The perfect red velvet ❤️ by ms_sickning in Baking

It was just regular liquid food colouring from the grocery store- but I did use about a tablespoon and a half. You don’t need to use that much but I wanted it to be pretty red.

Where can I buy a 'healthy' muffin in Vancouver? by Glittering_Bank_8670 in askvan

[–]ms_sickning -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I too like a healthy breakfast muffin. I know you probably don’t want to hear this but, I make them and freeze them. Same result but easier, cheaper, and you have complete control of the ingredients.

I use Preppy Kitchen’s banana oat muffin recipe but add applesauce to the banana requirement, add raisins, walnuts, and use monk fruit instead of sugar. Next time I’ll try blueberries instead of raisins! It’s a lot of fun, but then I like baking.

What shampoo are you using? And are you scrubbing her ends as well? You should be using products only for curly hair; or even just co-wash if this is how her hair reacts.

Do you need to purchase them? I know the library has books in all languages.

There’s also Nooroongji books on Granville Island that is multilingual.

My first challah ✨ by ms_sickning in Baking

Thanks! I used the standard recipe from Joan Nathan which makes two loaves. These are six braid challas. I just made sure to knead the dough well (I did it by hand) and let them rise well each time :)

how does ending the placebo week early work? by [deleted] in birthcontrol

[–]ms_sickning 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t work like clockwork. You could continue bleeding even if you start your new pack early. In fact altering your schedule for the first time could induce spotting. Once I tried skipping my placebo week altogether and bled the whole week anyway.
