39 - Shapeshifter 1

52 - Bacon and Eggs

53 - On Floor One 1

54 - On Floor One 2

Again most of them are the multi parts. chapter 47 originally didn't have the title and stats but the panel looked just like a food is done panel so I went to check on the official release and they added it so it's here. Chapter 37 I think its so far the only non multi part chapter where no food is prepped or eaten, in chapter 52 they make and drink tea even tho there's no special panel.

Now for stats.

Senshi made/worked on 17, 18 if you count the Crispy Crunchy Mushroom Sandwich and 19 if you count the small help with the omelet, I'll count the sandwich so 18.

Chilchuck worked on 3 meals

Marcille worked on 3 meals, one of them she was making a potion but it got used in a sauce

Laios made/worked on 4 meals, 2 of them by himself! And one of them with minimal Senshi help.

Izutsumi helped with the dumplings, you go izutsumi.

Out of the 24 meals in these 4 volumes, 22 were food and 1 was medicine and 1 was a goopy brick

Out of the 22 foods Senshi worked on 17 of them (1 of his was the brick), 3 of them were Laios, 1 of them was ready made food and 1 was the golden kingdom citizens

The eastern style meal was mostly made by Maizuru but Senshi helped.

There was a few panels that were small/had dialog in them but I counted cause they had the meal title, dragon ham title appears twice but I only counted as one meal.

Once again, I'm bad with numbers if I got anything wrong feel free to correct me!

Technology from 1870-1899 (For Encanto fic writers)

So, A mutual of mine @miracles-and-butterfliess pointed out that everyone (including me) tends to forget that Encanto was literally made when the triplets were born. Which is literally 1900 or 1901. Regardless, it was the very beginning of the 19th century so let me tell you about the technology/things they would/wouldn’t have. (And please keep in mind that most of these may or may not have been imported into Colombia yet.) 

1870 - 1879

1872—A.M. Ward creates the first mail-order catalog. NO

1873—Joseph Glidden invented barbed wire. NO

1876—Alexander Graham Bell patents the telephone. NO

1876—Nicolaus August Otto invents the first practical four-stroke internal combustion engine. NO

1876—Melville Bissell patents the carpet sweeper. NO?

1878—Thomas Edison invents the cylinder phonograph (known then as the tin foil phonograph). MAYBE

1878—Eadweard Muybridge invents moving pictures. NO?

1878—Sir Joseph Wilson Swan invents the prototype for a practical electric lightbulb. YES?

1884—L. A. Thompson built and opened the first roller coaster in the United States at a site on Coney Island, New York. NO

1884—James Ritty invents a functional mechanical cash register. YES?

1884—Charles Parson patents the steam turbine. NO

1885—Karl Benz invented the first practical automobile powered by an internal-combustion engine. NO (even before Encanto, Alma’s town looked rural so I doubt the automobile reached them yet.)

1885—Gottlieb Daimler invented the first gas-engine motorcycle. NO

1886—John Pemberton introduces Coca-Cola. NO

1886—Gottlieb Daimler designs and builds the world's first four-wheeled automobile. NO

1892—Sir James Dewar invents the Dewar vacuum flask. NO

1893—W.L. Judson invents the zipper. NO (zippers didn’t become popular globally until a little bit later; buttons, ribbons/laces and whatever else were still the norm/in fashion for fastening and tying (which is still the case in some places today)

1895—Brothers Auguste and Louis Lumière invent a portable motion-picture camera that doubles as a film-processing unit and projector. The invention is called the Cinematographe and using it, the Lumières project the motion picture for an audience. NO?

1899—J.S. Thurman patents the motor-driven vacuum cleaner. NO (if you're running from being killed, the last thing you're going to bring is a vacuum cleaner) 

I remember a post listing the sort of jobs there would be in Encanto but I forgot so I’ll just list the ones I know (let me know if I need to add anything.): 

Seamstress/tailor

Embellisher

Field worker 

Teacher (of any kind; music, dance, art, etc)

Woodworker - wood carver

Toy maker

Construction worker

Joining a Local band/ Orchestra - being apart of a choir 

Carpenter 

Metal worker 

Jeweler (though I’m not sure if Jewelery of the diamond/gem kind is common in Encanto)

bladesmith/ knifemaker 

Inventor? (Inventors should exist in Encanto by now…just one other genius besides Mirabel?)

