      My wife and I just had a baby and are now soaking it all in on maternity and paternity leave.

      For context, I live in the tropics and get a lot of sunlight for most of the year outside of monsoon season.

      I was recently chatting with some coworkers and one of the mentioned baking cookies on their dashboard during the summer, and I remember my brother mentioning doing that when he lived in Arizona. That is something I could probably do here, but we always keep a sunshade up in our car so it isn't incredibly hot when we get inside.

      This got me thinking about solar ovens since I remember seeing a video of someone using one to cook online awhile ago, and I was curious if anyone here has one or has any experience using one and if it was worth it or if they would have any recommendations.

    4. What is something you're holding together?

      You're the glue, the leader, the center of gravity, the one making it happen. Without you, it would probably fall apart, cease to function, or stop. What is it? What do you do? Do people...

      You're the glue, the leader, the center of gravity, the one making it happen.

      Without you, it would probably fall apart, cease to function, or stop.

      What is it?
      What do you do?
      Do people appreciate your role, or is it invisible?

    5. Offbeat Fridays – The thread where offbeat headlines become front page news

      Tildes is a very serious site, where we discuss very serious matters like hiring, sora and three cheers. Tags culled from the highest voted topics from the last seven days, if anyone was bemused.

      But one of my favourite tags happens to be offbeat! Taking its original inspiration from Sir Nils Olav III, this thread is looking for any far-fetched offbeat stories lurking in the newspapers. It may not deserve its own post, but it deserves a wider audience!
