A Creamy Marinara: Part 1

This recipe is not yet complete, and I do not know when it will be. I do know that the final form requires several iterations to get up to, and this specific version is one that I find to be one that can be easily thrown together. This recipe does not have exact measurements. Add everything to your instincts. This specific iteration uses premade sauce, specifically Rao's Marinara. Makes about 4 servings Cooking Oil, Olive oil is used here. 1/4 large onion, diced finely Tomato sauce, about 1.5 tablespoon Red chili flakes to your taste ~4-8 Garlic Cloves, minced Heavy Cream, about 1/4 cup 28 oz of premade tomato sauce Salt Onion Cream Base Add an exorbitant amount of oil, and bring it up to heat.

Pull off the heat and let it cool down just a bit before adding the  heavy cream Mix everything. Add t...

Juggling 3 Balls Is Much Easier Than You Thought

Juggling is seen by many, formerly including myself, as a skill only for professional performers or circus artists. However, as the title says, juggling three balls is much easier than you thought. While it may seem like a very tall cliff to climb, you can make it significantly simpler by not starting with three balls. 

Start with one ball. Hold it in your dominant hand, and bring it up parallel to the floor at about waist height. Then, practice tossing it from hand to hand, keeping the arc the ball takes relatively constant. It may help to throw the ball to two imaginary points shoulder-width and slightly above your head. 

Once you're comfortable with that, add a second ball. Hold each ball in one hand, and with your dominant hand, throw one to the imaginary point. As it starts its descent, throw the other ball, catch the descending ball with your newly-emptied hand, and repeat. Practice the two-ball juggle to gradually improve your rhythm and accuracy.

Finally, when you feel ready, introduce the third ball. Hold two balls in your dominant hand and 1 in the non-dominant.

Throw one ball from the dominant, and as it descends, throw from the non-dominant, just like two ball. Catch with your non-dominant, and throw the second ball from the dominant. By breaking the progression into these stages, you can gradually build up your skills and muscle memory.

Remember, learning to juggle takes time and patience. Practice as little or as long as you need. Drops or mistakes are a natural part of the learning process. Embrace them as opportunities to learn and improve. Adjust the methods to suit your preference, whether it's the height of the throws, the speed of the pattern, or the positioning of your hands. And most importantly, celebrate the small wins along the way.
