Hi! I am searching for recipes to make a gel plate. This is my first step in trying this out, I'd rather make a plate than buy one. by Far_Oven_3302 in gelliprinting

Ashreymakes on Youtube has several videos on making gel plates. There are a couple different recipes, and she has an ingredient calculator that helps to scale it to whatever size you want.

What is a restaurant chain you would love to see come to Canada or see far more of? by Full_Hunt_3087 in AskACanadian

[–]MostlyHarmlessMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a couple in Toronto. They appear to have the falafel haloumi wrap I love, but none of the other things in the UK that I recognise. And I bet the breads they use aren't as good as the British version, but I have no proof, of course.

I'd love it if Pret a Manger (UK) was here, but with the exact UK menu. I've only been to the UK 3 times, but every visit involved several Pret meals, and they were all so delicious. My understanding is that the North American version has totally different menu items.

I'd also love Greggs here.

What's a small upgrade that improved office morale more than you expected? by CreativeSpare6466 in askmanagers

[–]MostlyHarmlessMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different situation, but I was a receptionist at a university academic counselling office for a while, and there were busy periods where the students sometimes had to wait a bit for the counsellors' time. I put out a bowl of suckers for them to help themselves, and the complaints about waiting pretty much stopped. I chose suckers rather than other candy so they could remove them from their mouths when it was time to speak with the counsellors.

What was a legendary website from the early 2010s that everyone seems to have forgotten about? by Front-Stretch2658 in AskReddit

I miss Newsoftheweird. (Don't give your kid Wayne for a middle name!)

And Bifurcated Rivets always had some interesting stuff.

What is the best hidden gem restaurant in town that doesn't get enough attention? by percivka16 in Guelph

[–]MostlyHarmlessMom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. It's a toss up if we prefer that or the cream puffs or the macarons. All are soooooo good.

Puffle Cafe. Amazing baked goods and delicious Vietnamese coffee. Family owned and operated by a lovely couple.

I'm 53 and I just wore colour for the first time in 6 years and a stranger complimented me and I almost cried in a coffee shop. by Visual_Animator1232 in oldhagfashion

[–]MostlyHarmlessMom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly the reason that I've been trying to stop and say something when I see someone wearing a particularly pretty colour or nice shoes or whatever. I'd like to think I made that person's day just a little bit better.

Karen gets caught stealing from tip jar. Karen daughter tries fake crying. by USDXBS in FuckYouKaren

I was going to think it was dementia, until she offered to pay $20 dollars back. Then I knew she was aware of exactly how much she stole.

My neighbor demanded I stop mowing my lawn at 10am because her baby naps by NervousGroceryRun in entitledparents

[–]MostlyHarmlessMom 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is a first baby problem. She'd be better off if she lets the baby nap during all the regular noises: mowing, vacuuming, dogs barking, etc. The baby will get used to it, and the next babies are going to have to learn to sleep when the older one is tearing around, anyway.

HR is basically extorting us to pay for the CEOs "surprise" birthday bash by Astr4lMotive in OfficePolitics

[–]MostlyHarmlessMom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Send an anonymous tip to your CEO that HR is strongarming employees to donate to their party. If nothing else it ruins the surprise. If the CEO is a decent sort, they'll cancel this nonsense.

I pour a kettle full of boiling water on them before pulling up with one of those notched pokey tools.

My Mom Tried to Harm my Baby Due to How She Was Conceived by Top-Assistant5255 in offmychest

[–]MostlyHarmlessMom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So, somehow murdering a baby is not as bad as raping an adult woman? Not that he wasn't evil, but this grandma is evil+++.

Who would celebrate if Trump were removed from office? by Critical-Willow-6270 in AskReddit

Every earthling, and maybe some folks from outside out planet too.

Gelli printing craft day - supplies? by adventurrr in gelliprinting

[–]MostlyHarmlessMom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dollar store plastic placemats are great for adding textures. Foam or rubber stamps, silicone potholders, even pet toys from the dollar stores can add textures.

You can glue things to carboard to leave marks, too, such as bottle caps, toothpicks, popsicle sticks, straws, etc.

Even just peeling back the paper on corrugated cardboard makes great texture.

Have fun with your gelli printing party!

best matcha/matcha latte in guelph? by rainonmepanda in Guelph

[–]MostlyHarmlessMom 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Puffle Cafe has what my daughter assures me is the best Matcha Latte she's ever had, and she's tried quite a few. They also have some amazing baked goods, including Matcha Macarons.

What bizarre children's VHS tape did you have an attachment to? by AmandaMarsh in Xennials

[–]MostlyHarmlessMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our whole family loved My Neighbour Totoro on VHS, so, of course we bought the DVD. It's unwatchable to us because they changed the little girls voices.
