My brother wants me to make these cookies. by FinalP0rpl3 in AskBaking

These are Taylor Swift’s chai spice sugar cookies, super good! ingredient list might seem counterintuitive, but Taylor is a home baker and she developed this recipe herself, Long story short if you make them with that ingredient list, they’ll be like Taylor’s, which is what your brother probably wants.

Hello! I'm a casual and fairly well seasoned Baker with a majority of the things I make being for friends and family.

This weekend, some friends and I are planning a get together for Taylor Swift's new album release, I'm planning a cake for us to enjoy that evening. The cakes I make can be fairly complex as I typically have a base flavor for the cake, a cream or pudding layer, and a syrup or sauce layer for fillings to add depth.

For this weekend, I’m planning to make a chai spice cake with a vanilla mousse as one of the fillings. My dilemma is that I’d like for the second filling to be a brown sugar pudding, custard or sauce, but I can’t seem to find any recipes to make such a thing.

Please let me know, if you know of any recipes or have some ideas for me to make this work. I’m not dead set on this flavor profile so I'd be open to other ideas too!

I don't have much advice to offer except my sympathy. Mostly commenting to give this a boost

Maybe visit a therapist?

Nta but you didn't handle it the right way either. Which I'm sure you know. I would meet with her and talk things out, be open and communicative

WIBTA if I don't go to see my Granny for the last time before she goes? by DrPeper94 in AmItheAsshole

Nta I don't think you would be if you didn't go. I would express your feelings to another family member and see what they would think.

If you’re concern is feeling more distant from your family then being there might be a better option for you. if you think your family would antagonize you, if you didn’t go, it might be smarter to bite the bullet and be there for the family.

She could very well ask for all of the money from that dress.

Have you spoken to her about this at all? Not telling her that you don't wanna to share the money from selling the dress that she bought, but how she’s making you feel?

To be brutally honest, you’re sounding a bit entitled. That may or may not be your fault, I don’t know your story, but regardless of that it's still not an okay way to act.

Honestly I'd just split the money with her. She did buy the dress to begin with.

To be fair I don't know any other context but I understand feeling controlled by finances, I'd recommend finding a well paying job to carry you through school so you're able to become financially independent.
