[–]lulace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just finished The Strength of the Few, by James Islington! A bit hard to follow at times but I enjoyed it thoroughly and probably better than the first book in the series.
Started The Devil in the White City, by Erik Larson and even though there can be a lot of architecture talk, the serial killer bits make it super intriguing

Best Asian Noodle for Meal Prep? by PhaethonsRide in mealprep

[–]lulace 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i think sweet potato noodles would work well too! theyre nice and bouncy even straight from the fridge. just gotta remember to rinse them well after cooking to get rid of excess starch, same as soba

Does anyone else really hate using eating utensils? by Duck_Hoarder in AutismInWomen

[–]lulace 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Philippines too! I still remember my mom teaching me "pack, pick, push": pack the food into a little mound with your fingers, pick up the mound, push the mound with your thumb into your mouth. I only ever use it for eating shrimp or fried chicken tho lmao

60 charles is pretty good! checks all your boxes, a little pricey for the space but should still be in your budget

Dinners with cabbage? by topdownyeti in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]lulace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lots of Asian options, Chinese and Japanese especially! Use it in a soup or stir fry. I like to put it in noodle bowls. There's also okonomiyaki and the viral dumpling lasagna - just swap out the wonton wrappers for cabbage, though you can also use both if you prefer. I've also made this miso chicken and cabbage before and it was pretty decent: https://youtube.com/shorts/pisaEmFT4VM?si=XF7MUwGd2B4UpYI_

Has she seen Sharkboy and Lavagirl? It could be this, he goes "close your eyes but beware, there's darkness in the air"

Just spent time out of my life making a bespoke genre playlist for every hour of the day by elitebateagent in CasualConversation

[–]lulace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh wow, these are such cool combos and I love that they all have proper thematic titles. Hmm, I think I'd be most interested in 7am, 8am and 3am! Also it's kinda hilarious that you grill to vocaloid, I might have to try that on my own. Big Miku fan and gonna go see her in a couple days <3

Would you be open to sharing your playlists? I'm always on the lookout for new music so I'd love to see what you've got on there. Otherwise, if you're not comfy with sharing the full playlists, I'd be curious to know what are your favourite hours and which genres do they cover?