I know some of these are very obvious but I’m just giving people options okay? 

@miracles-and-butterflies you seem to know a lot more about this kind of stuff so if you have anything to add/take away or me to fix please let me know. I tried to search up “When was X invention imported into Colombia” and literally nothing of use comes up.

Are Home Carpet Cleaners as Good as Professional?

When it comes to maintaining clean and fresh carpets in your Eugene home, the question of whether home carpet cleaners are as good as professional ones often arises. While both options have their merits, there are key differences to consider.

Home carpet cleaners, such as portable machines or DIY solutions, can be convenient and cost-effective for routine maintenance. They are suitable for handling minor spills and light soiling. However, they may lack the power and advanced technology of professional equipment, limiting their ability to deep clean and remove tough stains effectively.

On the other hand, professional residential carpet cleaning services in Eugene offer a higher level of expertise and specialized equipment. Trained technicians understand various carpet types and know the most suitable cleaning methods. They use powerful steam cleaning or hot water extraction techniques to reach deep into the carpet fibers, removing embedded dirt, allergens, and stains.

In conclusion, while home carpet cleaners can serve a purpose for regular upkeep, they may not match the thoroughness and results achieved by professional residential carpet cleaning services. For a truly revitalized and immaculate carpet, entrusting the task to professionals in Eugene is a wise choice.

The Ultimate Guide to Keeping Your Beverages at the Perfect Temperature

Have you ever taken a sip of coffee only to find it's gone cold, or grabbed your water bottle after a workout to discover it's lost its refreshing chill? We've all been there. The secret to maintaining your drink's ideal temperature isn't magic—it's all about choosing the right drinkware.

Why Temperature Matters in Drinking Experience

Temperature can make or break your drinking experience. A perfectly chilled smoothie on a hot summer day or a steaming hot coffee during a chilly morning can transform your mood and provide that perfect moment of comfort. But achieving and maintaining that ideal temperature isn't as simple as it sounds.

The Science Behind Thermal Insulation

Traditional containers fail miserably when it comes to temperature preservation. Heat escapes quickly from hot drinks, while cold beverages warm up almost instantly. This is where modern temperature control drinkware comes into play.

How Thermal Insulation Works

Thermal insulation is based on a simple yet brilliant principle: creating a barrier that minimizes heat transfer. The most effective method? Double-wall technology. By creating a vacuum or air gap between two walls, these containers dramatically slow down temperature changes.

Types of Temperature-Preserving Drinkware

Let's explore the champions of beverage temperature maintenance:

1. Double-Walled Glass Cups

These elegant solutions combine aesthetics with functionality. Unlike single-wall glasses, double-wall glass cups create an insulating layer that keeps your hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold for hours.

Key Benefits:

Crystal clear appearance

No condensation on the exterior

Maintains temperature for extended periods

Suitable for both hot and cold beverages

2. Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottles

For the active lifestyle enthusiast, stainless steel water bottles are game-changers. Their robust construction and advanced insulation technology make them perfect companions for outdoor adventures.

What Makes Them Special:

Extreme temperature retention

Durable and long-lasting

Often comes with additional features like wide mouths or built-in straws

Ideal for hiking, gym, or daily hydration

3. Glass Tumblers with Straws

A modern solution for those who love convenience without compromising on style. These tumblers combine the elegance of glass with practical design elements.

Advantages:

Easy to clean

Environmentally friendly alternative to disposable cups

Versatile design for various beverages

Straw allows for comfortable sipping

Choosing the Right Thermal Drink Container

When selecting your ideal beverage companion, consider these factors:

Intended Use: Are you a coffee lover, a fitness enthusiast, or someone who enjoys varied beverages?

Lifestyle: Do you need something portable for travel or for home/office use?

Material Preference: Glass, stainless steel, or other materials?

Capacity: How much liquid do you typically consume?

