And an update thing for transition stuff. I can cry about things and have emotions! That's cool and good. I've also got an updated prescription, so now it's twice a day for the estrogen. And my alcohol tolerance has dropped down, which is also good.

When I had children, both of these things happened to me. Does that mean I am no longer cis scum?

I went out for a $115/4 course dinner and got saran wrap in my main.

Other that that, it was pretty good.

I like it here tyvm :colbert:. But it used to take me like, two shots of 151 to feel tipsy and I'd be fine an hour later. Compared to now, about two shots of 80 proof moonshine, drank those about 8pm the other night. And I was still really feeling it come 11 when I called it a night for gaming. Passed out at midnight and was still feeling it then.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

Made a great tomato sauce. The butter, garlic and onion I started with was almost too good to add meatballs and tomatoes too.

Then I oversalted the linguini :qq:

I made black beans in a pressure cooker and they were practically flavorless.

I used this recipe from serious eats. I'm sure a pressure cooker isn't the best way to get good beans but, is there something I could have done in following that recipe that hosed it up?

E: It was an electric pressure cooker.

Any time you make a thing in the pressure cooker, the flavours will bland out really easily. It’s why when we do daal tarka, you add the spices after pulling the cooked lentils/beans from the cooker. All you needed to do is fry some spices in hot fat, and then dump that atop the cooked beans.

The first time I made gravy, the plastic salt grind broke in my hand and dumped a handful of salt crystals in my caramelized tomatoes. I whisked most of it out, but it was still too salty.

HOW? I dump vast quantities of salt into my pasta water, and I’ve literally never oversalted it. Are you hypersensitive to salt, or did you try to make pasta in a supersaturated solution?

Maybe he salted it while finishing it in the pan? Maybe he likes to retain some pasta water to mix with the sauce and olive oil and there was too much salt in that? The possibilities.

I had my first real super proud moment that made me feel like a cook after four and a half years. I bought some prickly pears/nopales/tuna for $1/lb at my grocery store explicitly because they were cheap, and despite never seeing or tasting one before. Tonight I improvised after tasting a bit of one and made a reduction to go over pork chops. And it tasted amazing

Sometimes it's the little victories that make me the happiest :shobon:

In all seriousness, one of my favorite parts of cooking as a hobby is trying to make something delicious with whatever I can find for cheap.

Same, this and whatever is blowing up in the garden at a given time. Some weeks it's like "ok I have 8 lbs of zucchini and green beans, what do" and others it's "I have a ton of cherry tomatoes and peas" etc.

I’m assuming this is hyperbolic, but I had a great green bean and zucchini meze that was lightly pickled with a bunch of fresh dill & other herbs

Dumped a random quantity of kosher salt in the water while it was coming up to boil and then the noodles tasted salty even though I rinsed them off.

I've never had it happen before either.
