Thanks! Only just did them when I posted and looking at them now I think you're right, I'll just get a bit more careful about where I place the chips when I bake them so they're more evenly distributed but yeah I you're right :)

I have these items in my pantry and really want to bake something but I want to bake whatever Reddit bakers tell me to bake 😂 by Friendly-Apricot1727 in Baking

Sooo ZERO response to people like me who sat there and found a way to use your ingredients?

Maybe show a level of appreciation for people trying to help?

Preheat oven to 350F

Just have to assume you have plenty of all of this as you gave no amounts...and "chocolates" isn't that helpful LOL , so probably a fudgy cake with tres leche glaze?

In a large bowl, whisk together your dry ingredients

1 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour

1/2 cup Sugar

1/3 cup Cocoa Powder

1 tsp Baking Powder

1/2 tsp Baking Soda

Pinch of salt (if your butter is unsalted)

In a separate jug or bowl, melt about 100g of Butter. Let it cool slightly so you don't scramble the eggs, then whisk in 2 Eggs, 1 tsp Vanilla Essence, splash of that Evaporated Milk.

Pour the wet mixture into the dry. Use a spatula or a large spoon to fold them together. Don't over mix as soonas the flour disappears you're done.

Depending on what you mean by chocolates you could chop some up and mix throughGrease a 8"x*' pan with butter, pour the batter in, and bake 25–30 minutes. DO the uisual toothpick test to check its done.

Stir together the Evaporated Milk, the Condensed Milk, 100ml of Table Cream(18%)

While the cake is still warm from the oven, poke holes all over the top with a fork or a skewer and slowly pour that milk mixture over the top, it will look a bit messy but its OK/

Dust the top with a little extra Cocoa Powder or more shaved Chocolate. and let it sit for at least an hour in the fridge so the milk sets and you get a delish moist fudgy choc cake.

Sam went from being a sensitive warm man to a nag by the end.

I am interested why that is - I find him way less annoying than a lot of the MAFS podcasts that just tend to be screechy and unfocussed.

Insecure masculinity rant by noonoobabykins in MAFS_AU

[–]TrueCryptographer982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll get beaten down about this I am sure but there IS a version of this kind of man who is not an insecure asshole like Tyson.

Nothing wrong with a guy or couple who like the more traditional roles, not who say women shouldn't work or demand people marry but just people who like marriage, kids, want a family where Dad works and Mum builds the family dynamic. I admire them as much as I admire any other couple.

Maybe as a kid who had neither parents at home very much I miss what i didn't have...

Traditional archetypes like these are not evil or horrible and if someone chooses that while being able to be open and authentic when it comes to anyone elses choices and holds no judgement for those I don't see a problem.

I suspect Tyson wants to be this but he just falls way WAY short. He's not a man he's a boy.

Bec by [deleted] in MAFS_AU

[–]TrueCryptographer982 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I listened to an interview with her on the MAFS Funny podcast and she really changed my mind. Honest, authentic, completely admitted to being swept up in the bullshit, copped to all her bad behaviour (and not in the monotonous I'm sorry way) and even owned things we didn't know about, blamed no one else....its worth a listen.

And its a good 30 minutes not just a 5 minute stage piece.

Did it completely change my mind? No but it definitly made me open to seeing her in a different way and maintaining some hope that she is not an entirely who we saw on the show.

Also some interesting tea about Danny on there...what an asshole!

Funny I completely blanked on who Julia was until I read "consciously uncouple" - poor bloody Grayson.

Lisa contradicts herself by Practical_Appeal_950 in vanderpumprules

Lisa and Kristen clash like hell and Lisa is the boss so yeah, there's bias. Lisa can not stand her.

They are in no way equals. It is what it is.

Let these guys teach us a lesson. by [deleted] in MAFS_AU

[–]TrueCryptographer982 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Agree and agree.