Pro Tips for Maximizing Temperature Retention

Preheat or pre-cool your container before adding beverages

Fill containers to the recommended level

Keep lids tightly sealed when not drinking

Avoid placing containers in direct sunlight or extreme environments

Environmental and Economic Benefits

Investing in quality thermal drink containers isn't just about personal comfort—it's an environmentally conscious choice. By reducing disposable cup usage, you're contributing to waste reduction and sustainable living.

Cost-Effective in the Long Run

While premium temperature control drinkware might seem expensive initially, the long-term savings are significant. No more buying replacement drinks or wasting half-consumed beverages that have lost their temperature appeal.

Maintenance and Care

To ensure your thermal drink containers perform optimally:

Clean regularly with mild detergents

Avoid using abrasive cleaners

Best Practices for Cleaning LA Homes During Allergy Season

Allergy season can be particularly challenging in Los Angeles, where pollen levels and environmental allergens frequently rise. For residents, maintaining a clean and allergen-free home is essential to reducing symptoms such as sneezing, watery eyes, and congestion. Implementing a thorough cleaning routine is key, and professional assistance, like commercial cleaning services Los Angeles, can provide specialized care to ensure your home is a sanctuary from allergens.

Here are some best practices for keeping your LA home clean and safe during allergy season:

Dust with Purpose

Dust is a significant trigger for allergies and often settles on furniture, blinds, shelves, and electronics. Instead of using feather dusters that scatter particles into the air, opt for microfiber cloths that trap dust effectively. Pay special attention to neglected areas, like ceiling fans and baseboards.

Vacuum cleaners with HEPA filters are excellent for capturing fine dust particles. Vacuum rugs, carpets, and upholstery regularly, as these surfaces can trap allergens over time. If dust persists or becomes overwhelming, hiring commercial cleaning services in Los Angeles can ensure every nook and cranny is addressed.

Deep Clean Carpets and Rugs

Carpets and rugs can harbor allergens like pollen, pet dander, and dust mites. Regular vacuuming helps, but a deep clean using steam or professional carpet cleaning services provides thorough results. Steam cleaning eliminates allergens embedded deep within the fibers, creating a healthier living environment.

For households with severe allergies, consider switching to washable area rugs or hardwood flooring, which are easier to clean and less likely to trap allergens.

Wash Linens and Bedding Frequently

Your bedding can quickly accumulate allergens, especially if you leave windows open for fresh air. Wash sheets, pillowcases, and blankets in hot water weekly to kill dust mites and remove pollen. Using hypoallergenic covers for mattresses and pillows can also prevent allergens from building up.

If you're sensitive to laundry detergents, choose fragrance-free or hypoallergenic options to minimize irritation.

Control Indoor Humidity

High humidity levels create a perfect environment for mold and mildew growth, both of which can aggravate allergies. Use a dehumidifier to keep indoor humidity levels between 30% and 50%. Ensure proper ventilation in bathrooms, laundry rooms, and kitchens to reduce moisture buildup.

If you notice mold, address it immediately. Professional cleaning services are equipped to handle mold removal safely and efficiently.

Clean Air Vents and Filters

Air conditioning systems can circulate allergens throughout your home if not properly maintained. Replace HVAC filters with HEPA filters and clean vents regularly to minimize allergen buildup. Portable air purifiers are another excellent investment for improving indoor air quality.

Use Non-Toxic Cleaning Products

Harsh cleaning chemicals can exacerbate allergy symptoms. Opt for non-toxic, eco-friendly cleaning products to reduce exposure to harmful fumes. Vinegar, baking soda, and lemon are effective natural alternatives for many cleaning tasks.

Schedule Professional Cleaning Services

When juggling work, family, and other responsibilities, maintaining a clean home can feel overwhelming. Commercial cleaning services in Los Angeles offer tailored solutions to target allergens effectively. Professionals use advanced tools and techniques to ensure your home is thoroughly sanitized, leaving you with peace of mind during allergy season.

Allergy season in Los Angeles doesn't have to be a struggle. By adopting these cleaning practices and seeking professional help when necessary, you can create a healthier and more comfortable living environment. Whether it's deep cleaning carpets, addressing mold, or keeping dust at bay, consistent efforts will make a noticeable difference in managing allergy symptoms.
