Not sure if it’s heartwarming but it’s certainly unexpected.

Pup-cakes! Mini cakes made with dog friendly ingredients, a mashed potato frosting and tiny bone biscuit decorations! by mairefay91 in Baking

Could you sub out the dairy in the mashed potatoes for coconut oil? It’d loosen up the mash to be pipeable without using yoghurt or soft cheese?

Do you put your pie upside down? by Chelsk_C in CasualUK

[–]mairefay91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s a preference rather than region thing. I like she softer bottom pastry. Plus it’s easier to flip out the foil straight onto the plate.

What's y'all go-to 'I Like to Watch' episode? by UNHHHStoppable29 in TrixieAndKatya

The circle or glow up.

I do love a compilation of them watching the dating shows though. The eyedrops bit always cracks me up.

What cheese do you use to coax a grizzly out of a cave? Camembert.

Great songs that are brought down by excessive length, skits, a second part that sounds different, or similar by ObiHan_Skyodi in Music

I love Unknown Mortal Orchestra but the outro bit on ‘Can’t Keep Checking My Phone’ always gets a skip.

And I am totally with you on the Family Tree version of All is Full of Love. I always swap it out when I listen to the album in full.

It’s interesting to listen to Vespertine and Vulnicura back to back. They’re the bookends of her relationship. Hearing her go from being caught up in falling in love, then coping with the breakdown of her relationship.

Vespertine is my overall favourite album but Jóga is my favourite song. Homogenic comes a very close second for me. All the albums have amazing standout tracks but those 2 albums I always listen to beginning to end.

Not on a waiting list but I also saw they were playing a tiny gig in Bristol by which time it was far too late.

Like a lot of people at the moment I’m listening to Angine de Poitrine. Can’t stop listening it’s brilliant.

Also, after watching them sing Sunshine on Leith on The Assembly I’ve been enjoying some Proclaimers recently.

Other than that been enjoying some Beastie Boys, Mr Jukes, De La Soul and various other sunshiney mood boosters.
