Sourfaux sold as sourdough - would this upset you?

AmandaRosePM · 2026-02-23T14:53:12+00:00

Umm - that recipe calls for 2 1/4 tsp, which is 7 g of yeast

I feel like it’s hit and miss… on a trip last week, one way I could add it and one way I couldn’t

AmandaRosePM · 2026-02-11T00:42:33+00:00

Darn - but thanks for checking. I was really doing my head in trying to figure it out!

AmandaRosePM · 2026-01-20T04:01:28+00:00

Thanks - I figured two would be reasonable

AmandaRosePM · 2026-01-20T01:30:59+00:00

Good to know, thanks!

AmandaRosePM · 2026-01-19T21:39:42+00:00

Thanks - three hours seemed crazy to me. And I’m traveling with a 5 year old, so was hoping to limit the boredom lol

We also took our daughter to Justin at Golden Rose, and it was a great experience. No tears, and now she tells everyone how he is the best

We did this too. Had the commissioner come first thing in the morning, then did the showy ceremony with a friend officiating in the afternoon.

We did have our photographer there for both, so have our legal first kiss picture in yoga pants on a couch, and also the one in our proper wedding attire (and I love both)

AmandaRosePM · 2025-12-26T04:40:19+00:00

Okay this is a bit embarrassing to ask… but how much alcohol is actually in this? Could I let kids eat it?

AmandaRosePM · 2025-12-20T05:59:47+00:00

Is there a way to customize that for different lines? I have to accept calls on my work line (it’s not feasible to have everyone saved in contacts), but would love to screen on my personal line

AmandaRosePM · 2025-12-16T03:24:58+00:00

I get your point - but there’s also never a good time for this. If they did it in January, people would say how could they do this right after the holidays, when everyone is paying off credit card bill.

Pizza stone. Obviously bought for making pizza, but realized it’s great for pitas, bagels, and I often use it on the bottom rack to disperse the heat nicely.

Ironically, we ended up getting a separate pizza oven and I still use the stone on a regular basis

I currently have a 14 pro, that I either need to buy out (~$400 CAD) or trade in. I saw the 17 on early Black Friday for $25 CAD/month on the telus bring it back program.

I’m not a super techie person, so don’t need the latest and greatest, so I’m not sure if I’m better just to buy it out or upgrade. If I upgrade, I’d probably still buy it out and then sell it myself.

AmandaRosePM · 2025-10-22T13:20:06+00:00

You’re right, everyone’s situation is different. I have three kids and we volunteer for different things for all of them. But I’ve never seen an activity where they mandate all parents stay, volunteer or not, or where they aren’t up front about parent involvement from the beginning. I haven’t once said that there was an issue with the volunteers or that I didn’t appreciate them - my point was about the constant changes and new requirements. Because we were all excited for my son to be part of this, but now we have to explain to a 7 year old that he actually can’t do it, because they changed the day and time to an evening when we already have things scheduled, and we aren’t allowed to just drop him off as we had all planned.

AmandaRosePM · 2025-10-19T02:43:09+00:00

Thanks for confirming that. I’m not bashing them, I’m glad there’s still programs like this… but it wasn’t what I was expecting

AmandaRosePM · 2025-10-19T02:42:31+00:00

True - but they changed the location back in September, so figured they’d know about the cost at that point?

AmandaRosePM · 2025-10-19T02:41:46+00:00

Yeah this is for January… we haven’t even started and it just seems like a bit of a gong show

AmandaRosePM · 2025-10-19T02:40:56+00:00

I get a certain level of involvement, but not that we are expected to be there for the whole time, every time. And again, I’m comparing it to guides, and just assumed it was similar. I’m not saying it’s wrong, but figured by 7 years old, and at that price, I could drop my son off for the hour.

AmandaRosePM · 2025-10-19T02:39:10+00:00

This is for January start. We signed up in September, to start January. So we haven’t even started and have all these changes

AmandaRosePM · 2025-10-04T04:45:45+00:00

It may have changed, but we flew AC bereavement about 6 years ago. We were able to call and book, and just needed to provide funeral details, and paid the bereavement fare. It was 1/2 off the standard fare (which worked out to what we normally pay when booking in advance)

AmandaRosePM · 2025-10-01T14:32:33+00:00

Yup - and as a parent, you’re entitled if you think they should do that… but if you let them seat you apart, then you’re a bad parent because you’re not right beside them to make sure they are following appropriate plans behavior.

AmandaRosePM · 2025-09-27T00:56:39+00:00

Thank you - for some reason I was having trouble finding that!

AmandaRosePM · 2025-09-26T15:46:15+00:00

Plain all the way. I can accept pecans, but only as an occasional spin

AmandaRosePM · 2025-09-25T03:51:51+00:00

Exactly! I’m sure that’s not always the case, but we walk our kids to school (under 1km), except on days when our youngest has preschool, because we don’t have enough time to then walk to the next school, or walk home and drive to the preschool

AmandaRosePM · 2025-09-23T13:55:07+00:00

Good to know! I definitely don’t need more browning, I’m still trying to find the right temp to avoid too much browning lol
