I love to mix frozen berries with heavy cream... it allows the cream to firm up like a yogurt covered raisin, etc. For those of you that aren’t into lavishing on a bunch of sugar, however... maybe you’re keto or a diabetic, etc... a good alternative is an extra stevia packet from a place like Starbucks. The trick is…

While there’s no reason to wait... there is a word of caution. Enabling 2FA changes your access token used for 3rd party integration. In my case, I run Homebridge on a Raspberry Pi at home so I can tell Siri to adjust my temperature, etc. To get this working, you have to login to Nest.com, then go a URL for your…

I like this idea. Growing up we always added crispy, diced bacon, finely chopped walnuts, and either pears or apples to ours. But last year we started adding turkey. Basically, we’d cook the bird upside down and covered in foil so the juices drip into the breast meat and it didn’t dry out. Then with one hour…

“For comparison’s sake, this same refurb is selling for $50 on Amazon”. I think you may have meant “$150". Otherwise, $50 on Amazon is a lot better than $120 on Woot.

One more thing I’ll mention... you talk about my smugness and complicated order, as though there’s a group of “entitled” Starbucks patrons out there that are basically scum. But I can’t count the number of times I’ve been in line when a Starbucks employee walks in and either goes behind the counter and makes their own…

You created an account just so you comment on my smugness? And you used to work for Starbucks “way back”, but you felt the need to go off on me now? I think you may want to see a therapist before you hurt someone. The fact is there are all sorts of Starbucks drink hacks, off menu creations, etc. I don’t act smug or…

Most of your movies, not all. The app has a disclaimer that says “Movies fro Paramount, Lionsgate, MGM, and other non-participating studios are NOT eligible for Movies Anywhere at this time”. I find it ironic that you mentioned John Wick in your article. I bought John Wick 1 and 2 through FandangoNow (discount after…

I will add this, though... if you really do want all the supplements, avoid GNC and similar shops other than for window shopping and go buy it on Amazon for anywhere from 1/3 to 1/2 the price.

I used to do and pre- and post- shakes before all workouts. I used to stretch before all of them too. Over the last year or so I stopped stretching before any workout and went full keto. Since then, my recovery times are easier/shorter/less sore. But with the full keto also came the paleo/primal eating and avoidance…

Avocado oil is a great high smoke point oil if you care about PUFAs and the other not so healthy issues that come from vegetable or canola oil.

I deal with mild scalp and beard dandruff. My scalp solution also works on my face. I use Jason Natural anti dandruff shampoo 2 or 3 days a week on my scalp (spring through fall is twice a week; but as it gets cold and dry out in winter I use it three times a week). While I let it soak in a bit on my scalp, I use the…

As with many health related issues, I think this is really dependent on the person. I’m not a morning person. I sleep til the last minute. So for me, a workout immediately after work is what works. I also tend to be less limber when I first wake up, but by 6pm I’ve been up for 10+ hours and am limber enough. But I…

I disagree about the purple “pass out” part in the groin area. No its not pleasant, but I have one there and it hurt less than the one across my shoulders and spine. The most painful part was the far edge of the groin near my pelvic bone. Of course, all things are subjective including pain. I have a high tolerance for…

See my previous comment.. I charge in the morning for about an hour and can get through my entire work day including a workout or run for 45-60 minutes with Airpods and music playing and even RunKeeper. I’ll typically throw it on the charger while showering after the workout. But then I charge again for 30-60 minutes…

What happened to the rumored sleep tracking app? My guess is its still coming but not til they release an updated Apple Watch with a better battery... or some new software to make the same battery last longer that requires a new Apple Watch (otherwise what other compelling reason will they have to get people to…

To clarify... when I order my double espresso and add two more espresso shots than choose “extra heavy cream”, it DOES charge me for the extra heavy cream. My point is simply this... I can walk in an order an unsweetened iced latte with extra heavy cream. It’ll cost a tad over $5 (I think its like $4.95 for the latte…

Well I’m glad I can avoid being a bully by simply ordering through the app. So now I can save money and feel better about myself too. Thanks!

<insert facepalm> Its not stealing if the app allows you to order the same drink a different way. Imagine if you walked into Chipotle and a “chips and guac” was $5, but you could order chips for $1 and guac for $2 and get the same thing for $3 total. Its the same thing. It’s not stealing... it’s more like using a…

I’ll add that on some occasions I’ll do coconut milk instead of heavy cream. Starbucks charges extra if you substitute any dairy based milk for coconut, soy, or almond milk in the store. But if you order via the app, they don’t seem to UNLESS you order extra <alternative> milk.

Okay... here’s the Starbucks life hack to get your iced (or hot) espresso drink for cheap: USE THE APP! I love some espresso, but I’m one of those pro-keto, low carb people so I add Stevia and I avoid most dairy, but not heavy cream. If I order a macchiato or an iced latte to get four shots, but swap out the dairy for…
