I was thinking about how I missed having an indoor thermometer that measures humidity. It’s such a small specific thing, one I’d never think of getting unless pushed to it (which I was by one particularly dry winter). But I like having one now.
What are your small, “random” or “junk drawer” type of gadgets that you actually use or like having around?
Ok ok ok, I’ll explain in further detail.
HipsterTenZero’s shitty mega pancake
Serves 1
Place 1 tablespoon of salted butter in the rice cooker and flip the switch.
Mix together ~3/4 cup of store-bought pancake mix (I like the cheap kind!) and ~1/3 cup of milk.
Dump the batter in on top of the liquefied butter.
Wait for the first cycle to be done by taking the dog out (important step: pet dog)
hit the switch for a second cycle.
Make coffee or something. Put on some pants if you haven’t already (optional).
Once the second cycle is done, poke the top of the 'cake with a fork to ensure it’s fully cooked through.
If done, rotate the rice cooker 180 degrees vertically to dispense the delicious mega-pancake. Otherwise hit it with a cheeky 3rd cycle.
Top with whatever garbage is around.
Someone mentioned slicing it up, but I just say scarf it down as-is. Who is gonna judge, eh?
