Hey man, if this is just your way of telling us that you're not doing ok and that your life is terrible and you want to end it we are here to help. Sometimes a group hug is all it takes. Or crashing your car into a tree or a nail salon.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has issued its own recall for several popular brands of frozen waffles over possible listeria contamination following a manufacturer recall late last week.

Various frozen waffle products sold in Canada and the U.S. are being recalled after testing revealed possible listeria bacteria contamination at a manufacturing facility in Brantford, Ont.

The CFIA recall appears to include two additional brands not covered in the recall last week.

The manufacturer TreeHouse Foods had already issued a recall on Friday, “due to the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes.”

Listeria monocytogenesis an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or older people, and others with weakened immune systems.

“Treehouse Foods reached out to the CFIA on October 16, 2024, regarding their recall of various brands of frozen waffles due to Listeria and the CFIA began a food safety investigation that same day,” a CFIA spokesperson said in a statement.

Safeway sells non frozen ones, can find them near the strawberries where I live. There better than frozen but probably not as good as making them yourself.

Nope, I have a gas furnace. I've never heard of anyone around here having one.

Now I lost an opportunity to throw those extra Lego pieces all over the floor and hopefully that old crow steps on them cuz she likes to walk around the office barefoot sometimes.

What's a normal amount to pay for gas? We have two gas fireplaces we use occasionally, gas furnace and gas hot water tank. The furnace is quite old and I'm guessing not very efficient, but the house seems decently insulated and our windows were updated.

It's been a while, but your first bill may have a one-time connection fee, so it may not be "normal".

If not, then $135 does sound pretty high as my TH was $52 for my last bill (Oct 19).

Although as the weather gets colder and colder, your next bill may not be much better lol. I think mine tops out at around ~$140-$160 during the winter

Anyone or any relatives apply for a NEW canadian passport recently? not renewal
Website states you need a guarantor, but does not state if they need to come with you, or not, for the application.

Website does not have a phone number, nor do their offices.

My parents renewed a few months ago and didn't need their guarantor to accompany them in person.

68style 10-23-2024 04:13 PM

Guarantor doesn't even sign on the app, you just put their info

Great68 10-23-2024 06:18 PM

For NEW applications Guarantors do have to sign. Renewals do not (they're just labelled as "references" on the renewal form). Guarantors do not have to accompany you to the passport office.

Do any of you know a barber or hair stylist that has an extra facial/massage service on top of the hair cut? I've been seeing these barbers on my reels who do like face massages/hot towel service and want to try it out.

underscore 10-23-2024 07:47 PM

I had to apply from scratch 2 years ago and it was what Great68 said. Going into the office is functionally the same as mailing it in, just quicker.

On a side note be sure to take a picture of or write your passport number somewhere. If your passport is lost or damaged and you have the number you can get a new one as a renewal which is way easier. If you don't have the number you have to apply for a new passport with a Guarantor.

Scotch and fades on w3rd

Once you get past the mental block of a dude massaging your face its quite nice (let the facial jokes begin)

If you are able to go in person, I'd recommend doing that.

When I renewed my passport a few months ago, and went to Service Canada in person to submit application, the SC staff checked overed my application and corrected 2 or 3 things for me despite my best attempt to fill everything out correctly. Apparently I was also required to sign an additional form of some sort -- I forgot why I even needed to do that. Obviously I didn't realized I needed it, so they printed a copy out for me on the fly, and I just filled it in right there and then.

Had I mailed my application in, these little things would probably have caused a good amount of delay, or maybe even a rejection to the renewal.

Tommy Guns does it, extra $29 for 20 minutes I think? They go through a whole process of multiple hot towels and various creams and lotions. And depending on locations its mostly ladies at those hahaha... it's a recent add-on, I tried it when there was a promo in August I think it was like $15 or something half price when they were trial testing it.

Oh nice. I'll give them a shot the next time around. This one sounds like more of an experience.
Seems to be $63 for cut and Aveda Facial.

Thanks

I don’t think you’re gonna find what you’re looking for lol

68style 10-24-2024 08:36 AM

That looks like user error to me hahahaha

Great68 10-24-2024 09:08 AM

I mean, the waffles are only going to be as good as the batter you use, and well those pre-made mixes are garbage IMO.

You want good waffles, you have to expend the effort with an overnight yeast batter: https://www.thekitchn.com/recipe-ove...-kitchn-199052
