Last week I made GF cardamom buns as part of my Easter dinner. But I had a first pass where I put the psyllium husk into the dry ingredients instead of the proofed yeast & milk (where it would gel). I held onto that batch of dry ingredients and salvaged it yesterday.
The buns came out well, but spread quite a lot. They still had a good texture and density, so I don’t know how much my psyllium oops was a factor.
Still learning GF yeasted baking.

I think some of these points are also worth considering in teaching contexts and in guidelines for term papers/written exams.
Good Morning #Canada
We still have 20 rivers to highlight in this #CanadaRivers series and a couple of things stand out. We are now listing rivers that are close to 1,000 kms, and despite the size there are many I've never heard of. Add in several million lakes and you gotta agree that Canada is blessed with #Hydrology features.
The Thelon River, called Akilinik in Inuit, is #21 on our list and stretches 904 kms across northern Canada. Its source is Whitefish Lake in the Northwest Territories, and it flows east to Baker Lake in Nunavut, ultimately draining into Hudson Bay. It is fed by a watershed of 142,400 km2 but with a vertical drop of less than 400 metres over its length it is not suitable for hydroelectric development. The Thelon is one of the easiest tundra rivers to paddle, with a steady current, few rapids and no portages. It therefore is a destination for paddling vacations and tourists looking to experience Canada's north.

24.3 kWh production, another new record. The days are getting longer and the sun is getting higher, but the monsoon season keeps breaking up streaks of high production with heavy rainstorms.
We might get up to an inch of snow ovenight into tomorrow which will probably hurt my numbers until it melts, if any of it sticks (the panels and roof are probably warmer than the ground, so it may just melt on contact)
The #Kreutz comet MAPS is now also in the field of view of the coronagraph CCOR-1: help yourself to the latest images at https://ccor.nrl.navy.mil/ccor_realtime/last_image_MinBckgnd.png (15 minute cadence). What SOHO's LASCO C3 and PUNCH's NFI see and what it all means I've just summarized the bottom of https://skyweek.wordpress.com/2026/04/01/artemis-ii-vor-dem-start-maps-vor-dem-perihel/ with the still growing thread https://groups.io/g/comets-ml/topic/118640744 as the major source - in a nutshell there is still some life in this sungrazer (25 hours til perihelion!) and no evidence that it's beginning to fall apart which it will certainly do at one point.
