If you found out she has gestational diabetes from anyone else but her, and that she’s having a hard time, let it be. If she told you herself in an honest moment of comfort, tell her “I’m so sorry. That sucks.” And let her vent. The last thing she wants is for anyone to make a big deal about it, solve her problems, or choose her diet.
Bring in donuts again. Seriously. She’s an adult and can choose to eat them.
Bring in a more health conscious option. Once again, she can choose to eat it or not.
You’re trying to find an option when most likely you shouldn’t know about her personal health issues in the first place. Unless you have a very close relationship that you aren’t letting us know about, you shouldn’t be trying to figure out something to give her to make her feel better. She could very easily feel ostracized for her pregnancy in the first place. Employers arent super cool with pregnancies, let alone pregnancies that are in any magnitude more difficult.
What makes will make her feel better is a coworker that respects her space and private health matters. Don’t treat her as special. Treat her as human.
Let’s assume his daughters are of legal sexual consenting age. Taylor is still getting mayonnaise in her bun after a hot pastrami.
Saw one yesterday where a guy was selling a meta quest 3. He said " Bought it and used it twice. Wasn’t worth the upgrade from a quest 2. Total waste of money."
I’ve been rewatching their set from Lollapalooza on YouTube way more often than I ever expected to.

Besides Kenji’s food lab, learning the 5 French “mother” sauces is necessary. Almost every sauce is just a variation of those sauces.
Learning how to make a bechamel will give you the biggest reward IMO. Gravy, cheese sauce, cream sauces for pasta, all of those are just a bechamel with different things added. Garlic cream sauce for pasta? Add garlic to a bechamel. Gravy for potatoes, beef, chicken, or whatever? Add some thyme, rosemary and onion to a bechamel. Cheese sauce for Mac and cheese, or a cheese dip? Add cheese and some mustard powder to a bechamel.
Ridiculously simple, takes only a few minutes, and come thanksgiving, everyone will rave about your gravy since everyone seems to just buy the jars of flavorless garbage gravy.
Kenji is the new Alton Brown. He’s brilliant and he’s changing the food game. A few weeks ago I thought, “do other people use this ingredient like this?” Top result is from Kenji. Then a few hours later I think, “Can I put this dish in the oven and roast it instead of watching the pot?” First result is Kenji.
Every time I make anything I try to push the envelope. I rarely look up any recipes. I just cook to better my dishes, but every time I think “did I just come up with something no one has ever thought to do?”, I find that no I haven’t, and Kenji already perfected its execution 4 years ago.
