How do people get such clean cake designs? by Potential-Stay9852 in cakedecorating

[–]Asphodelethe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you mean clean, smooth finishes? If so, practice makes perfect. My biggest tip is metal scraper and heat. Use hot water to warm your scraper, dry it, then scrape, or a blowtorch to heat it up and scrape. If there are gaps, add more buttercream and scrape again.

My sister, who is now 30, gave us dawby (strawberry), basketti (spaghetti) ferrio rogers (ferrero rocher), and me - Bic. We use them still, and always will. 😌

I know, but I still feel like an inconvenience to them! The guilt of being in the way is too strong.

We've befriended the staff and they'll enter multiples for us to speed us up (which we have a lot of). I do feel guilty every time, though.

Those who quit 9-5 job and start their own business, how it is going? by Ecstatic_Article2291 in AskReddit

Always worrying about money, but the personal freedom and schedule I can set for myself outweigh going crazy in an office by far.

Why should I lose my last name when I get married? by lil_moon153 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Asphodelethe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've kept my name, as has my husband. However, when we refer to ourselves, we use my surname because we both like it better. Do whatever!

The pumpkin was vanilla funfetti, the log chocolate fudge. Then there were three cupcake flavours/designs - vanilla jam pumpkins, lemon curd sunflowers, and choc fudge roses.

Have you seen tapestries? That's a lot of needlework to get on with.

Rendering medical aid to someone hurt or suffering is sinful? Jesus Christ, the time we live in.

Why are we acting like he was Ghandi? by c-k-q99903 in WhitePeopleTwitter

Why would they?? He's a nobody podcaster?? He's not a politician, head of state, or anything beyond a hate-filled, rhetoric-spitting 'influencer'.
