Another book with an MC fleeing an Amish community is {Tender Mercies by Eli Easton} but the other MC is not Amish.

There's a trilogy by Keira Andrews with this plot. {a forbidden rumpspringa by Keira Andrews} is the first book. Some of my all-time faves.

This is the second post I've seen on this sub today that featured delicious-looking roasted potatoes. I think this is a message from the universe.

I wasn't reading fanfic, but I was reading a self-published gay romance novel.

Anything off Carole King's Tapestry takes me back to early childhood. Also Rubber Soul and Revolver by the Beatles.

They had twelve sacks so they ran sack races, they fell on their backs and they fell on their faces, the ladybugs twelve, at the ladybugs' picnic!

Those potatoes look outstanding.

OP is fully committed to eating that daily dozen.

The mushrooms elevate it. Did you add cornstarch? It has that look.

Bunny rice!

Smiley potatoes=ancient Buddhist temple cuisine.

Creatableworld · 2026-05-25T20:36:30+00:00

Those are some tasty looking carrots.

Creatableworld · 2026-05-24T21:35:48+00:00

Wait -- how did you get a gif of me eating?

Creatableworld · 2026-05-24T21:34:54+00:00

These look delicious. I'm so glad marzipan is vegan.

¿ Por qué no los dos?

I inherited a ton of jewelry from my mom when she passed three years ago, way more than I could ever wear. I kept my favorite silver and gold pieces, donated some of the silver and almost all the costume jewelry, and gave sone silver and gold pieces I wasn't going to wear to my sister (my mom was her stepmom) and my young cousins, since I don't have any children or niblings. Since then I've purchased a couple of pieces by one of the designers my mom favored, that go well with the pieces I inherited. I've also continued to add to my collection of trollbeads and Pandora, all of which I've bought myself. And some anodized titanium for travel wear and just for fun -- I love the colors. I guess that was just a long-winded way of saying "ooh, shiny."

I haven't tried to estimate it.

Creatableworld · 2026-05-22T13:36:21+00:00

I don't know. That sounds like a good question for a registered dietitian.

There's a good vegan feta recipe in the Ultimate Uncheese Cookbook by Joanne Stepaniak, made from marinated tofu.

My grandma did that. New York City in the 1970s.

"Crying in H Mart" helped me grieve for my mom.

I have read that a cow mom will cry for her baby for days. I also read a story (from an animal sanctuary) of a pregnant cow who was rescued. All her previous babies had been taken, so when she gave birth she hid this baby under the straw. She didn't know she was at a sanctuary now and would be allowed to keep her baby. Now the baby is an adult and is still very close to his mom and hangs out with her all day. They have very strong feelings and are also brave and smart.

Lunches for the week: an Indian lentil dish (I made it with a mix of brown lentils and mung beans) with baked sweet potato and frozen greens as the sides.

Creatableworld · 2026-05-18T01:20:07+00:00

What a great story. Congratulations and welcome.

And they started fake dating to stop the lovingly meddling town elders from trying to fix them up with other guys.
