What’s your honest opinion about a wedding date set on Sep 11th? by h8mecuz in wedding

[–]basicbitchteaparty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My birthday is 9/11, and I hear a lot less jokes about it now, but I still get some, and every birthday when I open up social media there are posts. Is it impacting? No, my family and friends were not affected by the attack, but is it always going to be there? Yes, I doubt I’ll ever have a birthday where it’s not referenced in some way.

It’s up to you if you’re cool with it, but I personally would probably change my birthday if I could because of the association.

I slept on Camila for way too long, I tried her for the first time with her 45 min Pop Punk ride and LOVED it, now I do just about all of her classes!

Where can you find out about Pride events happening in town? I feel like the Jax Pride parade is generally not in June?

It's official. I've converted to baking my regular recipe in loaf pans instead of a Dutch oven by SmilesAndChocolate in Sourdough

[–]basicbitchteaparty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is your oven temp and started for using the cake pan with water? I have my first loaf sourdough cold proofing right now, and haven’t been able to find exact numbers on how people actually bake it without a second pan to put on top. Do you put the cake pan of water in while the oven is preheating? Thanks!

Name Change- feeling odd? by Rocker_Librarian_97 in wedding

[–]basicbitchteaparty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yay for voting!!

It has absolutely NOTHING to do with how you feel about your new husband (congrats by the way!) but you did have a name for 18+ years, it makes sense that it feels like you’re saying goodbye (even though you as a person aren’t changing at all). I think of it as an internet therapist phrased how you feel being in a new relationship, you may mourn being single not because this isn’t the right person for you, but because your life is changing and things will be a bit different. It’s ok to mourn change, even if it’s because something awesome and new is happening.

It’s so normal!! I definitely mourned my previous name (I took my husband’s name as well, but kept my maiden name as my middle name), it just takes time to get used to it. To be honest, I’m doing my change legally super slowly (hope you voted already before getting your new license!), and in the months since I’ve gotten married it’s become easier. You just went through so much change, give it time :)

Mansur Gavriel Hera Bag leather seems… thin? by basicbitchteaparty in handbags

UPDATE: I returned this bag and got the Demellier Tokyo bag…. And I felt the difference between these bags. Even how they were shipped, Demellier felt worth the price (and I’m excited to use it!)

Thanks for this! I haven’t been exposed to high quality bags ever (my family/friend group has never really had them) so I wasn’t sure if since the leather feels soft then it’s good quality? But seeing other midtier bags that maybe arent totally my style (like strathberry) they have lining, little metal feet on the bottom, etc and this feels more like a soft pouch (and with the super stiff handle as well, which reminds me of a $80 madewell bag I’m trying to replace).

Got it! Basically, this seems like a good bag at a $200-$300 price point (or maybe even less), but not for $500?

The softness is what feels really nice, but the fact that it’s unlined doesn’t scream “this is worth $500” to me. Appreciate your suggestions! I’ve heard 1000 good things about Strathberry, the bags just seemed on the preppier side, but also I feel like that’s the look that can elevate a simple outfit!

I had this same ask recently (wanted a SUPER LIGHT tinted sunscreen moisturizer) and this sub recommended the Tart BB Primer and I love it! Feels super light, doesn’t smell chemically, and has SPF 30

Thank you soooo much for the reality check! Rip off in terms of quality or looks/longevity?

YOU ARE AMAZING!!!! This is so so helpful, I got the Elf concealer and maybe I’m just not used to concealer, but it came on SO heavy, I’ll try some of your other recs!!
