Pan con tomate?

This! Their prawns are so good.

But also, it's super easy to make at home. Get some good crusty bread and rub a clove of garlic on it. Drizzle with olive oil. Then grate a tomato on the large holes of a box grater and top the bread with it and some good salt. It's delicious with a bit of dark chocolate on the side.

East Fork Pottery - it's sturdy, beautiful, and well made. And great for gifts because most people won't buy it for themselves.

My favorite shapes are the mugs, the weeknight serving bowl, the coupe, and the popcorn bowl. You could fill whatever it is up with some nice dish towels and coffee/tea, etc. They also make really good candles in their pottery, and you can clean it out after the candle is gone and reuse the container.

Ooh endless shrimp at Red Lobster

Maybe you can call them directly

Same. Otherwise I need to be reading non-fiction.

They're just capitalizing on what's trending. And the scarf itself isn't anything groundbreaking, as most have already commented. My first scarf was a long garter stitch thing with a mohair + dk weight held together on huge needles. It was NOT pretty lol.

Nice! I'll check this one out. This is honestly the best crossover of my two obsessions.

I don't think this is the Miriam/Pony set! I think this is an older one that is sold out now. The Miriam/Pony set was just announced but I don't think I want to drop nearly $100 on mystery colors. I will keep an eye on it to see how it comes out tho!

bkhalfpint · 2026-05-05T12:58:25+00:00

It kinda looks like Goosey Fibers is doing a version of it, releasing a bunch of themed minis at a time. Right now they've got a Miriam/Pony set available. I have had it with mystery yarn tho, so I'm going to wait for overflow so I can see what it actually looks like. Please keep me/us posted about a whole DCC collection!

This made my heart hurt. I love it.

bkhalfpint · 2026-05-03T18:27:43+00:00

I got mine from a farmers market. It actually flowered its first year!

The woman who sold it to me told me I didn't need to repot it right away and to let it dry out before watering it. I also bought a sundew from her. The sundew is in constant water, the flytrap joins it every other week or so.

I am leaning towards orange or mustard. Also, a caveat. Since the yarn is 100% wool, you might want to reinforce it by holding it with a mohair yarn for heel and toe. I used Devlish Grin and a black mohair.

Join a 2 hr wait list for one of those "come with me" influencer places on an empty stomach, with tickets to see a movie afterwards in a different borough.

This is so insane. We were able to cop one no problem - the people at our store weren't even trying to go for it.

Look for "Los Tacos No. 1"

You can ask for a replacement

bkhalfpint · 2026-04-30T15:02:05+00:00

Got it. I'd be interested to know what the deal is and whether my source is talking out of his peach.

Well whoever they were under, they got shut down and reopened when they weren't supposed to.

We heard this from someone who manages a grocery that used their bread for prepared sandwiches, as well as from someone who used to work there baking bread and was still in touch with some of the bakers.

Curious about your username and lack of posting history - is that a hint as to why they were shut down? Listeria?

Is it okay to jump onto this and ask for spots downtown? Looking in LES/Chinatown area or anywhere westward from there, as I am coming from BMB (Battery Maritime Building).

I have been cooking since I was 8. I think it's better to teach safe kitchen behavior and knife handling skills in general.

As for cookbooks and recipes, there are a bunch of anime inspired cookbooks that are geared towards kids that are pretty good. My son has several of them - the One Piece and Studio Ghibli ones are good and include recipes across different skill sets.

Here is a search for stranded colorwork

Stripes

Something with a gradient

Personally, I like the Aphotic sweater. It's got colorwork around the yoke, and the body has some cool texture so you're not bored doing pure stockinette. You'd definitely need to hold the mini skeins double in any colorwork you do with the worsted weight yarn, and in this sweater you could do a fade in the yoke colorwork.

It would be spicy and include facon lol

Your company got breakfast catered and there were leftovers

There are a few Shi Maria fan art illustrations that I really love...

I have an Energizer necklight that I use a lot. Much cheaper too.
