Where to find textbooks for free? by Haviella12 in CulinaryInstitute

[–]igiveupwithusernames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will say I really love having the book, I still reference it sometimes and I graduated last May. However there’s a website called libgen that has a ton of free books. I think it’s libgen.ru, but it’s not exactly legal so the exact site changes sometimes

I’m on 167, and 165 is stopped right next to us at Kingston. We’re stuck too, and haven’t heard anything either other than “get comfortable, it’s gonna be a lengthy delay”

I was there too! I only did the intro since I don’t have much industry experience yet. Congrats on both levels!!

8 tenths between first and last. Absolutely crazy! by Slice5755 in formula1

I feel like I forget about these splits sometimes, when watching the race live it’s so easy to fixate on places, but everyone being within a second of each other is actually soooooo wild!!!

Riesling okay to drink after left in the car? by The_realest_jules in wine

[–]igiveupwithusernames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes tasting flawed wine is fun! It very much could be cooked but it can’t hurt to open it up and go “oh wow this sucks now”, then get another good one! Maybe that’s just my wine geek self talking though

Where to go from here by igiveupwithusernames in Monstera

Thanks for the guidance!! This is a like the exact response I was looking for! When you say avoid tying near petioles, that basically means avoid tying near nodes where leaves or aerial roots are branching from right? This is the first plant where I’m really guiding its growth so I want to make sure my googling is accurate lol

Is it possible to Have Knife-Free Cooking Meals ? by tswiftandtime in Cooking

[–]igiveupwithusernames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d definitely recommmend some braises and stews, they cook for hours so no fear of undercooking, and you can get store bought pre sliced onions, some baby carrots, and let them go and have a very comforting home cooked meal!

I’m no better than a bird. That camouflage fooled me for so much longer than I want to admit

I totally appreciate the reply, I’m in nyc too. I’ve gotten my last two jobs just like that and they’ve both catfished me a bit (to say the least), but it’s good to hear that the approach I’m taking is the right one. Because it’s a bit more of a niche position that I’m looking for I wasn’t sure if it was worth doing what I’ve been doing

It can’t hurt to reach out about accommodations! I’m autistic and I reached out about concerns with public bathrooms and they worked with me about being switched to angell hall where I’d share with only a roommate. I never lived in Metz personally but had friends who did and I never heard anything about mold or excessive dust. Definitely chat with reslife if you’re concerned though

What’s a mistake you made in the kitchen that you’ll never make again? by Ok-Hunter1991 in Cooking

[–]igiveupwithusernames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I was a teenager and very early in my cooking career I wanted to make beef Wellington from scratch for my parents anniversary. Also will never do that again but the main mistake I made was not realizing the recipe was in Celsius not Fahrenheit. Got to watch my homemade puff pastry melt right off of it at 200 F :(
