Where to find red bean buns?

Hi everyone,

I want to bring my grandma some red bean buns (common Asian sweet/dessert bun) when I visit her in Waterloo but I have no idea where to get some since I'm coming from out of state. Has anyone seen these being sold somewhere? Brand doesn't matter.

Thank you!

Fire Rescue

Does anyone know anything about the fire trucks by the roundabout on University & Fletcher around 6:45am this morning? I tried listening to the scanner but didn’t hear anything about it. Just curious what was going on.

What the hell was that? That was real right? I'm not imagining it?

best place to loiter in the waterloo/CF area?

I'm bored as hell today and I feel like just hanging out somewhere but idk what a good place would be. Preferably outside, or I'd be at the library. I thought about the skate park but I can't skate so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Job advise needed. Should I stay at Tyson or work at a nursing home as a CNA

Hey all, I’m a first year college student. My classes are all in the morning. Monday first class is A&P1 from 8am-9:20am and lab from 9:30-11:30, next class is composition from 12:30-1:50pm. Tuesday is pre algebra at 9:30-10:20pm. And Wednesday is A&P from 8am-9:20am then composition at 12:30-1:50. Thursday is pre algebra again from 12:30-1:50pm. I’m nervous about having time to study and homework. I’ve been at Tyson for 6 years and I have a decent floor production job. It’s ok I have days where I like it there but other days where I hate it and want a new job. Tyson’s hours are 2:45-12:30am pay is $20.00 I went to get my CNA certificate about 5 months ago but I haven’t left Tyson. I applied and got a offer from a local nursing home and I’m considering it. The hours would be 2:30-10:00pm. Pay $19.00. What should I do? I could go part time at Tyson, or go try the CNA position.

Looligan Board Game Night

Hey murder muffins! Our group will meet again to contest matches upon the board! Monday, August 26 from 6-?pm at Single Speed Brewery in Waterloo! It has been a little while since our last gaming meeting, summer has been busy. If you've thought about coming, please show up! We have a diverse inventory of games for every player level! We would also like to get some more crunchy games going too, so don't think we only play Candy Land.

We are also putting polls and needing feedback from everyone. Please consider joining our Discord here: https://discord.com/invite/dfJpVX7A

That should be a good permanent link. Come on down to Single Speed Brewery in Waterloo on Monday, August 26 to play some games, meet some excellent people, and have a couple nice beverages!

Date advice for Downtown Cedar Falls 22m - pt2

Hi, I'm meeting a girl at downtown cedar falls this week. Our plan is to meet up, walk around downtown and waste a bit of time getting to know each other and maybe finding something to do***. While we're doing that im going to order us a pizza from Urban Pie and take it somewhere along the river and have a little picnic.(Need locations here) I have a outdoor blanket and stuff for grass assuming we sit on the ground. while we are eating i have Guess Who game and a bluetooth speaker for entertainment and gap filling.

Lastly I like to get creative sometimes, and if the dates going well.... so I lay back my front car seats and we can sit in the back with my 32 inch TV + Nintendo Switch combo that is running on car battery. (yes it works, this will be a first if we make it there but I think it's hilarious) she's a gamer too

***- my question: she doesn't want to do hatchet throwing, so wondering if there is anything fun to waste like 30 min+ rather than walking around aimlessly at the beginning of the date. Even like a park is something. Double tap seems okay but tbh I've never been there and don't know what to do? Like do you have to buy drinks to play games? Etc.

ANY ADVICE RECOMMENDED. Don't want to f this up, just want to give her a nice time. The beginning of the date is the most unsure for me, yet it's almost the most important part.

Salsa Dancing?

Looking for salsa dancing in the area. They use to have it at the Octopus, but that was awhile ago. Open to latin dancing anywhere in the Cedarloo area.

First Date ideas for 22M

I actually live about an hour away but she lives in Waverly and I don't want her to have to drive far. It seems like Waterloo might be a good option but I have literally never been there. I would appreciate any tips or advice for good date spots at or around Waterloo!

I don't really prefer sit-down dinner dates but if there's a really good place then please comment that too! Otherwise activities would be more fun.

Bosnian Cultural Fest

Starting tonight, Friday Aug. 16 at 6pm at the Waterloo Convention Center, a weekend long celebration of the Bosnian culture and recognition of the diaspora of 1996-1997 will begin! https://www.kwwl.com/video/organizers-with-kraji-ki-teferi-talk-about-the-weekend-long-festival/video_bc938871-f1e5-52cf-83fc-8307f286d67b.html

Unlike Irish Fest or Oktoberfest, this celebration of Bosnian culture moves between areas with large amounts of refugees, such as Chicago or St. Louis. Btw, St. Louis has 75,000 people of direct Bosnian ancestry, making it the largest population of Bosnians outside of Bosnia!

If you are Bosnian, of Bosnian heritage, or just want to celebrate another ethnicity that makes Waterloo awesome, attend the events this weekend! $10 at the door tonight but tomorrow is free, at the Cedar Valley Soccer Complex for tournaments and food.

Seeking a Teacher

I know this is kind of a longshot, but I had a teacher named Mr. Wright, spelling could be off, in fourth grade. He inspired me a lot and I've grown up to do decently well for myself. He taught at Longfellow elementary, the one that was torn down, and I'd just like to reach out to him via email or whatever other means. I am not in the state anymore(might return soon), but it would mean a lot to just acknowledge his role in my life. I was in fourth grade in around 1999-2000. Any help would mean a lot.

Judo?

My wife wants to start taking judo. I can’t find anywhere in the CV or CR area that does judo lessons. Only jiu jitsu or karate. Does anyone know anyone local that does classes?

TIA!
