Posy unfortunately you will never get a sponge as light as a bakery, because you'd be using real butter, sugar, eggs, etc, but bakeries use "Just add water" bags of cake mix, filled with yummy chemicals that make them impossible to recreate. If you're following sponge recipes exactly, not overbeating and beating the air out and everything, then you are probably making perfectly lovely sponges, they just taste totally different to crappy bakery ones.

I don't make sponges myself so can't recommend any recipes, sorry!

I actually don't like the sponges you get in a bakery, no matter how much "lighter" they are, they always taste sort of powdery to me.

Am I reading this right, your boyfriend dumped you (apparently) because you sent him a joke via text? Really?

I can't understand why you would dump someone over a joke-text, seems very OTT to me.

Mind you, it can depend on what the joke was about.

Still seems an OTT reaction to me though.

It wasn't a joke - that really would be an overreaction!

I sent him a message saying something smart, then followed it up with "only joking" He said - "well that's too late. G'luck!"

Overreaction? Yes!
Hurtful? Most definitely!

Don't worry I'm also confused! Hopefully he's just taking the p*ss!

Thanks for everyone's messages - I'm probably overreacting myself, it's been a hard few months and the tiniest things are threatening to break the camels back!

I will hold it all together, I will hold it all together!

Sorry I assumed it was a joke after reading this quote

The boy is also annoyed with me cos of a text I sent him joking and I emphasised with him it was a joke and now apparently I'm dumped!!

Did he specifically say you're dumped/we're finished/it's over etc? If he didn't then I can't see where you'd get the idea that he dumped you?

Just because he said "well that's too late. G'luck!" doesn't mean you are dumped, IMO. As I said it depends on what the joke/text was about, IMO.

That said I don't know either of you or your relationship so feel free to ignore me.

Came home and the lads had eaten all of the rest of the Pannettone. There was half left and it was huge. I only had one flipping slice!

Oh dear, just sitting down after doing battle getting the weekly shop in local supermarket. I swear, either I am getting crankier as I get older, or people are getting ruder. (Probably the former!). I can't stand it when my shopping is going through the checkout and I am trying to juggle, packing the darn stuff, watching that the special offers remain 'special' and paying the gum chewing cashier before all is packed; to add to my distress, the next customer stands right up in front of the cashier waiting for me to hurry up and wont get out of my way so that I can pay the surly creature. Why do people do that? Will they get their own stuff through any quicker by getting in my way? Or am I the only grouch in the village? Ah well, a nice cup of coffee and a biscuit now to calm me down. One of life's little pleasures.:)

definately not the only grouch, this drives me mad... and i find them a lot worse in tesco for this, both the cashiers and teh customers. what i do i pack everything before i pay for it. that way the cashier will usually help me, or i will pack extra slower, and when ive finished packing, ill pay her then. my speed depends on
1 - Their greeting
2 - Their attitude
3 - If they help pack or not.

I dont care who Im holding up either, Im paying for what Im getting, and Im not going to be made feel like Im in the way.

Being so passive aggressive is an awful infliction :pac:

I'm such a freaking idiot. Got it into my head somehow that someone was pissed off with me and I was really weird/off with him the past few days, particularly today. I feel like I should apologise and explain but then I'd be drawing attention to it and I don't want him to think I'm making a big deal out of nothing, either. He probably thinks I'm the weirdest idiot ever. Ugh, why am I so paranoid!?

On the yay side of life, I've just stuck my delicious pasta bake in the oven so it'll be ready soon, and then I'm having some Ben & Jerry's chocolate fudge brownie for dessert. Comfort eating ftw.

LostGirly - are you sure he dumped you over a joke? If he did it was a huge overreaction!

almostnever - don't worry, I'm like that too as you've probably seen from some of my posts.

Listening to Ed Sheeran on YouTube.. He's too cute!

maybe he's "only joking" in return

i just woke up, i slept for like 3 hours

I agree Kiera, very pretty. Fab teeth!

Made an appointment with the college counselor in 2 and a half weeks time, and signed up for her group body image class that starts the next day too. I've never done any kind of group counseling before but no harm trying.

Thursday night is my drinking night, can't wait! Been working really hard and have another hard week ahead so need beers! I maybe need sleep more, but naaaaah

Ahhh, self doubt really wrecks everything for me.
I've to send a few pretty important emails tonight and I'm agonising over them. I don't think I'm coming across properly today, my brain is all fuzzy. Last night I'd to send some and I banged them out in ten minutes, I have a feeling I'll be here for a while tonight though

I was really nervous too Links, don't worry. I've never been confident about how I look tbh. You are very cute though.

Links, you are very pretty! I thought you'd be brunette for some reason, it's funny how you assume what people look like.
It's definitely scary putting up a pic, I can't bring myself to post in the KYL thread. Plus, I like the anonymity I guess.

I've been watching this non-stop for the last two days, to the point where I can no longer remember the original song.

I guess I kinda figured people would have certain preconceptions about what I'd look like though. but to tell the truth, I do think I look kinda boyish. *shrug*

Is it bad that the first thing I noticed was the firefly shirt?

Firefly is legendary (I even say Shiny in real life!).

You have great taste in TV.

And as the others have said, yes, you are very pretty.

Boyfriend is cooking dinner, which means we'll be eating at about half 8/9. He's already cut his hand on the slicey thingy I never use because I'm scared of cutting myself, blood EVERYWHERE.

Okay, I mentioned to one of the girls about always having people over, and if she could tone it down. I wasn't nasty about it and she seemed to take it okay. I didn't mention the key thing; I'll see if the situation improves first.
Still kinda shaky, I hate confrontation! I feel better now though.
Thank you again girls for convincing me to do it, and I'll shut up now :pac:

Maybe start with vanilla ones so for your first time? I use fresh cooking apple, not apple flavouring, chopped up and rolled around in sugar and cinnamon.

Do they have to be small chunks ?! I am tempted to ditch the Vanilla cupcakes with pretty pink frosting and make cinnamon and apple ones lol

Oh, and I meant to say this in my last post - Links, you really are beautiful
