Ha! Yeah @rayc89 you're probably right. By loaf 600 I'll be sleep-baking with my eyes open, probably still forgetting to score the bread until its third hour in the oven. My starter has been sulking for the past two days because I dared to keep it in the fridge for a weekend. Moody teenager is about right. I'm honestly convinced they can sense when you're trying to impress someone and they'll just refuse to rise out of spite. If I ever get to the point where I can bake a decent loaf without breaking a sweat, I'll let you know. Until then I'll be here staring at a blob of flour and water wondering if its going to cooperate today.

Even with all that metadata stuff, you ever wonder how much of this archive stuff is just straight up wrong? I was looking through the FBI files on some old local crime stuff once, spent a good month thinking I found a connection to a bigger case, turns out the file number got mixed up with a completely different dude's parking ticket records from 1979. The index said one thing, the actual box had something else, and the dates were all jumbled. It's like they hired someone who couldn't read a calendar to organize it all.

200 plants is a lot but a skewer test at two inches is for small pots.

Wish they taught kitchen shortcuts like this when I was younger.

Oh great, another thing I have to be patient about. Like I needed another reason to stare at my face in the mirror for months wondering if I'm wasting money. I bought the same kind of mask last January and around week 5 I started to seriously hate that client who recommended it. But then out of nowhere my husband goes "hey your skin looks less angry" which is basically the most romantic compliment I've ever gotten from him. So now I'm stuck using this stupid thing every night like some kind of futuristic beekeeper. Pretty sure the real scam is how long they make you wait before you see anything.
