It’s definitely a learning curve to start your plants from seed, but seeds can be gotten cheap and are easy to transport. I find beans/peas to be pretty easy to grow from seed, and their vertical growth means they don’t take up too much space.

Yep, chips are often calling my name, especially sour flavors. Lime, salt and vinegar, dill pickle, all good stuff.

Ooooh yum, that’s also an excellent “I’m being fat” meal. There’s a restaurant near me that does Korean/Mexican fusion, and their “kimchichanga” with bulgogi is amazing.

How lovely! I’ve gotten pretty good at growing vegetables, but flowers, not so much.

For me, there’s a Mexican restaurant down the road from my house that does what they call Super Fries, which are loaded with carne asada (a surprising amount for the price), cheese, sour cream, guacamole, refried beans, pico de gallo, and red and green salsa.

An absolute gut bomb, but delicious as hell.

If it’s truly tasteless and dissolves completely in water, yet can bind like eggs, that opens up a huge range of applications. Really hope they’re able to scale up production.

Really really good balsamic, the stuff that costs like $150 for a few ounces. I watched a video series about the making of it and taste tests against regular balsamic, and the desire to try it has been floating around my head.

Poland has a variety of hardiness zones, which will determine how much longer you have in your growing season. I would suggest things like brassicas (which include kale and broccoli), as they can handle temperatures a bit below freezing. But keep in mind the size of your balcony, as they can get pretty big.

If you can buy seedlings of annual herbs like parsley, dill, basil, there’s still time for a good harvest even in the colder areas of Poland. Do you have space where you can bring some pots inside?

Fair point, I have flown too close to the sun before, and used so little water that my pasta came out with undercooked clumped spots. So reduce water volume with care.

I usually use as little water as I can get away with, as the resulting pasta water is much more starchy and works better in sauces.

Huh, how odd. Not what I would have expected, but in that case, go for flavor!

Interesting, what about a version with a little bit of both, for both the taste and smell?

Last year I went bungee jumping for my birthday, and it was one of the most unique experiences of my life.

I’ve been skydiving before, but I don’t think my caveman hind brain was able to comprehend the danger. Jumping off a bridge however was at a recognizable height, so the moment I leapt, that part of my brain screamed “OH GOD WE’RE DEAD!”

I chalked it up to first time nerves, but with the second jump, same mental scream. Never felt anything like it in my life, and will probably never do it again, but I’m sure glad I tried it.

I’m strangely good at wiggling my nostrils, way better than anyone else I’ve met. No luck wiggling my ears though.

Yum, I haven’t tried chocolate sprinkles before, how’s the taste?

Heck yeah, I’ve been trying to post both here and on a couple of my communities at .world. I’ve mostly been going through my old, never-posted photos for some good OC, but think I might also start scavenging my ex-reddit account. Anything for content and to keep up the momentum!

That’s a good one, I might start doing the same.

Mental breaks. Scheduling yourself for a day of literally doing nothing.

On a smaller scale, I love working in my garden, and on days where I can’t seem to keep my mind on task, I’ll just stop trying and go pull weeds for an hour. Really zen and helps me feel better.

I love the flavor of cucumbers, but for overall versatility, I’d have to be a zucchini. Sauteed, roasted, baked into bread, zucchini just has more body and is actually filling.

[Vegan] and [Vegetarian] are quick ones that come to mind. Maybe also like the region of the cuisine? i.e. [Chinese], [Peruvian], or maybe the type of meal [Breakfast], [Appetizer].
