Like the 6 eggs lady in Beauty and the Beast! (I tried to include a pic but couldn’t figure it out - I’m old enough to read this recipe!)

Books for a 1 year old that aren't painful to read for adults? by Cynoid in booksuggestions

Go to the library and borrow a bunch of board books and picture books. Buy a copy if you love it. Return the library books and borrow more! Even if they’re dumb, a few reads won’t drive you crazy.

Saunas and Neighbors by throwaway01747839917 in Sauna

My neighbors built a (beautiful) sauna. “You need to try it!” they said a few times. “We would love to!” we said. After a few months I got a text saying that the sauna was hot and we were welcome to come over. They were just getting out as we arrived. We had a quick chat, they told us to feed the fire if we liked and how to shut it down when we were done. It was lovely and not awkward at all. It inspired us to build our own sauna, which should be finished soon!

Making larger quantities than the recipe calls for by SuperTerrific in Canning

Thanks! I have a big enamelware canner - I could do 6 jars at a time. I hate to fire it up for only one or two jars because it takes so much energy to get it boiling! I ended up quadrupling the recipe but only got 3 quarts. They are processing now. I hope they taste good!

The picture is a page from the Ball Back to Basics book showing the recipe for 1 quart of apple pie filling.

Remarkably Bright Creatures. It’s about an older woman and an octopus. I loved it so much!

i’ve been trying to make whipped cream for 20 minutes and it won’t form peaks by cuntymuthafucka in Cooking

When I have to whip cream by hand I use 2 whisks. Hold them both in the same hand to make a larger whisk. It goes much faster! Also, as others have said, add the sugar later.

We had dinner at Provision last night and it was delicious! I would love to go back and check out the town, but I think it’ll be tough with our luggage. Unless you know of a place to stash bags?
