Indian people in America have been frying on propane/burner rigs in their garages for decades now. I dont know how safe it all is but that culture has an insane fried food culinary tradition + weird obsession with ultra clean houses and tile floors ( so much tile!) so it seems to make perfect sense.

you have a family to care about. he lives with his mom...but i think its more him caring for her. he has nothing to do and few people to depend on.

The Neverfull may have full Basic (TM) status now but there is a reason LV sells the ever living fuck out of those bags. High Quality, durable takes fucking everything. Also see far more status chic Goyard bags. 

meh. the book itself already felt dated when it was published. the main character was painfully sad and unwoke, and it take the whole book for her to get to “being fat doesn’t make me scum”. that’s as far as we get.

listeria and/or toxoplasma (is that how you say it, its the stuff in the litter box cats have) are super common in the soil there, its weird but generally pregnant french women drink wine and avoid salad.

Much respect to you for your choices, even if they are not mine. Calculated risks are still risks and we all make our own calls about which to take.

most of the cheese in the us market is pasteurized. this includes feta, gorgonzola, brie etc. especially if its amreican made. basically if its made in the USA its fine, the worry for listeria are european imports b/c they don’t pasteurize milk as standard practice.

Very Rare risk of listeria infection, of course the most recent outbreaks in the usa were icecream, and veggies, and humus...aka the only things pregos are supposed to eat, you make a choice about if you want to take the risk. The problem is of course if you do get listeria, it will most definitely kill your baby.

so i find the no cheese thing strange. im pregnant too, and all the literature I got basically said as long as its pasteurized its fine. So basically 99% of all the cheese in the U.S. market. Basically unless it was a fancy french import most of the U.S. feta, brie, gorgonzola is pasteurized. When I was pregnant…
