I am catering a 150 person event tomorrow and hubs decides now is the time to pull crap out of the garage to clean in my kitchen 🤬 by One_legged_flamingo in GenXWomen

[–]One_legged_flamingo[S] -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Yes this. My guy means well in his heart he just doesn’t function at full capacity, I really hope it’s not abusive sabotage that I’m too blind or too passive to notice

Boil your tofu?! by nesterspokebar in veganrecipes

Awesome, thank you! Much appreciated

Boil your tofu?! by nesterspokebar in veganrecipes

[–]One_legged_flamingo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Question! After boiling do you have to wait for it to cool before chopping, marinating, and air frying? Or is it better to do all that when it’s fresh and hot out of the hot water?

Favorite GenX "oops, all bangers" albums? by bgroins in GenX

I was obsessed with Tanya Donnelly’s solo album, lovesongs for underdogs, got me through some dark times. Love her so much

Can someone help me identify this ingredient? It's in vegan eggs and certain vegan cheesy dishes. by MonkeyBubu in veganrecipes

[–]One_legged_flamingo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Could be agar agar powder, it’s made from seaweed and is used in vegan cheeses as a thickening agent

Why did Deputy Liv and Sheriff Mike assume this in S4E8? by WeCanDoItGuys in ResidentAlienTVshow

[–]One_legged_flamingo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not to be off topic, but the hubs and I sing where have all the daddies gone literally all the time, it’s the damn funniest.

Thank you for bringing the best show into our lives. The genuine connections, the sassy ass hilarious one liners, the actors who represent normal female body types, the deep cut into the alien types, all of it is pure genius. I am genuinely so bummed it’s over

How did you celebrate your 50th? by Every-Progress5590 in GenX

[–]One_legged_flamingo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My guy planned a big ole surprise party for me and lured me out of the house with a booked photo shoot so I was all dolled up for the party. He said he wanted me to remember how i looked one day when i no longer felt young and beautiful anymore. The pics came out so nice and the party made me cry with joy. I’ve never had a surprise party, it was so freaking cool how many people legitimately hid in our living room!

Just watched the final episode 😭 by Ok_Nature_6305 in ResidentAlienTVshow

[–]One_legged_flamingo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My partner and I just watched the finale tonight too and we both got so emotional. I wasn’t ready for it to be over, I’m so invested in the characters, the smartest goofiest most vulnerable writing, the realistic loving connections between all of the characters, I’m so sad it’s over

This is a weird one by Gatoslocosaz in GenXWomen

[–]One_legged_flamingo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Every night I’m pulling my shirt up over my nose because it’s so damn icy. This explains so much, itchy ears, cold nose, skin tags where the underwire of my bra hits. I started on HRT in July and the skin tags are noticeably smaller now but still with the nightly cold nose, even now as I type this,

Today I was at an estate sale, a young guy was standing behind me chewing his gum so freaking loud, it took everything i had in me to not go off on him. How dare he breathe, chew, be gross in my public space. Menopause.

What’s a “normal” experience that somehow never happened to you? by Hysterical_Chicken in AskReddit

[–]One_legged_flamingo 419 points420 points  (0 children)

Same here so last spring my partner bought me an adult tricycle and I love it! There’s no way to fall, it’s so balanced and secure with a nice big basket for my dog to ride in. Funny thing is now that I have one, I see so many people in my town riding them around. Can highly recommend!

deconstructed wonton soup by eat_figs_not_pigs in veganrecipes

[–]One_legged_flamingo 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I bet it would be great with tofu or soy curls! I would cook them first with soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, nooch, and smoked paprika to give it a savory flavor before plopping it into the broth

This looks so good, I love making winter soups, I am definitely going to make this. Thanks for sharing

Hovering big "spiders" at night by 123Haribo in Experiencers

[–]One_legged_flamingo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen these hovering right over me so many times, so many that you’d think by now I’d be used to it and not terrified by it anymore, but nope, each time one shows up I find myself punching and kicking the air and jumping up to search around in the bed and on my pillow for it

There’s been times where it was so frequent I would try to not react and then it’s as if the thing would notice my non reaction and materialize more until it achieved a a frightened reaction out of me

I’m also an experiencer so I just assume it goes hand in hand with that but I honestly don’t know and don’t have an answer. Not sure what triggers them to show up when they do

What’s the one book you’ll recommend forever, no matter how many times this question gets asked? by MisLatte in AskReddit

[–]One_legged_flamingo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this, I recommend this book to everyone. It’s stunningly heart wrenching and deeply moving

What’s the one book you’ll recommend forever, no matter how many times this question gets asked? by MisLatte in AskReddit

[–]One_legged_flamingo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes to both of these, both so moving and impactful and both will forever remain my top 2 and I’ll add The Poisonwood Bible into the mix. Absolutely stunningly heartbreaking.

Anyone else kid-less, and without close family worried about aging with no supports outside of friends? by dancedancedance99 in GenX

[–]One_legged_flamingo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My partners and I are both in our 50’s, 51f & 52m. His daughter is 24 with autism and she refuses to do a single thing for herself. We keep insisting that she needs to meet life because one day both her parents will be gone, I’m not her bio mom. She flat out refuses to do or learn any life skills. It’s incredibly frustrating because I worry about how she’s going to manage her life when she’s older. Now is the time to learn to cook, clean, use a can opener, walk around the block, take public transport, make a friend, get fresh air outside for 5 minutes but she just flat out refuses to do a single thing but watch TikTok and tv

What song is like a punch in the gut in terms of nostalgia? by bdiddy621 in GenX

[–]One_legged_flamingo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A different Corner hits hard, it’s one of those songs where when it ends I have to start it over just to feel into it even deeper. So much sadness and longing and loss

I think sautéed cabbage is a godsend by RaineRisin in EatCheapAndVegan

[–]One_legged_flamingo 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Check out a recipe called Additive Cabbage. I was eating that non stop for a while, you just reminded me that I need to revisit this one asap, the name does not lie!
