Tiny Complaints

I feel you. I saw my bathing suits in my dresser drawer the other day and almost started crying. A summer with no swimming??? I hope not. And where you are cooling off in a pool is really needed.

Watch tv while the baby sleeps on me and I’m trapped? Perfect!

Is my foot getting worse or is this a normal progression for a bruise?

If the swelling is getting worse, I would be worried. But the color changing in the bruise seems normal.

Icing and massage can help healing

I ate too much homemade icing and now my stomach hurts. Is not fair, I stuck most of the leftovers in droplet on waxed paper in the freezer for pastille candies. But I had to clean up after myself, didn’t I?

I shared the leftover icing with my kids. It was a lot. I am both pleased and ill. Solidarity.

I have no icing to eat.

Me neither. I ate Pringles instead. An entire can. That was my dinner. So while I had no icing, I can commiserate with the icing over eaters.

I discovered tonight that I really need to bleach first (which I am not skilled enough to do myself, also my hair responds to bleaching by falling out) if blue dye is going to take properly. I do not know exactly what color my roots and most of my bangs are, at present. Sort of a brownish teal? Ugh.

Oh well, no one but Boyfriend ever sees me.

I miss my fucking hairstylist. :sob:

Follow up complaint: I have no pringles chips.

I didn’t have any icing either, which is why I made it. Beat 2.5 cups confectioner’s sugar into 3 tablespoons near-boiling water (or coffee), a little at a time, until smooth and fluffy. You could probably use a mixer, but I just used a spoon. If you don’t have any confectioner’s sugar, out regular sugar in a blender or food processor until it’s a fine powder, then proceed.

My recipe is similar: 1 cup icing sugar, 3 tbs cocoa powder, 3 tbs veg oil, a dash of vanilla. Mix them all up until it’s a thick paste then add hot water or espresso a tiny bit at a time until it transforms into smooth, lovely icing.

I really like the way you think.

My tiny complaint is that apparently not everyone knows that icing tastes a million times better with butter in it. Butter. Add butter.

I’ve never made icing but my partner’s Very British Granddad agrees with you completely.

Buttercream icing is better but takes more effort.

My dad isn’t able to find a specific photo of me from probably grade 4 that would be really useful for a presentation deck I’m putting together.

Do I instead use the photo of me in front of a Commodore 64 with 'Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego" on the monitor and pretend it’s not a video game?
