Meal planning ideas
  • We keep a list of possible meals. Just favourites we've gathered over time. Once a week we sit down as a family and work out a series of meals for the upcoming week. Then it's simple to work out what we need to get vs what we have already and do a shopping list on a whiteboard we keep for the purpose. Easy enough to mark items for purchase later (eg buy fresh closer to when we need them), or add staples as we run out. Whoever is doing the shopping just copies down what's on the board before they go.

    Takes maybe an hour to do as a family, gets everyone involved in and involves the kids in family decision making.

  • Are there any household gadgets you found unexpectedly useful after you'd gotten them?
  • When we built this house we specified power outlets in each toilet for exactly this reason. The low light levels from the motion sensor lamps we have don't sear your eyeballs when you get up in the middle of the night to pee.

  • I am choosing to interpret the instructions as dumping a full bottle of pancake mix into the rice cooker, cook twice, then tip out the resulting pancake-cake and slice it up thinly like a pressed ham. I guess slice extra thinly for crepes?

  • China’s Carbon Emissions Are Set to Decline Years Earlier Than Expected | Rollout of 300GW of new wind and solar power last year was for the first time enough to cover its new electricity demand
  • IIRC, the Mandarin for "four" sounds similar to "death", so it is considered unlucky/inauspicious. I think OP was subtly suggesting that the CCP would rather do something to avoid the consequences of climate change than not. Those consequences including social upheaval, resulting in an unhappy populace, resulting in their possible removal from power.

  • The four houses dads belong to.
  • I always lean towards Bosch where possible, mainly because of their charitable work. The founder set things up so that it's perpetually funded from the company profits. That just appeals to me as the tiebreaker when deciding between a bunch of similarly priced tools that will otherwise do the job well enough.

    That said, I tend to go for corded options where practical. I have some corded tools that I've owned for over thirty years now that still get occasional use. Battery tools are convenient for their portability, but they do have a limit to their useful life.

  • Bad strategy choice. Looked like he was going for a one stop. He was the last to pit for new tyres after a long first stint. Not sure if his switch to softs at the end was an attempt to salvage something, but by then the damage was done.

  • I'd heard that kneading "activates the gluten", but tbh chemistry was never my strong suit so I have no idea what that means in the real world. I suspect kneading time relates to the level of activation or resulting gluten level, or perhaps even the speed at which the activation occurs. I couldn't even tell you what gluten does in terms of flavour or chewiness or whatever.

    I've just never found the right eli5 for me about it. Perhaps split a batch, knead one half and do a comparison taste test?
