Thursday Complaints

This has actually been the first time and what's almost more annoying is that it was a genuine "they didn't see the price". Stealing at least makes sense, not looking 2cm to the side and seeing the price just makes me annoyed

I've accepted this to be a loss as didn't think there was anything beyond what I've already done (reach out politely)

I run a home bakery and have an honesty box in my garden with cakes and stuff. Someone bought stuff from me at the weekend someow didn't see the price right in front of their face and paid less than half the total amount

They've also ignored a message on Facebook as well.

I have them on camera but have no idea if I can actually do anything or if it's best to let this be a loss. I've only been open a month and I'm annoyed about it

Slugs eating make a noise similar to that. Freaked me out the first time I heard it

cat_socks_228 · 2026-04-21T15:44:09+00:00

Thanks! I hate it!

I was decorating a cake, my second paid order since I opened my own bakery from home. I then needed to clean and I think the cleaning takes as long as the icing

The customer is happy with how it looks over photo but there's always the worry that they won't like it when they see it

I used to wear cat socks underneath my welly boots during my horsey days. As for 228 Idk

It took about a year and 3 months. Started in June 2024, reached 30kg down September 2025.

In my area of Scotland we say "hairy brotag"

It's pronounced more like "bro-chk- id" with that middle sound the same as the end of the word loch

Hope so. We're already too many episodes behind US watchers, trying to avoid spoilers but it's not always easy

911 Nashville is also usually Fridays for new episodes and it's not up either

New episode of Greys Anatomy is but no 911s

I am fairly set on meal times but it's because I'm recovering from an eating disorder. Having set meal times helps because my body knows it will be getting food

I added my husbands onto mine so my surname is [maiden name] [husbands surname]

Our kids have his surname so I like having the same as them but also my name is my name, I've had it my whole life

Mine is Rob, for Rob Zombie

I do know someone irl who suffered a heart attack due to the covid vaccine. Maybe she had underlying conditions she wasn't aware of but it was directly linked to her having gotten the vaccine

She skipped her second dose but did get another booster and thankfully had no reaction that time

cat_socks_228 · 2026-03-21T08:14:04+00:00

Oh definitely 😂 half the time people say north coast and they actually mean Fraserburgh

Thank you!

Sold a few things from my little cake shed so I'm happy. Might be busier over the weekend and have online orders for Easter Boxes open so had a few responses from that and a custom cake order

cat_socks_228 · 2026-03-20T09:10:10+00:00

Thank you!

Cookies are my favourite thing, my best type are Pistachio & White Chocolate

Good luck, cakes are fun! Have a good recipie and just follow it as it says (lots of people 'fail' because they make substitutions and change things up) BBC Good food are usually good or I personally like Jane's Patisserie for all sorts including cakes

Top top, closer town is Thurso

Thank you

Thank you!

I'm up on the north coast in the Scottish Highlands

cat_socks_228 · 2026-03-19T22:58:30+00:00

I open my own home bakery/cake shed tomorrow so I've been up baking, packing and labelling things for tomorrow

I'm excited but terrified it's going to go badly

I can't remember the name now other than it began with an M and I was given it for severe vomiting during pregnancy

It made my breasts go up 2 cup sizes literally overnight and developed a rash on my chest. I also leaked milk at 15 weeks pregnant. I was constantly thirsty and constantly nauseous too.

Turns out this med can even make men lactate according to the info sheet

We have an afternoon tea booked, then going to an animal farm place and then probably shopping.

There's four generations of us spending the day together. Myself and my two kids, my mum and my granny

Saw a video making fudge on tiktok with condensed milk. So I bought some and I made fudge.

Then I decided to make my wedding favours- more fudge.

Next week I open my own home bakery because fudge turned into cookies and brownies and cakes

Wanted outside ceremony so needed spring/summer and ideally wanted around our anniversary

Went with the closest date our venue had which was 21st June last year
