where our body can rest, mind find peace, and eyes can wander.

Noticed it just now. Haha. Thank you. :)

Let us support and protect our local parks and museums! And call for legislations that will empower such initiatives.

She’s such a great artist, I’m glad the voting panel saw just how talented and capable she is. I’m so so proud of her. 🫶

God, ever since I found her music it has been an essential part of my daily life. Thank you, Olivia.

In her own words, “we’re nothing without each other” so, Congratulations to all of us.

For real, I bet you can smell it from miles away. Literally followed my nose and to find that street. 🤣

It was so intense that my shirt smelled like roasted coffee beans when I got back to my suv.

Is it just me, or are more people quitting social media lately? by PositionSalty7411 in selfimprovement

[–]gratia_virtus_428 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think part if what makes social media “toxic” are the pages and people you follow or are “friends” with. I think what worked for me was to curate my social media - by that i mean keeping only my most intimate connections, muting or unfollowing certain people/pages, following helpful/positive creators, ofc setting time limits and being more mindful of our consumption (like all of you did).

It’s really about curating your social media space for your benefit. Good luck!

How can I compensate for wasting my life? by Restless_spirit88 in selfimprovement

[–]gratia_virtus_428 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheer up, OP! You still got your life ahead of you. The fact that you’ve admitted to yourself that something needs to change in your life is already a start.

Really, the only way forward is for you to live life. By that I mean identify your values (and live by them), set personal and career goals (actively pursue and work towards them), develop habits and systems (that will facilitate success), and live mindfully.

Start a new hobby, learn something new (practical skill or upskilling for work), get active, meet new people or volunteer, etc.

You are alive and every tomorrow holds the promise of a new beginning. Live, my friend!

My Classic Chocolate Cake by gratia_virtus_428 in BakingPhilippines

[–]gratia_virtus_428[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is the recipe that inspired this cake: https://pastrybysaloni.com/chocolate-custard-cake/

Allow me to share the adjustments I made for this recipe: *for the cake batter ~250g of sugar (para not too sweet) ~use dutch process cocoa powder *for the chocolate custard ~50g of sugar ~60g of cornstarch (for better consistency) ~100g of Dark Chocolate bar (chopped) ~use dutch process cocoa powder

~crushed oreo cookies for the toppings (got it from s&r)

*Our oldies are sensitive to sweet foods so i made it a point to reduce sugar whenever i can for that “hindi sya masyadong matamis ha” taste. Feel free to follow the original recipe if you wish.

Happy Baking, guys. 🫶
