Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.

RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

I’m having a can of chili beans with an egg and some shredded cheese mixed in while it was heating up.

Update, as I just prepared dinner for today:

A tarte Tatin.

Tarte Tatin. Or like my folks call it, "tatatã". I'm following Chef John's recipe, with a homemade crust:

pie crust recipe250g flour
50g sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
125g butter
1 egg yolk
eyeballed amount of ice cold water

  1. Mix the powders.
  2. Add butter, in small pieces. Then use a spatula to work them into the flour mix, until the mix is a bunch of small crumbles.
  3. Whisk the egg yolk with some of the ice cold water. Add it to the mix. Then add just a bit of water each time, until the dough is barely able to stick to itself.
  4. Put dough in the fridge, wait 30min. Then roll the dough out, using the pie pan as a cutter.
