did something useful today and replaced the dipped beam headlight bulb in my ford focus, but sweet jesus it was more involved than it should have been. You have to unscrew and remove the entire headlamp assembly to get at it, which included very nearly threading one of the securing screws

Cripes, even trying to get the headlight cover off my Subaru was a whole thing, the space was too tight for my hand to fit into and I had to yank so hard on it I was certain it was going to crack

Get a mason jar, some decent vodka (not bottom shelf but you don't need to go overboard either) slice a bunch up and put it under your bed or in a cabinet and forget about it for 6 months.

Now we're talkin. I've got a fresh handle of Tito's that should do the trick.

I'll probably freeze some for smoothies too.

Trying to replace a bulb in my old KA, which is small even for a hatchback, was a hand shredding nightmare and according to the mechanic who replaced the KA's gearbox, that was even worse in terms of having absolutely no room

Yea, that would be my go to, but you can also just freeze them if you have freezer space.

No, that seems about normal. The tests you feel unsure about are always your best, and the ones you feel confident in are always way, way worse than you think (though not necessarily bombs).

Buy a bunch of lemonade, or make your own. Thrown lots of strawberries and ice and lemonade into a blender over and over and quaff the delicious resulting potion

Alternatively, just blend all those strawberries with a lil lemon and strain and make strawberry puree that you can freeze or throw into drinks

I’m going to try this, it sounds great. I’ve had a good strawberry balsamic vinaigrette and this just sounds like all the concentrated goodness.

PLEASE make sure it's a high quality balsamic

also one of the reasons old dishwashers worked great was they put stuff in the detergent back in the day, rinse aid containing something terrible for the environment but worked great, and now it's illegal and you can add rinse aid yourself (most people don't) but it's still not as good as the old stuff

and lastly: I think the "heat ruins my nonstick" part is a myth, because the pan gets ten times hotter on the stove... think about it you are putting it directly on an open flame or hot electric element when you cook. But, dishwasher detergent contains abrasives! And the rack rubs against the nonstick and is made of metal, so yes it'll totally gently caress up your nonstick pans, especially around the edges where they're always in contact with the tray and near the middle where the tines of the rack rub against them continuously during the cycles.

You've described macerated strawberries, and it's usually done (as mentioned below) with balsamic.
