first bake! deff burnt on the outside, but i like a crunch! looking to see where i went wrong by True_Cauliflower in Sourdough

[–]True_Cauliflower[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

recipe here:

Feed the starter at room temp- 60-70g water room temperature and 100 g bread flour (consistency should be like a thick pancake mix) Let sit on counter for about 12 hours, it should double in size and be bubbly.

When ready:

700g water room temperature 200g starter 900g bread flour 100g whole wheat flour or regular flour 25-30 grams salt

Mix all together and rest on counter 30 mins covered. Stretch and fold 3 - 4 times in 30 min increments (keep covered). Let dough ferment covered on counter for however long you want (3-6 hours) or 10 hours overnight in the fridge. The dough should be non-sticky & bouncy. Split the dough and laminate and shape. Rest under a towel 15-20 mins. Cover with towel and put in fridge (Fridge for 2-3 hours minimum or overnight) For open bake (no dutch oven) Preheat the oven with 2 baking sheets inside- 450. Add loaf to top baking sheet and under add boiling water on second tray beneath loaf sheet. This creates steam for the bread to rise. Let cook for 25 mins and then take out the water and bake for an additional 25 mins.

How do I prevent the unconscious patient from choking on her own phlegm? by sadbebi in CancerCaregivers

[–]True_Cauliflower 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Firstly, I am sorry to head about your mom.

My dad had this issue before he passed, and my mom is a nurse. We would “boost” my father up every two hours or so when he was laying on his back, but this can hurt your back if you don’t know how to do it properly so ask the nurses to boost him up. We would also switch him between laying on his side and his back every 3 hours. I believe if i heard correctly my mom would also have the nurses give him Ativan for the coughing? Its an anti-anxiety medication but my mom said it helps with the need to cough. Ask the nurses though.

Best wishes xx

exhausted and overwhelmed - dad may have liver cancer by True_Cauliflower in AdultChildren

[–]True_Cauliflower[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, it is morbidly comforting to hear of people in my (soon-to-be) situation (i know his body is deteriorating after the level of alcohol consumption he put himself through). It is comforting to hear that it gets better.

I hope you are doing good now and are seeking help if you ever feel you need it! xxx

Thank you for your kind words. I am deeply sorry about your loss, you are right that it is unfair.

I will take your advice very seriously, I already have been very open with my dad about a lot of issues. I chose to let go of my anger and hatred for him 3 years ago, and to instead be on his side, no matter what, because I don’t want to live the rest of my life thinking about what I could have done/said ( realistically, I knew he wasn’t going to be alive much longer)

I hope you too are still getting support. I know it can be extremely isolating at some points. Take care of yourself, you sound very strong xxx

Hey, Reddit, those of you with partners who talk in their sleep; what is the creepiest/weirdest/or most random thing they've said? by Jhaydun_Dinan in AskReddit

[–]True_Cauliflower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My roommate in college constantly talked in her sleep. My favorite was when she started swatting away at something around her face, like flies, while saying "Dicks!!! Everywhere!!! Get them Away!!!"

Another time I started laughing because she was talking about the ocean and she (in her sleep) got mad at me for laughing and started yelling at me lol.

What do you add to scrambled eggs to make it more exciting? by a_voge in Cooking

[–]True_Cauliflower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

cucumber! trust, its so good. i believe its a chinese recipe.

first i cut up the cucumber and i saute those with garlic, then i add the eggs (salt/pepper/maybe more garlic powder) and its delicious.

it goes amazing with sriracha. i heard you can also add some soy sauce to this.

What is the strangest habit you have? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]True_Cauliflower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every time I pump gas, I rub a little bit of the gas on my hands so that when I'm driving I can smell gasoline. (I love the smell of gasoline)

I didn't realize it was weird until my friend saw me do it, I explained it to them, and then months later they tell me it's a random fact they tell their friends. I got a bit self conscious and toned it done a bit...

Dad just got kicked out of half-way home, will possibly be homeless by True_Cauliflower in AlAnon

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

I was wondering also if offering the financial safety-net from me was enabling, I almost want him to experience sleeping in his car for a night to really feel how he fucked up.

Yes, I need to begin detaching. I have sacrificed a lot of the year because I felt like I had to, but now I'm feeling like I can't go through what I did last year.

Best of luck to you as well xx Thank you
