I was making up plates of goodies this a.m., including the pb frosted brownies I'd made. Whenever I give bar cookies away, I trim off all the edges just to make them look nicer. Yeh, that's the reason. It is NOT because I eat all the trimmings.
This sounds like a perfectly reasonable thing to do. And you don't want those edges to go to waste. Plus... You need to be sure they taste consistently delicious on all sides if you're giving them away!2 -

Yeh, that's the reason. It is NOT because I eat all the trimmings. But we all know trimmings have zero calories. Right? It's a well-known rule.
Its very good practice to taste test. I'm just doing the same with the gingerbread I made for Christmas day 😏2 -

Another vote here for taste testing aka systematic quality assurance. If you can throw in a food inspection agency name or reference, it's 10x more legit...and all the more necessary to verify, umm, repeatedly 😋4 -

I do quality assurance for a living. I agree... The larger the sample size, the more accurate the assurance of quality.2 -

I know the feeling. My parents gave me cash, so I bought a pair of tights and a speaker for my basement gym. And I bought myself a cordless drill. That's all the gifts under my tree for me! lol3 -

Just woke up from a dream about all you guys and TikTok ppl. We were all meeting up in the same town and it was cool to see internet people in person.
That gfc guy from TikTok was a amazing hugger. People from the selfie threads who you knew right away because duh they show their face all the time. People we’ve never seen introducing themselves. Although I think my brain made up their usernames.
Everyone (implying the group that was the collective of mfp chitchat) was waiting for iMago expecting him to ninja from the crowd because he didn’t trust the place and was going to monitor from the crowd in disguise first. My mom was there for no reason. 🤷🏻♀️ OoOoOo what if she was one of the lurkers!?
Idk I it was a warm fuzzy friendship dream and I’m online too much. Plus at some point I jumped into a vat of ice slushee water with some others like it was refreshing and maybe that implies heck as the meeting place bc I would never. 🥶8 -

Some of my best friends I have met on here and never met in person, or only met once or twice. I find I always hope I can get out and go on a road trip and just jump from state to state, hugging all the friends I've never gotten to meet. It would be so awesome.
So - to have a dream like that... seems like a really great thing.6 -

It was nice. I went back to sleep to have a nightmare for balance. 😓Yoshiboobs wrote: »Just woke up from a dream about all you guys and TikTok ppl. We were all meeting up in the same town and it was cool to see internet people in person.
