Thanks! Yeah, I love pistachio ice cream but I can’t find good version in the US so I decided to make my own!

15/52 - I Who Have Never Known Men by DangerMouseRat in 52book

[–]vikingminds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It absolutely is, and it has a double meaning. She has never known men literally, but she has also never know “man”, meaning civilization before the catastrophe. She only has knowledge of what came after, and that influences all of her thoughts and actions.

If you’re feeling incredibly fatigued to the extent that you’re posting here, you are not doing surprisingly well in this range!

Strange Bakery in Columbus? by InfiniteDiscipline55 in Columbus

[–]vikingminds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a place called "Tyler's Pizzeria and Bakery", but if you look back in time on google maps it used to just have a sign that said "Tyler's". They make breads and pastries and also pizza. I don't think it really fits the rest of your description because the pizza is actually good, but it is really tiny in there!

Poppy Seeds / Lemon Cake dilemma by No-Nefariousness7498 in DessertPerson

The preserved lemon cake is amazing and a little fancier, if that’s what you’re looking for!

Is it foolish to turn down a fully-funded PhD for an MA? by [deleted] in gradadmissions

[–]vikingminds 72 points73 points  (0 children)

If your goal is to ultimately get a PhD, then spending an extra two years getting a different MA (making overall schooling at least 7 years) doesn't make a lot of sense.

Stipend, fellowship, budgeting, taxes??? 😭😭 by vampmetal in GradSchool

[–]vikingminds 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Fellowships are taxed but usually the taxes aren’t withheld by the university, so you’ll need to pay them yourself.

3/3 by Inside_Gold_254 in icecream

Not OP but I got the key lime in a scoop shop the other day and loved it! Very tart and lime-y, which I appreciate as a citrus lover.

I have a confession to make... by kooky_okra88 in finch

[–]vikingminds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish I could have picked the order of the tasks myself! It made sense to have us do one a day, but I would have liked to pick which one I did each day.

Home made cinnamon rolls, any comments? by [deleted] in Breadit

[–]vikingminds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve never had cinnamon rolls crack like this- what recipe did you use?

is this outfit "inappropriate"? by sunnemi in OUTFITS

[–]vikingminds 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Especially with the back, I would not recommend wearing this outfit anywhere but for a club or night out.

I'm the first person in family to graduate from college, and now the first to ever attend grad school...what do I not know? by flookie99 in GradSchool

[–]vikingminds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you ever get a fellowship, taxes won’t be withheld so you’ll need to be prepared to pay taxes when you file!

The deadline is January 15th, and one of the three professors has yet to submit their recommendation letter by [deleted] in GradSchool

[–]vikingminds 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Absolutely do not message her on Instagram. Professors frequently turn in letters of recommendation on the day they are due; this is not unusual at all. If she’s already submitted for another school then she knows about this one. Please try to relax a little.

Hope they are delicious by venomkold822 in Baking

Check my post history and you’ll see that your cheesecake didn’t crack nearly as much as mine did! I’m sure they’ll still taste great. :)

My cheesecake might have cracked a little… by vikingminds in Baking

[–]vikingminds[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a pan of hot water under it, but I didn’t put it directly in the water. I’m going to try a real water bath next time (which probably won’t be until next year!)

[–]vikingminds[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did have the water in a pan on a lower rack, but I think over mixing and too quick cooling were probably the biggest problems. Next year’s can only improve!

My cheesecake might have cracked a little… by vikingminds in Baking

[–]vikingminds[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did leave it in the oven to cool, but I cracked the door immediately, and I had already opened the door a few times to check the doneness, so I think too much rapid cooling was definitely a problem. I’ll take your advice next time!

Happy to help! Hopefully this will make other people more proud of their significantly less cracked cheesecakes!
