  • I do similar, but not so heavy on the cilantro. Yellow onions are fine, too, but not Vidalia. I don’t use tomatillo. I mince my garlic. I only use fresh limes. The avocado to lime and garlic ratio is really important. If you get that how you like it, everything else is a snap. I hand mix mine so that it’s more chunky and less homogeneous. It’s the hit of every party. My problem is finding enough ripe avocados to make a quantity that feeds everyone.

    What? You don’t pay taxes? That’s what taxes are for. Stop being an ass. You are trying to make a point–we get it. There are better methods of transportation than cars. That’s in a perfect world where everything else is equal. Not all places are designed the same, have the same people, the same temperatures and weather, etc. We can advocate for better design, but that doesn’t help where we are RIGHT NOW.

    My closest park is 2 miles away with no sidewalks for over half of it, a very busy intersection, etc. I’m not walking or biking there with my two young kids and a heat index over 100. The closest bus stop is a mile away and has no sidewalks on the way. No idea if it even heads to the closest park, but it’s not free, either.


  • I put something on the scale, hit search, type the first 3 letters of the item, select the relevant item, select whether it is in any additional container (like the produce bags), and it’s done. Takes me 3 seconds to do.

    I’ll have to look to see if my grocery store has image recognition. I have not noticed that feature, but I’d be interested in trying it.













  • Yes. We try to teach consent with my young children. When one is doing something to the other and they shout “no!” We point out that they are not consenting to whatever the other is doing.

    Also, we have a phrase to help empower our children to say no when they’re being tickled and no longer want it. We say, “no mas manos” (no more hands). They can also say “no,” “stop,” or any number of other things, but we’ve used this phrase to make a point of it. Sometimes they say no mas manos and then when we stop they say “mas manos” or “yes mas manos.” To them it’s a bit of a game, but to me they’re getting to learn that it’s exactly like a switch. When the switch is on, tickling is welcome. When the switch is off, tickling is no longer welcome and should immediately stop. They can choose for it to be on or off any time, and can switch in rapid succession–they get to decide.
