And FWIW I think bringing safe foods is good! Obviously better for kids, and if family has an issue remind them hangry kids are incongruent with joyful holidays.

Not gonna lie, I’m in my 50’s and have grown to love (non-squishy/squeaky) food but holidays are stressful and I’d be happy with a box of granola bars and my weighted blanket all day tomorrow. Solidarity with Linus.

Thank you for sharing these! While not vegan, my family is trying to move in that direction and I’m always looking for new resources. We’ve loved all the Vegan Richa recipes that I’ve made so far!

They are so polite and sweet and normal! I have a Husky who will destroy the kitchen over… frozen veggies.

I’m curious if she’s a pure scheming grifter or a disillusioned true believer in QAnon/conspiracy shit. The latter would be more interesting, but neither is setting up a redemption arc.

I know this is obvious, but I truly don’t get the primarily American male Evangelical “accept Jesus then keep on sinning, you’ve been saved so it’s all cool” mentality. It’s so insidious in US culture and responsible for so much harm.

It's really difficult to get a handle on the prevalence of AAN because...well for people in larger bodies, doctors praise any weight loss to the skies.

No matter how it's achieved.

No matter how much it might harm their health otherwise.

Every possible thing I can think of to say right now *is* really unprofessional.

This is just absurd. I don’t understand how those things are getting sold, or insured once they are sold. Certainly no idea why anyone wants them.

My oldest has been carrying my old digital camera around everywhere she goes for months now. She also got a hybrid digital/kind of like Polaroid one. We are going full circle. They will have us at one hour photo drive-ups soon.

That would make more sense. Either way, it is frustrating how frequently the media gets medical terminology wrong.

I get hemiplegic migraines and classic migraines. Sometimes the hemiplegic ones are just a little weakness on one side, facial droop, loss of coordination, and brain fog. The brain fog can last several days even if the other symptoms resolve fairly quickly.

That sounds so cool! I’ve been canning and freezing the past few years, and am thinking about other things to try.

Do you use your freeze dryer a lot for preserving food too?
