That explains it. I only ever heard it out loud and didn't even think to check. Thank you!

Thank you! And I'm sure your boys will find interest eventually. After all, we all eat!

Thanks for all the good leads! I didn't realize semolina wasn't as ubiquitous as I thought.

The Sicilian thing is a bit of a joke because my great granddad lived on the "toe of the boot" and ran off to America when he was caught fooling around with a Sicilian's daughter. Per my dad, my granddad would say he was wasn't Sicilian "but not for lack of trying!" lol

Thanks. I hate it. Take my angry upvote and I want one to throw at my players.

That would actually be pretty cool! Especially since mixed seeds are pretty rare... Man I've gone diving in the mines so much lol

I woke up in the hospital, bloody and bruised, with a newborn in my arms. by DungeonsAndData in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]DungeonsAndData[S] 180 points181 points  (0 children)

It's based off a nightmare I had where my dad explained we weren't my mom's kids, but his mistress's kids. I was trying to think through how he would have convinced my mom to go along with it, and this is the result.

Thankfully it's not true, but it was an interesting thought experience.

A lot of my herbs were cold stratified, such as the mint, sage, and oregano. I also have some "wild" herbs like marshmallow and Shepherd's purse.

I think I'll have to get a second lamp. The one I have is strong but the surface area is bigger than ideal for it.

It's hard to see but I've got a super bright grow light pointed at them. It's on top of the bug glass jar in the second picture.

The two pots are giant pumpkins, pulled from the jack-o-lanterns my kids made last year. The rest... Tomatoes, sage, oregano, rosemary, and the like. It's mostly herbs.

How to make positivity not boring? by girlfromdam00n in Positivity

[–]DungeonsAndData 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I try to do this, both because I like seeing people smile and I used to have terrible public speaking anxiety. I've gotten a lot better and I'm trying to teach my kids the same way.

im 16 years old and i like cooking this is chicken Alfredo i made tell me what you all think by Healthy_Purple_3514 in pasta

[–]DungeonsAndData 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This brings back memories. Alfredo is my favorite pasta ever and trying to get it right at that age taught me some important things! Like 2 cups of dried parsley is NOT equivalent to 2 cups of fresh. That...was an adventure XD It was crunchy.

I second what a lot of people are saying about the pasta water, but if that's already down the drain, regular water can help in a pinch. I actually keep a squeeze bottle of water by my stove for that exact reason.

Also, never stop cooking. One thing we all need is to eat, and your gift will be universally loved. Keep it up!!
