(Bärbel owns a bar where she sells a special beer to the barber who cuts the beards of the barbarians who like to eat rhubarb cake at Barbara's (aka Rhubarb-Barbara) bar.)
That was kinda my point. If you rely on the fact that your boyfriend or girlfriend understands you well enough that they wouldn't do a proposal that makes you feel uncomfortable, then them doing something like that might be a deal breaker or at least not an immediate yes. Because it would make you rethink whether they really understand you. But we're probably getting lost in hypotheticals here. As long as everyone involved in the OP was happy, I'm happy for them.
To be fair — if I talked to my hypothetical pilot boyfriend and agreed I would marry him and then he proposes on a flight he pilots, in front of all the passengers, I might say No no matter what we discussed previously. Because that would certainly make me question the whole relationship.
There can never be a 100% sure while the where and how to propose is still open, since it includes a lot of scenarios that range from uncomfortable to batshit insane.
My grandma's recipe for Spätzle (egg-based noodles) is: "You start with the amount of eggs you need for the amount of people, add a bit of water, a pinch of salt and then flour until it has the right consistency." Her recipe for pancakes is basically the same.
My grandma is very partial to the easily reproducable measures "until it has the right consistency" and "until it has the right colour". As in "add water until it has the right consistency" or "add milk until it has the right colour". Nearly all her recipes use them.
Funnily enough the latter is also used by Aperol in their recipe for Aperol Spritz on their bottles. At least they provide a picture of what the "right colour" is supposed to be.
It's from my favourite Shakespeare play, Much Ado About Nothing.
Beatrice (on the subject of getting married):
Would it not grieve a woman to be overmaster’d with a piece of valiant dust? To make an account of her life to a clod of wayward marl?
It doesn't make that much sense as a username for me, because the piece of valiant dust would be the husband and I'm a woman. But I thought it sounded nice.
I would argue that moving things is not the same as changing a distance. If that were the case, then moving an event to a different time or our own moving forward in time would be the equivalent to moving an object through space, meaning we can alter time.
but this is a pretty standard part of being searched before you are processed
Not everyone lives in the US. If I remember correctly, here in Germany they are not allowed to routinely do these searches (doesn't mean they can't do them, but it's not standard when you are arrested). I think it's based on EU laws, so the same probably applies to Italy.
Did you take them out of the pans immediately after taking them out of the oven? Cast iron holds heat really well, so if you leave it in the pan, you effectively continue to bake it.
If it was one of my coworkers I would offer them to come to me if they either need someone to talk to or need a distraction. For example going on a walk during our break or go get some food together, though these may not be applicable to your workplace.
I wasn't just talking about using a cleaner style of speaking either. Choosing topics and the depth of these topics is part of communication as well. Those should be picked according to prior cues (the community you're in, previous exchanged comments etc.)
I think everybody should "dumb themselves down" on social media. Since you can only assume other people's background on a given topic and their grasp of (for example) English, you should write in a way that's understandable to as many people as possible while still getting your point across. That's just how good communication works.

... unless there are not enough teachers, or not enough public pools, or...
The indoor pool I learned swimming closed a decade ago and since then there is no public indoor pool in the city anymore.
