what is the best way to curve your appetite late at night?

Posted by admin

i work 3-11pm and get a lunch break any where from 7-8. i tend to eat more when i try not to eat so much at that time of night. any ideas? i might eat a sandwhich or a salad. something that is light & won’t be to heavy for my stomach. i end up snacking on pistachios or banana chips & just don’t feel like i get full. i drink plenty of water during the time.

looking for an ivy to cover my wood fences?

Posted by admin

I live in bakersfield and am looking for a ivy or something to cover my fences. I am looking for something that will attach itself directly to the fence and cover it with a wall of green. I have been recommeneded boston ivy but I would like to get some suggestions on what other options there are along with how fast they grow.

Here is some addl info on bakersfield’s climate:

Bakersfield’s climate is a semi-arid dry steppe climate (Koppen climate classification BSh), defined by long, hot, dry summers and brief, cool, sometimes rainy winters. In fact, Bakersfield is one of the sunniest cities in the U.S. (just behind Yuma, Arizona and Palm Springs, California). Bakersfield enjoys long-lasting, mild autumns and early springs, giving the region a unique climate suitable for growing a wide variety of crops (ranging from citrus to carrots to almonds and pistachios). With an average rainfall of only 6.49 inches (165 mm) per year, most precipitation falls during winter and spring. Typically, no rain falls from May through September. Summers tend to be very hot in Bakersfield with daily temperatures usually exceeding 100 °F (38 °C) from mid June to as late as mid September, and occasionally exceeding 110 °F (43 °C). Winters often have mild daytime temperatures reaching into the low 60s°F (15 °C). Mornings and nights however, tend to be cold (especially in December and January), where lows can reach as low as 20 °F (−7 °C),

Why do asians like pistachio flavored gelato (ice cream) so much?

Posted by admin

I work in a gelato ice cream shop where we serve pistachio flavored ice cream. Its in southern california where there is a large population of asians, and they almost always seem to order pistachio or hazelnut flavored gelato, to the point where i just start scooping it when i see an asian walking up. If i had to put a number on it, i’d say 90% of the time they order pistachio and/or hazelnut, but usually pistachio.
