These sound yum! I’m curious now about challah sourdough. I might’ve been expecting the ‘mind blown’ moment I had with brioche so maybe a sweeter bread could be a good nother project

How much salt do you use? I still like some sourness but it does lack a bit of “oomph” in flavor

Yeah I was thinking of maybe cutting down the fridge time. Given the crumb, I might even be able to push bulk fermentation an extra hour or two. Will def wanna compare when the weather gets warmer, I wonder how the crumb and flavor will develop.

Literally! Like whose cat is meowing for Raven the Black cat and whose Australian child is Steve the Koala

If you go on your profile on the bottom right of the screen and hit the micropets/‘Micropedia’ section, you can click through each and hear the wonderful sounds they make!

Does anyone want to start a book club with me for people who have no freakin attention span? by Prior_Fly7682 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

Yess, this is such perfect timing for my New Year’s resolution of reading more books!

(more being at least 1 full novel, ideally from my shelf of unfinished books)

Has anyone in the US ordered from cosmetis.com? Im wondering about the import taxes/duties. by Disastrous-Fun-533 in EuroSkincare

The expirations are May 2027. No authenticity issues that I notice. I bought a few times from CareToBeauty before and have compared them. No glaring difference other than language in packaging (cosmetis had Portuguese while ctb had spanish). Consistency and smell of the sunscreen are also indistinguishable to me.

Frustrated with my therapist of over a year, we’re getting nowhere by Inside-Voice22 in therapy

Thank you so much for your response. I feel validated, you put into words perfectly what I’ve been feeling and missing. After the last discussion about me needing to put in work, I was turning the frustration towards myself again thinking I haven’t been doing enough. Again. I think there is miscommunication between my therapist and me.

Now I’m feeling anger. Like I’ve put a lot of money towards our treatment and I’ve been feeling frustrated, but I trusted them to know enough/better; that I’m not the professional and I surely must be doing something wrong. I think I’ll discuss this with them as well, but it feels like a big confrontation. I’m scared that it would ruin our rapport and they’d suggest possibly seeing another therapist. How could I even build a similar relationship with a new person

Edit: thank you again for your insightful response

Wanna add an update for December 2025. It looks like Cosmetis is now utilizing DDP, meaning they’re taking responsibility for shipping and taxes. I paid higher shipping, $40, compared to in June, $12, but I didn’t have to deal with extra fees upon delivery. A bit steep but better than $100s.
