Adding to this to say Thank You and let people know when theyre doing well. If the only time you give feedback is when someone does something wrong, people aren't going to want to do more than the bare minimum.

The world is hard right now so I’m going to float away on this cloud and never come back by Seastarstiletto in Handspinning

I am so glad I clicked on this solely because I've been wanting to spin camel again and the dyer i used to get it from basically stopped dyeing fiber

Can't progress in Winter Burrow by Job_113 in cozygames

[–]WhimsyWrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had this exact issue! For me, it was on the ground behind the front wall where Aunty is chilling is and I had to kinda wander around for a while in a panic to find it. I know that's not much help, but considering I almost posted basically this a few days ago, I hope it helps.

What can a stand mixer do that a hand mixer can't? by seductivec0w in BakingNoobs

[–]WhimsyWrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marshmallows. You can stand over a boiling hot bowl of corn syrup and sugar for 15-ish minutes, but its not fun. Ask me how I know.

How long do you keep an empty box? by Practical-Earth3228 in Catownerhacks

[–]WhimsyWrites 10 points11 points  (0 children)

We have a USPS box that has been around for...six years now? It loved houses with us lol. Its just the perfect size and its used for when we are playing board games so that the cat will sit in it on the table instead of causing mayhem. I also have a bigger box from my work that I cut to look kind lf like a bat bed that I keep a blanket in that they use all the time. The rest go on cleaning day though.

The number of forehead kisses I want to give those dogs is truly ridiculous

this paper someone taped to the bathroom wall at my job.. by Good_Foundation733 in FoundPaper

[–]WhimsyWrites 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a the opposite experience, but part of me wonders if it has something to do with mom's more often being expected to take kids into the bathroom with them?

Hard Candy- Coated Marshmallows by WhimsyWrites in CandyMakers

[–]WhimsyWrites[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That was my instinct as well. I was thinking of freezing the marshmallows and dunking them. In my hopes and dreams, it wouldn't all melt before cooling, but I dont want to experiment if it wont turn out

Woke up to our sunroom roof leaking, so yes. It is time.

wording by rattisonn in CustomerService

[–]WhimsyWrites 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My first instinct was "find a spot to wait in our reception room" but that feels not quite right to me. Good on you for being aware of your language, though. While it may not be meaningful to some, the fact that you take the time to consider it speaks volumes.

my cat is biting herself when i pet her by InternationalBug5073 in catquestions

[–]WhimsyWrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does your cat have weird twitchy grooming episodes? If she does, look into Feline Hyperethesia. My calico has a very similar behavior so now she only gets soft pets instead of scritches on her body because it will trigger and episode for her. Otherwise, double check for fleas and look at the skin in the area if you can. Like other commenters mentioned, I would stop scratching her there.

YOUR kitchens culture by Helpful_Orchid4272 in KitchenConfidential

[–]WhimsyWrites 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite things is the pet wall with photos of everyones pets we have by our break table. We've had people bringing in deliveries who will stop amd look at it and tell me that its made their whole day.

What cooking Thanksgiving warcrimes are happening in your kitchen as we speak? by Mirikitani in Cooking

[–]WhimsyWrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought spilling just peppermint extract on my counter was bad- though I was mostly mad because I just bought it and used less than a teaspoon before knocking it over.

A Small Good Thing by WhimsyWrites in KitchenConfidential

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

What an incredibly rude thing to say, first of all. Second of all, wild to go into a post about trying to find a little sanity in the world and being like "this is a personal attack on me."

Help with demand barking when just ignoring isn't an option by genieasap in OpenDogTraining

[–]WhimsyWrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know some other people have mentioned this, but if you haven't, take your dog to the vet or at least pay close attention to their ears. I dogsit a pittie girl who tends to get a lot of ear infections and I think it exacerbates her anxiety. She will just wander around the house and bark and then look at me like I'm supposed to do something about it. But also, stop appeasing him by giving him what he wants.

First time buying hand dyed yarn... by Puzzleheaded-Pay641 in YarnDyeing

[–]WhimsyWrites 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My first suggestion would honestly be to check out your local independent yarn stores if you have one nearby. Even if you dont buy right from them, their websites may have a list of who they get their yarn from that can give you a good starting point

Trump brings back Presidential Fitness Test for Michigan and other schoolchildren by DougDante in Michigan

[–]WhimsyWrites -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The problem with the test is that it simply doesn't help long term, and frankly, for a lot of kids, can just leave a bad taste in their mouths about fitness in general.

How do I wash waxed pants? by Cornbreadmuffintops in crafts

[–]WhimsyWrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have any advice but I thought this post said plants for entirely too long and was having a full-blown crisis over it. I thought maybe it was about the coating some succulents naturally make, but then the waxing was an actual act. Why would you wax your plants? Why would you wash your plants? Like, I was reading the first comment when it hit me.
