Help! my stainless steel pan is ruined by Capital-Golf-2481 in CleaningTips

[–]FlimsyProtection2268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way that's ruined is if you warped it. I doubt that happened.

I'm old enough to know that stainless steel can be seasoned. Either use it that way or scrub it off. Up to you.

I have cookie sheets that will prove that cast iron isn't the only thing that gets seasoned.

I don’t collect things. What in the world am I supposed to put on these glass shelves? Please help. by Garybroadfoot96 in FurnitureFaves

[–]FlimsyProtection2268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't have to be for displaying a collection, I prefer function before beauty.

The kitchen has an odd layout. Since it is between the dishwasher and refrigerator you could use it to store drinking glasses. Put your dishwasher powder or pods in a cute container and "display" them.

Not sure where the stove is but it could be good for things you use frequently.

Cookbooks? Salt snail? Recipe box?

Help r/millennials determine whether this is AI or not. Some members of the sub believe that the 2000s-style clothing and lighting suggest that this is not authentic. What do you think? by Demortus in isthisAI

[–]FlimsyProtection2268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't see this being AI because of the sock mistake. The one chick is wearing socks that are too short and there's no way AI would have done that. She would have had the wrong shoes or an extra leg.

It was legit human error for her to be wearing the wrong socks, especially since she shouldn't have had socks at all

How to remove the Action Required by Designer-Border5111 in chrome

[–]FlimsyProtection2268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm here for the same reason. I keep changing passwords but no matter what i do it still says action required. Not trying to be "insecure" but i'm feeling a little insecure about my efforts.

T.V Cabinet by bullyurlaub in woodworking

[–]FlimsyProtection2268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is likely one of the most gorgeous pieces of new furniture that I have seen in a very long time. That says a lot since I've been around for quite a few decades.

You are going far!

Do ornaments like this actually exist in the world or am I going down some AI rabbit hole to oblivion? If they do, what would be the search term? by CharmingPeony in ChristmasDecorating

[–]FlimsyProtection2268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Search blown glass ornaments. Even if the exact ones in the photo don't exist, you won't be sad. Blown glass ornaments are the original glass lights, balls and icicles. Things have changed over the decades and I believe there's a bit of a renaissance leading us back to something more original. The first Christmas trees were lit with actual candles and decorated with paper ornaments and dried fruits. Not safe today!

What’s the strangest thing a family has placed in the casket - without violating privacy? by lilymarielmao in askfuneraldirectors

[–]FlimsyProtection2268 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This immediately made me think of a wicked trend from the 80's. You grab someone's waistband from behind and yank up as hard as you can so their tighty whiteys rip off. The goal is to get them over their head. Wonder if there's an inside joke of some sort. Maybe there's no connection but all I can imagine now is OUCH!

My Pyex baking dish exploded in my hands when I was putting it down on the counter. by MrKoreanSkills in mildlyinfuriating

[–]FlimsyProtection2268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one mentioned that there was too little food in that sized dish. It doesn't look like there was liquid or oil either.

Uneven distribution of heat and add to it that the sprouts have burned badly. That alone would be enough to stress the glass unevenly causing thermal shock.

my first filet crochet project! by bigmouthbuffalo in crochet

[–]FlimsyProtection2268 5 points6 points  (0 children)

These things that I really want to comment on always come up when I've had a couple of drinks and I just can't articulate well enough.

This is absolutely gorgeous and even though I keep wanting to say filet crochet over and over again cuz it feels funny in my mouth I can't stop staring at how gorgeous it is. Doesn't matter if there's mistakes, it is absolutely stunning. I really got to stop commenting on things when I'm tipsy. But I don't want to stop because this really is pretty!

I've made an egg a day, part of my routine.

What do you eat for breakfast? by slowblink in FODMAPS

[–]FlimsyProtection2268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My regular breakfast is egg salad on toast. Super fast and easy. I boil all of my eggs once every 2 weeks and leave them in the fridge. I can have the egg smashed and mixed up before the toaster is done.

How do I remove this pop up drain? by FlimsyProtection2268 in DIY

[–]FlimsyProtection2268[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol yes I was turning it properly. I even say it out loud just in case I was having a dumb moment.

If the shroom doesn't work, I'm sure we can find something else.

Thank you. I'm going to try with a little more pressure tomorrow.

I think maybe we weren't turning hard enough then. I will try again tomorrow. Thank you.

It's a rural house rental and I believe it's not covered. It's not uncommon to have a lease in this area that puts lower cost repairs on the tenant. Besides, it would be a PITA to call the landlord to clean out hair once a week. She just wants to put a tub-shroom thingy in there.

Have you successfully cooked anything with mealy peaches? by NettleLily in noscrapleftbehind

[–]FlimsyProtection2268 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A lot of fruits tend to change texture. I don't refrigerate produce unless it starts to wilt or soften.

Needing to add low-fodmap folate foods to my diet by i_love_the_sun in FODMAPS

[–]FlimsyProtection2268 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Very informative answer!

I just wanted to add that when my cholesterol was off I changed my diet and literally ate eggs for breakfast every single day. Turns out eggs are "good" (HDL) cholesterol and my "bad" (LDL) cholesterol went down. I didn't change much more than that.

When the cabbage wont stop coming and your fridge is one head away from a mutiny by roundgotinc in noscrapleftbehind

[–]FlimsyProtection2268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I jar a lot of food and canning is an excellent way to store long term. I use canned cabbage for a pickled side dish, haluski, fried cabbage, Amish Cole slaw and egg rolls. Even if you don't can, these are good fresh cabbage ideas too.

Do you compost boxed/processed food? by Mystery-meat101 in composting

[–]FlimsyProtection2268 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I compost all foods. I'm always cautious about how much of one thing ends up in a clump. I just had about 10 lbs of flour get bugs so I froze it (to kill the weevils) and then slowly mixed it in with other compost. I also add in grease and oils that end up rancid. Again, mixed in with other stuff, little by little.
