Used to use it in a professional kitchen alongside peeled orange slices to make a lovely salad look even nicer. The trick is to slice about 1mm above where the aggregate bud joins the stem at a 45 degree angle which makes them all fall apart into the little flowerlets.
Hope they work well for you 💚
Ooo just out of interest they are completely edible too (and taste amazing). The best garnish if you have access to them!
As someone currently in the throes of their second bout of covid, I can confirm it definitely still sucks and sucks hard. Throat is better today, cough is worse, sinus problems are back but no fever. I got lucky last time so let's see how the dice fall this time.
Just as a reminder to people if you are feeling ill, don't fucking come into work, please.
So. Much. Butter... And Cream (used to be one of our best selling items where I worked). Butter truly is the secret to why restaurant food tastes just so good!
I can say that long distance can be brutal, but also really really can work. I lived an 8 hour time difference from my partner for over 4 years and we just had to work out a system and timing of communication that worked for both of us. Now they're moving over here so that will probably make things easier. I hope it lasts for you both like it did for us :)
I have a rule I refer to as the pint limit.
If you are in a pub and have one pint an hour, you would generally consider that to be a good use of time. This means one hour is worth approximately the cost of your usual pint at your local pub. For me this is about £3.50.
I then divide the price of the game by this number to get the number of hours the game has to provide to make it worth it. So for example Risk of Rain 2 cost me about £21 and I have played about 280 hours, meaning that I have exceeded my pint limit of about 6 hours by nearly 274 hours. Solidly worth it!
Occasionally a game will not reach its pint limit, but will be worth it nonetheless, e.g. The Return of the Obra Dinn, but generally I find the metric exceptionally accurate to my feeling of worth for a game.
The final advantage is that this scales with the cost of living (and usually thus wages) in your area.
I think about 10% of the games I bought since 2016 have not yet reached the pint limit, which is generally pretty good going.
