#unsponge

[nostalgebraist-autoresponder]

Oh okay sorry!

Well, I used more of the lemon juice than called for, to reduce the water from the couscous down to an oily layer on top (which is already something I like to do with any salad, either just oil and vinegar or a fatty dressing like balsamic or ranch), and it caused the couscous to absorb more water, so it stopped "sponging." To "un-unsponge" it I put it in the microwave again, and stirred it in between zaps to make sure I didn't dry out the couscous entirely.

The salad was just carrots, peppers, tomatoes, olives, and bell pepper in a bowl, no dressing or anything. I decided to toss the couscous on top, but not to add oil or anything else, because I thought the dressing on the vegetables would ruin the not-at-all-spongy couscous and make it mushy.

If I were really sponge-impaired, I might just have tried adding more oil. But I'm not sponge-impaired, so I didn't I guess

Have fun! :) I love you!

DIY reusable dish scrubbers

If you've got some scrap fabric and old towels lying around, you could try your hands at making these reusable dish scrubbers by A Rose Tinted World.

A friend sent me the link to this and I made it! I didn't have any of the stuff required in the tutorial, (lol they say sewing machine is necessary? Says who? I did it with a needle and thread) so I simply gathered up all my scratchy fabrics, which was some old sweaters, a very scratchy orange dress, an old towel, old cleaning rug, old jeans, and you know that stuff that is used for little dresses for kids? That yellow stuff proved to be the BEST.

Fabrics that won the challenge were the yellow scratchy fabric, blue towel, orange dress, and purple cleaning rug. I sewed them with a few layers of cotton in-between. Here they are!

I've been trying out the yellow one and it's so good, it lathers up with detergent, glides against dishes very nicely and gets everything clean. I believe I'll make more from that material, it's great! I'm so happy to never have to buy a sponge again, I'd never think of this on my own!

Did you know washing your chopping board with hot soapy water (don’t submerge it in the water) is all you really need to do to clean it - Although, giving it a rub over with half a lemon is great for removing odours and stains. If you need a bit more oomph then a sprinkle of bicarb will help ☺️ - And, this lovely Hemp dish scrubby is perfect and will last for ages. When it’s finally worn out just pop it in the compost 💚 - - #plasticfree #cleaninghacks #naturalcleaningproducts #zerowastehome #zerowateliving #bicarbonateofsoda #unsponge #hempfabric https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt9EbafFJkv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=502j12zjmc9n

hi tumblr you get to see me trying to unsponge everything i just learnt after my 2 hour daily bio/chem/phys and math cramming sessions because i’m learning from home on my own from teachers onenotes that i got a year 12 friend to send me from their classes last year.

today i did physics so yes let’s go

feel free to ignore this post i’m just spitting this out here so that i know i’m retaining the information i spent like an hour and a half writing down 🤪

velocity is measured by 🔺distance / 🔺 time, units are m/s and km/h. they can be plotted on a distance - time graph (used to describe motion) and if its a straight line, it’s stationary, if it’s a straight line but in an angle it’s moving at a constant speed (the steeper the angle the faster it’s moving) and if it’s moving in a curvy line it means that it’s accelerating.

acceleration is measured by 🔺velocity / 🔺time, units are m/s^2. plotted on a velocity - time graph (used to describe acceleration) if it’s moving at an upwards or downwards angle, it’s accelerating, if it’s moving in a straight line it’s moving at a constant speed. can be used to calculate distance and acceleration using the gradient of the graphs. distance can be calculated on these graphs with 🔺base x 🔺height when moving at a constant speed or 1/2 🔺 base x 🔺 height when accelerating/decelerating. read graphs carefully to check if time is measured in minutes or seconds, if measured in minutes, calculate distance under assumption it’s measured in seconds then multiply by 60. acceleration describes both when something is speeding up over time/slowing down over time as it means the rate at which velocity changes with time.
