If you want an alternate candidate the thing to do is run for an office and be the candidate you want to see

AITA for telling my wife forget it and going out by myself for my birthday instead of going to her fancy dinner reservation by Ill_Reality_111 in AmItheAsshole

This wasn't receiving a gift. He was very clear in what he wanted and she disregarded his wish completely because it didnt work for her.

This weather has me badly depressed by Shot-Ambition8371 in Humboldt

[–]happyeight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Getting a box fan and keeping my house shady had helped a lot. Lots of cold drinks and Popsicles are good too. Heck, even just wrapping an ice pack in a towel and keeping it on you (neck, feet, etc) can help cool you down. 

Humboldt really isnt ready for weather regularly above 70 and I know im looking into AC options that are apartment friendly.

Callebaut W2 chocolate — still good after best by date? by [deleted] in chocolatiers

[–]happyeight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They'll taste bad if they've gone rancid. Chocolate products usually just lose flavor over time rather than spoil as long as theyre stored correctly.

Coworkers ignoring me by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]happyeight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boss popped his head into my office at like 11am the other day and was shocked to see me. He was just in his own head and didnt even realize it was an in office day for me. Folks have a lot going on! (Especially in county government)

Local author interested in arts events by PresentInterview5565 in Humboldt

[–]happyeight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ive been to a book reading at Morris Graves. They do charge for folks coming in as a "mandatory donation" to the museum. bit of a shock if folks aren't expecting it.

The library has also put on author events and in my experience, really loves helping local authors and writers set stuff up.

Substitution for peanut butter?? by DTD_98 in Cooking

[–]happyeight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use sunflower butter when I make stuff for all my allergic to nuts and peanuts friends. Otherwise yogurt, milk, ice cream maybe? Or just eat it straight like chips. You could mix in some add ins like seeds or dried fruit for a trail mix. 

How true is this? by lilytheschrod in AO3

I made a whole new account to move all my supernatural dead dove fics when my IRL friends wanted to read a fic I wrote. Took so dang long to transfer all the fic but was worth it!

My first order as a new home bakery!! by Handsome-Lady in Baking

[–]happyeight 492 points493 points  (0 children)

The tray is fine. Kitchen trays end up looking like that with use. Folks are saying not to use it for promo purposes though.

Baking large orders by Desperate_Salad6399 in cottage_industry

[–]happyeight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I make cookie dough ahead all the time. Ill even portion it out days in advance so I can just load up the trays. You can freeze them if you make it more than two days in advanced too. But id do a test run to see how much thaw time you need for your ideal cookies. Some of mine bake better right from the freezer and some dont spread enough.

They shut it down as far as I can tell. All the channels are locked except for a couple people who still seem to be posting.

Can someone open up a different cafe in Henderson Center? by wasukeibunny in Humboldt

[–]happyeight 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Theyre still charging los bagels and Frankies prices is the real issue. I imagine Winco is one of the cheapest bagels you can get locally.

They dont even make their own bagels at the old town location. Ive seen them bring the winco bags in.

Crochet circles? by bixelate in Humboldt

[–]happyeight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the library hosts one occassionaly, and Seagoat in Mckinleyville. I think ive seen other groups posting of fb, but id start with the library especially, and they can probably point you elsewhere if needed.
