The dangers of raw eggs are generally the dangers of getting eggs covered in feces from sick chickens. I only buy pasture raised eggs from small farms, which minimizes the risk of illness (although as a kid I ate plenty of raw cookie dough from regular eggs without incident soo...) This specific chicken egg is from a chicken raised on a natural pasture with at least 108 square feet of space per bird and as much time outdoors as they would like all year.

Some people just can't stand the texture though - the egg cooks some in the rice, but there is still some of that runniness for sure.

Okay, so it looks like our main character eats her egg on the side, but the cookbook recipe was for the raw egg in the rice, so I did both. And of course, miso soup. Ready to start the day!

It's from the Unofficial Ghibli Cookbook, the Thibaud Vilanova one! a picture of the page

The broth it's mentioning is just "simmer 8.5 cups of water with 10g of kombu and 40g of bonito flakes for 35 minutes, then strain"

 

When the overwhelming vulnerability of creation is too much, sometimes you just gotta have warm soup in front of a hot fire.

What was the joke?

Well the important thing is that you're here to tell me I'm wrong about what I do and don't want.

You may not have any nuance when it comes to whether or not you want to do things, I get it, kind of. A lot of people here seem to be very black and white about either you want to or you don't and really can't wrap their head around the idea that others have shades of gray and conditions that can effect whether or not they want to go.

This is a really interesting take because the majority of negative reactions to this post are "why would anyone need this just cancel you coward don't you know how to talk to people" while yours is "yes I understand the point and would want to use this if it existed, therefore it must not exist because it's bad for me" lmao

Then you'd never cancel and this would be irrelevant to you

But you do want to go out, if they do.

They talk about leaving the tags on and have a separate category for things that can be made that doesn't include plushies. I really don't think crochet plushies are something they want, and I'm not really into trying to skirt the rules with "this is TECHNICALLYYY new even though I can tell it's not on the list of things you're looking for" when it comes to hospitals haha.

I actually love this. So often I have a plan where I'm like "if you actually want to do this thing, then I'm here and happy to be there with you. But if you're not really interested but just sticking to the commitment because you're afraid my feelings will be hurt if you cancel...I promise they won't let's just cancel." But if I say this to someone, they could interpret it as "I don't want to go", which isn't true! If you want to go, I want to go. I just want to gauge your level of wanting-to-go.

Two people both wanting to cancel, forcing themselves to go to something neither of them want to be at, is truly the backbone of society.

Yeah I'm afraid that if I started selling it I'd have to do business stuff, make things when I don't feel like it, measure the time it takes me and the cost of materials to set a fair price, worry about if the patterns I'm using are commercial friendly, worry about the actual quality/sturdiness of the plushies because people have expectations when they're not getting things for free...when I'm not in a position to really need the extra money.

Hospitals are a great idea but it looks like the local ones here only accept brand-new stuff with the exception of hats. :/ I guess my friends will just have to deal with an excess of plushies lol
