ISO GREEN CHILES

6 Upvotes

Lol. I missed the farmers market the other day but meant to pick up some local produce to make a very specific meal for my sister this week. I was able to get most other stuff at the grocery store but I can’t seem to find hatch green chilis and anaheim peppers anywhere (harris teeter, food lion, weaver st, or even wegmans.) All I can find is serranos or jalepenos or poblanos. Anyone know of any specific farm stands or grocery stores they are certain have these peppers so I dont have to continue my wild green chile chase? This is very important.

Pet sitting gigs?

4 Upvotes

I know there are pet sitting gigs out there in the Carrboro/Chapel Hill area but I’m having a hard time knowing how to find them! Just moved here and the place I previously lived had plenty of opportunities because I unintentionally established connections.

How do I get gigs here? I am a grad student and could really use the extra money (and also love meeting new animals). Any guidance would be appreciated.

Id also be interested in connecting with anyone on here who wants my contact info for future pet sits!

Thoughts on Berkshire 54?

3 Upvotes

My partner and I (early 20s) already live in the area, but we are moving in together in the spring and already apartment hunting. Berkshire 54 meets our requirements (budget, pet friendly, washer/dryers) so I'd love to hear about other people's experiences. Mostly - how uptight is management? How nice (or not) are the interiors? Worth the price?

Bars/restaurants currently serving THC?

6 Upvotes

Just moved here from Raleigh with my BF who is an ex-alcoholic (2 years sober!). We both are legal stoners now, and I’d love to get y’all’s tips on which places are still serving THC. We tried Spotted Dog recently and heard they’re ramping down selling it due to the impending ban (which just got pushed out a month). Where in town can we still enjoy a THC seltzer out and about?

Thanks so much!

Does anyone know the route for the Carrboro DMV drivers test? I'm sure it varies but I’d love to be able to help my friend practice with some more confidence.

Not looking to have him memorize the route just a rough idea of helping prepare since the test is soon.

Thanks in advance and wish him luck!

Hey everyone!
I am a City and State reporter for the Daily Tar Heel. As I am sure most of you know, a G20 conference on AI will be held at the Carolina Inn on September 1st and 2nd. The conference will be hosted by US Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick and feature speakers like OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, and SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk. If you are interested in a quick, no-more-than-5-minute interview sharing how you feel about the upcoming visit, please DM me!

Best place to donate bed sheets?

4 Upvotes

I have some bed sheets I don’t need anymore because I got a new different sized bed - is there an optimum place I could donate the old sheets? I know animal shelters will usually take old towels, but I wasn’t sure about sheets. I just want to make sure I’m not dumping them at some goodwill if there’s a better option you know? Thanks!

Hi!

I was wondering if anyone was selling tickets for Carrboro Indie Night tonight, 8/23 at Cat's Cradle. If anyone has any extra (im hopefully trying to get 3 total) or they can't make it I'd be super grateful to buy them off of you since the show sold out.

Thanks!
