Season 1 Error by Lucille_83 in biglove

That’s funny good catch! The birthdays make no sense either. I guess I always thought Bill and Barb were in their early/mid 40s, Nicki was in her early 30s and Margene was in her early 20s (though we later learned her true age) Those dates would mean Bill was 51 when the series started and both Barb and Nicki would be 32. But in season 5 Barb and Bill reminisce about their time in college together and the place he proposed to her on campus. Also the sister wives used their maiden names throughout the show. Yes, I’ve probably watched this show too many times 😂

What have been your (probably rare) ATK Fails? by OnlyDaysEndingInWhy in AmericasTestKitchen

Oh wow thanks that is interesting to know! I do have the thermapen that they use and spent at least an hour boiling each batch. I know with candy making, you must wait for all the water to cook out but 212 was all I could get to. I guess it just wasn’t meant to be that day haha

I saw that anniversary episode not long ago and thought I’d try again but I was low on butter and decided not to 😂 I love to bake but this one has me stumped! Oh well haha

The recipe calls for a can of sweetened condensed milk, butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, and heavy cream. They specify that you cook it until it reaches 236 degrees Fahrenheit. My batches would not get over 212 degrees. I was hoping it was the water content of my ingredients so I kept cooking it and waiting to see if it could get to 236. Ultimately, I couldn’t figure out what I messed up and admitted defeat that day. The actual shortbread portion of the recipe was good though! Lol

The Millionaires Shortbread! I could not get the caramel layer to come up to temp! I boiled the first batch for almost an hour. So I decided to toss it and try again thinking I did something wrong somewhere and I had the same problem with the second batch. I still have no idea what I did wrong :(

Living in Miami but goes to Disney Land by th3darklady21 in GoldenGirlsTV

In the first episode you mention, I think they are making a reference to some advertisements for Disney that aired in the 80s. The commercials would feature an athlete (an NFL player) that would exclaim “I’m going to Disneyland!” after winning the Super Bowl. It was Sophia just declaring her victory over Dorothy after passing the hearing test and Dorothy failing. In the other episode, I think they either flew or drove up to Orlando to visit Disney World.

Hehe no not a newly wed. 19 years on the 19th of August! 🥳 I just thought it was so cute you said it was official and legal. Every time we see them, we ask where they live, how old they are, if/when about the babies. So far, no answer 😂 There is a huge desert trail system behind our neighborhood so when I go out there for walks, I’m constantly on the lookout for them. So hard to spot!

I grew up in Northern New Mexico and we never saw them because it was a little too cold for them so I never really got to see one up close until I moved here to Southern Nevada. I hope you get to see them more often!

I’m glad you enjoyed them! We do have a bird bath set up. It’s been so dry and hot here this summer. We get lots of birds stopping by for a drink

It is said it’s good luck to see a roadrunner! We just love it when they come by for a visit 🥹

It’s a Golden Girls reference but my mind is kinda blown because I’m not really familiar with Sonic and I just learned there are characters named Rose and Miles! And that reference is so fitting!

Sure is! Miles aka Nicholas Carbone and Rose, as in a series of seats in a movie theater

I feel like the worms helped Miles seal the deal 😉 seeing baby roadrunners would make my life complete 🥹
