A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

It depends how much I am making. A pint or a quart. I typically only make one or two servings at a time. I mostly eat it on salad, or with cucumbers and tomatoes.

It cooks quickly, so I only add very hot or boiling water (if I am using boiling water, I ensure the jar is preheated to avoid cracking) to the jar and let the residual heat cook it.