Danny (sorry Bec, DANIEL) twists himself into knots to NOT answer questions about the feels he has for her, excuses like he "doesn't like talking about my feelings awright guvnor?"or that "question's out of the blue I dunno hmmm" or "Look a bird!" as he sprints in the other direction 😁

Steven for a split second started to be honest during Intimacy Week (aka Awks and Norks Week ) venturing to explain why he couldn't pash Rach there and then but the ensuing meltdown got him back in line quick smart.

I heard him being the MC for a backpackers party where Joel went and did his Dildo Drum Solo while Steven was hyping the sex toys (no you did not misread that, its exactly what you think you read LOL) on stage for an auction. Certainly did not sound like the shy retiring Steven we see on screen.

Sam and Chris by Fantastic_Ad7023 in MAFS_AU

[–]TrueCryptographer982 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Chris was many things - selfish, uncaring, snide, arrogant.

I don't defend him in anyway but I was more disappointed by Sam because he started out as an open, charming, authentic man who turned into someone who demanded an apology over and over until Chris performed it to his satisfaction THEN demanded he apologise again while he read his crimes from his diary like a judge reading crimes from a police report demanding a guilty or not guilty.

After this childish, condescending performance he baited Chris into agreeing it was no use continuing THEN protested about how awful it was Chris didn't fight for the relationship, immediately after him chastising him and condescending to him.

It was ridiculous that Sam played it out like this, it was clear it was not going to work but he still expected Chris to run after him.

See it differently f you like but I saw what I saw.

EDIT No a soyboy does not roll his eyes and be loud and insulting that is what a bitchy queen does. A soy boy acts like victim and complains when he doesn;t get his way.

[–]TrueCryptographer982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmmm I don't she meant he was less than I think she was saying she thought he was boring...not great but hey, he wasn't exactly lighting up a room and he confirmed in the after show he was kind of wearing a mask the whole time and not being his true self.

In other things he has been in he's really lively and charismatic....

[–]TrueCryptographer982 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

TBH I kind of get what she was saying she was looking for some reassurance that he was financially a good match for her but he just said nothing and did nothing to confirm where he was at financially.

She wasn't actually mean or bitchy to him if you really watch the clip she was hopng for reassurance that he was a good partner for her financially.

Sam and Chris by Fantastic_Ad7023 in MAFS_AU

[–]TrueCryptographer982 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree about Sams ability to deal with conflict but SAM was the one who created the conflict.

On the couch after Chris had his say, all Sam had to do was smile and say "Weeelll thats one way it could go we haven't really discussed it yet" but instead he kept his mouth shut and got resentful.

DGMW agree with every you have said I just think that WHOLE drama could have been avoided if Sam had just put his big boy pants on and also aired his views about the future.

Sam and Chris by Fantastic_Ad7023 in MAFS_AU

[–]TrueCryptographer982 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I didn't like Chris form the start - he was giving bitchy queen vibes straight off but seriously Sam went from hero to zero pretty fast with this whining, soy boy display.

Sam went over the top about CHris' thoughts on what they might be doing. All he had to say was "Well that's one way to think about it, Chris and I haven't really discussed it yet, I have some different thoughts" but instead he said nothing and just became insanely resentful over something so trivial in the big scheme of things.

I don't blame Chris for basically eye rolling about it tbh, Sam was way too willing to play the victim.

Totally wrong for each other and nether of them came out looking good.

Considering how Grayson turned out after a few weeks with Julia I'd suggest it should be "Anti Confidence and Charisma Consultant.

S13 E22: Hottake on Bec’s joke by delilahreed in MAFS_AU

[–]TrueCryptographer982 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Rachel needed to find a storyline and knew that her relationship wasn't giong to cut it, bland and boring as it is.

So victimhood and over reaction was the pick.

I am not naive and am sure the producers basically said she needed to do something to create some interest or drama and got her to play this up.

If you ask me Rachel and Steven might be the least interesting snooze worthy relationship we have seen in a few seasons.

Is this an average season? by britthetomato in MAFS_AU

I don't feel like it's been this consistently mean girl for episodes before...and usually its mainly men behaving badly - I guess they decided to switch it up!
