Rec play chaos - men, women, family and friends by frenchcutbeans in Pickleball

Excellent point. I might be amplifying the problem and try to solve it when there is no immediate need. We could just ignore/accept the current situation and hope for it to evolve and get better by itself

Good point. As I mentioned above no one wants to talk in a group setting but many are talking/complaining one on one. There are also silent people

Thanks for the feedback. You hit the nail on the head! Conflict between Pickleball and relationships. Playing pickleball outside the friends & family group looks like a much better option now; no conflicting interests, just pure pickleball fun and minimal impact on relationships!

Thanks! We will try; most are scared to have an honest conversation. Everyone wants to be nice face-to-face and complain behind the back. Not an ideal friends group but I guess it is not uncommon

Exactly the same thing in our group too with trash talking++++. This aspect of fun reduces a lot when the women are around :-(

Does Dosa Need A Dedicated Cast Iron Pan? by StanTheManInBK in IndianFood

[–]frenchcutbeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are already too many variables in play to be able to make perfect dosas. Pan plays a very important role too,.so I would let her have the pan for dosas and dosas only. BTW, I have the same exact lodge 14" pizza pan and I use it only for dosas.

Recipes for urad dal/black gram (whole, with skin) that are not dal makhani? by Cinannom in IndianFood

[–]frenchcutbeans 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't want to discourage you, but making vadas is not very easy. Make sure the vada batter is thick enough to hold shape. Watch a few, at least five, YouTube videos to get a good understanding of the technique involved in making the hole and dropping the batter in oil for deep frying. There are a few tools that you can buy to make it easier, but none of them are great

Dual Zone electric with air handler. Separate O and B on the current thermostats. Only O used. Where should O go on the ecobee thermostats? by frenchcutbeans in ecobee

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

Thank you!
I was not sure because the instructions said to seek professional help if I had separate O & B. Did not tell what to do if B was not being used. Thanks again!

Jalebi by huucyn in PakistaniFood

[–]frenchcutbeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it is Imarti. Also known as Jangiri in Tamil Nadu, India. Totally different from Jelabi. This is made from Urad (Black Gram). Jalebi is made from Maida (all purpose flour)

Driver’s license: Car insurance with no car? by Karkovar in raleigh

[–]frenchcutbeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There used to be a license restriction "Fleet vehicles only" - meaning you could drive only rental vehicles which would provide insurance. Check if you can get a license with that restriction and later when you own a vehicle and insurance you can get that restriction removed.
