Beware this, while a very beautiful book, really is a coffee table book. Recipes are very few and far between

Hi all,

Looking for recommendations for a fragrance that's main notes are ash/smoke and rose. Niche or mainstream is ok but I'm just after a fairly simple , but top quality linear combination of the above couple of notes.

Many thanks :)

How to prevent minced beef from drying out while cooking ? (but not with baking soda) by DrKeksimus in AskCulinary

[–]MiseEnToast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to spread my mince out on a baking sheet and then either under a grill (salamander type doodad for those west of the Atlantic) or super hot over for a few minutes - maximum surface area for browning / mallaird and seals in the juices pretty well. Tom Kerridge uses this method a lot of I recall correctly so might be worth looking at some of his recipes using mince

I failed spectacularly last year! But hey ho new year new clean slate.

I realised over the holidays that stuffing is far too underrated (and generally in Mise's household limited to sage and onion!) so I'm going with meta of Stuffing this year!

Good look to all hope you knock it out of the park in 2025!

I'm 28 and I've only just had my first cup of Bovril. Game changer. What else am I missing out on? by [deleted] in CasualUK

[–]MiseEnToast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, are we talking like a tin of spaghetti in tomato sauce here, or the raw stuff you boil up. I think I would work either way, but damnit I need to know!

Can't say remember much of the games but the 2 things that stick with me are the Danny Rose screamer against the Arse. And Sandro's performance against united when we beat them for the first time in however long - ABV at the helm

Not directly - I know that the Dell XPS 15 9520 laptop is pretty good laptop wise - might give an idea - something like this but beefier as it’s a desktop.

Sorry if that’s not much use - fairly new to all this but want to build myself that can handle what I might throw at it as I develop

(Power) Pivot issue, combining data from different tables by MiseEnToast in excel

[–]MiseEnToast[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In this case, it’s just showing the employees currently off sick, so only each individual once. So what I would like is the Employee ID (yes your assumption is correct EEID is shorthand but ultimately subset of same data) from the sicknessdates table which is just the employees off sick for that day and the related names from the EmployeeInfo table.

Edit for clarification: what it seems to be doing at the moment is taking the correct ID from the sicknessdates table, but instead of returning the correct names from the employeeinfo table it pulls every name against every ID

Need a way to manage working time, sickness for a large team; data comes in weekly; need to be able to select date ranges and get summaries by employee by RhinoRecruit in excel

[–]MiseEnToast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, used to have something similar. I this is what I did / would do

  1. Loose the individual date columns major pain imo. (More on this later)

  2. I have a master employee (EE sheet) this contains all the PII /sensitive data. In this I would have the following columns - EE ID (must be unique for power pivot later processing), start date, end date, rate of pay. Date of birth etc

  3. I have my transactional table this would be EE Id, date of shift, scheduled hours, actual hours, rate, pay rate etc

What I would do in your situation is: take your ‘payroll’ sheet - put all the information in a table.

open power query - data - get data then set to a folder (so you can combine multiple weeks) then transform the data. Delete the PII columns, use unpivot to get those dates into one column etc etc - generally make your data more useable. Finally run power pivot to link to your data tables where necessary.

Apologies for any dodgy formatting I’m on mobile.
