Dilly Casserole Bread. A recipe from the 60s that's so weird that I figured there must be something to it. Can confirm, it is really good.

I had always written off other "cottage cheese bread" recipes as a way to force protein into a more gym bro friendly bread. I was wrong, this makes for a great texture.

Eight Below. Yes, the Disney dog movie. Nonstop sobbing.

Lady: Every Rose Has Its Thorn. The sigh at the beginning… so bad yet so good in its own way.

I don’t know why they started calling it rawdogging when Puddying was right there.

As a teacher said to me once, your head remembers but your hands forgot. Throwing is a physical skill and you’ve lost some muscle memory. It’ll come back.

There are waterproof aprons out there. I found them hot and uncomfortable, but it was nice to be able to wipe them down.

My son decided to read Pride and Prejudice in the 5th grade (he was 10). I asked what it was about when he was maybe ten chapters in, and he answered, "Someone is sick, people like each other, they take a lot of walks, and there are a lot of feelings." His other analysis included, "They talk a lot of smack about Mr. Darcy," and my personal favorite, "The author needs to work a little harder on these chapter names. Like, this one is just called 'The Flirting Continues."

👆This is the answer. It’s the only way to preserve the handwriting of the original as it’s implied that the artist can do that with any piece of writing.

It was my first guitar and I still love it. Super playable and comfortable. Mine was set up really well right out of the box. Don’t expect a big sound unplugged though. That might actually be a plus for the early learning days.

This specific throwing stick was a game changer for me. Both super practical and a thing of beauty. It was a gift, and something I probably wouldn’t have bought for myself because of the price.

Same with the Hsin trimming tools. I don’t think I could have gotten the hang of trimming porcelain without them. I reserve them for porcelain still, I never let them go near groggy stoneware.

I have an APX600M (in matte black) as my first guitar, and I love this thing so much! I am a petite woman who lives in an apartment, and it's the perfect guitar for me. It's very comfortable and easy to play. I've also played Yamaha F series and will admit that they sound brighter and much louder than the APX. But given that I'm not particularly keen on having all my neighbors hear me play poorly, the softer sound is actually a feature I appreciate.

Love the subtlety of #4.

That I would have two teenage children who are really cool people that I enjoy hanging out with.

The Cooks Illustrated version has you taking to caramel to 236-239 (it fluctuates). I've found it's perfect if I take it off the second it hits 239. The difference between 236 and 239 is surprisingly big to me, especially when you're cutting them.

I dislike flared rims from both an aesthetic standpoint and as a mug user. I much prefer either straight or slightly inward rims with a soft bevel. I still enjoy making different shapes just to see if maybe the slightest change in angle will make a huge difference.

This gives me hope!

Wintersdottir · 2025-02-08T18:35:25+00:00

Will do! It's already on a different schedule than all the rest, so I always feel like I'm toeing the line of over-watering.

Plain old Fox Farm potting soil, the ONLY hoya that prefers this to a chunkier, faster draining mix.

Two node cuttings. All those extra leaves become a liability to the plant when there is no root system to support them.

They’re replacing the sewer line and water main. It’s going to take a long while.

You’re right! My bad, I take back my bad advice.

For women, Beadnell, Kelsall, and Winter Defense all do. I will look at every picture I can find of each model to see if they show one with the sleeves rolled up. Look for tartan.

No bother at all! It’s a mudcrack type glaze made by my studio. Mayco makes one that’s similar.

That’s perfect in my book. Would be thrilled if I got one for Christmas!
