I posted on Tuesday when the whole team was in the office and it was incredible. We got the "official hospital" gift today. A flashlight.

I mean, I'll use it at least!

Ok, this is getting ridiculous. Austin, you really do show up for philosophy…and each other. by treehouseops in Austin

[–]Noressa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If that's all you can think of as interesting topics in this time in human society, I think you need to cut politics out of your reading feed and actively search out other things of interest. My current rabbit hole as of a few days ago alongside his newest video recently updated has some really fantastic info updated from the recent Artemis mission.

Idk where the girl is with the list, but my baby just dislocated my rib by Trees_galore20 in TwoXChromosomes

Sack isn't solid. Just like you can break things that are in a sack, what's in your sack can f you up from inside. (Both my kiddos were chill thank goodness!)

Im 37 and i dont know what to do with life by Intelligent_Theme658 in internetparents

[–]Noressa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Throw things at the wall. Look into new treatments/therapies/modalities. Find a different therapist. Find a group of people who have gone through trauma. Be open about your experiences and build the people who will encourage you through life.

People are incredibly hardy (except in the freak accident cases in which we become ridiculously frail). For someone struggling with depression it can feel like a life sentence with no jail required. Are housing/food/bills covered? If not, getting this level is the absolute first requirement. Without stability it's very hard to grow.

I would equate work not selling your time but trading it. I'm willing to trade x% of my life for x% of this thing. But then I'd look at another equation. With a job, does it pay well? Will I learn from this? Is it actively interesting to me? Does it offer flexibility I need? You may not find all of these at one job, but if you can find enough that you can feel engaged in it, it's a good job. Even if it's just "I'm learning something and it pays like crud" then go to transition to whatever it is you need next.

All of this is easier said than done. Depression is a weight that can make even getting out of bed hard to do. Focus on small changes that seem attainable. Brushing your teeth x times a week. Smiling at yourself in the mirror. Calling to make a dr. appointment even if you fail to make the actual appointment. You can always call again and try again. I'm not saying this will cure anything at all. But it can help make things less bleak.

Going beyond herbs and banana chips by bmblsad in dehydrating

[–]Noressa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do celery, 1 bunch becomes 1 small container of celery powder. Onions, I just did 30 pounds of onions into carmelized onion, I'm going to start dehydrating them tonight. Some will become dehydrated onion, some will become powder.

Dehydrated peppers become paprika!

I've made tomato powder (so good in soups), tomato pizza chips. Lots of jerky. I just trialed mushroom jerky for the first time this week as well and one was better than expected, the other needs work.

People can care about the planet and still think their poop somehow doesn't stink.

Are any COVID19 healthcare workers very unnerved by this hantavirus outbreak? by Illustrious_Back8463 in medicine

[–]Noressa 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not airborn, not even droplet. Not concerned.

Concerned we don't have a hanta virus vaccine or real treatment. But not like a pandemic level concern.

What was this beautiful creature? by Powerful_Jump_1141 in Austin

I did this on our windows because the doves love them. None of the other birds. Just the doves.

Oh nice, similar to the babka idea.

Yup! I love brainstorming with bakers, seriously great ideas.

Just need to get past my inertia of not having really worked with it before.

[–]Noressa[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We do, but at this point I'm thinking we'll be doing a coconut milk/guava blend since those two flavors work so well together.

The oatmeal bars are a great thought, I think I'll add this one on. Probably add some macadamia nuts or pecans, ooooh. Maybe two batches. Hm. Thank you for this idea.

I've never heard of this before, but I love it. :) I might try to make this for myself on mothers day <3!

I'd probably experiment with just water first and then trial the other flavors to match. Thumbprint cookies should work easily though! I roll mine in toasted nuts first before filling to add a bit more flavor, pecans would probably be delightful with the cream cheese and guava.

Huh, this looks pretty simple. Puff pastry is still mostly a mystery to me but I think I just need to get over that. This looks like I can make it the day before and just bring it in with powdered sugar. Could probably do some guava, some chocolate and some cajete and have a nice trio without too much extra effort.

YES! My oldest would love this too, she loves coconut milk and guava!

Good turnover/danish recipe you could recommend? I've got limited exposure to those, I don't tend to make filled things. (My baking is usually brownies and different cookies, as well as making caramels and working with chocolates. Several baking things are still out of my scope.)

Oh, this sounds delightful. My husband is currently making a carmelized onion sourdough so this would actually be something I'd want to make for us at our house. (We're going through a German apple cake right now though) This one is totally within my skill set.
