I'm in complete agreement here. 👍

If a person can't maintain their own standards...

But personally, I don't see a friend moving in on your girlfriend (or vice versa).
Not even with an ex...
It's just not worth the trouble...

mellowhound7 said:I guess you can't really score with anyone if they aren't making any room for it, though maybe there's always that one person who's constantly hunting and then someone else who just lets things happen, I suppose.

That's a fair point.
The weight of responsibility, however, falls differently on each side.—it's not an even split.

First, there's the friend who pursues someone they really shouldn't be pursuing.
Then, there's the girl who leans into the flirtation when she knows better.

In the end, the outcome is the same—neither of them is acting like a true friend.
At least by the end of the story. 😁

Flirting is essentially an attempt at scoring a shot.
So is hitting on someone 🤔

Success or failure isn't really the point—it’s the fact that you actually stepped up to the plate that matters. 😈

It makes sense. 🤣

A little flirting and an ego boost can be harmless, sure—but doing that with a friend of your girlfriend or wife...
That’s veering dangerously close to incestuous territory.

Oui 😁

Looks like everything is back to normal now. 🙂

Someone clearly deserves a timeout—it feels like Saint Nicholas is bringing Krampus along for the ride every single time lately.

The neverending day, American edition 😬

Nicole Myers said:Anthony Nguyen81, I had no idea you were into baking too—props to you. 👍

Thanks 🙂

I’ll probably just have my mom whip these up—she definitely has a better handle on certain recipes than I do. 🙂

Usually, we tackle this as a team effort—it's a bit of a collaboration between my wife, my eldest daughter, and me. 😁
I want to pass some of these skills down to the kids—plus, I have a massive sweet tooth, and they certainly don't mind.

Before the kids came along, my wife and I used to spend a lot of time experimenting with this stuff.
Let's just say I can be pretty creative when it comes to dessert. 😁

I wonder if we'll see some decent shots 🙂

Rachel Palmer56 said:I’ve experimented with pretty much all the fillings 👍
The only thing I struggle with is getting the crust just right—everything else turns out great.
You really can't go wrong with cheese; take a classic cheesecake or even something like a savory walnut and feta tart—it's phenomenal.

So, using those fillings in a yeast bread? Absolutely works.👍

Post it here👍

If I manage to pull it off, I'll post it 😁
But that’ll likely be closer to Christmas—it's still a bit early for that right now.😁

Did you eat it with cheese? 🍿
I haven't tried the hazelnut version—not 😁 yet

Walnuts can make for some really great additions.
Like, imagine putting bananas in the filling.
Or you could spread some jam over the dough 🙂

I’m actually thinking about making a walnut cake with a layer of cheese for the holidays; that should turn out pretty delicious too 😁

I have a weakness for cakes spiked with Alcohol 😁

Francesca and Freyya 🙂

Hopefully it will be 🤣

Alex Carter said:Thanks, Anthony Nguyen81🙂

Look, Anthony Nguyen81 really stepped up here—to be honest, I felt a bit awkward jumping straight into the deep end without any context, especially since we were coming at it so aggressively about wanting those cakes 🕺🤣

🙂
I think we'll be fine—the quality is there, and they make incredible cakes, so 😁😁😁

And hey, go ahead and clear out your inbox 😁

I haven't met her personally—though I see her around New York City and the US—so maybe Jeff Bezos knows her? I suppose I could ask; it isn't like she'll bite. She seems perfectly pleasant enough.

There, she's been invited 😁

Hopefully, she decides to show up 😁

Nicole Myers said:The reality is—hardly anyone can actually keep up with more than a couple of PDFs at once.

It depends on the individual 🙂

Njam 🙂
