Also I think mixtape is coming back. Based off an Instagram teaser awhile back.

That is simply silly. Besides the many people like myself that have a still, there are countless others that buy jugs of distilled to drink because that don't trust the source of "spring" water.

Why is this downvoted? Other users that are saying they use the 5 gallon jugs are upvoted.

Tastes like watermelon

Whatever you do, do not get fooled by Acorn's version. I got it there (without reading the fine print on the menu) only to find some ice cream on top of some sort of pastry shell. I was then informed that it was a "deconstructed" interpretation of the dish....

It’s so funny because people are recommending things and are upvoted and then OPs replies are downvoted, about using the same things lol

Sorry if this is a dumb question but is it safe to drink a lot of distilled water? I heard that you can drink “too much” of it, not sure what that means lol

i wish i could remember more. i stopped going out for music around 2001/02. the rave scene kinda dried up around then. after that sometimes i’d head over to nick’s fat city after work when i lived on the south side. saw a lotta interesting stuff but always avoided the clarks crowd. lolol.

Sometimes I see Spaz in Bloomfield. He was a DJ at a few clubs back then.
I loved seeing rock shows at Rosebud. I remember seeing Luna there back in 2001 and I recall it being top notch all around.
I saw Type O Negative at Metropol, and this is off the top of my head, but I would put it around 1995?

I had it at Sardi’s in NYC on NYE in 1995, and it was amazing but I was also drunk and everything that night seemed amazing. I do recall reading in a recent post on this sub that someone had it in DeShantz’s Rib Room and I seem to recall they also enjoyed it there.

And use landmarks as directions that haven't been there for 20+ years.

I’ve gotten into the groove of a non video phone call with my therapist who is aging out of the profession but has kept a handful of clients like me—we have a 20 year professional relationship with an 8 year gap in the middle. It’s personal to every such relationship, but I find the audio only call is more intimate and I’m able to focus better on the issues at hand. When we are on video conferences I feel more self conscious and it distracts me from the issues I need to focus on. I do enjoy the occasional office visit!

Funny story. I’ve done this once. Due to sunroof and screen brightness on high, my iPhone overheated half way through the call and wouldn’t turn on for 15-20 minutes so embarrassing lmfao

It’s not tea but The Grand Concourse Sunday brunch. I went to the Russian Tea Room in the 1980s w my dad and The Grand Concourse has the same feel, the same service. Sit in the main dining room.

You can probably make it at home with little effort. Some premade sticky buns to bake, some ice cream. Boom!
The last time I went to EnP they made me a milkshake with the netting that milk jugs or something came from and blended it right into the shake. So I took like a swig and i got a mouth full for shredded plastic. I haven't been back since. That was at least a decade ago.

This is what I do. I have straight up phone calls with my therapist and just park by where Gus’s sets up in the Commons park and nobody has ever bothered me or stared at me. Another good place is the outer limits of a parking lot of a box store. Of course this presupposes OP has access to a vehicle.
