Cookies as Payment

A Poets Love

Inspired by rupi kaur poem:

i'd be lying if i said  you make me speechless the truth is you make my tongue so weak it forgets  what language to speak in  - by rupi kaur (milk and honey - page 61)

Series Masterlist - Main Masterlist

You didn’t expect it. Truth be told, you’re positive he didn’t plan it either. There’s so much you didn’t expect to happen between you and your neighbour, and knowing how soft his lips are was definitely not on your bingo card.   

The house smells divine, a tantalising blend of vanilla and chocolate filling the air, the sweet scent mixing with the smooth jazz playing from the record player. The atmosphere is cosy and welcoming, blending all the perfect ingredients for an afternoon with Joel as he works outside on another one of your projects.

He walks through the kitchen door, his nose leading him to you while you pull the slightly browned cookies from the oven. Your back is to him as you place the tray on the counter to continue cooking as they cool.

“They smell amazing.” Joel hums as he reaches over you for one. 

“They’re not ready yet, they’re still cooking as they cool.” You swat his hand away with the oven mitt, scolding him for almost touching them.

“But they smell too good.” 

You softly shove him as his hand reaches for the cookies again. You turn to face him then, arms crossed over your chest as you lean against the counter. His wired headphones dangle over his shoulders, blending into his plain white tee, his jacket discarded in the early afternoon from the Texas heat.

“I could smell ‘em from all the way outside, got me droolin’ out there.” He huffs a soft laugh as he brings his hands up in false defence, moving back from the cookies. “I’ve been tellin’ ya to start sellin’ them, make a fortune.” He points at you then before pushing himself to sit on the unused side of the counter. 

You open your mouth to say something but shrug instead, your hands focusing on the small fabric strands at your sleeves. He’s mentioned this a few times, every time he tries something you cook he ends up showering you with compliments. It’s sweet, how much he likes your baking and cooking and you have considered selling what you make but the idea terrifies you. Having someone pay for what you make, you’d rather just gift them to friends and family.

The first time you cooked for him, he almost begged you to help him cook for Sarah’s birthday the following week. You didn’t believe him when he told you he was a terrible cook. He ended up cooking for you that night to prove you wrong and after he made you spaghetti, you thought it would be better if he just stuck to prepping while you did the rest of the work for Sarah’s birthday dinner. You didn’t think someone could mess up spaghetti that badly, you were proven very wrong.

It’s been a few months since you moved in next door to Joel and it took him no longer than a week to start offering help in renovating. Took two weeks before he started coming over without the excuse of helping out and just wanting to hang out. 

It’s been nice, the constant company that doesn’t feel like you’re suffocating your own social battery. It’s the easy, effortless conversations that instead fill your social battery instead of draining it like others tend to do. There have been nights where nothing is said for hours, each just bathing in each other's company as you each do your own little hobbies, not demanding attention. 

There’s been times where you’re so stuck in your book you forget Joel is sitting across the room, tools in his hands as he carves away at another design. It’s not until he walks over to show you that you get the fright of your life, forgetting that you’re not alone.  

You fall into another easy conversation as Joel impatiently waits for the cookies to be ready. He updates you on the bench he’s building for your patio, and you get lost in how passionate he becomes when he talks about his job. His hands start moving the more he talks, the corner of his mouth twitching as he explains how he overcame something when it wasn’t quite working the way he wanted it to. 

You could listen to him for hours. You have listened to him for hours. 

You offered to pay him of course, but he said a batch of cookies was more than enough payment.

You make him coffee as he talks, already knowing how he likes it due to the amount of times he’s ended up over at your house in the mornings while his daughter Sarah had a house full of teenage girls over. He’d stumble over half awake and plant his face on the counter as he waits for the coffee to brew, his hair a mess and clothes crumbled. Hard to sleep when they stay up all night fuckin’ laughin and playing games. As much as he complains about it, you know he loves that his daughter ended up with a nice group of friends, even if they keep him up all night. 

You pour his coffee and he takes it as he mentions he’s almost finished outside. He’s rambling now and you’re half listening as you place a few cookies on a plate. His eyes light up and he shuts up as you turn back around with the cookies. This time you don’t swat his hand away as he takes one. 

