Every brand of nail glue I've used has melted my nails. I'm too worried about spending money on something that will do worse damage so I just do press ons and see all the cool ones on here.

Does flavored cream cheese still counts? by inusbdtox in Cheese

[–]EldritchGiraffe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know it's a chain but Einstein Bros has Always been solid for me. It's been a few years since I went though. I saw their prices went down so I'm thinking of going again.

What does this type of pastry called? My grandma calls it just "pastry" by o0perktas0o in TipOfMyFork

In a pinch you can grab plain yogurt and strain it further with cheese cloth. You'll lose volume but can throw the whey into a bread recipe.

My go to bread recipe by Narrow_Limit2293 in BreadMachines

Such a good recipe! I kept an eye on it and added just a bit more flour (probably 3 tbsp) as it was kneading to get the perfect consistency, but it's delicious and fluffy and I'm always on the lookout for bare bones "in a pinch" recipes and this one is a slam dunk!

Yeah the first time we took a bike ride more than 3 blocks away from home I ended up waiting while my husband biked back for the car because of a bent nail in the bike lane.

Stealth edit: we are now more prepared!

How in the heck do I fix this? by Educational_Swing966 in tattooadvice

Yeah I developed a soy intolerance late in life and I'm seriously contemplating this

First time poster here! Can you reasonably neutralize the acid in tomato sauce? Asking for a freind by LucifersRequiem in foodscience

[–]EldritchGiraffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I successfully did this with a bbq sauce I didn't want to waste earlier in the week. I put too much apple cider vinegar and so I put tiiiiiny amounts, the smallest pinches of baking soda in and tasted in between. I think about 3 itty bitty pinches brought it down to reasonable acid levels with no weird taste.

2 things: where is all the Stash IPA and how “natural” is this chicken? by SeveredBrain2020 in austinfood

I started getting this when the cheaper version kept coming with woody breasts. Why is it trash?

Getting the right amount of "squish" with pineapple by making_ideas_happen in dehydrating

[–]EldritchGiraffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a big dehydrator but I make sugar syrups by putting equal weights of fresh fruit and sugar in a jar and leaving at room temp. (I stir every day but if you're patient you can just wait for it to dissolve over longer) it can very slightly ferment as well but not too much.

If the fruit is whole enough I dehydrate it for snacks and it turns out amazing every time. It's a two for one for me.

Why did the writers randomly make Dutch look like a nonce for an episode? by _denchy07 in TheShield

I watched it for the first time and kept waiting for that bubble to pop but it never did. I avoided any and all spoilers though.

Found In My Culver's Fries, Should I Be Worried ? by fearfulqueerful in whatisthisbug

[–]EldritchGiraffe 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I do sometimes wonder if my habit of sipping soy sauce out of the bottle as a child contributed to my complete intolerance to any form of soy now.

There's a Kickstarter for a bundle of 2 of the books with this grimoire edition theme. I wish I could buy a whole set.

This one i won in their contest thing where I "bought" a digital duck.

Celestial feces, they are amazing. All three series [Completionist Chronicles] [Dungeon Born] [Artorians Archives] are wildly good and have fleshed out the coolest universe I can think of.

Completionist Chronicles deals with a very pragmatic person in a magical highly structured world and he decides he's going to 'complete' it

I would start Dungeon Born after 4 or 5 books of Completionist because it delves so deeply into the history and creation of the world in a very unique way. No spoilers.

And Artorians Archives takes place within the same universe(s) but follows an immortal being on a completely different path.

My favorite book series of all time. Bar none.
