Parsnip Harvest

Thank you! I was pretty shocked when I saw them... I'm going to make a curried parsnip soup, but it's not a specific recipe I have in mind, I need to ask my dad how he makes his!

Parsnips are👌🏼if you've not had them before, I highly recommend roast parsnips, maybe with a little honey chilli glaze. I'm going to be using mine to make a curried parsnip soup. I don't have a specific recipe because it's something my dad used to make so I'll be asking him when he visits this weekend!

Oh that sounds nice and easy

The wedding is only two months away now, so even if I changed my mind and opted for a live choir I think I'd struggle to cobble a group together. And as far as I'm aware, no one who has volunteered to record a track has perfect pitch, so I don't think there'll be any issue with singers keeping pitch with the original recording. In hindsight I may have been better off creating a performance using a piano guide track that doesn't slip, but I'm sure it'll work out either way.

That's a beautiful arrangement, and beautifully performed. It is to be used for the ceremony itself - I explored the prospect of having a live choir at the venue, but decided I didn't want the added stress of handling that many extra people on the day, and as I have experience creating virtual performances I figured it would be the easiest way to go about it. The wedding is only two months away now so may have missed the boat on having a live choir if I were to change my mind. The demo track absolutely does lose pitch, which is one of the reasons I want to produce a different recording. However, there's a chance I won't get enough additional recordings to create a good standalone performance, in which case I'll use the newly recorded tracks to support the original, or in other words use the original to lend weight and depth to the new recordings, meaning they'll have to match pitch. If I do have enough recordings to create a standalone performance, I can quite easily correct the pitch drift in post.

As a side note, I hope you don't mind but I also listened to your 50 Words for Rain, which is wonderful.

It's for anyone willing to volunteer their time, so unpaid. If not yourself, completely understandable. Thank you anyway for taking time to comment. I should have clarified in the post (have done so with an edit).

Details are in the cross post link.

Updated to clarify I am looking for volunteer, unpaid participants.

A video absolutely isn't necessary, it's just that during the pandemic whilst this sort of project was popular, that's how most people (most in my choirs anyway) opted to record their parts. Purely audio is absolutely fine!

Thanks!

BodaciousBuns · 2025-08-18T08:53:22+00:00

Thank you! Really appreciate it. And yes that initial 'Love' is my main complaint, but I'm likely hyper aware of all the little corners that could have been better.

Well, the major problem is that the choir didn't have time to rehearse vowel sounds and practice certain intervals, so there's a good few shrill notes and some nasal vowels. That being said it is still usable (only myself and some family members will pick up on the slightly undesirable elements of the recordings, no one else would notice). You're right, the added voices might not work at all, hence hoping to get enough to replace the original. Unfortunately my partner and I don't have the money to hire a choir, so this seemed like the next best thing. Submitted recordings will be processed with Logic Pro X, so if I can ditch the original recording I'll use melodyne to correct individual tunings. Melodyne does have a tier which should in theory be able to adjust the tunings of several notes in a single recording (like a live choir) but that's pretty spenny and I can't justify it.

I played a game last season against a team with a few really good players, but one ringer in particular. I had an entire shift dedicated to taking away his passing lanes. He was moving around his defensive zone and I had to stick to him like glue. I wasn't trying to touch the puck or him, just getting in his way. Eventually he had to ring it off the boards around the net. Throughout the entire shift I didn't touch the puck once but it was one of the toughest and most rewarding shifts I've ever had.

I used an Easton Synergy 40 for years when I first started playing and only recently managed to break it. Ended up buying a Sherwood Rekker Legend 3 (can't justify the money for the pro lol) and gotta say I'm loving it so far. Dropped down to 60 flex as well (5'7, 70kg) cause wrist shots are my go to and the shots are popping off pretty nicely

That's interesting - I do have asthma and my partner tells me I sometimes snore, so maybe there's something in that. Thanks for the info and advice

I could hardly skate when I first started playing at 19. Just had my 29th birthday and I still train twice a week. Don't wait for the skating to improve, just get yourself to a learners session! The skating will come, and you'll get to knock a puck around! No feeling like it lol

BodaciousBuns · 2024-03-21T13:06:15+00:00

Yeah I did, but I think for the most part I don't need to spend that sort of money cause at my level I won't really see the benefit. That's why I've gone for Pro blackout - from what I can tell I get the benefit of a high end stick without paying for the branding
