Can Anyone Help?

I've been buying these socks for like 10 years. I like buying a bunch of socks all at once. That way when I lose one I don't have to throw out its widow.

I can only vouch for this particular style but the company makes a variety of styles. and they come in various colors. And I think they are like $2 each if you buy a bunch at a time.

Haha . I knew I was taking a chance when I posted but couldn't be bothered making a separate post for it lol. I didn't look to see what forum I was in either...just figured I needed help!

You can move it or delete it or leave it for comedic relief

We will have to forgive you!

Socks...I need socks. Ones that won't cut off my circulation...and that don't cost $20/pair. I have over 50 pair of socks that I hate. I don't like stretchy socks. They're always too tight. I wsnt plain cotton soft socks. Why do they all have stretch to them? It's so frustrating. I've been searching for over five years for comfortable socks.

Diabetic socks! I have some I found at a discount store for a good price, very soft stretchy tops. I can't tolerate any tightness, anywhere!

I followed a vegan recipe for pumpkin cake. The ingredients were like the others, sans eggs and using flaxseed goop. One difference was the vegan recipe only called for 1 tsp baking powder, the others 2 tsp (both used 1 tsp soda). I figured it could benefit from 2, but I can really taste the baking powder!
We had a thread about baking powder biscuits with varied opinions on the taste, which is why I'm not a biscuit fan. Wondering do I have a strong taste for it, or is there like a trick to it? I do omit salt when it calls for powder and soda
I was thinking more 'cake' like, rather than quick bread

Edit: my son doesn't taste the baking powder, again. I guess it's just another thing I overtaste

Here's another one--
Roasting the pumpkin seeds. I rinsed well, dried a good bit, sprayed with oil and salt and put in 320 F oven. It's been like 30 minutes and the shell still isn't crispy, but like I need to spit out

I need someone to shed light on what the purposes of a butter knife such as this. It came with my cute little butter dish. But the holes are really annoying because the butter just gets stuck in there even on hot toast.

I think when you have hard, cold butter, you can use the side with the holes to scrape the stick to get butter, rather than trying to cut a small slice of hard butter, which can be tricky.

Yes, I thought maybe that was it but the butter still sticks! I just find it really annoying.

I have a spread knife without holes and it works perfectly for scraping the spread.

I have a spread knife that is some sort of plastic. it works great.

 

[KLS52]

Yeah… The holes have me baffled lol. I rarely use it. It's so annoying. I have two without holes that I love.

Just out of interest ,because it’s happened to me twice, I didn’t really have much to do with them as I wasn’t very close to them.One was best man .
Has anyone been asked to be a bridesmaid or a groom at a wedding and not really comfortable with the position.

No worries...I did this a few weeks back when I was looking for socks and posted it here. I figured help was help. And I didn't want to start a separate thread lol.

I started a trend!

Well, nothing surprises me here, but when I saw Blues post, thought that he had a glass or two of bubbly.

Don't know why, but I always thought the red one was plastic. but upon closer inspection it is metal with some kind of coating.
Anyway, I really like the wooden one which I got one year as a stocking stuffer.
