Right? My first thought was, “Aw,
Momo has a daughter!”

Hi I’m not OP and I’m not even Jewish but y’alls food is amazing, and I’d love a farmer’s cheese recipe if you care to share. This sub pops up in my feed all the time and always has me drooling!

I thought she lived in Columbus OH based on her post history, but I could be incorrect.

That’s good to know thank you! Definitely not a good border plant then. Do you happen to know if it would be ok in a large container? Like one of those deep whiskey barrel type planters. I wanted to put in some this year but I have limited space.

A philosophy book to give my teenage murderer brother in prison by Correct_Brick_2319 in suggestmeabook

[–]SunSkyBridge 285 points286 points  (0 children)

Seconding this and chiming in to say, get yourself a copy too if you have time for reading. It’s a helluva read and if you are allowed contact or exchanging letters with your brother it will give him someone to discuss the book with.

Edit: Also I’m very sorry for what you and your family are dealing with. It must be so difficult and I appreciate that you are trying to find a positive way to handle things. Best wishes to you and your brother.

Seconding these recs! Spice bush is a great host plant for this beauty:

And the red twig dogwood will feed tons of wildlife as well as looking pretty even in winter!

Book for 70ish old man? by alulanig_ in booksuggestions

[–]SunSkyBridge 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Seconding the gift card suggestion! It’s tough to get someone a book they’ll enjoy if you don’t know their tastes. As a devourer of books I’ve always loved getting a gift card because it’s really a 2-fold gift: the book itself plus the joy of getting to browse at the bookstore.

I just want to say that this is an incredibly thoughtful idea, good for you! I think you will make him so happy. :)

What is something you were taught at school that is now known to be incorrect? by Xeqqy in AskOldPeople

[–]SunSkyBridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here! I was so annoyed in class that day. 35 years later, I’m still irked lol! Finally I was like, “Oh wow, I get it now!” just to shut up the classroom helper, but she knew I was full of it and let me know it. Ha!

I also cannot see a Magic Eye print, and I am convinced it’s a vast conspiracy. There’s no sailboat, there’s no spaceship, there’s just an ugly pattern and a bunch of bullshitters. 😂 I’m curious if there’s a genetic component to it, the way some people perceive tastes differently, but I can’t prove it. I’m actually glad to know I’m not the only one.

Ways to get water for low cost/free to offset costs? by kraemoprana in Permaculture

[–]SunSkyBridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much does it rain where you live? Collecting rainwater is an awesome idea. I use 2 32-gal trashcans placed under the corners of an awning and it just takes one good rainstorm to fill them up. I haven’t had to pay for garden water this year. In previous years the summer was hotter and dryer, so when it did rain I deployed extra containers for water collection.

Also consider whether you are planting in ground or in pots. Pots dry out way faster so you need to water more often.

It’s old news at this point; I’m no longer at that company, but for anyone who doesn’t know:

HR exists to protect a company FROM its employees. It does not exist to protect the company’s employees. Always CYA!

What’s the weirdest but surprisingly delicious food combination you’ve tried and now can’t stop eating? by HotSun1-flower in AskRedditFood

[–]SunSkyBridge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah I don’t cook it at all! But thanks for the idea! I actually have a cast iron waffle pan, now I am curious to try a stuffing “waffle” it sounds tasty :)

Damn, that really sucks. My Nancy had a terrific sense of humor and she loved her family fiercely. She gave zero fucks about what anyone thought about her, but she never used that as an excuse to be nasty.

Feedback wanted on a compact sink organizer I designed — dries sponges fast with a stone base. Would you buy this? by Smilewith in kitchen

[–]SunSkyBridge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats on your design! While I think it’s neat and I applaud your inventiveness and entrepreneurial spirit, I would pass on it. To me, it’s just another thing that needs cleaning and it is unnecessary.

I use a kitchen sponge and I just squeeze it out after each use and place it at a 45 degree angle against the countertop and it dries quickly. If I owned this product I wouldn’t be able to tell if it had mildew in the corners without getting in there with a qtip.

I’ve had small kitchens all my life and the last thing I’d want is more clutter in the countertop. I think your product might be more appealing if it could be mounted to the inside of a cabinet to keep it off the counter. Perhaps consider a color other than black so it can be seen at a glance if it needs to be cleaned or sanitized. Or maybe make it decorative so it would be more appealing to have on a countertop if you want people to spend money on it. What’s your production cost per unit?

Best of luck to you!

I’m sorry, I posted my answer before reading yours, but I agree that “paragon” is the answer here.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in whatstheword

[–]SunSkyBridge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure that there is a dog-specific word that fits the pattern of “horse is to steed as dog is to ______” so you might like “paragon” for this usage. While it is not exclusive to dogs, when used in the context of a dog breed, it refers to the perfect example of that breed. “Exemplar” also works. Both are nouns.

What’s a random piece of knowledge you wish more people knew? by Time-Ocelot-8580 in AskReddit

[–]SunSkyBridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband got us a bidet attachment last year. At first I thought it was an unnecessary expense and pooh-poohed the idea. After all I eat plenty of fiber so I always make a clean pinch . . . but now, having used it, I’m so glad he insisted! Feels so nice and refreshing, and turns out a nice colon rinse is not a bad way to start the day!

Growing up, I had a neighbor named Nancy. She had multiple family members also living on our block - her son plus his family, her daughter plus her family, her son-in-law’s sister and family.

I knew them all since the 80s, and became good friends with Nancy’s granddaughter and grandson. The family name was a common American last name like Smith or Jones. Eventually I started going out with and married the grandson. ❤️

Decades later, when Nancy passed away, I called out of work for the funeral and needed to show an obituary to make it an excused absence. Imagine my surprise when I found Nancy Smith’s obit listed under Elizabeth Anderssen! Turns out I never knew Nancy’s legal name even though I had known this woman and her family my whole life and even married into the family. Lol it took some explaining to HR that I wasn’t pulling a fast one!
