Completely unrelated: Holy shit I love your handle. Just reading it put me in a time machine to my younger self and the shock I had at seeing what he looked like without a hat for the first time.

That’s one of the things I clean on the regular! Simply boiling vinegar and water 1:2 (maybe more dilute could do it - we have hard water) in it works wonders!

I never clean the oven because apparently I’ve never had anything spill over. Until these past two weekends, when I’ve had the oil from roasting garlic leak out, and a boiled over pot pie. Any tips on cleaning this up that don’t require me buying anything (Easy-Off smells terrible and I’m used to cleaning everything…

This article may have changed my life - booze ball experiment #1 had amaretto, ground almonds and graham wafers, rolled in icing sugar. Highly recommended!

Did you have numb spots too? Every morning I woke up to a different section of my leg numb.

I just had my first dosa filled with veggies last week and now I can’t stop thinking about them.

Your question made me curious! What I learned was that beekeepers keep many many extra queens on hand for their royal jelly specifically, while leaving the normal reproducing queen to do her thing and maintain the health of the hive. According to the FAO it requires ‘skilled techniques of honeybee colony manipulation’…

Two anesthesiologists had to jam that needle into my back about ten times each to get it to work. The first told me that the spaces between my discs was too small - missed with her last shot and completely numbed me from the waist down. Because that wears off more quickly than a proper epidural, a few hours later I…

Have you also tried my grandmother’s favorite - Sex in a Pan? Also referred to as Robert Redford Squares in her church lady circles.

I was never so disappointed in a mascara in my life than I was with Diorshow. I’ve tried as many types as I can for many years, and so far Clinique’s High Impact Curling (bonus points for being the waterproof, peels-off type) Benefit’s RollerLash and Maybellines LashSensational (best drug store brand) are the winners.…

When tragedy came to my husband and I, his parents brought us all the stuff to make various types of sandwiches. It was the most practical, perfect thing I could ask for <3

Or use it in homemade salad dressing!!

Is there any reason I can’t use fresh pasta sheets instead of par-cooked lasagna noodles for this?

We have a bomb calorimeter in my lab that we use most often to assess the calories in animal diets! It’s an older model that makes a fair bit of noise but I still get excited whenever I need to use it :)

1) peeling eggs is always a pain in the ass 2) they smell worse than poached 3) maybe I’m just a lucky human that’s better at poached eggs than any other style other than omelette?

So how rare is municipal composting services in the US? My garbage has no drips because all organics get tossed in the green bin outside, taken away weekly to a facility that then provides the nicely aged compost to people willing to pick it up, and the town for landscaping projects.

Roasting all the cold weather veggies (turnip, carrot, parsnip, squash, potato, sweet potato) with garlic and some chunks of onion and blending it with whatever stock I have on hand (sometimes it’s just the the liquid from soaking dried ‘shrooms) continues to be the easiest and best tasting soup, and I have a hard…

I’m so sorry to hear of your loss. My son was stillborn on his due date. I went in with 4 minute apart contractions like we’re told to do. Four nurses tried to find a heartbeat and couldn’t, called the doc in to make sure and that’s when I was given the worst news of my life. And then my labour straight up stopped. My…

It’s my favorite episode. Others are good, but sometimes more disturbing and upsetting. Nothing beats the beauty and sweetness of San Junipero, at least for me.

I hear you! I’m 33 and I remember being fascinated with it, and recall enjoying how she didn’t take shit. But the only actual plot I remember is when she had a baby but couldn’t/wouldn’t decide what to name it (I think Avery was the decision??)
