We got underway and did a 3 night passage to head up to the Annapolis boat show. Weather made us tuck in before cape Hatteras though so we have been exploring North Carolina. I guess Blackbeard’s ship wrecked at the inlet here so they are still pulling up artefacts from it and you can see them at the local museum. Pretty cool. Back to sea tomorrow!

Yes indeed! That has also made it a bit of a process…My other half is American but I am Kiwi so registering the boat was a bit of a challenge! All done now and we have official closed on the boat. First night aboard tonight!

Trying to buy this boat has been a mission! The weather system that pushed back our haul out pushed it back by over a month. We finally got it done though and got the survey report last week. We have accepted the boat and probably close this week, all going well. Can’t wait to start moving on board!

I sent this to my doctor friend and she thought it was really cool too. She said she used to practice on pigs. Kombucha scoby is a way better option!

Wow that is so interesting!

I would call it crunchy vs crispy.

[–] Username@lemmy.nz 1 points 4 months ago

Yes this is one of the recipes I tried. Perhaps I need to make some adjustments and try again.

Interesting. Hadn’t thought of simple syrup. I love ordering crispy cauliflower bites when I am out and now that I’m thinking about it they do tend to often have a glaze.

Thanks, yeah I think maybe this is what I’m missing.

[–] Username@lemmy.nz 1 points 4 months ago

Do you have a good batter recipe for cauliflower? The one I tried didn’t work out too well.

I do not own an air fryer but I’m starting to think I may need to invest in one.

 

So far I tried making a flour based coating and frying it and I’ve tried frying it for 5 mins before putting it in the oven. Neither option was successful.

 

I was looking at my little speaker the other day and thinking to myself about how well it has done. My husband bought it for me about 10 years ago when we were just dating and had moved halfway across the world together with little money. It seemed like a big splurge at the time and we were using it to watch tv shows on our laptop without relying on the tinny laptop speakers (we didn’t have a tv). Fast forward to now and that speaker has traveled all over the place, been to the beach, been camping, been on sailing trips etc. and it still holds a charge really well and has pretty decent audio quality for its size. It even still looks good. I think ten years is pretty good for a little Bluetooth speaker, personally (maybe that's a normal amount of time?). Hopefully I can get many more years out of it. Anyway it feels strange to bring up older items and recommend them as BIFL because you never know if manufacturers have kept up their quality over the years. If these speakers are still being made with the same quality i definitely recommend them.
