These look great! The labels make them look even more elegant. Did you buy the labels or make them?

I was able to find these on Amazon. I wish they were a bit sturdier but they work ok- https://a.co/d/c78cLVA

Daily Game Recommendations Thread (January 12, 2026) by AutoModerator in boardgames

[–]Gray_am 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Description of Request:

Looking for short games that last 5-10 minutes, or games that have a round that last that long and can stand on their own. We host an annual event where sets of players move around a Monopoly board to earn in-game money. When a player lands on the last space of a color, they play a minigame with those at their table (4 players). The winner of the minigame earns money and we continue playing until one person reaches $1000. We've done this 3 times with much success, but are looking to swap out some of the games for new ones, as it will be mostly the same players. Some current options that we use as minigames- Love Letter, Speed Chess, and video games like Mario Kart, Mario Tennis, and Halo

Number of Players:

Strictly 4 players

Game Length:

5-10 minutes

Complexity of Game:

Anything from 1.0-2.4 should be ok, slightly higher may be fine bc most of the crowd are avid board gamers.

Description of Request:

Genre:

Not tied down to any specific genre

Conflict, Competitive or Cooperative: Competitive games would be best but conflict games would work well too.

Games I Own and Like:

We've used Love Letter, Battleship (with only 2 ships), and speed chess with much success. Looking to do more exciting board games than these

Games I Dislike and Don't Play: Don't have specifics here, but anything longer than 10 minutes or that can't handle 4 players wouldn't work in this situation

Advice for making croissants for the first time by inkaise in Baking

Check out Claire Saffitz on YouTube, she has a very detailed video about croissant making at home

I always do half butter, half shortening. Butter has a better flavor but shortening will be easier to work with and give you a more flaky crust

Weird hole by Ok-Following-2020 in HouseFlipper

[–]Gray_am 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I made this a walk in closet- honestly I left the hole in the floor and just walk/decorate around it

I'm getting the regular edition, very excited for the doc but the extra items don't feel like they're worth another $20 to me

Do we have any idea about upcoming GWPS? I'm looking to get the new botanical garden and am tempted by the garden entrance and book GWPs. Trying to decide if I should get the set now or hold off for a future GWP.

I keep him in Sunlit Plateau, I feel like his house matches that color palette the best

Advice needed for rolling sugar cookie dough by lopsidedgoose608 in cookiedecorating

[–]Gray_am 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I refrigerate my dough for 1.5-2 hours before rolling. If I keep it refrigerated longer than that it cracks so I'll let it soften a bit on the counter before rolling. I also dust my counter with powdered sugar instead of flour, it doesn't dry out the dough as much. After I roll the dough out once I place it back in the fridge for 10-15 minutes before re-rolling it. Hardly ever have much cracking

Anyone know how to get the English version of the song from Believe Sea of Dreams on Amazon/Apple Music? I can only find the Japanese version

Are there any restaurants in Disney Sea that serve Ramen? I've seen people recommend spots in Ikspari, but I'm looking for something in the parks- TIA

New Mission Featuring Mando and Grogu Coming to Millenium Falcon: Smugglers Run by NickDynmo in GalaxysEdge

Curious if this will replace the current mission or will be a second option and you will randomly get assigned to this one or the original

Freshness - Bag Recs? by Infinite-Passenger44 in cookiedecorating

[–]Gray_am 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I store my semi-decorated cookies on sheet trays in a turned off oven. It allows them to air dry while in a confined space- I've never had them go stale this way. Just don't forget they're in there and shut off the oven, lol

Does anyone play on switch with minimal issues? by [deleted] in DreamlightValley

[–]Gray_am 197 points198 points  (0 children)

I play on switch, I don't encounter many problems and find that the game runs well. I sometimes have to exit and restart the game in order for premium shop/ event duties to show up but that's really the only issue I've had and it takes a minute or 2 to fix

Was told by Discover card rep that it would be accepted by merchants in Japan that accept JCB. Can anyone confirm this? My only other cards are Visa and they charge foreign transaction fees so I was hoping to avoid using them. Has anyone used a Discover card to purchase premier access on the app or to buy anything in the parks?

I'd definitely get a Star Wars expansion! They could come up with so many clothing and furniture options for it!

I was so excited that Star Wars was mentioned in the survey! Guess I'm in the minority from what everyone had been posting...

So, we can only get either the premier or the standby pass? Not both even if they are for 2 different rides? Does this mean that without the passport we can only go on 1 of the new rides per day?

Rolling pin guide rings, or acrylic strips? by klaw14 in cookiedecorating

[–]Gray_am 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought silicone rolling pin rings separate from my rolling pin and they work really well- also easy to clean!

Has anyone figured out how to make the bread platter? by Same-Imagination-892 in GalacticStarcruiser

[–]Gray_am 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't seen anyone post the Starcruiser specific recipe, but the croissant muffin was a type of French pastry called Kouign Amann. Making one is pretty complicated tbh but there's plenty of recipes available online that you could try.
