  1. @marbel just google Wrangler jackets or Levi’s jackets and lots of denim on denim photos would appear including same color denims 🙂 e.g. https://www.wrangler.com/shop/womens-wrangler-retro-sherpa-lined-western-denim-jacket-LWJ320.html https://www.wrangler.com/shop/womens-girlfriend-denim-jacket-in-nashville-112343568.html?merchCategory=WRG_WOMEN_OUTERWEAR https://www.wrangler.com/shop/womens-wrangler-memory-maker-jacket-in-carbon-112324957.html https://www.levi.com/US/en_US/clothing/women/outerwear/original-trucker-jacket/p/299450070 https://www.levi.com/US/en_US/clothing/women/outerwear/sherpa/original-sherpa-trucker-jacket/p/361360000
  2. Not here. Denim jacket with jeans is very common even in winter (ours is mild). We see all kinds of color for denim jackets; red, peach, yellow, white, faded blue, indigo. For jeans we see faded blue, indigo, white, black, faded black. The youngsters here rock the look with a cropped exercise top, cropped jacket, ripped jeans. @crazyforlatin I think denim on denim was already mainstream in the 80s. I still have my clothes from high school (80s) and college (90s) days. My husband does too. Lots of denim shirts at Levi’s outlet.
  3. This thread has quite a few TMI replies but seems relevant https://www.quora.com/A-friend-of-mine-claims-that-a-half-hour-after-eating-lettuce-she-gets-diarrhea-and-it-has-chunks-of-lettuce-Ive-read-that-the-quickest-a-food-can-get-through-the-digestive-tract-is-6-8-hours-Is-her-claim-possible-And-if-so-how-does-it-work-through-her-system-so-fast
  4. I call them soft toys. Had to google stuffies. I guess my answer is a yes and no. The giraffe soft toy in my avatar is sometimes on the headrest portion of my bed. I roll around when sleeping so any soft toy would have landed on the floor by morning. Blåhaj the shark is permanent resident on my younger son’s bed.
  5. It might be the level/amount of sulphites present. I have seen staff cut open large packs of frozen vegetables and pour directly into the woks or bins. https://www.ifsqn.com/forum/index.php/topic/19952-allergen-management-sodium-metabisulphite-used-to-wash-products/?ampmode=1 “in the previous audit a non conformance was raised stating that sodium metabisulphite was not taken in to account as a allergen. i am un sure how to rectify this as we use it im potatoes, cabbages and a salad washer machine for the lettuce packs.” “In Australia, our national legislation around allergens requires mandatory declarations if the product contains added sulphites in concentrations of 10mg/kg or more. You would also need to check any customer requirements for limits as well if they have been documented as part of contracts or audit criteria's.”
  6. Someone on Reddit mentioned sodium metabisulphite is used for shredded lettuces and other vegetables to prevent browning.
  7. That’s how I dress when the weather is warm enough that I don’t need a parka. I wear a T-shirt though. I do blue on blue and black on blue. Kind of like how Bon Jovi dress for performances when he does denim on denim. My denim jackets are actually men’s small (or XS) size ones from Helmut Lang, Rag & Bone, Zadig & Voltaire.
  8. If we know it is going to be a loud sneeze, we would say excuse me if we could before “running” to another room (if at home) or outside (if in a cafe) to sneeze. If I have a violent sneeze coming and I hold it in, my face is going to look very bad. DS18 had a relatively loud sneeze today at community college while doing his homework in the study area. We heard a few amused “bless you” from neighboring cubicles.
  9. If I want to make bone broth or equivalent later, I would pull the meat off first before plating. Else the person eating can diy. Oxtail soup is high in collagen which is useful not just for beauty.
  10. Especially useful for anemia due to time of the month. That and pork liver.
  11. @KungFuPanda chloropheniramine is the only thing that greatly reduces my nose running like a tap syndrome since I was a kid. I buy the Flonase tablets because of that. DS18 does that too. When it gets really bad, he use the charming toilet paper roll when at home.
  12. @Rosie_0801 the most convenient way is to use a slow cooker or pressure cooker and cook it like a stew. Chinese oxtail soup is meant for nutrition, not meant to taste good. I’ll go for the pork blood soup if there is a supply chain issue as people rarely buy pork blood at supermarkets so supply and prices are usually good.
  13. Not free where my DS19 is at. He has to install an app for the washer and dryer. The advantage of the app is that it tells him when the washer and dryer are done. He rarely runs a load just like when I was in college. His campus is cash free so we got him a secured credit card when he turned 18 to use on campus. We also got him a new cellphone since his cellphone was more than 3 years old and has no more Andriod OS updates The most important skill for my boys is to learn to advocate for themselves, whether it is health or academic. They learn to advocate for themselves academically while doing dual enrollment classes. They went through the degree audit to get their associate degrees. Health wise, my kid add me as "authorized user" on their healthcare accounts so that I can help them look if they need me to. Financially, we don't qualify for any aid so the student bills are hyper easy to comprehend. @pehp I get my quarters from the coin changing machines next to those coin operated rides. If I need more quarters, I could change at the bank.
  14. Our accents vary depending on whether we are speaking formally, casually or jokingly. My husband’s accent varies the least but he tends to speak more formally at all times. My kids chinese accent is americanized when speaking casually but less when being formal. Their german accent has less variation since they rarely speak german in casual environment. Their japanese accent has even less variation.