His eyes close as he takes a bite and you smile, knowing that you made him happy. “So fuckin good.” he mumbles with a mouth full. 

You’re standing in front of him when he opens his eyes, and you can’t seem to read his face as you smile up at him. His eyes seep into you and it lingers on your skin as his eyes flicker down to your lips. The room goes quiet besides the music in the background. 

And then he puts his coffee down along with the cookie, his hands reaching for the sleeves of your dress. Your heart is in your throat by the time he pulls you between his thighs, one hand on your wrist while the other rests at the back of your neck. 

Your smile is gone, eyes wide as his own burn into yours. Then his hand on your neck ever so slowly pulls you in, giving you time to move away. You don’t. 

The first press of his lips on yours steals the air from your lungs and leaves you completely breathless, completely entranced by the sensation of his touch. Your muscles loosen, your mind clears, and any sense of tension in your body disappears. You feel like putty in his hands, every ounce of your trust and affection poured into this single moment. He could do anything he wishes, and you would simply allow it. 

His lips are soft and comforting, the stubble a welcomed contrast as they move over yours again and again. There's a sweet and sensual feeling in the air, the connection between you both being amplified with every kiss.     

His hand trails up the back of your neck and into your hair, his fingers lacing themselves through the strands and pulling a deep sigh from you. The tender, intimate touch is causing you to melt, your body and mind slowly responding to his touch. The feel of his hand in your hair is both soothing and stimulating, drawing out a shiver from you.

He pulls away all too soon, leaving you wanting more. He holds you close, his warm breath fanning over your face as he looks into your eyes. You can see the smile slowly settling on his face as he sees your gaze, the longer he looks down at you the more his smile seems to grow. 

“I think you taste better.” He confesses in a whisper, his hand leaves your wrist and settles at the small of your back. 

You try to speak, but the words keep failing to escape your lips. You want to say so much, but there are so many thoughts and feelings racing through your mind that you can't translate them into words. It makes your tongue tired as it struggles to say how you feel, as if your feelings have completely filled your brain and left it with nothing left to speak.

At your lack of response, Joel's smile widens and his lips move down to kiss you once again, this time with even more tenderness and affection. The touch of his lips on yours is soft and gentle, sending an intoxicating sense of joy and comfort that sweeps through you. As his lips move over yours, brushing over them in a sweet and sensual way, you can feel yourself falling further into his arms.

And you think that maybe, you like the taste of your cookies better on his lips as he kisses you. The lingering flavours of vanilla and chocolate seem to blend perfectly with his mouth, as if designed to perfectly complement each other.

Notes

little thank you to @janaispunk for tagging me in the pinterest moodboard game and therefore making me sit on pinterest for an hour looking at cookies to bake and then write this. Thinking of making this a small series. Just small scenes losely based around rupi kaur poety as I read through their books.

"In the far western desert of Texas, a striking 3D-printed hotel with Swedish style will take shape over the coming years to present both the beauty and savings of 3D printing to the country and the world.

The architecture is handled by Swedish design architect Bjarke Ingels, while the printers will be supplied by Austin-based 3D printing company ICON, that [has] really taken the technology to the next level with 3D-printed batteries and whole neighborhoods besides.

The two are teaming up to transform the El Cosmico hotel/campground in Marfa, Texas, into a 62-acre remote hotel with an infinity pool, art exhibition hall, outdoor bathhouse, and outdoor kitchen, all designed as an homage to both the desert surroundings and the cosmic show on display in the night sky above.

The local West Texas earth is being added to the 3D printing cement mixture to ensure the luxury cabins blend in with their surroundings.

“The promise of 3D printing is that the printer doesn’t care how complex the design is, if it uses organic curvature, dome-like shapes, or hyperbolic paraboloids,” Ingels, an early investor in Icon and a frequent design collaborator on its 3D-printed projects, told AD.

“All it cares about is how long it takes to print and how much material [it is] going to deploy, so you can make a square box or a beautiful domed house at the same cost.”

That cost can be around 30% less than traditional methods, as well as 350% stronger depending on the size and scope of the project.

