This morning she explained in detail how to take geleiten and melt it in hot water, and then let it cool down to make a jelly treat. We’ve never made jello with her, she learned all of this from SciShow.10 May 2026 15:02 +0000at://did:plc:cqeut67i2sgwckrmqfwg2adr/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlizoskqbc25https://bsky.app/profile/macaronbaker.bsky.social/post/3ml47zgp2ws2qMost of Little Bits’s “When I grow up” statements follow along the lines of “I’ll take my kids, and do the same thing we have done as a family” And I think that feels like winning at parenting with @mithradatesvi.bsky.social05 May 2026 12:50 +0000at://did:plc:cqeut67i2sgwckrmqfwg2adr/app.bsky.feed.post/3ml47zgp2ws2qhttps://bsky.app/profile/macaronbaker.bsky.social/post/3ml2rquypbc2eModCloth’s designs this season lean heavily into the 1940’s vibes.
