re: Some NOLA restaurants going to vaccine mandate for customers.
Posted by hungryone on 8/1/21 at 11:35 am
[quote]How or why this would be compared to a respiratory illness that the vast majority of people recover from is beyond me.[/quote]
I have been wondering for months if people's feelings about vaccination in LA would be radically different if Covid primarily killed children. I've heard too damn m...

[quote]We can simultaneously accept established vaccinations being checked for schooling and reject Shiloh at the front door of a sandwich shop requesting a glorified flu shot printout.

You know, I actually agree with this....but I also know that ridiculously low vaccination rates in LA h...

What a neat find. Would love to see more like that....I need some close-by spots on the water....
re: Tuna fish sandwiches
Posted by hungryone on 7/31/21 at 1:51 pm
I like a fruit and nut tuna salad: Mayo or Greek yogurt plus chopped apple, sliced almonds or chopped pecans, dill relish, a hefty shake of your favorite cajun seasoning. It’s sweet/salty/savory.
Or, use tahini ans lemon juice to make a quick dressing and add olives and sprinkle with za’atar. ...

re: Things you love to eat, but hate to cook
Posted by hungryone on 7/31/21 at 1:43 pm
Onion rings….what a messy pain. And the cook is still frying the damn things in batches while the eaters are enjoying.
Brisket….would so rather pay for quality BBQ than tend the pit myself.

re: MSY Economy Garage vs US Park
Posted by hungryone on 7/24/21 at 7:53 pm
Depending on where you’re headed after you leave the airport, the economy garage at the old terminal can offer a distinct traffic advantage. Headed west and south via 310? Economy garage gets you to Airline then 310 south faster than Vets to Loyola to I-10 west then south to 310. Heading to south...
re: Travel agent
Posted by hungryone on 7/24/21 at 4:47 pm
Agreed, travel agents are unnecessary in modern times. If you’re lazy and won’t do your own research, but most TAs aren’t very well traveled. Most aren’t multilingual, so I’m not getting foreign travel tips from someone who doesn’t even speak the local language(s)....
re: Do you cook meals at home?
Posted by hungryone on 7/21/21 at 7:36 am
[quote]My mantra has always been, I may get tired of cooking, but I never get tired of who I am cooking for.
[/quote]
I love this sentiment, it puts the focus on cooking as an act of love, rather than a nutritional burden or diet policing. An obsession with “correct” eating can be as significan...

re: ideas on building a home "hot spring"
Posted by hungryone on 7/20/21 at 8:58 pm
Google “wood fired hot tub” and you’ll find lots of options. Some in wood, some in plastic….and the small, 2-person versions are under 200 gallons. Some have propane heating options too. Zero need to go as large as 6x6....
re: Blood orange juice in BR
Posted by hungryone on 7/20/21 at 8:40 pm
It’s way out of season for blood oranges….blood oranges ripen in late winter (Jan/Feb). So you might find a frozen blood orange concentrate, but not any fresh juice. The taste isn’t radically different from non blood oranges, so if it’s for a cocktail or drink, you can cheat with a little red frui...
re: At what point does a side-hustle/hobby require an occupational license?
Posted by hungryone on 7/20/21 at 8:37 pm
Home based businesses are not exempt from occ liicenses. In my parish, the base fee is $50/year, and it increases according to business volume.
Also know that home based businesses usually require a separate permit if you live in property that’s zoned residential. If you are filing business inc...

It me.
I go months without touching cash, Yes, I’ll get some cash out of the ATM if a Hurricane is in the Gulf, or if I’m headed to the farmers market to buy from the one crotchety vendor who still deals only in cash. But otherwise, everything from vending machines to gas ...
re: What is your "if I could have a re-do, I would..." re: your personal finances
Posted by hungryone on 7/18/21 at 2:36 pm
Outlier here: I should have borrowed a little money as an undergrad to do a summer or semester abroad. I graduated with zero debt, but I would have benefited greatly from international experience at that time in my life. And I should have traveled more as a very young adult, when I had friends an...
re: Flight Delay / Cancellation - Remedies?
Posted by hungryone on 7/18/21 at 2:31 pm
This scenario is exactly why I don’t check bags. Delays happen, and having clothes/toiletries/meds/basics in hand mean I can more easily roll with whatever comes my way. Hope they can make the best of it as an unplanned adventure....