The hotel rooms will all feature skylights to allow unobstructed viewing of the night sky, and expansive views of the Davis Mountains. Just next door is Big Bend National Park, one of the largest in the Lower 48, and a paradise of desert exploration.

El Cosmico “2.0.” is predicted to begin construction in 2024."

Texas Epoxy and Garage Flooring: Transforming Houston Spaces with Durability and Style

Houston homeowners and businesses are constantly seeking innovative ways to improve the functionality and appearance of their spaces. One trend that has gained significant popularity is epoxy and garage flooring. Offering a combination of durability, aesthetic appeal, and low maintenance, epoxy flooring has become a top choice for garages, workshops, and commercial spaces throughout Houston.

Why Choose Epoxy Flooring?

Epoxy flooring is a versatile solution that combines strength and style. This type of flooring involves applying a resin-based coating to a prepared concrete surface, creating a seamless, high-gloss finish that enhances the floor’s durability and visual appeal. Here are the key benefits of epoxy flooring:

Exceptional Durability Houston’s diverse climate, ranging from hot, humid summers to cooler winters, can be tough on standard flooring materials. Epoxy flooring, however, is highly resistant to wear and tear, chemicals, and moisture, making it ideal for garages, warehouses, and other high-traffic areas.

Easy Maintenance Epoxy’s smooth and non-porous surface makes cleaning effortless. Spills, stains, and dirt can be quickly wiped away, making it perfect for spaces prone to grease, oil, or dust accumulation.

Customizable Designs Epoxy flooring offers endless design possibilities. From solid colors to metallic finishes and decorative flakes, homeowners and business owners can create a customized look that aligns with their aesthetic preferences.

Cost-Effective Longevity Compared to other flooring options, epoxy is a cost-effective solution that lasts for years with minimal upkeep. Its durability reduces the need for frequent repairs or replacements, saving money in the long run.

Garage Flooring: Beyond Basic Functionality

Garages are no longer viewed solely as utilitarian spaces. In Houston, homeowners are transforming their garages into multifunctional areas, from home gyms to entertainment hubs. Garage flooring plays a crucial role in this transformation. Epoxy coatings not only protect the concrete from cracking and staining but also add a sleek, polished look that elevates the overall ambiance of the space.

Epoxy Flooring Applications in Houston

While garages are a common application, epoxy flooring is suitable for various residential, commercial, and industrial uses:

Commercial Spaces: Retail stores, showrooms, and offices benefit from epoxy’s professional appearance and durability.

Industrial Facilities: Manufacturing plants, warehouses, and factories require flooring that withstands heavy machinery and chemicals.

Home Interiors: Beyond garages, epoxy can be used in basements, kitchens, and patios for a modern and cohesive look.

Finding the Right Flooring Professionals in Houston

Choosing a reputable contractor is crucial for a successful epoxy flooring project. In Houston, several experienced companies specialize in installing Texas-grade epoxy and garage flooring tailored to the region’s unique demands. A professional installer ensures proper surface preparation, high-quality materials, and expert application, resulting in a long-lasting, flawless finish.

Maintaining Your Epoxy Floors

While epoxy is low-maintenance, proper care extends its lifespan:

Regular Cleaning: Sweep and mop to remove dust and debris.

Avoid Abrasive Cleaners: Use gentle cleaning solutions to maintain the glossy finish.

Inspect for Damage: Promptly address any chips or cracks to prevent further wear.

On the Health Benefits of Swimming  

Thinking of looking for a swimming pool company in Houston to outfit your home with a custom pool?

Well, on top of the fact that a pool can increase your home’s overall entertainment space, add resale value to your home, and furnish you with endless opportunities for recreation with friends and loved ones, swimming is great for your health, too.

Here are just a few of the ways that swimming supports overall health.

Support Attaining Your Weight Loss Goals

Swimming is a calorie burner. An average-sized person burns close to 500 calories swimming for an hour at a leisurely pace. Swim at a more vigorous pace, and that figure bumps up to 700, or more. It is a whole-body workout that burns calories much more efficiently and quickly than many other pursuits.

Tone and Strengthen Muscles

Swimming works your whole body, and utilizes both large and small muscle groups. It can strengthen and tone muscles, and build endurance and stamina, too. Moreover, there are many different styles and strokes you can try that focus on different muscle groups, such as sidestroke and backstroke, which target different muscle groups.

