Is it cheaper on average to buy things like tomatoes, garlic, onions, and bell peppers frozen/canned, or buy them fresh and chop them at home? I love vegetables but want don't want to spend a lot to get them.
So I got a zojirushi neuro fuzzy NS-ZCC10. I am new to using a rice cooker. I went to make a batch of regular white. I washed my rice then added the appropriate amount of water. I think here is where I messed up. I added my mix of herbs (chopped thyme, parsley, dill) and salt/pepper on top of the water.
When it finished, there was herbs inside of the steam went and under the inner gasket. The part under the inner lid you remove for cleaning. Into parts that are not meant to be disassembled. I thought I was allowed to use herbs in a rice cooker? Did I make a catastrophic mistake putting my herbs and seasonings on top of the water? Am I always meant to mix them into the rice prior to adding water? Picture for reference to where I found food particles at. No idea what I did wrong.
A family member of mine recently died and left me a fair amount of cash, among other things.
I was paying back debt and was almost back to being debt free after around 5 years before this came upon me, so needless to say I am in no debt. I lived with my mom until she recently passed.
She left me whay money she had saved, her car, and our house. I already had a car of my own which I nearly had paid off, so now I own two cars. I am also a single dad. I have full custody and receive no child support. I had no savings of any kind before this, lived check to check paying back debt while my mom paid our bills with her income.
She left me right around the ballpark of 71,000. Again I own my cars, and my home. I work and make net of around 38,000 a year. I need help budgeting. After doing some home improvements and buying some things, I am down to around 64.5. I need help budgeting l.
#College fund/ 529 account
My son is 4 years old and I have no college fund saved. I know this is a mistake, but I wanted to be debt free before I started saving. I want to start a 529 account. Should I do it on a website like brightstart, or have it through a major investment firm like Fidelity? Does it matter?
How much should I put from my savings into this? After the initial deposit from what I have now, how much should I invest every week/month?
#Retirement
I am 29 years old. I buy into a 401k at work and I put what in what they match which is 6% I think. I have no IRA. Should I start one and if so, where? Major firm like fidelity or vanguard? How much should I invest monthly/weekly?
#Savings
After starting a 529 and possibly IRA, how much should I leave left over for emergency savings? Where should I store my savings, a hysa or something else?
#Bills and food.
Otherwise I think I just need help budgeting utilities and food. How much should I be spending each month on basic utilities and food? I have one phone line and have internet at home. I live in a rural area.
#Cars
I've never owned two cars as I've never had a reason to do so. I thought about putting one in storage. I have no garage. I do not plan on selling. To make them last, should I just drive them equally and maintain them as normal?
One is a 2015 hyundai elantra with 137k miles on it, new motor put in 40k miles ago. The other is a 19 dodge journey with 103k on it. Hyundai is better on gas I've noticed.
New homeower, had some questions about mowing & seeding.
I need to reseed some places, what type of graas do I have? How do I ensure that the grass survives? I'm in north central illinois for reference. Obviously the there's trackmarks in the grass, I just fill those with topsoil, level it out & reseed right?
The third picture is a dip/divet that's always been there. How do I fill in this pit while keeping the grass?
Also this may be for anothet sub but, how do.I keep my grass from clumping when I mow? Just mow it often when it's dry and don't keep the blades too low?
Currently using a z fold 3.
I used my inside screen a lot when it worked but I could live without it.
I like to have a decent camera quality but doesn't have to be insane.
Hoping for a battery that lasts a decent amount of time, actual battery health wise not charge.
I prefer a bigger phone with a bigger screen.
Which phone would be best for me?
Does it need pressure washed?
I usually make scrambled eggs or an omlette by mixing the eggs with a fork or small whisk. I always get white goop that doesn't blend with the yolk. I usually leave the eggs out for a few minutes before cracking them. How do I get a better mixture?
I have no clue what made this guy think this was a good idea.
Had some questions about how to use it correctly. I've looked online but was looking for more personal answers.
Based on the way I'm holding it in the photo, which is the nickel shaper & which is the dime shaper?
How do you use the leather strip & the sandpaper on the side?
Does this tip have good shape? I can seem to get it chalked in the center but not the sides.
I appreciate all answers!
