My doctor prescribed taro-mometasone (I think that’s how it’s spelled?) and it worked like magic. None of the other stuff worked. I tried Head & Shoulders, then Nizoral and Neutrogena T-Gel, and I don’t remember what else. It was so bad that it was clumping and scabbing and my hair was falling out. I struggled for a year and then my doctor gave me that thing and the problem just vanished. It came back once a year later and then never again. It’s been several years.
I worked at a pizza place in high school and we actually still had those carbon copy credit card things for when the machine wasn’t working. I’m too young to have seen them otherwise.
I used them when I had covid and lost my sense of taste. When you can’t taste, all food is just a gross mush in your mouth.
It actually is a super power sometimes! My kids can play with all the noisy toys they want – I don’t hear it! Someone gave my kid a mini electric keyboard (like a piano) and she played that thing so much that she’s actually good now and I totally tuned out the whole “bashing the keys” phase.
As a Canadian, I really enjoy listening to Americans pronounce French words.
Editing to say, my French isn’t great but I don’t think you really say the N in gratin (or maybe that depends on regional accents, I’m not sure). I would say it more like “grah-ten” but without really saying the N. You kind of just hint at its existence. Maybe? We need an actual Francophone here…
Oh wow I never noticed the frying pan underneath.
I reeeeeally recommend drying off after. Anyone who is prone to UTIs like I am, please dry off each time…
I have been using convection ovens for way longer than I have had an air fryer and it’s honestly different. The smaller size and the basket shape makes it cook faster and it’s just so muxh easier to toss the stuff in the basket than it is to flip everything over halfway through baking. Deep frying does taste better but I hate cleaning it up after. I thought air fryers were stupid for years but then I tried one and I was wrong.
This has never made sense to me. I love the smell of food. When people apologise for the smell of garlic on their clothes, all I can think is “Why?? You smell delicious.”
To go pick it up myself, I have to: get warm clothes on my children, load them into their car seats, brush snow off the car, drive all the way there, get my children out of the car and into the restaurant, carry the food and corral my children back to the car, get them back into their car seats, drive all the way back, remove all the children from their seats, and then get their winter clothes off and put away. I’ll pay $15 to not do that.
In Canada we have a lot of that and I always assumed we import things from America and then just change the labels. The metric usually converts to a more reasonable number in imperial.
Oh I know they’re viscious! I’ve just been lucky and always kept enough distance between myself and them.
I do honestly love hearing the honking and watching them fly by. I always point it out to my kids. I’ve seen lots of Canada geese in my life and they’ve never hissed at me, so I don’t have a problem with them other than the poops that are just everywhere.
I make my own hot dog buns and then put the cheapest, crappiest chicken hot dogs on them. I like the crappy chicken weenies.
When I was 18, I took my little brother trick or treating. I’m short (and a woman), he’s tall. Everyone asked him if he was too old to be out, but nobody questioned me.
I genuinely love Ancient Aliens but it’s definitely a comedy for me. I really don’t understand how anyone can take it seriously. My husband had someone in one of his college classes who believed an Animal Planet mockumentary about mermaids was real, though, so I guess people have fallen for dumber things.
Woah woah woah. Hold on a second. There are actually people who take Ancient Aliens seriously?! I thought we all watched it because it was hilariously stupid.
Etsy has gotten worse since I got engaged, but that’s where my ring is from. We went for sterling silver and it was $150.
It is pretty weird to eat raw bread
Fresh bread is one of my favourite things in life! My dad used to get a fresh french baguette when we went grocery shopping and he and I would just eat the whole thing in the car on our way home. Lately I’ve been eating warmed (but not toasted) crusty buns with hummus. I only toast bread when it’s starting to get stale.
So many movies and tv shows lately feel like they were written by ai.
