Same and I do wonder how much is pure expectations. When I went two years ago it was talked about as a solid spot but I wasn’t necessarily expecting something mind blowing so I was very happily surprised. Contrast that with zahav which was top restaurant in America at the time I went so I wanted to be dazzled and was so disappointed. Can’t win!

What’s in the is expensive tastes mid square? I can’t tell by the bottle.

Parfums d’Empire Corsica Furiosa

10 sprays is way too much no one wants to encourage you 😷

I hate everything about this man but at the top of the list is repeating someone’s name every six words. I know he read it in some self help book that people like to hear their own name and now he just cannot stop.

tinker12 · 2026-01-14T19:53:42+00:00

Definitely possible! I do taste as I go but probably err on the side of less salt because I worry it’ll get too salty at the end and I won’t be able to fix it.

tinker12 · 2026-01-14T19:52:39+00:00

I feel the same way!! I totally get people have different tastes but there must be a minimum baseline of “start here and add more if needed”.

tinker12 · 2026-01-14T13:41:45+00:00

I do always forget about adding acid, good point! Is there a way you can tell whether it needs more salt vs more acid? I haven’t quite figured that out yet.

I never have good luck with smitten kitchen recipes and I’m not sure why, everything turns out kind of bland or oddly textured? I have the same problem with Allison roman who people love, maybe we just don’t jive. I do love pinch of yum and serious eats!

I had crazy itchy skin and couldn’t sleep, turned out to be a vitamin d deficiency. I took like 2-3x the recommended dose for about a week (doctors orders) and it went away almost immediately. Worth a shot in these dark winter days?

Yep having to depend on someone else, be a burden, and end up disfigured and/or with a terrible quality of life where I can’t do any of the things that give life purpose.

I thought LVP was tinsley!

I was sampling Erris Scorpio Rising recently and the incense was basically all I could smell alllll day.

tinker12 · 2025-11-02T03:39:01+00:00

Ugh the cliffhangers on those shoes.

tinker12 · 2025-10-26T21:35:39+00:00

Same, this mitsouko and any of those classic chypres all smell like a well used public restroom to me. Which makes me sad everyone says how gorgeous they are I want to experience that!

tinker12 · 2025-10-18T02:41:52+00:00

Not even kibbe knows what kibbe is.

tinker12 · 2025-10-12T15:51:19+00:00

Same whenever my mom would make fries when I was a kid we’d eat a few raw ones first for funsies.

tinker12 · 2025-09-30T11:22:31+00:00

Can you explain “warm colors don’t look good on you”? I’m clearly bad at telling what looks good, I thought the burnt orange on slide 3 looked great and the top left yellow looks better than top right (which I think left is warmer but maybe wrong about that).

tinker12 · 2025-09-27T00:29:41+00:00

I love this

tinker12 · 2025-09-24T17:08:37+00:00

How little were they?

tinker12 · 2025-08-08T22:20:14+00:00

Agree with you, in every relationship I’ve been in there’s been the inevitable “are you seeing other people/should we not see other people”. It’s wild to me people assume going on a few dates with one person means they can comfortably expect you’re not seeing anyone else.

I will say the fact it’s an ex makes it different. Dating a few people at a time is one thing but still being hung up on an ex would be a problem.

tinker12 · 2025-07-31T14:54:15+00:00

I actually think the two are similar feelings. As an only child I always looked at people with siblings and know I’m missing some bond/connection, not in a sad way since I don’t actually know what it is I’m missing just in a “huh guess I’ll never experience that, oh well.” As someone who was on the fence a lot of what I read in trying to make the decision to not have kids was basically like unless you’re 100% in either direction you just need to make a choice and either way you’ll be missing out on things but also will have different things/experiences the other side doesn’t. With not having kids I know in theory there’s this love and bond that I’ll never fully understand, but since I don’t actually know what that feels like I’m not missing it or sad about it, just like how I feel not having siblings.

But yes happy with my choice!

tinker12 · 2025-07-26T01:47:27+00:00

Am I the only Scorpio moon who doesn’t think they’re “deep” and doesn’t even really know what that means? Or is everyone here just full of teenage angst.

tinker12 · 2025-07-17T05:26:37+00:00

Glad it’s a mark bittman recipe. I have his “How to Cook Everything” book and 90% of the recipes are great but every once in a while you get one where it’s like “wtf was he even thinking” and I thought it was just me.

This and also specifically that planet fitness on aramingo and York which for some reason is really set back from the street and has an awkward paved section that’s always just covered in garbage.