Improve Cardiovascular Health

Swimming doesn’t just tone your skeletal muscles. It gives your heart and lungs a real workout too, increasing lung capacity, circulation, and importantly, strengthening the heart. Some studies have shown that swimming not only improves cardiovascular health, but that it can also help with blood pressure and blood sugar regulation. The benefits to the respiratory system may be able to help people with asthma, too.

Improve Flexibility

Since swimming works out your entire body, it can help improve flexibility, too, which is perhaps the most often-overlooked component of physical fitness, despite the fact that it supports the others.

It’s Low Impact

Swimming is a low-impact activity, which means it doesn’t place a lot of strain on your muscles, bones and joints, even though it provides excellent resistance. This helps prevent inflammation of the joints and tendons, and it makes swimming safer, too. It just so happens that swimming is one of the few physical activities that’s relatively safe during pregnancy.

Manage Stress

There are studies that suggest swimming can help individuals manage feelings of stress. In one of them, only about 8% of a group of swimmers indicated feelings of stress and depression after swimming, whereas previously nearly 44% had - so swimming may not just help with chronic, but with acute stress. Swimming has also been demonstrated to boost and uplift the mood.

Improved Sleep

As many as 50% of older adults experience some form of insomnia, and the number may be as high as 40% among younger adults, too. Fortunately, swimming may be able to help relax you and help you get better sleep. It’s also one of the few physical activities that is suitable for basically all age groups - so nearly anyone can reap the benefits of better sleep through swimming.

Work with a Swimming Pool Company in Houston

Thinking about adding a pool to your home? If you’re in Texas, in the Houston area, you may be in luck.

Get in touch with Ocean Blue Pools, who for nearly 30 years has served as a trusted swimming pool company in Houston (while also serving the surrounding areas).

Ocean Blue Pools uses the latest technology to design custom pools, patios, landscaping and backyard kitchen, and then brings those visions to life.

A Step-by-Step Guide to Kitchen Cabinet Installation

Installing new kitchen cabinet can dramatically transform your cooking space, adding both style and functionality. While you might consider hiring professionals from a kitchen cabinet company like Cabinet IQ McKinney, understanding the installation process can help you make informed decisions. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you through the kitchen cabinet installation process.

Step 1: Prepare Your Space

Before diving into the installation, it’s crucial to prepare your kitchen. Remove any old cabinets, countertops, and appliances that may obstruct the installation. Ensure the walls are clean, smooth, and ready for new cabinets. Measure your kitchen dimensions accurately to plan the layout effectively, ensuring optimal use of space.

Step 2: Gather Your Tools and Materials

Gather all the necessary tools and materials needed for the installation. This includes a level, stud finder, drill, screws, measuring tape, and a square. If you’re working with custom cabinets, ensure all your cabinetry, cabinet hardware, and accessories are ready for installation.

Step 3: Mark the Layout

Using a pencil, mark the layout on the wall where the cabinets will be installed. Start from the highest point of your floor and use a level to draw a line around the perimeter. This line will serve as your reference point to ensure that your cabinets are installed straight and level.

Step 4: Install the Upper Cabinets

Begin with the upper cabinets to provide easier access and reduce the risk of damaging lower cabinets. Use a stud finder to locate the wall studs and secure the cabinets into place. Pre-drill holes in the cabinet back and attach them to the wall using screws. Make sure each cabinet is level before moving on to the next one.

Step 5: Install the Lower Cabinets

Once the upper cabinets are in place, it’s time to install the lower cabinets. Position each cabinet carefully, ensuring they are level and aligned with the upper cabinets. Use shims if necessary to adjust for any unevenness. Secure them to the wall studs and to each other for added stability.

Step 6: Attach Cabinet Doors and Hardware

After the cabinets are securely installed, attach the cabinet doors and any hardware, such as handles and knobs. This step can significantly impact the overall look of your kitchen cabinetry, so choose styles that complement your kitchen’s design.

Step 7: Final Touches

Once everything is in place, take a step back and admire your work. Fill any gaps with caulk or trim to create a polished look. If needed, apply finishes or stains to achieve your desired appearance.

