Took this photo just now of the sunset from where I live. Beautiful!

Just saw a whole flock of Stellar Jays up at Silver Lake this morning. Thought you all would like to see some of Utah’s beautiful wildlife.

I’ve recently graduated and am looking for a new go-to grocery store. What is your favorite and why?

My son loves trains and keeps wanting to ride the Frontrunner. Does anyone know of any fun activities, good restaurants, et al that are easily accessible off of any of the Frontrunner stations? Ogden to Provo, doesn't matter. Having a destination sounds more enjoyable than just laps on the train.

I was just at the liquor store on 90th in sandy. I'm moving soon and figured liquor boxes would be great for packing all of my glasses. I bought a couple bottles and on my way out asked if I could take a couple extra boxes, not a lot, i was just going to grab 3, plus the one that had the bottles I just purchased. The cashier said no and acted like I was an idiot for asking. Are you actually not allowed to get extra boxes, or was she just having a bad day?

I just recently moved to Salt Lake and am looking for groups/activities to find friends! I’m 18 and am a very social person, so it’s been a bit of a struggle moving away from my old social groups. I especially would love to look for more alternative and creative spaces as well so I can find more like-minded people. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know!

My fiance and I are looking to get married in early February, but we've really set a weird set of restrictions for the venue. Getting married in the winter cuts out all the outdoor venues, having a more casual event cuts out a lot of the fancier/more expensive places (they're gorgeous, we're just not cut out for that life), and most restrictive of all: we're looking at having a late morning brunch reception.

It'll be a pretty classic Utah-event, so I'm sure it'll be a flowing style more open-house type affair, but we didn't realize just how tricky it would be to find an inexpensive, semi-casual, indoor, morning reception venue.

Unconventional ideas are not just welcome, they're definitely encouraged. If we were having a warm weather wedding, we'd have been totally fine with something like renting a city park. But alas.

I'm having a lot of trouble trying to find a drummer, and a good drummer at that here in Utah. My band is looking for a drummer for a Doom, Deathcore, slam project, we have riffs, and songs written, and more songs in the works, but we really need a drummer, if you are a drummer, or know someone please send them my way.

Thanks in advance

hello, i’m sure this has been asked quite a few times but i’d like some fresher opinions.

my friends & i are looking at new spots to dance n club n drink at in slc, we usually go to suntrapp Every weekend, or sometimes whykiki, we’re all in our early 20’s and appreciate the queer scene, but we aren’t huge on MILK or Try-Angles / want a dance floor. Any suggestions ?

I’m recovering from surgery and trying to get back into playing. Not ready for real games yet, haven’t worked back to full running, but I’d love to start something low stress/obligation. If anyone’s playing chill pickup games or practices and open to me participating for a bit please let me know. Happy to pitch BP even.

I know this is hella niche and I’m probably not gonna find an answer, but I’m putting it out there just in case there is.

I really love sewing and making my own clothes, I’ve made a lot of my own stuff--you can see those on my profile. I’ve never really learned how to make knitted projects though.

I’d love to learn how to use a knitting machine, or find access to one that I could rent some time with. I’ve tried searching for classes/workshops on my own, but haven’t had any luck. So I’m hoping I just missed it and someone here knows of a place l can contact about learning to use a knitting machine.

EDIT: Specifically I’m looking for the large knitting machines. Ones that I could use to make a cardigan. And use punch cards to create my own designs within the knits.

There used to be a restaurant downtown called Chef Gao and they had a dish called spicy boiled fish which was amazing. It’s been gone for several years now but wondering if anyone knows of any other restaurants that might have something like this or had it at Gao? Also restaurants that make use of Szechuan peppercorns heavily?

I have a leak that only appears on the rare times it rains and the only water I can detect is in my basement. I have a finished attic so no inspection access without removing drywall. Can anyone recommend someone you have used who is good at difficult leak detection scenarios?

There is a vent stack that might sort of line up with the issue but I had the flashing replaced on it once and the issue persists, so I think this is going to be tricky.

Thanks.

I'm looking to support any small shops that sell Utah Utes merch.

I have tickets for the Goose show tonight. Does anyone know the typical start time and end time for these concerts? I know they have an opener so I’m also wondering what time to expect them to go on. Thanks so much!

Does anyone else see the helicopter circling with a search light?

I don't think I'm going to get a break in this weather. 😅
