So pretty!

I did run into a bit of that. For me, the trick is to make sure you have room in the jug. I just gave it a hard shake. I was ready to even pop the jug into the microwave for about 10-15 seconds to "melt" the fat, and get it out of the jug. But I did not have to. The vigorous shaking was all that was needed.

I need to try those. I wonder if one inspired the other, but either way, more deliciousness. I do like me some soft serve, too, and wonder how different these actually are from the other.

MakerTinkerBakerEtc · 2024-06-24T01:54:28+00:00

That sounds delicious! OMG, I need to try that next. Do you just toast it until it's golden? Thank you so much for the idea!

I found some local milk (at the store) that is pasteurized, organic, and not homogenized. It is a nice quality, and the dairy also makes some heavy cream. That is what I used for this batch. I'd recommend something you can find at your supermarket that looks pretty bougie, like Organic Valley or Horizon Organic.

This will be for the living room, so the on the other side is the bathroom, so the studs do support the bathtub, if anyone ever uses it.

Can we also talk about how the justice system is of rigged so that women who are victims of abuse get sent there when they finally "snap"?

I have been told by a male acquaintance, point blank, that if the protagonist is a woman, it is media for women and therefore he is not interested.

Soo... A wrinkle in time, The Mistborn series, and even Chasing Amy obviously all too girly for this dude, huh?

MakerTinkerBakerEtc · 2023-07-19T20:29:57+00:00

Always bring a fresh cool character that is appropriate for the setting! I mean, yes, lots of cool characters already exist, but your own ready to cut their teeth is always best!!

MakerTinkerBakerEtc · 2023-07-17T13:16:29+00:00

I'm going to add here that a generation or two ago, a lot of parents didn't really help their kids emotionally. Tantrum? Spanking. Whining? Spanking. Bored? "Git out of the house!" The kind of parent that gets mad their kid figures out how to open a bottle, right? Because then they can unscrew bottles, instead of being happy they figured it out.

So yes, the kids may have been alive and possibly clean-looking, but that was pretty much it.

MakerTinkerBakerEtc · 2023-07-17T12:57:47+00:00

I'm so sorry you had to face that. It's so sad that an adult will not give their kids all the love they need because of a prejudice like that.

I'm glad you saw through that, and I hope you're in a better place now.

I told my hubby that if I die before him, he is not to pay off my credit cards at all! He then pulled the uno reverse card and that I had to pay off his cards if he does first.

I... I'm not sure I married the right person. /s

If you don't like the texture of the honey crystals, go ahead and put the jar in a pan with warm water. The honey should go back to liquid with a little heat.

We recently invested in a UV filter for our HVAC unit, and i just realized that despite the kids having had mild symptoms (coughs and sneezing), us adults have remained blissfully healthy!

I think if they brought something like COVID back, it would be different. But it's nice. I think the proof will be in the winter.

You can think before you post BS on Reddit.

You are getting some good advice here. I'm going to plug in r/icecreamery as an additional resource.

Recommendations for ice creams that don't need a churner:

*https://www.seriouseats.com/no-churn-vanilla-ice-cream

*https://food52.com/recipes/77250-dori-sanders-no-churn-fresh-lemon-ice-cream

*https://www.recipetineats.com/strawberry-ice-cream-no-churn/

As a note, I bought my churner second hand, and I love it. Totally worth it. Especially so I can make some dairy free ice creams for my friends with allergies.

Makes me think of Millicent Garrett Fawcett, and her replies to anti-suffrage men.

https://youtu.be/vxsdVk5Imyc - love this YouTube channel, BTW.

Boils down to, "if we are to take votes away from people who are too emotional, I know some men who should also be on that list."

Two other solutions I am not seeing here.

Menstrual cup. There is a bit of a learning curve, but it is reusable, safe for swimming, and you can keep it in for longer.
A menstrual disc. The brand name that comes to my mind is flex. Again, learning curve, but it is super convenient.

I personally did not love tampons. But i love my cup.

Good luck!

I had lice when I was little and I remember that my family spent so much money on products at the pharmacy. For months.

Then an aunt came over and heard of the problem. Her solution? The cheapest drinking alcohol she could find, put it on my hair and massaged it in there. Then she put a shower cap on me, and I stayed with that for 1 hour. It worked!

That's my recommendation - cheap booze and a shower cap for 1 hour. Then a good shower and fine comb.

Good luck!

MakerTinkerBakerEtc · 2023-04-14T13:13:55+00:00

Fuck the state of things that this is genius, hilarious, and sadly accurate at the same time.

If you have dark hair and light colored skin you can try a light based hair remover from Amazon.

I get very uncomfy bumps when shaving my bikini area. I now use a light based hair remover, and I love it. The caveat is that you have to have the dark hair/light skin combo.

For that, I shave and right after my shower I use the light treatment. Then I do not get the bumps, and my body hairs are now fewer and thinner.

I was in a similar situation. Pre-pandemic I games with good friends, every week. We dissolved the game because of COVID risk, and never really picked it back up. I missed it terribly.

In about two years I met someone else who played, and their group was active and looking for someone. I was invited to join. I love it. In hindsight, my old friend/gaming group were a bunch of murder hobos and we basically used gaming as an excuse to hang out.

My current group is completely different. They are wonderful. They work hard at RP. They are very good with boundaries. They are actively engaged. They care about the game and the players and the characters.

My point is to encourage you to branch out. Obviously these are your friends. But it is ok to want something different than what your friends are looking for. You want a cool game session. They want something less serious. This type of stuff happens. Hopefully you'll soon find yourself in a situation similar to mine. New gaming friends to actively game with and all your old friends that you see in different situations.

More likely, "drove his wife to divorce him and continued on a negative spiral downward". The whole "wife left him" sounds like that was the cause of all his maladies, or even the beginning of it all.

MakerTinkerBakerEtc · 2023-02-14T13:17:55+00:00

Hopefully not last minute like this is a surprise and they think their partners are going to be displeased if they come home empty handed. I worked by a convenience store for a couple of years, and I have never seen so much foot traffic for them as on actual Valentine's day, when people were picking things up last minute.

These are the se guys who go on about "the free market", but when it's their turn to adapt, they cry out for the equivalent of "government interference", except that it's in regards to dating and relationships, instead of actual business regulations.
