It makes me sound like a child but broccoli and (cooked) cauliflower. Thing is I love other green veggies, sprouts, kale etc. even tenderstem or purple sprouting broccoli but the standard bulbous tree shaped broccoli i just hate so much. And cauliflower i will eat all day raw just please never cook it!

A UK pancake is very much that same large like a crepe but more substantial as well. Enjoyed almost exclusively on pancake day with sugar and lemon (we did blood orange juice because fancy).
Pipsterto Blahaj Lemmy Meta•We now have a pixelfed instance and a peertube instance!English7·11 days agoWas literally looking at pixelfed instances yesterday to post my crafting stuff… Was about to pull the trigger on one but now I know where to go!
To make it worse the UK has a weird “French” mustard which has nothing to do with France, its this darker, sweeter, less spicy mustard that Colman’s invented and no longer make but you can still find own brand ones in the supermarket. Actual French mustards are referred to by name.
English mustard is a thing though.
For the longest time I assumed the Midwest was a purely descriptive term based on location and not one that was defined… Finding out Ohio was in the Midwest blew my mind.
I think I’d want to do something a bit more ambitious, thats just one tiny scrap of leather and like, two stitches, unless you were thinking of some kind of embellishment to it that I’m missing.
That looks really great, love it! I’m dreading to think how long the stitching on the strap took…
At least in the UK which has a lot of common signage with the rest of Europe you normally just have a red circle sign (generally prohibitive orders) with the picture of a disallowed vehicle in. Or a blank interior for ‘no vehicles’. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/the-highway-code/traffic-signs

My krypronite… I got a cheese advent calendar with a bunch of teeny tiny jars of pickle… I have yet to find a use for them but i’m certain they will be useful.
At christmas a supermarket here had fancy pate in little tiny kilner jars, after christmas they all got reduced to like, pennies, so i bought a ton of them. Currently using them to make little chia seed desserts.

Pipsterto WomensStuff@lazysoci.al•Creative Wednesday... how have you been creative this fortnight? WOMEN ONLY COMMUNITYEnglish4·23 days agoYeah, i decided against those as when buying cheap its at least hard to make a bad lump of metal vs a more intricate tool. The manual setters are at least cheap but I was having a look at the bigger lever machines and they are more reasonably priced than I had assumed so may invest in one soon.
Well they are both in the same genus but its interesting if it can work for it.
