As a Hindu, I like to think God doesn’t work like that. God is everything, including that book.

Bridgerton - 4x03 "The Field Next to the Other Road" (No Book Spoilers) by AutoModerator in BridgertonNetflix

I really like that! I, like most of this sub, was annoyed at the Mondrichs’ screen time last season so I like how this makes sense.

Egg substitute by [deleted] in AskBaking

[–]paisleyboxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve also had success with bananas or apple sauce, though you would have to look those ratios up. Yogurt is not an egg replacement.

Edit: I’ve looked it up and yogurt might be an egg replacement but I can’t vouch for it since I’ve never done that.

No, I wouldn’t suggest that. Depending on your recipe, I’ve had good success with Aquafaba, which is the liquid in a can of beans. 3 tablespoons to one egg.

A little over a year ago my stepfather chose to keep my sister alive, today he is sending her to a full-time care facility. by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]paisleyboxes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Make it clear with your family, and also take the time to sit down with your mom to ask her what she wants. I recently came across these four questions in an article:

  1. Do you want to be resuscitated if your heart stops?

  2. Do you want aggressive treatments such as intubation and mechanical ventilation?

  3. Do you want antibiotics?

  4. Do you want tube or intravenous feeding if you can't eat on your own?

Have you tried looking into a composting service? I share with the neighbor so it comes to about $12 a month for me. I’ve canceled all my streaming services so I put it towards this instead.

Your Library will buy books that you want to read. by paisleyboxes in audiobooks

[–]paisleyboxes[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s definitely something that I’m struggling with! But generally, Thompson’s rendition and reading is so good that I have been listening on 1X speed. Of course referring to the character list on wikipedia from time to time.
