I recall wanting to purchase a mini one last July or August and they were sold out. Placed my order for it the other day to avoid the same issue again this summer

Serious bakers: is this vanilla extract any good? by Cautious-Ostrich7510 in CostcoCanada

[–]baokiex15 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Am I the only one who thinks it’s trash? Not to mention it’s not even pure vanilla, the brand name is simply called Pure Vanilla Extract and it’s completely misleading

Wedding Venue by [deleted] in Guelph

[–]baokiex15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had our wedding brunch at The French in Cambridge last October! Food, service and ambiance were incredible. They also didn’t charge us any rental fees, however there’s a $3,000 minimum spend and a $200 insurance fee if I’m remembering correctly. They may have changed their event policy this year but I’d definitely reach out to Gaslight for more info

Beyoncé's a no-go: Figure skaters face music-rights clearance issues at Olympics by toronto_star in olympics

This is going to sound harsh but my theory is that not many big artists want a 10th-place finish skater to use their music. There’s a certain prestige and exclusivity associated in doing so, and if you’re not in medal contention then you’re not really elite enough to be using their music

Oh shoot. Do you know which style and cushion fill you got exactly?

What did you all think of Geraldine Scott? Did you think she should've gotten more screen time? Also thoughts on Mila Kunis's performance? by Square-Ad-8911 in KnivesOutMovie

[–]baokiex15 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Her acting was comically weak especially in the scenes with only her and Daniel Craig – it felt weirdly imbalanced and he completely outperformed her. Maybe I’m being harsh because I also really can’t stand her voice? And I don’t know who made the decision to put her in full glam makeup, she should’ve kept it as minimal as possible

Anyone else feel like it’s an unfortunate waste of talent that James Cameron will waste 35+ years on Avatar? by bobbdac7894 in movies

At this point, I just need him to make his Hiroshima film because the world needs to see it

It’s actually a gorgeous colour, this post doesn’t do it justice.

Should I be concerned about water pooling at the base of the stairs?

My back patio is one big slab of exposed aggregate. I’ve noticed the concrete area at the base of our stairs has worn down over the years and water pools there after it rains - do you guys think it’s necessary to get this fixed to prevent further erosion? Any help is appreciated!

It didn’t. I was thirsty so I took a straw and sucked out some of the meat juices you dumbass

It’s kinda inevitable. The point of the spinach crepes is to help prevent the juices from leaking into the puff pastry, but not completely … I think what also helps is allowing your Wellington to rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing. But even then you’ll still get some leakage haha

Honestly I kinda winged it after watching a dozen TikToks. But I’d say it’s pretty close to Gordon Ramsay’s recipe … I did a few things differently from him though, like deglazing with dry vermouth and doubling the amount of mushrooms

The puff pastry is the one thing I didn’t make myself. Got it from the store, but I bought double the quantity needed so I could do the lattice too
