'The new owner has made some questionable choices': Baker tries to explain simple math to business owner, owner rejects their logic

If you're craving cake or cupcakes, it's all too easy to buy a box mix and whip something up at home. But when you're out, getting a sweet treat made by a professional baker can leave you dreaming about the dessert for a long time afterwards.

'My dough turned into a monster': 20 Baking mistakes fresh out of the oven

How often do you accidentally ruin your meals? No matter how skilled you are as a chef or baker, there are going to be times that you totally mess up your recipe. For example, one person here forgot to label their flour and powdered sugar (although they taste and smell very different!). Their recipe got completely sabotaged because of this… and they aren't the only ones! Up next, these bosses had some utterly ridiculous requests for their employees, like one manager who “asked me if he could bo…

20+ Overcooked and majorly messy food fails

Food fails happen to all of us at some point. At least, I hope they do. I burnt an entire tray of bacon yesterday, and I'm a perfectly good chef who's nearly 30 years old. I put some bacon in the oven for 14 minutes at 400 degrees, thanks to the fastest Google search results. I was also making some scrambled eggs and pancakes at the same time, and, because I live my life on hard mode apparently, frantically waving a blanket in front of the fire alarm every minute or two. Lately, the fire alarm…

'I'd never let her forget it': Student's family eats their school project

This is the newest version of “My dog ate my homework.” Apparently for one student, their excuse is that their project got eaten by their family! At some point while you were in high school, you probably had to do this assignment for your health class. Students often have to care for a fake baby as if it's a real baby. The fake baby can be an egg, a bag of flour, or, if you live in a wealthy school district, an electronic baby that cries throughout the day at random intervals. The project often…

'I get a knock on the door. It's the neighbor's mom...holding a receipt': Entitled parent insists neighbor pay for bake sale, neighbor agrees and brings receipts

Sometimes on a warm afternoon, the local kids will hold a bake sale . Maybe in your neighborhood they sell lemonade and chocolate chip cookies, and in others, kids sell baked goods , like breads or slices of bundt cakes. Of course, lemonade is a bit easier to make than baked goods. So parents might volunteer help out with that part.

AITA for not inviting a friend to my wedding due to her behaviour at the last wedding she went to?

'No one had anything to eat for most of the [wedding] reception': Blundering baker's stunt leaves wedding guests stunned and hungry

Some friend groups last forever, others dissolve over time, and some, like this one, break up in a dramatic fashion . You make friends in high school or college, and over time, you might find that you have less and less in common. The classes you bonded over in college aren't there to tie your friendship together after you graduate, and life circumstances mean that someone you were once close with might have entirely different priorities now. It's one of those awkward parts of life that have to…
