    • RE: Gamifying Plots

      As a side note, there are people who may not be able to form groups easily due to things like timezones or shift patterns. I personally love getting a group together to tackle problems, but being in GMT, it's difficult finding a time that suits others without staying up into the early hours of the morning.

      +1 for more time needed for solos, I guess is what I'm saying.

    • RE: Dead Celebrities 2021 Edition

      @rinel
      Feeling a little conflicted on this one. On one hand he wasn't particularly a good person all the time, while he did a lot of charity work as is expected for someone in his role, he also made comments which were racist and almost seemed to embody the "racist grandpa at dinner" sort of role.

      On the other hand he has spent his life in support of the Queen, which can't have been easy always - yes, lap of luxury and all that, but still it's not easy being in the shadow all the time.

      I think I'm sad, mostly for the Queen and her family, but not necessarily grieving.

      @chibichibi
      I might be open to storytelling Changeling. I don't know anything about the Contagion Chronicles, but a little reading never hurt me.

      Building the rooms and exits and such? Sure.

      Descing? Not so much.

      @macha said in Health and Wealth and GrownUp Stuff:

      It's another thing to FUCK UP MY GODDAMN SPREADSHEET WITHOUT A FOREWARNING.

      Pretty sure this should be illegal.

      Then again, I am like a dragon protecting my gold when it comes to my spreadsheets.

    • RE: Recipes and Shit

      Vix's vaguely personalised Lamb and Apricot Bake

      Ingredients:
      3 tablespoons of olive oil
      1 medium butternut squash, peeled, deseeded and cubed (or 250g of the pre-prepared frozen stuff because butternut squash is a bitch to peel and cube)
      500g minced lamb
      1 onion, peeled and roughly chopped
      2* garlic cloves (*honestly as much garlic as you like, I usually do like 2 heaped teaspoons of garlic paste because I am a heathen)
      2 tablespoons tomato puree
      1 can chopped tomatoes
      1 tbsp mango chutney
      1 tablespoon spice (I use cinnamon because I can't handle heat, curry powder also works)
      1 can apricots, roughly chopped (or 4-5 fresh ones, peeled and chopped, if you prefer)
      500ml milk
      Salt and pepper to taste
      Cheddar to top if you like that sort of thing

      Hardware:
      Roasting tray
      A large pot (I use a flat-bottomed wok but a giant saucepan will also do)
      A big casserole dish
      Hob/range
      Oven

      Steps:

      • Heat the oven to 190C/375F. Add 2tbsp oil to the roasting tray, toss the butternut squash in it, and add salt/pepper, roast for about 25-30 minutes
      • In the large pot/wok, add the remaining oil and fry onions for 4-5 mins until soft.
      • Add the lamb mince and cook until brown
      • Add the garlic, tomato puree and chosen spice, stir well and cook for another 2-3 minutes
      • Add the chopped tomatoes, mango chutney, apricots and milk. Stir well and turn down the heat so it simmers, stir every few minutes
      • Add the butternut squash when it is done roasting
      • Transfer the contents of the pot to the casserole dish. If you like cheese, scatter as much of that as you like on top
      • Cook in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is melty and golden and delicious

      It freezes well!

      It is a delicious meal on its own, but also works well over rice or with flatbread.

    • RE: The ADD/ADHD Thread (cont'd from Peeves)

      @rightmeow I'm really glad the meds are working for you, subject to tweaking that dosage a bit more. It's an awesome feeling, knowing that you might ACTUALLY DO the thing and not just THINK about doing the thing.
