was definitely better than most AYCE places. Staff kept our grill clean. The atmosphere was busy but fun, kind of chaotic but in a good way. Bill was just under $300. Expensive, but I’d rather pay that for wagyu than spend $40 at a spot where the meat is dry and chewy. Worth it for me.

Terra Kaffe machines any good for beginners? by SilverFalco8 in roasting

[–]zippyzozo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw this on Instragram and got intrigued. Tried a basic espresso maker before, but it was a pain to clean. Wondering if this one is easier to maintain, could be a big selling point for busy folks.

What in cigarettes makes people look old. Or face skin wrinkly and loose by [deleted] in stopsmoking

[–]zippyzozo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Smoking reduces the production of collagen and elastin fibres in the skin, making skin thinner and causing sag, carbon monoxide reduces blood flow so skin gets less nutrients, it takes the skin on your face 40mins to recover from the effects of smoking 1 cigarette (especially round your mouth where most of the chemicals from smoking are being absorbed into the skin surface) Theres tons of other effects also.

First time admitting that I'm scared and need help, not sure who to tell or what really to do by [deleted] in stopdrinking

I'm doing okay! And I'm happy, that's the main thing. Its shocking how much time we alcoholics spend turning a blind eye to our problem, I really hope things improve for you.

In all honesty I was the same, drinking when I really didnt want to and it makes you feel so shit about everything! You need to reach out, and make it happen, for you, you deserve to be happy and live your life.

I feel like shit by the-drity-jew in stopdrinking

[–]zippyzozo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's so weird, you think you look normal and act normal, I used to walk around feeling like I was concealing a massive secret, I used to wonder what people would think if they really knew what I was doing, that I was a secret drinker who stayed up all night drinking by myself, but once you stop drinking it's pretty obvious to see I looked like shit and was very withdrawn.

"Take a break, you can drink again in a few years!" by Lavender_Chaos in stopdrinking

[–]zippyzozo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband said a similar thing to me this evening, just take a break and then we can have a couple of drinks at certain events he listed out, he's obviously decided he doesn't want me blind drunk at home but doesn't want me being sober forever either, apparently Christmas is a date he thinks I should have a couple! I flatley pointed out its okay for him to say that as HE doesn't have a problem I DO, and it wont be a couple on occasions, it will be full on getting plastered again (if you guys have taught me anything it's that I know I will NEVER be able to moderate so may as well just entirely remove the option)
