Recently I’ve been dabbing into visible mending and Sashiko(Japanese visible mending).

In the arms of my husband. Or him in my arms. Or just being in the same room with him and each one doing whatever.
Physically: I like my feet 😂 They don’t seem to age and don’t fluctuate with my weight. And they get me in lots of places!
Personality trait: I like to learn new things. I hope I get to have this until I die.
Yeah, I don’t wash my knives and pans/pots in the dishwasher, only plates, glasses, cutlery. But yes, that could be an option for whoever usually washes everything in there. In that case, the advice is to get everything in the dishwasher the moment you finish using it.
Wash dishes and utensils while cooking. This way, ar the end, you don’t have a big pile of stuff to clean.
As RepleteLocum said, yes, some business casual. They can be as comfy as a jogging pants, but look better. I don’t know if you are a man or a woman, if you are a man, there are trousers that have a sobre cur, but are made of cotton or a blend, or even wool for winter. If you are a woman, similar trousers can be found, with a cut made for women. As a woman, what I use a lot is a comfy dress with leggings underneath, thinner cotton when warmer, thermo leggins in winter.
It’s so cute! I am always fascinated with the artists that work digitally. I tried it a little, but I find it quite difficult and not natural for me at all. It involves too much of the brain. I rather throw paint on the canvas and let my hands guide me. How many hours do you put into a finished drawing?
I don’t wear jeans( too cold in winter, too warm in summer), but I know many people do. So thank you for the post!
Stay strong and united! I agree that many more people know English than Latin.
I don’t have a favourite, but it is important to me to try out new things and invent and tweak recipes. It is all about keeping it new and interesting. Right now I am in a phase of learning to cook authentic Chinese (some of the dishes, the Chinese gastronomy is impossible to learn completely), we like to eat it and I want to know how to do it. I am even watching Chinese cooks without English translation and hope to guess what the ingredients are. 😂Or at least techniques.
I like to bake sourdough bread, we never buy bread anymore. Unless I am sick and cannot be bothered to do it. I like to bake cakes, but we don’t eat sweets generally, so it is not very often. I did fancy cakes in the past too, with fondant flowers and all that. Now I focus more on taste.
My soups are pretty awesome. We do eat a lot of soups, so I do get to experiment.
We do like to eat and I do like to feed people. Gatherings with friends always mean a lot of food. I am famous for offering too much food. But I always say that it is good to have leftovers, so you are set for a few days. I also give away food to the guests if they want. If we are invited to someone’s house, I always bring something baked.
I am lucky to have found my husband that loves eating more than I do(and I love cooking more than he does). It is such a treat to see him enjoy my food. If we stay apart a few days or weeks, I usually don’t bother to cook too much. I make a big pot of soup, some stew or something, and eat a whole week of those and slightly tweak the seasonings or pairings so that it does not get boring.
That was a long story…I can talk about food for hours.
Well, my everyday creative outlet is cooking. Today I just summed up ingredients to make some Chinese style noodles with some veggies, Spanish jamón, sesame paste, lots of sauces and spices. My husband was thrilled. I had a migraine, so for me it was more just stopping the hunger.
But cooking is the easiest way for me to be creative in any state I am in. To paint, sew or other things, I need a good rested body and good mood.
I know there is one for ceramic, I don’t know if it is the same name. The one I am learning is to repair clothes. But I do have the one you mention in the back of my mind to one day learn. I also like the idea, and I have a wine glass that broke its leg. I don’t know if it only works for ceramics, or can work with glass. I will pass that bridge when the time comes.
