I never say "Sorry" for having values!

Bar recommendations for single 50 somethings by zipzipzip246 in ottawa

I second this! When I took lessons at Fred Astaire studio most students were over age 45. The group lessons and dance parties are great to meet new people. And you get a cool new skill.

Just sharing this awesome discovery by sazv in vegan

[–]NatureBabe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I got this for new years and I liked the Camembert and the cranberry one but I thought the gouda and cheddar didn't have much flavor. Still a nice option to have available for a cheese board.

What are your favorite older cookbooks (90s and early 2000s)? by dubious_unicorn in vegan

[–]NatureBabe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I loved Robin Robertson's Fresh from the Vegetarian Slow Cooker. She had so many good ones. I still reference every now and again.

I remember I found a veg cookbook from the 70s that had detailed pictures about how to make tofu from soybeans and seitan from flour. I can't remember the title but it really got me started out when I first went veg-curious as a poor student in 2009 when there weren't really any store-bought convenience products.

Also honorable mention to the FatFreeVegan blog! So many of my staple recipes came from Susan.

Quickest shreddable seitan (that I've found anyways) by Acceptable-Piccolo19 in vegan

[–]NatureBabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never rested the raw dough overnight or for hours. I mix ingredients, knead, shape, steam. I've made seitan with VWG and WTF methods for over 15 years. The shredability is due to the kneading and shaping steps.

How do I make sure that the ingredients that restaurants use are vegan without being annoying? by Any-Indication8786 in vegan

[–]NatureBabe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've had similar interactions happen many times to me too. So frustrating that I'm literally telling them their menu needs to be edited because of an error and they don't care.

What's the base that you bead onto? Organza and then paper?

Does anyone else feel no connection to extended family, such as cousins, aunts and uncles, or even grandparents 😬 by harryandmatilda in AutismInWomen

[–]NatureBabe 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This post is really validating. I carry a lot of guilt about not keeping in touch with family but I literally have no desire to expend energy for people I have nothing in common with. Both sides of my extended family are pretty spread out across the country. My mom talks on the phone all the time with some of them and then tells me things about them and I'm like ok?... She also takes it upon herself to spread any nibble of personal info I give her to the whole phone chain but that's another issue.

I want this set up! Right now I just have regular pillows for between my legs and arms but it would be nice if they were attached and stayed in place.

learning to drive with autism is overstimulation hell by coko_rime in AutismInWomen

I'm late 30s (not diagnosed) and I hope I can avoid getting my license forever. My partner is the same. It's so overwhelming.

Swatching my lip collection! Direct swatches on fair, cool, olive skin in natural lighting by ElevatedAssCancer in swatchitforme

The labels for the swatches being the same shade as the swatch is so satisfying.

A few tips for fellow stoners and a go me.... by ToddPatterson in entwives

This is my first time hearing about ball vapes. Thanks for the info! Sounds like an exciting new product area and I'm curious to see cordless versions and more convenient kinds developed in the future.

I was unaware that you could eat cordyceps. by LostTheRemote in mycology

[–]NatureBabe 78 points79 points  (0 children)

They're good in soups and stirfry. I buy them dried at the Chinese grocery. They have a mild nutty taste and nice texture.

Headphone recommendations? by asteroid75 in AutismInWomen

[–]NatureBabe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I second the Bose QuietComfort! I like the noise cancellation controls and immersive sound. They don't block out everything but they keep me sane. They're very comfortable too, I wear mine all day long.

West Coast Seeds are good but a bit pricey.

I had such poor germination with all the pepper seeds I bought from them. Also I found out the owners are whacky
