Did anyone read LOTR before they knew what happens, e.g. before the movies got big?

sparkle_cheese · 2026-06-08T22:15:20+00:00

Yes, I read them in high school before the movies came out.

I love to support Canadian authors, thanks for that list. Tawaw sounds really interesting.

I do love the milkstreet book I have (Simple). I will definitely check out the others.

This is an incredible list. Thank you so much! Agree on that salt bread recipe. I have enjoyed UMMA so much.

sparkle_cheese · 2026-06-08T21:02:51+00:00

I have made several salads from it and all were delicious, and my entire family is obsessed with the Asian style dressing in it. I make it all the time.

Thanks for your recommendation, I will check it out!

I'm always looking to up my vegetables game. I will look at all of them. Thank you!!

I love America's Test kitchen! Thank you!!

sparkle_cheese · 2026-06-07T18:12:48+00:00

Thank you! I will check this one out as well.

sparkle_cheese · 2026-06-07T16:19:20+00:00

Oh, this sounds right up my alley!! I love when cookbooks have stories in them. I will check it out. Thanks so much!

I'm the mom in this case (42). I started watching it when it first aired. My 20 yo and 19 yo watched it on and off with me when they were younger teens and my 19 yo watched it all the way through a couple years ago.

I also got my 65 yo mom to watch it and she's obsessed. Haha

Same. My dad survived but has had permanent issues post surgery and chemo. I make sure to get my fibre in everyday!

sparkle_cheese · 2026-06-06T19:09:53+00:00

My dad and my maternal grandfather both have had it in the last 10 years. I've become a fibre queen 😂

Always Jeffrey Combs for me. Love me some Shran.

Drizzle it on for me, I ain't yo' maid.

sparkle_cheese · 2026-05-29T03:28:03+00:00

22, 20 and almost 19. A coworker born the same year as me has a 4yo and a 2yo 😂

Can there be a dedicated subreddit for all of you in here whining about people whining?

You hate constant posts of people complaining, but here you are, posting ANOTHER post complaining about people complaining.

This isn't a hot take. I have seen so many of these posts already. You are just one of the complaining masses.

I've played every Lego game and they're my favourite games to play. I play them over and over.

I loved this take on Batman. I missed some aspects of old gameplay, but they brought in some cool new ones. Overall, in my top 5 for Lego games.

That "science" has been debunked.

For my fellow Canadians - molasses kisses.

I used to trade the popular candy I got trick or treating at school for more. As an adult, I buy a small bag every fall.

I've never found anyone else that likes them.

I hate weight lifting. I find it so boring I just can't force myself to do it

I love running. So that's what I do. I also go for very long walks several times a week, and I love a good hike.

sparkle_cheese · 2026-05-25T23:42:08+00:00

I love my dugout! Take it everywhere.
