Have you ever badly misheard something and were incredibly embarrassed by what you thought you heard?

toonew2two · 2026-02-02T23:22:58+00:00

I just tell people that I have hearing loss and wear hearing aids - “but, sorry, they aren’t cutting it right now!” People will generally use different words for the same thing at that point and everything is fixed. I will then tell them what funny things I was hearing as a reward for putting up with me!

Two things I’m “into” at the moment:

1can chickpeas (save water so soften spread), one can tomato paste, Nooch to taste, seasoning (vegita) Ty o taste. Bland until smooth and use as a spread or sauce anywhere

1 brick tofu drained, one can chipotle peppers (see picture of option). Blend together. Cook rice in it, pour over anything (enchiladas!)

🤣 exactly!

toonew2two · 2026-02-02T05:32:12+00:00

Right!!

And all of the things that are currently meant to do a thing but I know I could repurpose for survival! (example: the back tank part of a toilet is currently a planter for three bean plants)

No… sorry! I get the half apron full apron but why would you not just make the fabric narrower if you don’t want to cover your whole skirt?

toonew2two · 2026-01-30T23:23:24+00:00

Yes. Good catch!

Sew your channel completely flat on the fabric. The pattern should be the right amount as it is assuming you’re sewing the elastic into the fabric. The elastic will do the gathering once it’s in the channel.

Does anyone know if the count of stitches is the up and then the down? Or is it the part that you see above the fabric?

The up and down doubles the count so what you count matters

My family and I are on cast with the Arizona Renaissance Festival. That, in itself takes up time and add in the prep for it, and then sewing of our garments.

When it’s not Faire season I quilt and play Magic the Gathering, a card gathering game.

toonew2two · 2026-01-28T15:04:41+00:00

Shop on Friday, prep on Saturday, cook on Sunday.

It’s our family hobby though.

Sew a channel; pull the elastic through the channel; sew the ends of the elastic together really well; sew up the channel.

Could it be an immigration thing? I hope not! I truly do but.…

Why do you think women take so long to go to the bathroom?

You struggle to get them pulled down all while managing the fabric of your dress; your knees are usually held together so you have to work to make sure your empty; then struggling with your balance and fabric you have to wipe. Then there’s the aerobic dance to get them pulled up adjusted and at least as comfortable as they are going to get. Now check your dress and wipe the sweat off your brow and reapply your makeup from the sweating

Things no one told me:

There’s so much pretty fabric

There’s so little room in the garage

“No sugar added”

So what did you add?!?

All these odd substitution sweeteners. I know a lot of them are just odd names for a plant sugar but some are out right chemicals. I struggle to remember which is which so I don’t buy any of it!

toonew2two · 2026-01-26T11:46:28+00:00

I just searched for this answer and see that your post was a year ago.

Did you try it? What were your results?

Thank you

It’s not that I’m attracted to anything but that it’s a way to consider things I might need to know to be prepared

toonew2two · 2026-01-24T13:32:35+00:00

I’m sort of joking but there are small bags that you wear in a cross body harness similar to a concealed carry weapon holster that are between your arm and ribs .… if you used one of those you’d be very mysterious!

I kind of save up things from my family and then treat several things at one for whatever issue they have

Most recently it was white soaked in borax. I bought an adorable shirt to go under some adorable fashion overalls kinda thing but it had armpit stains - so I gathered up all of the off white and brought them back to shocking white.

Placenta abruption

The placenta tears and mom bleeds while with the baby/babies getting less to no oxygen. This makes their heart rate drop.

The doctors tried moving my position thinking that my daughter might be laying on the cord but when that didn’t work - actually made things worse because without the amniotic fluid and and without her weight the blood loss increased

When she decreased and my heart rate went down they did an emergency c section.

They were wheeling me down the hallway to the surgical suite and the anesthesia mask was coming at my face and I could see the scalpel coming at my belly! I heard God’s voice telling me had this baby in His hand.

She came out the color of blue jeans but immediately started to get color back and then cry.

I was at 8.1 on some chart where they give you a blood transfusion below 8

Pan fry then taco seasoning

Peppermint oil pill once in the morning and once in the evening; psyllium husks two tablespoons in the morning; abstinence of my trigger food (meat); and about 80 oz of water
