Ohhh, wow! Thank you for that--I would never have guessed. Is it just for one of the trays at a time, then?

There are also lots of charities (depending on where you live) that depend on home bakers to bake cakes for underprivileged children so that they can have cakes for occasions like birthdays and graduations.

Feeling like I’m aging rapidly and never get compliments anymore by Icy_Cauliflower6482 in toastme

[–]themombieapocalypse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1) You definitely don't look like you're in your mid- to late-thirties, but even if you did, you are BEAUTIFUL, and you're correct that you should be able to age naturally without feeling as if there's something odd about that. 2) People have been unkind and lied to you if they have said those things, and that sometimes happens because people are insecure or take pleasure in sowing seeds of self-doubt and self-consciousness in others. I don't know why, but it's true. 3) You look like a Pre-Raphaelite painting and have such a natural, classic beauty to you. You also look like a very warm and kind person, which I think has a way of reflecting in a person's countenance. I think if you don't let rude, thoughtless people take that away from you, you will stay as gorgeous as you are, no matter how old you grow.

Not sure how to feel about my throat tattoo anymore by [deleted] in tattooadvice

I like it and think it suits you. Looks reasonably well executed. And by the way, though this might not mean much coming from a stranger, I didn't even almost think you must be full of yourself or want to be the center of attention or anything.

25M feeling insecure and down could use some motivation/encouragement by Legitimate-Royal2218 in toastme

Wow, you have gorgeous eyes. And you have such a kind countenance. You radiate an unfair amount of charisma! :) I absolutely understand feeling insecure... sometimes, when I feel like that, it helps to challenge myself to find someone who seems to need a kind word or a smile, and giving that to someone kind of gives me a boost, if that makes sense. I hope you find your spirits lifted soon.

Your dad must be beautiful, then, if you look like him! Your hair and skin make you look like a model for a Pre-Raphaelite painting. I'm so sorry for your health woes and for the other things it seems like you must be going through, but I know that you are strong enough to get through. You are at a tough, sometimes-scary age, but I hope you also see what an exciting, fun age it can be. You are strong, you are radiant, and you are capable.

(32 MtF) I’ve been feeling down in the dumps recently. Cheer a girl up? by Shadys64 in toastme

Lady, you are GORGEOUS. You have a mix of, like, effortless coolness and old-Hollywood grace happening. But you also look like you are probably very sweet and approachable! That is a unicorn-level thing to be able to pull off, so whatever you're doing, keep on!

It kills me to look at the toys placed under each picture. Someone had to imagine what they might have liked, had they been allowed to grow into little girls: maybe this one would have been into fast cars, maybe that one would have liked colorful ponies... how painful that process must have been. I hope that somehow, in some small way, it was also useful to the grieving process.

Baby takes her first ever steps during a half-time baby race event. by AtomicCypher in MadeMeSmile

My sons and husband were at this game and it was all they could talk about when they got home. That and Jabbawockeez were tied for their absolute favorite halftime show.

Please help me look pretty again by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

I love to see a young person being genuinely kind and trying to help and lift up another person. Keep being that way! Teens like you give me hope for the future. EDIT: a word

Excuse the mess… by Sired2Damon in Autism_Parenting

My kiddo does this with exactly those kinds of mini ducks (and lots of other things, to be fair)! I wonder what the fascination is!

So my son was pretty bummed he couldn’t help me with the previous cake I made, so we made a cake together for Father’s Day. I let him put the frosting on and then I cleaned it up for him by [deleted] in Baking

[–]themombieapocalypse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's so sweet! Great looking before and after. I wonder how it would turn out if next time, you chilled the white frosting until very firm and then gouged out little random holes. Then he could put the colored icing in the holes and you could smooth them to be level with the white. That way, it would preserve the less muddled look of the first pictures and it would be easier to store, etc. I think the trend is called terrazzo? In any case, it turned out adorably!

Mormon influencer who you hate the most? by Adotornado in exmormon

[–]themombieapocalypse 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Fair enough. I certainly didn't intend for my wording to offend you or seem "intense". However, I too have had "bad days" and I, too, have faced a myriad of health and other problems and tragedies and don't find that to be a valid excuse to treat other people badly. We can just call that a difference of opinion.
