I haven’t made any this year, but I have in the past. My favorite flavor I’ve made is a chai ice cream (just brew the tea in the ice cream base).

It can depend on where you’re located and how deep you get into the sport. For beginner classes, in my area, they are ~$100 for 6 weeks. It gets more expensive once you need your own gear and if you choose to compete and/or take private lessons.

I think the most comparable comparison in costs are probably club hockey and club soccer.

• Walking my dog - Better awareness of my neighborhood/getting to know my neighbors. Fresh air, sunshine, and time to work through my thoughts helps me stay clear headed. Cardio is good for you.

• Fencing - both physically and mentally challenging. It is basically violently enforced meditation. Hella fun and is great stress relief. Cons - can be expensive and relatively few adults.

• Reading fiction - I enjoy getting lost in other worlds. Helps to disconnect from the internet from time to time

• Yoga - reduces random aches and pains from sitting all day at work/high impact activities. It just generally feels good afterwards.

• Curling - team sport I do with my spouse. Throwing shit and drinking/eating afterwards is nice. Good community to socialize with.

• Watching movies/tv/YouTube - Lots of great stuff out there. Easy to do too much of this one, especially youtube.

Most recently… empanadas.

But there are so many foods i hadn’t been exposed to but absolutely adore. We didn’t have much “ethnic” foods as a kid, so there’s been a lot I’ve tried as an adult and loved. Butter chicken has become a staple for me. Saag paneer. Pad see ew is another great one. Savory pies in former British colonies (I had a butter chicken pie at a takeaway in NZ that was incredible). The list goes on…

It sounds like a platform private companies can use to develop instantaneous peer-to-peer money transfer, as opposed to a true service run by the feds. Either way, the fact that it would allow someone to make a direct payment to another person’s bank account anywhere would be a huge upgrade.

I’m the opposite. I saw it as white and gold, saw a picture of it in better lighting, and now can only see it as blue and black

Doing ~20min of yoga every day I can, which works out to about 4-6 days a week. All my random aches and pains disappeared and my body feels way less stiff.

If I skip a week or so, I definitely feel noticably worse than I do when I keep it up.

Earthship homes are also an alternative that are pretty decent at remaining a stable temperature. Plus, I think they look pretty cool!

Yeah, that sounds like it would be a textural nightmare with how thick and heavy peanut butter is.

It’s very rare to eat peanut butter on its own. It’s most famous for the way it pairs with other flavors. Peanut butter and jelly (strawberry jam is a classic), peanut butter and honey, peanut butter and chocolate, or if you want something super extreme peanut butter and marshmallow fluff.

I would bet you’d like it more if it hadn’t been peanut butter only.

This is not an issue for me. I swipe back and it returns to where I left.
