Shelf stable or simple sauces for IBS?

My daughter has IBS and has a very limited range of foods she can eat. For lunch and dinner, she usually has a starch (rice or pasta) with steamed vegetables and sometimes chicken, ham, or turkey. I keep cooked rice, pasta, and veggies in the refrigerator for her because she likes to assemble her own food for every meal. She will typically put either marinara sauce or teriyaki sauce on top of the food. We had added pesto into the mix recently, but she started saying it was upsetting her stomach so we took that back off the menu. It was too greasy for her, I think. I'm looking for suggestion of what sauces she can try to add more flavor variety to her limited diet. She has to avoid oily (even healthy oils) and spicy foods. Sauces that can be made-ahead and stored in the fridge are preferred. Thanks for the help.

I enjoyed OUATIW more than OUAT.

OUATIW was forced to wrap up in one season because it wasn't renewed, and I think that lead to a much stronger story than OUAT ultimately ended up having. The length of OUAT was its weakness, and by the end of the series there were so many inconsistencies, dropped plot lines, and loose ends that it was a hot mess. While OUATIW wasn't perfectly tied up, it stayed fairly coherent because there wasn't time to randomly add characters, twists, and turns just to fill episodes.

Don't get me wrong, the best parts of OUAT are much better than anything in OUATIW. But comparing them story to story, I think OUATIW is stronger.

OUAT and Mad Men

I just finished watching Mad Men for the first time, and I couldn't help but notice a few familiar OUAT faces throughout the show. Jared Gilmore actually left his role as Bobby Draper in Mad Men after landing the part of Henry Mills.

Need help deciding...

These aren't strictly dolls, but they do have articulation so I thought I'd sneak in here and ask you guys for your thoughts. I'm planning to buy one of these figures for my birthday, but I am really torn. Which one would you pick?

Is the doll inflation bubble going to burst?

The prices of MH dolls are higher than ever before. It feels like there is no end in sight to this inflation. Do you think these prices will ever go back down?

The last slide is how much I spent on dolls back in 2017/2018. God, I wish I had bought more.

Pictures don't do justice to how beautiful she is.

She is my favorite Lagoona I own now. What a stunning doll. Even the box is gorgeous, and has a pleasing textured glittery finish.

Has anyone ever seen the tv series 'The Charmings'?

I was reading up on some older tv shows and came across this listing about a little known series called 'The Charmings.' The synopsis jumped out at me because it reminds me of OUAT. Has anyone on here heard of or seen this show before? I'd love to know if it had any other similarities to OUAT other than the characters and modern setting.

Whose jewelry is this?

I found this in the middle of my living room. I have no idea which of my dolls it came from. The letters SH lead me to believe Shadow High. Anyone recognize it?​​

First time logging on in 18 years. This is my inventory.

I used to love Gaia so much. I went online every day with my sister back in its heyday. I got a fit of nostalgia so I decided to check out Gaia for old time's sake. Really brings back some bittersweet memories.

ISO this pride poster (looking to buy it)

I loved this artwork so much when it was released, but never actually bought it because "I'll just get it next time." There is no more next time because it sold out. Now that I'm setting up a room for my monster high collection, I'd love to have this poster to hang on the wall. Does anyone on here have it that is looking to sell it?

Edit: I'm getting a few scammers contacting me via private message. I guess I shouldn't be surprised when posting an ISO. I'll post their account names in the comments so y'all know to avoid them.

PSA: Moonspell packaging flaw causing damage to some dolls. Check your dolls.

The plastic window presses against the nose of some dolls and rubs the paint away. I've seen this damage on 3 separate Moonspell dolls. Two Rae dolls and one Claire. One I received in the mail and the other 2 were at my local store. All 3 dolls sold by Target (not the same location).

I've attached pictures of the Rae I received in the mail. The white streaks are on the plastic window and caused by the paint being rubbed away by the plastic. The damage is at the tip of her nose.

Could my serpae tetra be killing my ramshorn snails?

Picture is of all the dead snails I've found in my tank over the past 2 days.

I had to temporarily quarantine 2 serpae tetra in a 5 gallon tank where I keep all my extra plants and snails. I had a colony of orange ramshorns that I was quite fond of in the quarantine tank. Over the past few days, I've found quite a lot of them dead at the bottom of the tank. I collected their remains in a small cup and moved all the living snails into a separate tank. Could the serpae be killing these snails? The only other thing that changed was I added a heater at the same time I added the tetra. The water was 73 degrees Fahrenheit and is now holding steady at 80 degrees.

Tank parameters

0ppm ammonia

0ppm nitrite

10ppm nitrate

pH 6.4 (it has been at this pH for months, and the snails have never died off until these past 2 days)