Installing kitchen cabinets can be a rewarding DIY project, but if you prefer professional help, consider consulting Cabinet IQ McKinney. With expert kitchen cabinet installation services, we can ensure your cabinets are perfectly fitted and beautifully designed. Enjoy your newly renovated kitchen, complete with stunning custom cabinetry that enhances both aesthetics and functionality!

Advantages Of Vinyl Flooring Solutions In Lampasas, TX

In home decorating, choosing the floor is always an essential decision. Today the market offers a number of options suitable for both renovation and new construction, making vinyl flooring very popular in Lampasas these days. Homeowners appreciate vinyl for its extensive range of properties, including ease of maintenance and cost effectiveness, and this is why its use in homes is on the rise. In some introductory words, this post briefly discusses the advantages of Vinyl Flooring Solutions in Lampasas, TX.

1. Strength and reinforcement

Vinyl flooring is indeed very tough. Unlike traditional hardwood or even laminate flooring, vinyl flooring can resist heavy foot traffic as it is specially made for such. Such a feature is very helpful, especially in homes with multiple household members, pet owners, and even those with pets within the house of Lampasas, TX. Having scratches stains, and being resistant to moisture means you won't have to be at the mercy of wear over time. This is useful, especially in places such as kitchens and bathrooms, where accidents or dampness can lead to damage to other flooring.

2. Variety of styles

Decorating your space with vinyl means choosing from many patterns, colors, and textures that create an atmosphere in a room. Homeowners can choose from options that mimic the look of hardwood, stone, or tile, providing a high-end aesthetic without the hefty price tag. This has a particular draw for those who are doing work with a limited budget but still want the grace of wooden floors. You can choose any design you want when getting vinyl flooring since it is made in all colors and patterns.

3. Comfort underfoot

Wood flooring feels cold and hard, unlike the vinyl one, which is a more supple, warmer, and more comfortable material. Many vinyl options are available with added cushioning to make standing more comfortable for long periods. This additional cushioning can be a huge benefit for families with kids and people who often use these areas in the kitchen and laundry room.

4. Easy installation and maintenance

For homeowners considering Laminate Flooring Installation in Lampasas, TX, vinyl can be an easy and no-fuss alternative. Many of the vinyl flooring products are designed with a click-lock feature, which enables fast and glue-free installation, and to be very precise one can say without the need for nails. This, in turn, allows you to carry it out on your own most of the time; thus, it is a labor-saving measure for you.

5. Affordable

Comparing options, vinyl flooring is generally less expensive than laminate or hardwood. This makes it a value for money option for any homeowner who wants to remodel their home without spending too much. For people in Texas, such as Lampasas, savings in cost make it possible to deviate from the standard gray kitchen countertops and try a more expensive version. Nowadays, even some Hardwood Flooring Experts in Lampasas, TX are availing of the vinyl floor installation services.

Conclusion

So, you must be aware of these advantages of the vinyl flooring solutions. The best vinyl flooring solutions are available in the company Floor Master Texas.

Stainless steel recycling is an essential practice for several reasons. First and foremost, stainless steel is a highly sustainable material because it can be recycled without losing its properties. Recycling stainless steel reduces the demand for virgin materials, such as iron ore and chromium, which are required to produce new stainless steel. By recycling, we conserve natural resources and reduce the environmental impact of mining and manufacturing.

Finally, stainless steel recycling is financially beneficial. Individuals and businesses can earn money by selling scrap stainless steel to recycling centers. Texas is home to many facilities that purchase stainless steel scrap, making it convenient for residents and companies to recycle their old items while also turning a profit.

How Stainless Steel Recycling Works

The stainless steel recycling process involves several key steps, each designed to ensure the material is properly sorted, processed, and prepared for reuse. Here’s how it typically works:

Collection of Scrap Stainless Steel

The first step in stainless steel recycling is the collection of scrap materials. Individuals, construction companies, manufacturers, and other industries gather scrap stainless steel from a variety of sources. Common items that can be recycled include:

Old kitchen appliances

Stainless steel sinks and faucets

Industrial machinery and equipment

Automotive parts

Medical instruments

Sorting and Identification

Once the scrap stainless steel is collected, it must be sorted and identified. Not all metals are created equal, and different types of stainless steel may contain varying amounts of nickel, chromium, and other elements. Recycling centers use advanced technologies like spectrometers and magnetic systems to accurately sort the different types of stainless steel. This step is crucial because it ensures that the recycled material maintains the quality needed for future use.

