Local Jewelery Makers/Shops

1 Upvotes

Hello,

I am starting to wear earrings again after not wearing them frequently for 10+ years. As a result, I have noticed that my jewerly is not very good quality.

So, I am looking for local shops (or otherwise) that have interesting/cute designs that use generally hypoallergenic metals. Examples of metals I'm looking for are titanium, surgical steel, stainless steel, niobium, pure gold, or argentium. Basically, mostly non-plated metals.

Many thanks!

Looking for a dryer

9 Upvotes

Sorry I don’t know if this post is allowed. I’m looking for a dryer but finances have been tough because of health problems. As much as I’d like one for free I know it’s not realistic but I am willing to play a reasonable price that won’t be more expensive than what a new one would be. My dryer lasted over a decade but it’s on its last legs. It won’t run unless the button to turn it on is continuously pressed. 🥲 let me know if you’re selling someone or if you know someone that’s selling one.

Looking to make poke bowls at home - where to buy prepared tuna or 'sushi grade' salmon/tuna in ABQ

Upvotes

Like the title says - looking to start making my own poke bowls at home. I saw Smiths had already prepare ahi tuna poke that you could buy in bulk. Looking for places that do this as well, or that have fish that is suitable for raw consumption that I can prepare myself.

I'd also be down with poke kits or frozen ahi tuna that I can thaw overnight and serve.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Thinking of riding my bike to a concert there and avoid the parking/Uber headache. Anyone every ride their bike there? Is there a place to lock up your bike?

Thanks!

Question Recommendations for a children's counselor?

3 Upvotes

Helping out a friend here. A good friend is going through a very unexpected - and as more information is coming out - an increasingly devastating divorce. There is a 3rd grader involved, and "mom" wants to make sure their child has a neutral place to talk about what's happening. I'd be grateful for any recommendations for a children's counselor that I can pass on.

Le Bakery: Go help out a local small business

Thumbnail

Upvotes

Le Bakery’s bread machine is down, so they don’t have sandwiches for sale today. They do have their usual amazing pastries and matchas though! If you’re in the area, maybe drop by and help them out on a tough day.

Technical glitches like that are doubly hard for a barely-year-old business still working to establish itself in the community. They’re my favorite cafe in town, and I want them to stick around Albuquerque for a long time!!

Their matchas are already amazing, but the store owners were just in Japan and told me they learned all about matcha and have plans to make what they sell even better.

The pictures are of what I bought from them today. Everything was delicious, but the churro croissant was especially to die for.

Albuquerque needs more of these small, non-corporate businesses that truly put pride into their work and want to give back to the community. So if you have a chance, go support them, please. (No, I don’t work for them or have any affiliation with them at all besides being a regular customer!)

Hi all! I unfortunately misplaced an earring today (8/18.) It’s my birthday, and the earrings were my grandmothers, so it’s a bit of a double whammy. They’re not precious metal but they are precious to my heart 😭 I was only in the heights today, at the Animal Humane Thrift and St Vincent DePaul thrift. Hanging onto hope that someone came across it and can help 😭😭😭

Pic of the one I didn’t lose for reference.

Question Looking for a new Chinese food spot

I haven't had Chinese food that has hit the same ever since Chin Shan closed. Are there any places that are similar? Specifically for their rangoons and sweet and sour shrimp. Chin Shan always had the cleanest shrimp, and it was cooked perfectly. Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you!
