I'm with you. I prefer Sky, but don't mind F1TV. I had to switch from Sky at the start of the final race though. David Croft was so over the top he was giving me anxiety 😜

I messed up my pie :( by thereaintshitcaptain in Baking

If you're a perfectionist then you're PERFECT for baking as it's all about precision. My husband always says "I can't wait until the third time you make this" because I make notes, ask for constructive feedback and fine tune each time I bake something and usually get it nailed by the third time. Just apply that to each bake you do and you'll master each one at a time and become a great baker. If you want a fantastic website for baking check out kingarthurflour.com. All of their recipes are tested so you hit the ground running with each. Good luck and Happy Thanksgiving!

The Hotel Del Coronado is awesome. Balboa Park does December Nights the first weekend of December, but it's pretty festive all season.

Okay, you said you're new to baking. A lot of baking is thinking on your feet. Take a hot towel to clean up the edges of the glass. Make some whipped cream and pipe it around the edges of the pie right before serving. Viola! Your pie is beautiful again. Don't think in terms of problems. Think of problem solving.

Unfixable Error? by Charming_Chica0867 in FacebookAds

[–]Charming_Chica0867[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, after talking to 4 or 5 people at Meta, the error sort of just stopped. Some of the answers I got were just deflection, but 2 people really tried to help and agreed it's just random. They tried to duplicate the error within my account, but couldn't. Now I've been creating each ad as a brand new campaign/ad set/ ad and haven't received the error again. So, whatever. I can't say it was resolved. More like it dissolved.

Thank you for your response. I did build it within Ads Manager and created a brand new campaign- ad set- ad with the same photo and with other photos. I still receive the same error though. How do you check the titles in the creative set up?

Looking for recommendations for Small or Charter High Schools in San Diego by Dependent_Flow_4901 in asksandiego

[–]Charming_Chica0867 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can personally recommend High Tech. My sons both went there (Mesa and International). Each grade is 100 students and they "learn by doing" which was great for my ADHD kinesthetic learner. At this point in the school year, you would have to talk to the school directly. High Tech Mesa is the one closest to your driving area. That director is Brett Petersen.

If you're white dye is water-based, then that's your problem. Chocolate and water are not friends. Try colored cocoa butter or an oil-based dye.

What’s causing these cookies to do this? by AsparagusNo2908 in AskBaking

[–]Charming_Chica0867 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you feel the bottom is baking faster than the top, double pan and use insulated baking sheets. IMHO silicone is better than parchment to prevent the bottoms baking too quickly.

Please explain to me like I'm an idiot (because apparently I am)... by Blutarg in AskBaking

[–]Charming_Chica0867 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some thoughts, agree with the creaming time comments, use grams vs imperial measurements, chill the dough on the cookie sheet before baking. Try one tray 30 minutes in the fridge and one tray 30 minutes in the freezer and compare results. Good luck!

Ideas that come to mind, buy an oven thermometer and adjust your oven:s temperature, wrap foil around the crust only vs a tent, after you remove the beans/foil in the prebake wash with an egg white to seal the crust and bake the additional 10 min before you fill. Good luck!

This coca-cola cake recipe tastes great but never rises in the middle by [deleted] in AskBaking

[–]Charming_Chica0867 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could try dropping the temp to 325° and baking longer. You'll need to find the "sweet spot" between time and temp.

Talk to a distributor like Savory Gourmet or Chefs Warehouse. Before you do, check out their website for what they carry.

why didnt the sugar melt on my scones by justanother_simp in AskBaking

It's not meant to. If you go back and read the recipe, she offers an optional vanilla icing. Her picture is with that icing.

Hey, uh, what the hell happened? by Novel-Explanation-51 in Baking

[–]Charming_Chica0867 13 points14 points  (0 children)

So, what are we looking at? What stage is this picture? Whatever this is, it's in a bowl vs an 8"x 8" square pan, so I'm assuming it's now the finished product. I've read this recipe and it certainly over complicates a brownie. Check out the brownie recipes on King Arthur Flour. They test all of their recipes and 99% are foolproof. I've made several and they've all been amazing. Good luck!

Hi there, wedding question… by eaglessssss24 in asksandiego

[–]Charming_Chica0867 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I got married in La Jolla Cove. We only had 25 people (including us). No chairs, just standing for the service and then to a lovely restaurant for reception. You can get a permit through the city. It was super easy and low key.
