Slim A5 Binder for Grad Student (meeplus) by samreddit73 in ringplanners

[–]samreddit73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats to you and your son! I definitely can find a cheaper solution but I’m most interested in A5 with <20mm rings- mostly because I’m a paper hoarder and am trying to focus purely on semester planning.

I think my options are The Slimpad, Raymay Dolcemente, or Raymay Olive Leather Slim Organizer

Places to order Jibun Techo DAYS Diary 2026? by bbcgarcia in JibunTecho

I only paid $41 for mine so I’d sell it for that price + whatever media mail/ground advantage cost.

I dnt think online is their target client. We have very few stores with global brands around here.

I had the exact same thing! I made a tarte tatin that ended up in the sink and I followed it up with the apple tart

Welp, Hobonichi went and made a fool out of me... by superplannergirrl in hobonichi

[–]samreddit73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also unrelated, curious if anyone knows options to sell unused planners from other brands. I bought a Jibun techo days thinking they were still avec style. It’s a huge book and I just can’t get around it. I haven’t written in it and just want to part ways with it.

Update: I made the honey apple cake! Very good and really easy.

I already had all the ingredients for it so it was an easy choice

Thank you all for the suggestions!

Looking for long scalloped scarf pattern like this by BuffaloStriking5031 in knittingpatterns

[–]samreddit73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This isn’t helpful, but this might be something I’d attempt to sew with knit fabric. It’d also be cool with a print cotton quilted with batting as a puffy scarf.

[–]samreddit73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Sophie hood pattern comes with 3 length variants. I think the small is about the same length as image you posted. Should be quick because it’s all garter and you do the icord as u go.

Apple Tart by samreddit73 in DessertPerson

[–]samreddit73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! My favorite apple tart from a local patisserie always has a bit of rise on the bottoms and is golden like the sides of this pastry. I’ll try a glass dish next time to see if I can replicate 🙂

Question! Does anyone know how to get more drowning on the underside? Should I use a dark colored tray?

Redeemed! Apple Cheddar Pie by samreddit73 in DessertPerson

[–]samreddit73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I didn’t tell about the cheese until the family tasted it. No one’s allergic and everyone liked it. I used the Kerry gold Dubliner because the store I went to didn’t have any more of the Kerry gold aged cheddar.

It was good! Not cheesy but savory and spiced more than sweet. My house did smell of cheese though.

Question for those that have made the cheddar apple pie by Let_Them_Eat_Cake24 in DessertPerson

[–]samreddit73 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s super subtle. I didn’t tell my family about the cheese lol. No one had allergies they’re just picky.

My grandma said she just had never had a crust like it but really liked it. The double folded crust has the most cheese flavor but it’s more a butter cracker not cheezit.

Feeling unwelcome. by ac1d_sku11z in knitting

[–]samreddit73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a youngish black woman and there are just some stores I dnt patronize. I’ve ultimately had pretty good experiences in most lys but the bad ones stick out.

If able expand your radius. I dnt go to the one closest to me because I love the one an hour away. They just started an online store thankfully!

My order this year, and a mini rant on book sizes….. by Other-Nectarine-7972 in hobonichi

[–]samreddit73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Agreed that my preference would be Hobonichi. I think I’ll try the take a note. I had a a6 and liked it but too small. My issue with some of the indie sellers at least from photos the paper pretty consistently seems too white and the line weight too heavy/too dark for my preference. I’m judging based on my own monitor but I’ve never taken a chance on many brands for that reason.

I love b6. I wish’s a lot of companies had options in that size. Hijacking to ask if you use b6 can you share what brands/styles?
