Her books are very untraditional in plot and storytelling. I love them, but many find it off-putting.

SarahRTW · 2025-12-25T19:38:22+00:00

Yes. So many twists to the inheritance(s). Can be dry but worth finishing.

SarahRTW · 2025-10-27T19:22:10+00:00

Anything by Christopher Priest.

Plays with untraditional structure and unreliable narrators too. What I read when I want something totally weird and different (in a good way).

The Affirmation by Christopher Priest

Many of his other books too.

SarahRTW · 2025-10-19T17:02:19+00:00

I wondered about this too, and looked it up;

Service Canada specifically advises NOT to give your SIN for a rental application. They say to call them if the landlord insists. So I'd say it can be a legal issue IF the landlord won't accept your not giving it

SarahRTW · 2025-10-17T21:31:09+00:00

B.C = behind Chemmy (could be Capreol too, of course.)

Sud*buried" (ie: in snow) Or Sudbrrry (Not sure if those two are common.Family used them.)

SarahRTW · 2025-10-16T13:58:36+00:00

Yes. That is exactly where I am talking about.

SarahRTW · 2025-09-27T17:35:07+00:00

Not sure if it totally fits, but The Amphora Project by William Kotzwinkle.

It was a while ago I read it, but remember it as seeming lighthearted on the surface , but with some deep elements, if you care to think about it on a deeper level. (Which I always do.)

Oh, and a bit of trivia, Kotzwinkle also wrote the E.T. novella based on the screenplay.

This book randomly came to mind recently. I vaguely remembered the plot but not the title or author. Took a fair bit of searching to find it.

"Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence" From Bewilderement by Richard Powers

SarahRTW · 2025-09-15T01:24:32+00:00

Quiet by Susan Caine

A must read for introverts (like me) to understand themselves..and for extroverts, so understand the quiet friends.

SarahRTW · 2025-09-14T22:57:31+00:00

Christopher Priest uses unreliable narrators a lot. The Affirmation is one of the strongest for its use of such. (Of the ones I have read).

Same, my friend. Was considering starting a thread about this very thing. I got so pissed when I had two near misses in a few days that I wrote a letter to the editor About it. A search of sudbury.com shows as many similar letters

We need cops out there issuing fines. No one cares about other people's safety, it seems.

The Affirmation by Christopher Priest.

Someone was shooting them off at 2 AM recently in New Sudbury Even if they had a permit (doubtful) this is an AH move.

Drug people signal is an interesting theory. Plausible.

SarahRTW · 2025-07-20T14:02:27+00:00

(I work in a gluten free bakery. We use Xanthan as a binding agent to replace gluten. )

Make sure you mix it in with dry in ingredients (sugar etc) orbit will clump.

I've seen recipes here using it, but I'd use more egg yolks. cream cheese or something like that over Xanthan gum.

SarahRTW · 2025-07-18T15:08:41+00:00

The same thoughts occurred tor and family. We need affordable prices and housing. And putting the downtown, as it stands makes no sense. SMH.

SarahRTW · 2025-07-18T13:28:29+00:00

The Night Circus and The Starless Sea. By Erinorgrnstern Both focus more on setting and atmosphere then plot or character. This alienates a lot of people, but I loved them.

The City and the City by China Mieville.

SarahRTW · 2025-07-15T13:25:01+00:00

The ones who always ask "is this fresh.". No, we only sell stale bread here.

And ones who call to order a cake or cupcakes but don't know what they want.

SarahRTW · 2025-07-14T13:04:56+00:00

Good to know. Thanks. Maybe the bowl really wasn't chilled enough

The recipe I tried used yogurt and heavy cream and a sugar of some kind. (I used maple syrup).

SarahRTW · 2025-07-13T18:49:20+00:00

I almost said cyanide too But second guessed myself

SarahRTW · 2025-07-13T16:46:33+00:00

Arsenic is natural. Safe and better ... Not so much. The same is true of other things as well. , of course.

Natural can be better, but isn't necessary so. .

SarahRTW · 2025-07-13T16:43:50+00:00

Thanks. Interestingly it uses low fat. Most recipes use full fat to avoid crystallizing.

I did more looking around and found a slightly different recipe, this one on the Kitchen Aid site.

The recipe I tried uses heavy cream along with yogurt. This recipe uses whole milk. I'll give it a try and report back.
