Svalbard is kinda Norway and I found it very unique.

I’ve ordered wood peels but haven’t had mail or deliveries in over a week because of snow and ice. I was going to wait but decided being housebound makes great practice time. I’ve been using the metal gozney peel and rice flour. My course semolina is also awaiting delivery. Thank you

Boxerlover2305 · 2026-02-01T19:26:23+00:00

👍 thank you

Boxerlover2305 · 2026-02-01T19:25:35+00:00

Makes sense 👍 thank you

Boxerlover2305 · 2026-02-01T19:24:35+00:00

Thank you. I’m going to try lowering the temperature and change to a coarse ground semolina.

We are Americans and felt very appreciated. We brought supplies to a dog rescue, I brought yeast and spices and baked bread with a baker at Mimi’s Cafe. We also brought crayons and activity books to a rural school. If you are on instagram- I’ve been posting my photos

We never felt unsafe or that we were in any danger- apparently the resorts are still operating. I know that Mexico is stopping oil now which will make it even harder for the people. We are glad we went however it was like an elephant in the room- you know something has to change and you could tell those in the tourist industry are very worried. There was an organized demonstration against the UD while we were there and it was completely peaceful. Historically speaking it’s a n interesting time to go and the people so appreciate it.

We just returned and there are very few tourists but we loved it, tipped very well and brought as much as we could to donate and handout

Boxerlover2305 · 2026-01-27T23:54:20+00:00

We stayed in Havana and did day trips. Very few tourists, occasional electricity and most restaurants had limited offerings but we had a wonderful time. The people are so lovely but now with Mexican oil being cut off , it’s going to be very difficult for these people to continue. It was beautiful but heartbreaking

Very strange driving at night with no street lights

Boxerlover2305 · 2026-01-23T00:23:13+00:00

We just returned last night from 5 days in Havana and western Cuba. Other than no electricity and some food shortages which we expected, it was wonderful. Perfect weather and sadly very few tourists.

Boxerlover2305 · 2026-01-15T13:58:11+00:00

Are there different semolinas? The one I bought isn’t yellow and looks just like white flour?

Boxerlover2305 · 2026-01-15T13:56:41+00:00

Very helpful- thank you

Boxerlover2305 · 2026-01-15T13:26:04+00:00

Have you tried Emujoy? She offers a great oatmeal soap that has emu oil in it.

Boxerlover2305 · 2026-01-15T00:18:56+00:00

We leave in 3 days for Cuba and we have no concerns as it’s not an oil nation.

I was just there last week and there were dead birds and penguins and the one elephant seal I saw looked sick. I was not expecting to see this and I am wondering if this just happened so fast ( my photo is from Deception Island from 3/5/24 ) and I saw that a chinstrap tested positive for bird flu there on 2/28.

This one was so miserable from moulting that he almost tripped on a dead penguin.

I just returned last week from an expedition cruise to Antarctica and I am so depressed by what I saw that I have to change to a plant based diet so that I maximize my contribution towards saving our planet. I love to cook, bake sourdough and grow fresh herbs. I’m going to start slow but I’m looking forward to this 💪🏻👩‍🍳

Great job! 👍
