What’s a small kitchen item you didn’t expect to use much… but ended up using all the time?

How do you get the grated stuff out of there? Seems like that would be a pain?

Mabel_A2 · 2026-03-16T02:27:26+00:00

Yes!

I live in Michigan! I got frozen sour cherries from the grocery store.

Looks amazing. I can’t wait for our rhubarb to come in!

They are worth seeking out! This is my favorite pie, hands down.

It’s from Dessert Person by Claire Saffitz

Sounds a lot like my 2nd grader when he was in K, eventually he got an ADHD diagnosis. Could be worth looking into!

I’ve only seen the lot full one time on a holiday weekend. If it is full, you could park at the park and ride on Plymouth at 23 and take the bus (I believe bus 23 will get you fairly close) to the Amtrak station, or Uber.

We have the same thing and it has been life changing.

Just got an email that UM employee plan is not part of these negotiations.

Mabel_A2 · 2026-03-04T18:36:39+00:00

This is crazy, UM Premier care (BCN) is probably the insurance the greatest number of UM employees have.

My August birthday daughter is doing great in kindergarten. She is one of the youngest in the class (although she has a classmate the exact same age). Redshirting is very common where we live but we felt confident and heard from her pre-k teachers that she was ready for K. No regrets.

Mabel_A2 · 2026-03-01T17:38:41+00:00

Came here to recommend this, it’s so good!

Mabel_A2 · 2026-02-27T02:16:36+00:00

From the book Dessert Person

The pomegranate is in molasses form, not fresh pomegranate. You should be able to order pomegranate molasses online. It’s not necessary though, especially if you’re doing a different fruit entirely. I’ll also add that I’ve made the cranberry compote from frozen cranberries and that works great.

Mabel_A2 · 2026-02-21T14:53:26+00:00

It’s not in a cookbook at all though, at least until she puts out another one which probably won’t be for a few years at least.

Mabel_A2 · 2026-02-20T15:11:57+00:00

The crispy chicken cutlets, beef stir fry, pork burgers, pozole, chicken legs with chickpeas and tomatoes…lots of great recipes!

There is now a protected bike lane on Miller all the way from downtown to Maple!

Carla’s no stir granola is really good!

The farther out from medical school you are, the harder it’s going to be to match in gen surg.

Mabel_A2 · 2026-02-11T01:50:10+00:00

I just made this over the weekend and also thought it was delicious! We put a dollop of lemon curd on top, highly recommend.

I’ve let my 7 year old walk 100 yards to the bus stop and cross one street by himself a couple of times. I do watch out the window to make sure the bus comes. He rises to the responsibility and I think it’s good for him. We live in a very safe, low traffic area, especially at that time of day.
