Today in Muppet sibling shenanigans

Sibling: Trying to hold onto a thought long enough to say it in an ADHD household is a bit like trying to walk a straight line during the invasion of normandy.

Me: gif of an unused woman holding up a sign of a cranky emoji

sibling: Personally attacked huh?

Today in #yearOfPudding (aka, pudding as coing mechanism) number 7ish Berry vanilla pudding My place smells delicious. The pudding is tasty. And what I’ve learned is that if you use enough berries, it thickens significantly faster than usual.

So the ube pudding got put off a few days for reasons. It is tasty! I like the purple sweet potato pudding better, and I like its color better too. BUT. I have three bowls of purple pudding in my fridge now that are quite tasty. #YearOfPudding number five Maybe?

Okay, so there’s the anatomy I feel strongest when I make that hand position. You can see both the anatomical drawing and my hand with stickers on it. More detail in the alt text.

Anatomical drawing of the Acu point LI3, located right next to the knuckle where the hand becomes the pointer finger. Just proximal (closer to the wrist than the finger tip) to the joint (the metacarpophalangeal joint).

Anatomical drawing of the Acu point LI4, located midway down the metacarpal bone of the pointer finger. Where the flesh squishes up when you squeeze your thumb and forefinger together

My hand with red and blue smile stickers on the previous two points. The blue one is li4. The red one is li3.

Genuinely good gluten free product alert: GoNanas Fudge Brownie Banana Bread mix. No weird textures or flavors, probably because the flour used is oat flour. My only complaint is that the banana flavor is pretty mild but the rest of the flavor and the texture are great. Recommended!

Okay I think this should tag both of you who asked? You’ll note that the ones I wrote are verbose AF but YOULL LEARN STUFF whereas the one from my friend looks like it was written by a sane person.

Potato bread

Potato Bread Recipe for the Bread Machine

1 1/2 cups warm milk
4 TBSPS of soft butter (I nuke it 30-60 seconds to get a partial melt)
½ cup potato flakes (30 g)
3 ½ grams cups of all-purpose flour (420 g)
2 TBSPS sugar
1 ¼ tsps. salt
1 ½ tsps. Quick rise yeast

Add in whatever order your machine like. Mine likes it to go in this order:

Liquids
Salt, sugar
Fat
Flour and add ins
Yeast

Settings:
Size: 1.5lbs
Color: I like light but do as you will
Just cook on regular cycle

I got fancy once and did this on the dough cycle, dumped it out on my (lightly floured) cutting board, divided it into 8 pieces, rounded them into rolls, and put them in a Dutch oven. Baked 375° for 40 min. Worked great and not actually a lot of trouble. I’ll be doing that a lot more often. It keeps better (stays fresher) in rolls than in a loaf that gets cut into.

Rich Bread machine recipe

My current favorite, loosely based king Arthur’s English muffin bread, rich like brioche but tang like English muffin

Add to machine in this order
1/4c boiled water
1 tsp cider vinegar
1c milk
1/2 TBSP sugar
1/2 TBSP salt
4 TBSP (1/2 stick) mostly melted butter (stick in microwave 30-60s)
420g (3&1/2cup) flour (all purpose)
1/2 TBSP yeast

Machine settings: 1.5lb loaf, light color

After 5 min, look at dough ball and adjust water and flour if needed, then restart machine, check again in 5 min.

Key to determining if too wet or too dry: you want it to be vaguely tacky but not STICKY. if Sticky (leaves batter on your finger when you poke it) or kind of sticks like batter on the bottom of the machine = too wet, add a spoonful of flour and start the cycle over. If not sticky at all or the ball has a mini ball circling along side it, it’s too dry. Add a tbsp of water and start the cycle over.

BONUS TECHNIQUE: Half way through the final rise (About 1.5 hours after starting on my machine, you can check your manual to figure out when to do it on yours) carefully pull the dough to the side and reach under the dough to pull out the paddle and minimize bottom hole. It will look like it completely deflates. Don’t worry, it’ll come back.

After machine is done, pull out basket with POTHOLDER and turn out bread onto a rack for cooling. Let cool at least 20 min before slicing.

Bread Machine Cinnamon Raisin Bread, sent from a friend

Size 2 Lb. Loaf (I set my mine to 1.5 and it worked fine)

Ingredients:
• 1 cup water
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 3 cups bread flour (I used 360 g regular AP flour)
• 3 tablespoons sugar
• 1 ½/ teaspoons salt
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 2 ½ teaspoons bread machine yeast (I used 1.5 by mistake and liked it that way)
• 1 cup raisins (I soak raisins before making the bread.)

Directions:
1. Place ingredients into the bread machine in order listed. Original recipe calls for raisins to be added when the bread machine beeps to add ingredients, but raisins just end up on outside, not in bread, so I add at the beginning.
2. Program bread machine using the "sweet" bread setting
3. When baking is complete, remove from pan and place on cooling rack. Let cool for 2-3 hours.

holy cow 10¢ off a $6.85 item does not qualify as “on sale”. 10¢ off anything over a dollar does not qualify. I understand that items fluctuate in price from week to week. But listing those items in the ON SALE tab is actively offensive. And it’s not just the one thing. (But heres the thing)

As we descend into The Holiday Season, please remember that it actually is offensive to wish somebody "Happy Holidays" right now.
Because just look around, no one is happy. Try these Dystopia Approved alternatives instead:

• Tolerable Holidays!
• I hope your work schedule is merciful!

I just used resistbot to send this letter. Thank you Courtney, for your excellent suggestion. I didn’t publish it just for people to co-sign because mine is clearly personal. But please feel free to lift as much or as little language as you like.

I am sorry and distraught to have to ask this, but please, please do not confirm RFK to any cabinet position. The state of public health is already fraught in our country and his positions on vaccines alone, let alone other issues, are horrifying. We just went through one pandemic. The last thing we need is another one that could be so easily prevented.

As a healthcare practitioner and as a long covid survivor, I am begging you. Do not let this walking public health disaster into power. I don't want to see polio and measles come back.
Ideally, maybe have a quiet word with your Republican colleagues about this too? Didn't enough people die four years ago?
