Doctress, are you a vegan? Me too! (mostly, I sometimes cheat for ice cream and am less strict in restaurants)
Manboobz vegan club! What was your honey substitute – corn syrup?
I hope you can make your living situation work. You pretty much always fight a bit when you move in with someone, but controlling behaviour is a red flag. I hope t gets better or you can find a way out. *hugs*
FoS: What I’d do is, about the time you get to 10°F below the target… handhold it in the middle of the pot (both laterally, and vertically).
Butter/Milk Caramel for turtles isn’t as finicky as some things, so it’s not a huge deal for this, but for more finicky confections (esp. with higher temps), the problems of saturation change can be tricky, because the increase in surface ratio means the temp change accelerates as it gets higher.
A winsdor pan helps, but unless you do a lot of sauces, or candymaking, it’s not worth the space/money.
@filet, I cut my own hair now. I cut it yesterday. So my hair is back in angry kitten style now (that is how my niece describes how my hair looks when it is really short), about a half inch long.
Darkside- I tried two salons, both had hour-plus waits. So, I didn’t. I have wild, curly red hair, and I keep bangs, fairly textured ones. I’m not bold enough to cut my own. Though, it’s past my shoulders now. I think I might go pretty short (for me)
Pecunium- I don’t do too much with candy beyond divinity, caramels, and marshmallows. It hit 250, and it’s a bit on the chewy side. But I’m more upset that we didn’t have parchment, and that greasing the shit out of waxed paper didn’t help. But, I just coated the bottoms of them. I had a ton of leftover caramel, too, so that’ll get something done to it.
Also, League of Their Own is on. Gawd, but I would have been a bad-ass female ball player.
@FiletofSwedishFish League of Their Own is up there with 51* and Major League as my 3 favourite baseball movies of all time xD (oh and Eight Men Out is prolly in there too)
Ami- Before I moved to Madison, I lived just south of Rockford. I used to go there all the time! Also, I adore baseball. I always wanted to play, but never was allowed, for several reasons.

*hugs* for the Doctress! I hope things get better for you soon, sweetie! And I don’t think any of us mind listening to you vent!
Filet, those turtles look amazing! I was going to make peanut butter cookie tonight, but we’re out of eggs. And tomorrow’s my brother’s birthday! So that means my dad is going to make him a cake. (After he gets some eggs, I guess…)
Filetofswedishfish: Gaaaaaahhhhh *drools* Those turtles look supergood!
I saw the link when I was in class, and by that time I was thinking about class stuff and had temporarily forgotten about the promise of turtle pics — I clicked on the link fully expecting a photo of a reptile wearing a little outfit.

Oh, and Ami – my partner who *actually* plays magic on a semi-regular basis thinks that your cards are awesome. Just fyi 🙂
Ami, if I’m lucky enough to get a card, can I be keeper of the feminist lesbian cats? 🙂

That should be 61* (didn’t notice the error before) :
Thanks, Ami! <3
