Is there a newer version of this chart? It's dated from 2018, and things have certainly changed since then.

Oh interesting, I'll have to give rinsing off the cellulose a shot.

Onomatopoeia also mentioned that it's a very dry parmesan, so I'm thinking round two will involve reducing the amount of cellulose, mixing the cheese with a bit of extra fat, and then spreading thinly to bake. Fingers crossed!

Excellent search suggestion, that material looks identical to the cherry exterior! The inside has a plastic ball with a little bead that rattles and the stem is just a glued on bit of string.

I do wonder what it is about this toy that makes it the one for her. She'll come when she hears the rattle, but still chases crushed cherries that no longer make noise, and I don't think the stem matters too much, so it must be that crinoline material in a ball shape. I might buy some and see if I could make new toys she'd like. Thank you!

I did GATE (Gifted and Talented Education) from fourth through eighth grade and went with an AP-heavy high school (graduated in 2010) instead of an IB school in the district, and I'd say it left similar scars.

There were aspects that I think were beneficial, such as specialized math tutoring and more hands-on projects, but god the pressure and workload was truly damaging at such a young age. Add undiagnosed ADHD, and you've got an 11 year old self-harming as a method to stay focused during the hours and hours of daily homework.

That eclipse photo is absolutely stupendous, worthy of its own post! Are those brighter trio of stars planets?

I'm pretty excited for this, I'm rarely disappointed by anything produced by A24, and I'm especially a fan of their horror and horror-adjacent films. Also pretty cool that it's directed by the kid who made the first Backrooms short, can't imagine directing a film while only 20 years old.

I had been thinking of doing avocado as a fatty pate equivalent, but the last one I had ended up being too far gone :(

A mushroom pate is a great idea, I'll have to try that.

I patted the slices dry post-marinade, then seared them in a pan in batches. At the end I stuffed all the seared slices in the pan and drizzled on the leftover marinade, which cooked into a light glaze.

Oh disagree, I loooove a gelatin heavy stock. But I do typically use my stock to add a little boost to dishes rather than as a stand alone flavor, so different priorities there.
