    It's pretty awe-inspiring.

    I had my eye on it, but was hoping to stay away from games that were pc/computer based. Once something moves to the switch, though, I'd love to play it. Partly it's a shame because games that allow more customization on the computer don't translate well to the Switch.

    That being said, some really beautiful 'life simulation' / farming games are available on Steam for the computer.

    That's so many posts. I think that on a site I was on for over a decade I only had a couple thousand posts. It was embarrassingly small.

    It's just about figuring out what works in your life, and what doesn't. It's part of becoming older, too.

    For feeling overwhelmed, a professor I respect told me the bird-by-bird analogy and it seems to help put things in perspective.

    That's quite a cover story for his abuse. //eyeroll

    I once worked as a receptionist at a hair salon and a client came in early. About an hour and a half early, so the stylist was with another client. I gently reminded her of the appointment time, and then welcomed her to wait in the seating area with some fresh coffee. This old bag decided to whine to my boss that I wasn't "considerate of clients who come in early." I was being chewed out by the boss (who was the stylist) when the other stylists defended me.

    Who gets a rod up their ass like that? Sounds like she's related to your guy.
    Mm, nothing really worth mentioning.
    I just sort of wing it. This one time I made the red sauce so spicy that my spice-loving-partner was in tears.
    Apparently, "scorpion" is too far.

    I will probably have chicken again for dinner, or just finish the rest of the donuts I made:

    Ah, it looks like it's in the 50s here, and I realize I haven't stepped foot outside in a couple of weeks.
Posted in Does anyone want to clean my house for me? Posted 2 years ago
    I like cleaning, or maybe it's more of a compulsion that I just don't mind.
    You probably don't want to like cleaning.

    I don't have to do big cleaning events now that the house is in a decent place, but it requires maintenance cleaning.
    I guess it just depends on what I'm in the mood for. A popular dessert I make in the summer is a strawberry crumble, and I like to make fried chicken or stir-fried noodles for dinner on occasion. One of my favorite meals to make is a knock-off of the takeout from The Halal Guys. Chili is pretty common in the house, as are pancakes made from vegetables (like carrots or potatoes [latkes]) and pizza.

    Ingredients:
    - berries of choice <-- a good mix is strawberries (for how delicious they are), raspberries (for tartness), and blackberries (to add depth)
    - caster sugar <-- optional for the crumble; more sweet means more sugar, and natural sweetness is no sugar used
    - starch <-- doesn't matter what kind; corn, rice, potato, tapioca, etc.
    - oatmeal
    - brown sugar
    - flour
    - butter
    - baking dish with sides

    Directions:
    Toss the berries in enough starch to lightly coat them--this prevents liquid from pooling at the bottom of your crumble. If you want a sweeter dessert, also add in some caster sugar, otherwise you can skip this. Spread out the berries in the baking dish. For the crumble on top, mix together equal parts flour and oatmeal, with about a third as much brown sugar and butter. Ideally, you want the mixture to clump together so that you can drop bits of it on top of the berry mixture in the baking dish. If it's too sticky and wet, you might have too much butter, so just add more oatmeal/flour and vice-versa. Then bake at 350º until the crumble looks brown and cooked.

    You can enjoy this hot out of the oven, but you won't be able to taste anything for three days so hold your horses.

    I don't really measure things out because I cook often and adjust as I need. Fortune favors the brave, but sometimes it doesn't. Ice cream can cure a baking mistake so have fun.
