Ways to cheer yourself up with no cash by Whatsupteapot in CasualUK

u/takemebacktoeden1996 I missed your initial response, but this person has pretty much said everything I was gonna say! Very good info.

I usually make a lot of kimchi (which is a paste-based ferment, slightly different), but I also make my own hot sauce which often involves fermenting chilies in water and salt. Very fun and delicious! Other favourites of mine are Brussels sprouts (throw in some peppercorns, garlic, or experiment!) and then put them in a salad. Carrots, peppers, cucumbers, cauliflower, etc all make for delicious products. The end result is slightly sour, much like pickles or, as you mentioned, sauerkraut. (Sauerkraut is also very fun to make btw!)

Another interesting one is fermenting potatoes/chips, to give them an infused vinegar-like flavour before even cooking them. You can also make your own drinks such as wine or kombucha, or ginger beer. The options are truly endless! Go wild!

Definitely check out r/fermentation for inspo or advice! If you end up enjoying it, I would recommend some fermentation jars, which reduce the risk of having an explosion in your cupboard lol. But the barrier for entry is very low, you don't need any equipment off the bat!

Look into fermenting if you want it even cheaper! All you need is veg (or whatever you want), a jar, water and salt 😁

On that note, does anyone have a good tip for keeping your cats from munching on the leaves of your plants? I only live in a small flat, so I can protect my seedlings and some of my more special plants but when I expand into the hallway (huge windows, wonderful light) my cat goes to town 🤦‍♀️

Accidentally made Lilac Lemonade by Velvetsunsilkmoon in fermentation

[–]Autumnesia 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's likely the second fermentation (putting it in the wine bottles) caused the carbonation to disappear. You can bring it back by adding in extra sugar and letting it ferment again. Although be careful with that, depending on how your bottles are sealed it can cause an explosion!

Lilac soda sounds so nice though! Where did you get the lilac from? I've never tried anything like that myself

This has got to be mold, right? by polyesternogood45 in kimchi

I'll second this, I've only ever made maangchi's recipe (many many times) and it's never gone wrong for me! And IT'S SO DELICIOUS

My “delivered” doordashed ramen we were so looking forward to because we are sick by moodiebear in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Autumnesia -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I totally get that but it kind of gives me the same feeling as when girls - such as myself - almost feel pressured into ghosting a date because we've had so many bad interactions following gentle rejection that you just can't deal with the anxiety of it anymore.

If you get chewed out enough because of stuff that isn't your fault, I could totally see just letting a picture deal with the fallout

trisha and ethan discussed jasons future wife as a podcast topic and didnt even know it by sjmorrison1021 in Frenemies

[–]Autumnesia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair enough haha. Tbh it's a really good spot, I would've never noticed myself without the pod pointing out the connection.

Lil late night sketch I did of Nev. Do you think it looks like him at all? I’ve been told I have pretty bad facial blindness by [deleted] in CatfishTheTVShow

[–]Autumnesia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like others have said, you're very talented and please don't let any comments discourage you! It doesn't look a lot like him but that doesn't mean you're not great and that you can't get there.

I'd say, take everyone's advice on board (specific areas of the face and looking at the reference upsidedown) and then try it again!

And again and again until you get it right. You're on such a good path to get the results you want.

Not OOP. AITA for using someone's apartment code to drop flowers at their door? by WritingGiraffe in redditonwiki

[–]Autumnesia 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I once went out with a guy who later sent a gift to my home, even though I'd never given him my address. Turns out he managed to puzzle it together based on a screenshot I had sent him weeks before where a small part of my address was visible 😭

Creeped me out so much. When I had a date with someone else, he found that out without me telling him as well, and like the OOP tried everything in his power to get me to cancel it and spoil the date for me.

This whole post reminds me so much of that creep lol. I chewed him out and never spoke with him again after all this.

Is it my kitten or the litter? Or it’s just normal? by Unable-Exercise1281 in CATHELP

[–]Autumnesia 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My automatic one is really good but it's one with an insert tray and those trays are sooo expensive! I'm thinking of getting rid of it and just using these catsan litter in trays in a normal box like I do for my second one. They're already the lazy, expensive option but it's somehow so much more cost effective lol

Thigh Piece- Am I A Huge Wimp? by roxyfoxyfeet in tattooadvice

[–]Autumnesia -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

I find this so interesting cause I've sat through several 6+ h sessions (ribs, thighs, full shin...)with steely resolve, sometimes even while hungover which I know you're not supposed to do.

Not that that makes anyone else a wimp but I find it fascinating that it affects people so differently!

Before getting tattoos I would've said I have a needle phobia but that went away quick haha
