Both of those should, for two reasons.

First, putting something on the cart shows library staff and administration that said item is something at least one patron is interested in. This can influence which items are weeded from the collection, and it can also influence what new items are purchased.

!!! The knit cast on is the one I originally learned to use (I'm stupidly excited to talk about this) and it's definitely my second favorite cast on. The cable cast on is super similar to the knit cast on with the exception of inserting the needle Between Stitches instead of Into The Stitch. I've found when I work the cable cast on my co row comes out tighter and more orderly than when I use the knit cast on, and ends up perfectly mirroring my bind off (with the specification that I need to concentrate on keeping loose tension with my cast on or it will be Way Too Tight To Use). Like the knit cast on is super stretchy but the cable cast on is super tidy and both are great so I choose which one to use based on the project I'm working.

My favorite shoes are my concert heels- they’re Clark’s, and are leather with a 3in chunky-ish heel. They’re lace up ankle boots I’d say? When you’re standing on a stage that’s usually squished into a church for 2.5-3+ hours, and holding a 3-5 pound book away from your body while also maintaining perfect singing posture and projecting properly and trying to make all of that look easy and breezy your feet are SO important. So they’re my mvp’s. I can look tall and pretty in my gowns and also not destroy my feet/knees while doing a concert program for 3-5 performances. And the compliments I get on them are a plus as well 🤗

Hmmm for spices other than the staples salt/pepper/garlic I love me some paprika!! I usually dash that into whatever I’m working on. I also can’t say no to a little pinch of Cayenne, and lately with my stomach issues I’ve had to cut back so I’ve really been loving the Za’atar spice blend that Penzey Spices sells! When I have to go to my basic rice/fried egg meals to stop an acide reflux attack I’ll mix that in and it makes it SO much easier to eat lol.

Hi

I love food and I feed a LOT of people, some of whom are gluten-free like I am, but most of whom are not.

I have learned how to adapt most recipes to be gluten-free.  For instance, last year I made my own take on green bean casserole by using fresh mushrooms, sauteeing them, making a gravy with gf flour, mixing it with the green beans, and topping it with gluten-free fried onions.

So if I see a recipe that intrigues me and I think will taste good, I queue it for reblog as recipe/reference.  If we decide to make it, I’ll either make it entirely gluten free, or make it to the point where a glutinous ingredient will be added.  Then I set aside a small portion for myself and finish that part out with a gluten-free ingredient substitute (for instance rice or GF pasta instead of pasta), completing the rest of the recipe for the rest of the family.  This is the way I do muffins now, too.

Hi @yarnings!

What an interesting question - and in a word, no. She’s wearing her dress (which Black Jack Randall and Dougal’s men and Jamie think is her shift) and her brown loafers. That’s it. 

Consider how vulnerable she is - not just in terms of the weather, but in terms of how she is so utterly unprepared for her new environment. Randall assumes she is a whore because of how she’s dressed. So does Dougal and his men. Immediately they begin making assumptions about her, about her character, about her capabilities.
