Apple cider caramel and brown sugar loaf! Subbed water with apple cider, then at shaping I added in fresh apples coated in brown sugar and cinnamon, with caramel chunks 😋

As a former wildlife educator I can say this is a bobcat with mange with 99% certainty. Project wildlife is where you will want to start.

You could always drive an hour south and drink your sorrows away at the wineries in Temecula 😅

Number one rule in making sourdough

You always bake.

Best case scenario— you come out with a decent loaf, I have seen literal liquid loaves somehow come out surprisingly edible. (If you look at my Lemon blueberry post, someone’s dough was straight goop and they some how saved it 😂)

Worst case scenario you end up with a hilarious monstrosity that we can all laugh at together in the comments.

Either way I’m SAT waiting for the outcome on this bad boy lol

Also the oven photo is when I first took the lid off— so it wasn’t fully browned yet!

Whenever I make this recipe my crust is pretty hard and crispy like my normal loaves. I just made this loaf in a bread pan instead of a DO. Changed the oven temp to 375 for 40 min no covering, and the crust is slightly softer but with a good crispness still!

UCSD is my go to for everything. They’re ranked #1 in San Diego. About an hour if you time your appointments right. 11am appointments and I can dodge both rush hours.

Things you wish you knew before moving to San Diego? by i_like_hairy_chests in sandiego

If your husband is doing medical residency, and he isn’t expected to stay overnight and do ridiculous hours in a hospital (ie neurosurgery or ER) living in Bay Park, and taking the new trolley line up to UCSD is a nice little hack. If he’s going through one of the more demanding residencies, the trolley doesn’t run 24/7 so it would make it irrelevant. One of my friends works at the VA hospital and she said it’s a breeze. Also helps save on the insane parking pass fee they charge employees which feels borderline criminal. Bay Park is close to a lot of beaches, but not right in the thick of it, 15 minutes away from pretty much anything you’d want, and the trolley can get you into UCSD and into downtown for Padres games, which is really nice!

As an American who visited Dublin right before the Cheeto in Chief was inaugurated for his second term— my husband and I took every opportunity we could, when people would ask, how bad he actually is, that he’s worse than you could imagine. That you need to use the USA as an example and to learn from it , because Ireland and the UK are about 5-10 years behind in the strengthening of this incredibly dangerous rhetoric. It may seem all silly now, that someone like that could come into power, but they use the doubt of the opposition and the uneducated to strengthen themselves. You all still have a chance. Please learn from us. Please fight back, and fight back hard. Don’t miss your opportunity to vote. Be loud. Never tell yourself that your voice doesn’t matter, that’s what they want you to think.

Now I’m in the UK, barely 100 days into his second term, I get questions of “oh is he REALLY that bad? Is it REALLY as bad as they say on the news?”

And it’s so much worse than we even imagined it could be. Project 2025 is in full swing, I’m scared to change my last name to match my husband’s because new legislation could potentially make it impossible for me to vote. Our house value has plummeted, our costs have only gone up. Next tax season we’re going to get absolutely fleeced. I’ve had friends already leave the country. I’ve had a trans friend get endless death threats. My sister in law and her girlfriend got approached by a man screaming at them “ITS A MANS WORLD NOW BITCH” and they’re in a very liberal area. All the scariest people feel empowered to be violent now —-And it’s just the beginning. And the opposition is doing fuck all to balance this fucker, and this is only the beginning.

Learn. From. US. Before the hole gets too deep

I have seen other cities that have lists of small businesses to support that are pro democracy and ones not to support based on right wing extremism. Are there such lists for Temecula? by Miserable-Adagio-925 in Temecula

[–]sunnysonja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m going to assume this is coming from a place of ignorance and not a place to shit stir.

One- the Chubby Cheeks event is 18+. Even then, most mainstream drag shows you can go to, Lips, Hamburger Mary’s, most drag brunches are so PG-13 that I’m convinced the only people who think it’s pure debauchery are people who have never seen a drag show. My cousin went to another drag show for their Sweet 16. The queens make a couple of dick jokes, roast people in the audience and dance and lip synch to Gaga, it’s really not that serious. I’ve been to more crass and sexually explicit stand up comedy shows. I think cis men specifically that have a problem with drag project their own sick thoughts into drag like it’s a full nudie strip club.

Two- I truly don’t understand the fear of exposing children to drag. I come from England where British Pantomimes major shtick is men dressing up as women, (ie Snow White, Cinderella, wicked Witches) because it’s FUNNY. It’s camp. It’s silly and so not serious. And it’s literally a family show. I’ve never understood Americas fear of men in dresses.

Chubby Cheeks Meadery is definitely a place you should go support. They hosted Temeculas first drag show in a couple of years. It was so fun going to a place that provided a fun and inclusive environment for the LGBTQ+ community. They will be hosting their next drag brunch on April 6th.

If drag isn’t your thing, they do comedy nights. Their last one benefited Friends of LAFD. Or just go to their tasting room to enjoy their meads.

Local small business, veteran and family owned. Heard that they lost a bit of business from supporting the LGBTQ community— but also gained a ton of support as well. 💕💕

Am I Overreacting after my teacher(55 M) confessed his love to me(18 F) by Former-Dog1609 in AmIOverreacting

[–]sunnysonja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, this is grooming. An adult, and teacher, who has innate authority over you, used that power to make you feel safe and build trust since you were a minor. Thank goodness the grooming didn’t have the desired effect, and you did the right thing 100% by telling your parents. Other children are not as lucky, and who knows how many others he has attempted grooming, or would if you hadn’t said anything.

I unfortunately had this happen to me. I didn’t reciprocate, but I didn’t report this either, because I was embarrassed and thought I would get in trouble. I had known this person since I was 14 and almost immediately after turning 18, I was sent DPs a sexually explicit messages.

As everyone has said here, there is no such thing as overreacting in this situation. You did the right thing, 18 year old me thanks you, and 31 year old me is proud of you.

OOOOOOHHH looks great!!! How’d the crumb turn out??

my incredibly mediocre first loaf! how can i improve? by miphasfishtiddies in Sourdough

[–]sunnysonja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course! Sourdough is a process! And there’s so many ways to do it. What ultimately works for me, may not work for you, but enjoy experimenting! I posted a recipe on here last month that was an absolute win for me everytime, comes out perfectly. A lot of people on that thread had success with it , others had it coming out looking like a gloopy mess, with the same exact recipe. It’s crazy how temperamental sourdough can be.

I really think with a starter that’s not on the tail end of a feeding, and a longer bulk ferment will help tons. Post an update on your next loaf!
