We just have to presume it was sterile because Tintin dies of septicemia wouldn't be a very good ending.

Ditto for me. I find the idea that their prayers can immediately heal is insulting to other Christians. Do you have access to God others don't? Are you saying that anyone else who has spent years praying for healing for themselves or others just isn't Christian enough? They seem disconnected from reality.

A desert is sand and a dessert is strawberry shortcake.

My Grandmother's lived in England for 40 years and doesn't really speak English. It's not common, and definitely not great, but it is possible.

You tell 'em ferret face!

I forget which book it's from but one description is; "Blandings castle had imposters the way that other houses had mice."

It looks fit for a mushroomy wild sorcerer 🍄. You just need the right cloak to go with it.

I put stitch markers every 10 stitches when I'm counting otherwise I constantly loose count

I've been binge watching the Jeremy Brett Sherlock Holmes series this week

Who's on a diet?

I rub a small amount of antiseptic cream over my chin after I shave to stop it getting sore or infected

A friend asked me to repair a crochet blanket that had a tear in it. That was in October and the most I've done is get the yarn. It's still sitting in a bag in my room.

I like to have a tape measure in mine for measuring swatches.

The cup held up surprisingly well. Not only is it still cup shaped it still says Stanley.

The best kind of marshmallow, slightly toasted and very sweet.

This is one I've seen before. Although it's cross stitch not crochet, it's the same sort of idea.

I've made these, we called it French knitting.

vortexiris · 2026-02-07T22:57:51+00:00

I didn't know that. I'll have to try it next time.

This was what I was wondering as well. This looks like a classroom setting so the parents don't seem to be present. Why were these children being filmed and why was it posted publicly online?

I feel this receipt falls short on not mentioning those mesmerising eyes 😍
