As someone who made bread every week and took care of a lot of plants before the pandemic and is still doing so up to the present day, I'm quite glad everyone went back to "normal" so I don't have to fucking compete with everyone to do these parts of my life.
You never had to compete with people for this
During the pandemic the grocery store was always sold out of bread flour and sometimes yeast, and the prices of tropical plants ballooned to 2-3x the usual price, with stores sometimes selling out of inventory as soon as they got it in. Some of this I'm sure can be attributed to supply chain issues but some of it was surely also due to consumer demand.
I have to ask, are you trying to gatekeep baking bread and having plants?
Are you a hipster Baker and plant maker?
A competitive hipster Baker and plant maker!
Yeah
Do you race houseplants with others or something?
Yes