Processing and Shredding

After sorting, the stainless steel is processed and shredded into smaller pieces to make it easier to melt down in the next stage. Shredding increases the surface area of the material, allowing for more efficient melting. During this stage, other materials that may be attached to the stainless steel, such as rubber, plastic, or insulation, are also removed to ensure that the final product is pure stainless steel.

Melting

The shredded stainless steel is then sent to a furnace where it is melted down at high temperatures. The melting process can vary depending on the type of furnace used, but it typically involves heating the stainless steel to temperatures of around 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit. Once melted, impurities are removed, and the liquid stainless steel is poured into molds or cast into specific shapes for reuse.

Purification and Alloying

During the melting process, stainless steel may undergo purification and alloying. Purification ensures that any remaining impurities are removed from the steel, while alloying involves adding elements such as nickel or chromium to achieve the desired properties for the new stainless steel product. This step ensures that the recycled material meets the required specifications for strength, durability, and corrosion resistance.

Solidification and Distribution

Once the stainless steel has been melted, purified, and alloyed, it is cast into molds and allowed to solidify. The solid stainless steel is then processed into sheets, bars, or other shapes, depending on the intended use. From here, the recycled stainless steel is ready to be distributed to manufacturers and other industries, where it will be used to create new products.

The Benefits of Using Professional Stainless Steel Recycling Services

Using professional stainless steel recycling services provides several benefits over trying to manage recycling on your own. Here’s why you should consider working with a certified recycling service:

Expertise and Knowledge

Recycling centers that specialize in stainless steel have the expertise and equipment needed to properly identify, sort, and process different grades of stainless steel. This ensures that the material is recycled correctly and can be reused in high-quality applications.

Convenience

Many recycling centers offer convenient services, including drop-off locations, pick-up for large quantities of scrap, and easy-to-use recycling bins for businesses. This makes it simple for you to recycle without having to deal with transportation or sorting on your own.

Financial Return

By selling your scrap stainless steel to a professional recycling center, you can earn money while also helping the environment. Many recycling services in Texas offer competitive prices for stainless steel scrap, giving you an incentive to recycle rather than dispose of old items in a landfill.

Environmental Impact

Stainless steel recycling reduces the need for mining and processing raw materials, which in turn reduces environmental degradation and pollution. By recycling, you’re contributing to a more sustainable future and helping to preserve natural resources.

Conclusion

Stainless steel recycling is an important and environmentally responsible practice that benefits both individuals and industries in Texas. From reducing energy consumption to conserving natural resources, recycling stainless steel has a significant positive impact. By using professional stainless steel recycling services, you can ensure that your scrap metal is properly processed and put to good use, all while earning a financial return. Whether you're a homeowner with an old appliance or a business with industrial scrap, Texas offers plenty of opportunities to recycle stainless steel and contribute to a greener future.

Homeowners can consult a pool company in Mansfield and Red Oak, TX for inground pool construction or remodels.   Versatile Entertainment Space   Pergolas are ideal for hosting gatherings and entertaining guests. Whether the homeowner throws a summer barbecue, a family dinner, or a quiet evening with friends, a pergola provides a versatile and inviting space for all social activities. With outdoor lighting, comfortable seating, and maybe even an outdoor kitchen, the pergola can quickly become the heart of one's outdoor entertainment area.   Customization and Personalization   One of the most significant advantages of a pergola is the ability to customize it to one's specific needs and tastes. From choosing the materials and finishes to adding personal touches like lighting, curtains, or heaters, homeowners can create a pergola that perfectly suits their lifestyle. Whether one prefers a rustic wooden structure with natural finishes or a modern aluminum design with sleek lines, the pergola can be as unique as one's home.   Adding a pergola to one's Midlothian home is an excellent way to enhance the functionality and aesthetic appeal of one's outdoor living space.
