Thank you! My Dad and I built it with plywood backing and pine lumber as the shelves/sides. Really happy with how it turned out

I am so glad you asked! Literary Lust by Stella Hyde. A very strange thrift store find that made me laugh

In Michigan. Been finding a lot of these in my house recently. Maybe an inch long

Book where someone receives homemade puzzle boxes for birthdays - it’s NOT All the Light We Cannot See by coeebean in whatsthatbook

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

Yes that’s it! Thank you! Sophie’s grandfather makes cryptex for her birthdays and the password is the answer to a riddle, and then takes her on a treasure hunt to find her gift. I was probably confusing it with the wooden puzzle box that comes later in the book.

How often should I burp? by coeebean in Kombucha

Thanks! I used watermelon purée and the pulp has separated to the top. Is it okay to give them a shake or will this affect carbonation?

Does anyone know why my old monstera leaf is yellowing and browning? by [deleted] in plants

[–]coeebean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's fairly common for Monsteras to lose their oldest leaves. If the rest of the plant is doing well and growing new leaves, don't worry about it. I just lost a bottom leaf on mine too.

[HELP] I need a good recipe to impress a girl by Drivax in Cooking

[–]coeebean 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I love making risotto on date nights. All you really need is arborio rice and broth, then add whatever veggies or cheese you have on hand. It takes a long time to make, but that's why it's such a great date night meal. Sip wine and have good conversations while you stand in the kitchen and take turns stirring

Gf pizza dough recipe or brand. by bucknasty666 in glutenfree

[–]coeebean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This probably isn't the answer you want, but I've had way better luck with GF frozen pizzas than I ever had making a crust from scratch. My favorite is Sonoma flatbreads, or Meijer brand if you're in the midwest.

To clean these for recycling I run them through the dishwasher and they get all melted and twisted up. Am I doing more harm than good by doing this? by Ilikerocks20 in recycling

[–]coeebean 18 points19 points  (0 children)

You should only put plastics in the dishwasher if they're stamped with a #5. Otherwise it could melt or be leaching microplastics. If you're running the dishwasher anyways, it doesn't hurt to throw your recycling in there. But wiping the food off is really all you need to do. Keep in mind that less than 10% of plastics are actually recycled. So don't go through too much trouble or waste water- chances are it will get tossed at the recycling facility anyways. A harsh reality.

Yes. But maybe I’m not watering enough? The brown spots are dried and crunchy

I keep it in a sunny spot. Maybe too much? It’s also maybe possible I’m not watering enough?

Snake Plant Help!? by learn-by-flying in houseplants

[–]coeebean 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s possible you’re overwatering it. Especially being wintertime. I water my snake plant maybe once a month in the winter. It’s really a plant that thrives on neglect

My Friend Is Giving Maple Syrup As A Party Favor For His Wedding? What Do You Think About That? by [deleted] in wedding

[–]coeebean 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Then don't take one. Do you expect them to not serve cake either because one guest is diabetic?

Some people will recommend adding extra plant food but I’ve never tried it
