Apparently you can even make meringue with it. Haven't tried that but I often make mayonnaise with aquafaba.

Tell that to cycling phone snatchers in London

No need to apologise, we all have brain farts sometimes. And akshully, duchess potatoes are baked and so are your balls, so there's a crossover after all. It's all looking great!

I'm curious, where's the crossover between duchess potato and falafel? Totally different recipes and methods

Chocolate fudge pudding pie... that's a dessert that just keeps on giving, I'd be so over that

Depends on time and location? I think I saw an actual lemon, not a picture or flavour, in my teens? Whereas a variety of homemade pickles were just there

My cat had her water jug/mug on the corner of the coffee table. It was pointless to try to keep her off the table, and she actually kept hydrated so...

My friend is French, his wife Portuguese, they live in England with their two children. When all together, they all speak English with each other. When the kids are with one parent, the speak that language. In the park with father, French. Baking with mother, Portuguese. Bedtime stories are in the language of the parent reading. Kids switch between languages easily and understand what to speak with whom. Effortless trilingual.

Another friend moved country with her husband and had three kids. Home language was always mother tongue, both my friends had fairly bad English. Everything outside parents is in English for the kids - media, school, anyone outside the household. Again, the switch for the kids is really easy, they are fluent and have no accent in both languages.

The temperatures are intuitive for me because Celsius is all I've known. The car going 60km/h or 100km/ h I know the difference and how it feels sitting in the car. The speed of wind in the forecast needs to be m/s to make any sense. Over 20 m/s I better tape the windows so that the storm won't break them

Bobble paws (lemmy.world)
submitted 11 months ago by Soku@lemmy.world to c/knitting@lemmy.world

I made these a good few years back. A friend commissioned these for a present for her friend, and they were highly appreciated, for what I heard.

The pattern for the ruffles came from Pinterest, the bobble pattern I charted out on a piece of paper. Forethought thumbs, no gusset. The bows are made of lingerie lace, that's stretchy. Buttons and beads were chosen from my neverending stash and sewing them on took several hours.

For bobbles like this I learned to knit backwards without flipping the work. It's slower for me and I do like 8 stitches max but still felt more efficient than flipping the work after every 5-8 stitches.
