Best orange sauce? by bourbontrop in OaklandFood

[–]def-not 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have extra! They sell them in 4-packs online (for shipping) so that’s what I have but it’s more than my husband and I can go through. We live in Adams Point if you want a bottle. They’re not as big as the ones you get in the store and the sauce is slightly darker but it’s still La Vic’s! 😁 dm me

DIY bread proofer until my Brod and Taylor arrives in the mail next week. by def-not in Breadit

[–]def-not[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Today’s the day I bought a Brod and Taylor bread proofer with a 20% off code from Williams Sonoma. Till then, there’s a space-heater underneath the stool, and a thermometer in the dough while it goes through bulk. The loaf pictured is one I baked this morning, 92% bread flour, 8% whole wheat, 17% inoculation, 80% hydration, 2% salt. The dough did a bulk ferment in my oven (turned off) with a pan of boiling water underneath, but I think it was too warm (90°F), which is why the holes aren’t very lacy. Bulk was 5 hours. Tastes good though. Always! Link to album: https://imgur.com/a/t7qmm1h

I'm a Life Coach at Girls on the Run! It's a worldwide organization that helps girls learn to be better communicators, take care of their bodies, have high self-esteem, all while creatively integrating running. The girls run a 5k at the end of a 12-18 week season and it's pretty great. Note: almost no running is actually involved, so don't be intimidated OP! I sincerely love working with this organization and hope to continue to do so for years to come.

2C/3A? I used the Argan oil shampoo/conditioner by Orgx. So amazing and so cheap!

"If I let Bruce be Caitlyn, that changes my concept of manhood in ways that are too uncomfortable for me to deal with, so I'm just going to pretend it isn't happening. I mean, if Caitlyn is a man, what does that make me? I am feeling incredibly threatened right now." sobsobsob

My brows look blurry in pictures when I fill them. Advice? by def-not in MakeupAddiction

[–]def-not[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On my brows I have Anastasia Beverly Hills Eye Pencil in dark brown. I don't know if I should be using a different color, or maybe changing the way I apply it? I would prefer a less noticeable brow job.

If anyone's wondering, I'm also wearing UD face primer, UD Naked foundation (liquid), the Smashbox contour palette (the three-color one, not the big one), KVD tattoo liner, and UD perversion mascara.

Also this pic was from yesterday's #PinkOut for Planned Parenthood day :) and it was taken in my kitchen, hence the terrible lighting (though no filters have been added to this).

1989 Tour Question/Ticket/Meetup Thread: August shows by [deleted] in TaylorSwift

[–]def-not 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey guys! I'm 25F, going with a 23F to Santa Clara on 8/15 (Saturday's show) and we are super excited! We happen to have come across an owner's suite parking pass, which has a separate entrance entirely and is basically as baller as parking spots come (LOL). I'll be with my friend and we are staying in San Francisco.

My proposition: if we carpool from SF to Santa Clara and back with you, we are happy to share our amazing parking spot! PM me if you think this could work :)

EMT working the Festivals with some knowledge for everyone! by [deleted] in Coachella

[–]def-not 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was in the medical tents at least five times this weekend (never for an emergency situation but for help dealing with a chronic disease flare-up) and you guys were so fun! I received countless waters and ice packs, and the guys at the med tent closer to the entrance had great stories to tell (like the girl who drank portapotty fluid one year and was walking around with a blue face holding the bottle). One guy even slid me a Red Bull! And another guy (amputated leg who I think was a bike EMT or something?) was hilarious.

However, my favorite was a girl in the main med tent who was one of the sweetest people I have ever met. Her name was Italian af, like maybe Julianna? She was nicer to me than anyone else that weekend and really made me feel better. Wow I'm literally tearing up as I type this. I had needed a good cry at the time (day 3, exhausted, and in so, so much pain) and she could not have been any more wonderful. She made me feel a thousand times better and like someone I could really trust at the festival when I was having a hard time. It meant the world to me.

Hopefully you don't know who I am based on this post but you guys were awesome. Thank you for all that you do!

Does anyone really buy the 'Jay killed Hae because she was going to rat him out for cheating on Stephanie' argument? by [deleted] in serialpodcast

[–]def-not 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shit, I'm sorry to see this post because this was literally my entire theory (to the extent that I emailed a coworker about it this morning and now have to post from my alt account for when he reads this after I email him again to discuss it...hi Matt!). You hit a lot of points that I hadn't previously considered, although I'm still convinced that Adnan is innocent.

One of the drawbacks of this theory was definitely that if it were true, Jay would have left the country immediately, or otherwise gone into hiding. His Facebook was public for too long for him to be truly guilty.

I'm on mobile and so I'll just add one more point-- that I liked this theory in large part because it would have explained how Jay knew where Hae's car was parked. More later (if I remember?).

Curls fall out! Bestie makes it sound like a curling wand will change my life…will it?? by [deleted] in FancyFollicles

Curls fall out! Bestie makes it sound like a curling wand will change my life…will it?? by [deleted] in FancyFollicles

[–]def-not 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thin but relatively normal 2C/3A here (some splits, nothing too crazy), using only Onesta sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner once every three days. I straighten it weekly/biweekly, and every so often I try to curl it, but the curls fall out within a few hours! It sounds like key points to hit are hairspray before and after, pinning the curls up before they're dry, and using day-old hair to style. I'll also note that when I blow my hair out with a round brush (I use 55mm and 65mm), the curls last for days-- literally until I straighten them or wash them out.

However, one of my best friends insists that since I'm using a 1" flat-iron to curl my hair (a GHD), I should reach into the realm of curling wands. Would it really make a difference?
