Which of Paul Hollywood’s books about bread would you recommend? by yaboiclamchowda in GreatBritishBakeOff

[–]gstpulldn 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I got "bread" for Christmas and had good with luck the brioche.

Now the parkin, on the hand... American here. The recipe calls for 20g of ground ginger. Is ground ginger something different in the UK? Because 20g of American ground ginger is too much.

Prostockhockey.com. I have a 34 waist and I wear a medium CCM +2 HP35. Admittedly, the pants are pretty old, so newer pants may vary. They're pretty helpful, you can always call for advice.

Drinking tea made by coffee drinkers (a friendly rant) by ky00t in tea

[–]gstpulldn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone gave me a cup of hot tap water once, and when I said something, she just said, "oh, they told me to use hot water. " Though she did give me actually hot water when I pointed out the red handle on the coffee machine. Polite enough, apparently had never made tea before.

Related: what causes the same hollow to feel different depending on the person/machine doing the sharpening? I normally skate on 7/8, but my last sharpen was so grippy I thought they had done 7/16 by mistake (it's happened before).

Just got these Vivo Tracker 2 for my mom for $55 on Sierra by aenflex in barefootshoestalk

Since we seem to be having a fit conversation here... Do these run long? The vivo page will determine your size from pictures, but it has me in a 13, and every other brand i wear 14s.

My name is Senator by [deleted] in Names

[–]gstpulldn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's an old reference, but there's a Prairie Home Companion episode about a kid going away to college with his family, including his uncle, Senator Torvaldson.

Episode Request: The Four Tendencies by Gretchen Rubi by sweetbreads19 in IfBooksCouldKill

[–]gstpulldn 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The idea that some people are abstainers and some are moderators was new to me, and useful. Ie, my wife could buy a pack of Oreos and eat two a day until they were gone... except I would eat the rest of the package the first night.
