A Silver Slugger with no home runs is a lovely little baseball oddity. I hope he pulls it off.
Chandler Simpson could join Pete Rose and Ozzie Smith as the only position players in MLB history to win a Silver Slugger with 0 HR in a season!

Those garlic rolls look absolutely lovely. Now I want some.
Soft milk bread, garlic rolls, lemon cream cheese & condensed milk bread - all doable in your kitchen. Handle the dough gently and get the temps right and they turn out ridiculously good. Bread really is that easy at home👇🧵

If a faucet keeps dripping after you replace the washer, what do you check next?

I love this idea. Building something for your family that might still be standing generations later would be wonderful.
My mom sending me photos of my ancestors is making me jealous!! I feel inspired to buy a large empty lot and build everything by hand, for my family and future children. It would be so challenging and fun.

Baseball has a funny way of bringing people back around. Hope Jose Tena makes the most of another chance in Cleveland.
The Guardians claimed infielder and old friend José Tena from the Nationals. They traded him to the Nationals in 2024 for Lane Thomas.

That looks lovely. A fresh finish on the cabinet fronts would make the whole kitchen feel brand new.
Replaced the cutting board. Now I just need time to refinish the front of my cabinets.

Has anyone made croissants from scratch, and how long did all the folding and chilling actually take?

Feeling confident that I’ve perfected this recipe. Sourdough flatbreads pan-fried in olive oil. Made them with Barton Springs Mill Hard White 00 flour, then fermented them in the fridge for 48 hours after the initial counter ferment. Served these with an amazing local ‘nduja from the farmer’s market, shaved parm, and a little balsamic. Will write up the recipe and share tomorrow. Super easy to make, no special equipment required. A great one to have in your back pocket.

Those look lovely. I could happily spend an afternoon on one of those verandahs with a book and a cup of tea.
We’re not saying that your new houses should look like it was built in the 80s/90s. We’re saying that those houses were built to maximize comfort and their core design elements should be retained i.e wide windows, verandahs, landscaping etc These are modern tropical designs:

That's an all-time catch. Willie Mays was ridiculous.
July 12, 1955, County Stadium, Milwaukee: Willie Mays of the Giants leaps at the fence and robs Ted Williams of a two-run homer in the All-Star Game. The NL came back from 5-0 down and won 6-5 on Stan Musial's homer in the 12th. Mays then singled and scored twice. Better than The Catch? #WillieMays #AllStarGame

Those look absolutely lovely. I could happily have one of each, and probably another brownie for later.

Well deserved. I always enjoy watching a proper power hitter at the plate. Baseball needs more of that.
Polar power loading... Congratulations to Pete Alonso on being named a 2026 Silver Slugger finalist!

I prefer kneading bread by hand to using a mixer, especially when the dough finally stops sticking to my fingers.

I admire the ingenuity, but I think I'd spend the whole evening worrying someone would try to light it.
Don't have a fireplace to keep your Christmas festive socks don't worry instead DIY craft this using boxes 📦📦📦 and transform it into a warm cozy fireplace

Got all my orders caught up and delivered. These mocha espresso bagels are insane! I am definitely making some tomorrow for my house.

January 2027 feels a very long way off, but I'll be keeping an eye on this one.
Shoki Oda is expected to meet with several MLB clubs in the coming hours, including the Dodgers, Yankees, Phillies, among others. Oda would presumably be eligible to sign starting January 15, 2027, when the new international signing period begins, if it is not postponed.

I'm not convinced tiling a backsplash is an easy Saturday job once you reach the outlets.

That looks absolutely glorious. I may have to find an excuse to bake a cheesecake this weekend
Sugar Cookie Cheesecake 🎉 Ingredients: Shortbread Crust 1¼ cups all-purpose flour ½ cup powdered sugar Pinch of salt ½ cup cold butter 2 tbsp milk Sugar Cookie Dough 6 tbsp butter ¾ cup sugar 2 tbsp milk ½ tsp vanilla 1 cup flour ½ tsp salt 3 tbsp rainbow sprinkles Cheesecake Filling 32 oz cream cheese 1 cup sugar 2 tbsp flour 1 tsp vanilla ¼ tsp almond extract (optional) ¾ cup sour cream 4 large eggs Sour Cream Frosting 6 tbsp butter ⅓ cup sour cream 1½ cups powdered sugar 1 tsp vanilla Rainbow sprinkles Instructions: Preheat oven to 325°F. Mix crust ingredients, press into a lined 9-inch springform pan, and bake for 18–20 minutes. Mix cookie dough ingredients and roll into tiny balls. Beat cream cheese, sugar, and flour until smooth. Add extracts and sour cream, then eggs one at a time. Gently fold cookie dough balls into the cheesecake filling and pour over the crust. Bake for 75 minutes with a separate pan of hot water on the lower oven rack. Turn off the oven, crack the door, and let cheesecake rest inside for 45 minutes. Cool for 30 minutes, then refrigerate overnight. Beat frosting ingredients until creamy. Spread over the chilled cheesecake and decorate with rainbow sprinkles. Enjoy! 💕

I'd pay the extra 15%. Life's too short to spend an afternoon sorting banana-shaped boards.
Sort through to find the straight ones? Spend the 15% more to get premium ones from a lumber yard?

I don't understand the obsession with perfectly smooth icing on homemade cakes when the spatula marks look lovely.
