Small cookie business owner trying to grow — took over my mom’s 25-year bakery after she passed away, looking for advice on wholesale & frozen dough Hi everyone, I wanted to share a little background because this business means a lot to me. I took over my mom’s cookie/bakery business after she passed away. She built it over 25 years, and I’m doing everything I can to honor what she created while also trying to grow it into something sustainable long-term. Right now, I sell fresh baked classic cookies locally. I can produce about 14 dozen per week, and I’ve built a small but loyal customer base. The challenge is I want to grow without burning out and without jumping stra...

My wife and I are very different travelers. I've spent decades traveling all over the world with no planning, and gotten into endless scrapes. I slept on a park bench in a Japanese typhoon. I was nearly eaten by lions in the Maasai Mara. I was thrown from a moving train by the Indian police. I savor those stories, because I like when the unexpected happens. My wife, however, prefers planning and preparation. She wants to read hotel reviews, arrange package tours, and no exactly what she's getting into. So when we spent eight days in The Philippines, I decided to do it her way and arrange the best, safest, most relaxing, least surprising trip I could.  It had been a beautiful trip...

I really enjoy Helldivers I want to make that clear from the start. I’ve put a lot of time into it because, at its core, it’s a fantastic game. That’s why it genuinely ***** to say that my enjoyment has been fading lately. Balance is still a big issue for me. Instead of opening up more viable playstyles, updates often seem to narrow them. A handful of weapons and stratagems feel too strong, while others barely feel worth bringing. And ragdolling feels worse than ever. I don’t mind difficulty that’s part of the fun but constantly losing control of your character isn’t. It’s funny the first couple of times. After that, it just gets frustrating. Another problem is systems being ...

Wuthering Heights is my favourite novel. However, since I liked Saltburn and I knew this adaptation was a passion project for the director I decided to give it a go, keeping in mind that this wasn’t a faithful adaptation. 1) Direction I knew this was going to be a good movie direction wise having seen the directors previous work. I’d say this was her best project direction wise yet. However, I must call this out because to me it was very obvious. The last shot where Heathcliff lies near Cathy’s corpse felt eerily similar to the last shot from Nosferatu by Eggers. I loved the paintings references and shots. 2) Set The set was extremely well crafted and I guess that if there is one ...

Me (M19) dumped my female bestie (F19) School life was peaceful I had a small circle in the last two years. Though everyone went off their own way it was me and Remi my girl bestie joined the same college as me. We got even closer hanging out every now and then. I kinda dared to be more extroverted in college so I had much more people as friends in college but she wasnt so lucky. So my roomate's gf is a good friend of mine , I... I well asked her to be friends with her. Within a week Remi and Samara (Roomates gf) hit off so well it made me happy Remi wasnt lonely in her hostel. Here's where it starts By the end of first semester i fell for this girl from my school , Katlyn. Remem...

Good Afternoon, My son (20) is now perusing a career in accounting. He has passed his ATI? And wants to do other exams - he said through accountants Ireland? Makes very little sense to me! Our relative works in the accounting industry and said a lot of the smaller local town firms if you want a role is to cold approach them (E-mail CV / call in) so I am checking his CV tonight and we are scheduling sending mails to be delivered 10am Monday morning. We live in Lurgan, I was wondering if anyone can recommend good to work for firms around the area Lurgan / Portadown / Armagh etc. ideally Lurgan / Portadown as he is unable to drive due medical condition (Epilepsy). \*\*Also, if you could ...

This happened last week and my sister says I was technically right but socially wrong.I’m 5”9 and I get restless on flights, so I always book aisle. I paid extra for it like $48 or somethin It was a 5 6 hour flight. When I boarded, a woman was sitting in my seat. I figured it was a mistake, so I showed her my boarding pass. She goes, Oh yeah. We were hoping you’d switch. My boyfriend is back there. She points to like row 28. Middle seat. I asked what seat she was offering me and she said, It’s just a few rows back. It wasnt..I said I’d rather keep the one I paid for. She got visibly annoyed. Not yelling, just that tight smile ppl do. Her boyfriend came up and said it would mean a l...

I’m 35 and have been moving around through careers. Long story short, I’ve never made a lot of money because of poor career decisions. I worked as a freelance web designer for a long time and ***** it. I don’t think I can be a programmer. But also mad at myself for not finding a better paying job while I did that. I switched over to graphic design almost 3 years ago and have been working at a print shop. I love the job, but I need to make more than $23 an hour. I’m also concerned about staying on this path. It’s very competitive and the market isn’t great right now. I’m also worried about a recession. Creative / marketing jobs are usually the first to go in that scenario. I k...

Before you say she's not perfect or Ill find better, very unlikely. I was her first boyfriend, she's 6 years older (28) and Im 22. She was never interested in guy since she told me she was SA at younger age and was scared of men. She's very pretty, very atheletic, very wealthy family, went to an Ivy league university and is continuing her PhD in astrophysics. Im sure she will go far in life and due to having her own trust fund, she is also financially secured for life and her dad even bought her a $5M flat in London. She's a friend of a friend and she also look very young I thought she was my age. It only when we started talking I found out shes 6 years older but I di...

Like every year, Ali had come to his maternal grandmother's house for the summer vacations. But this year, he noticed a strange new trend: all the children there were touching the tails of skinks (babhani). Ali was perplexed by what was happening. ​"Touching their tails brings us money," Ali’s cousin, Saghir, explained. ​"Nonsense! What does a skink have to do with money?" Ali dismissed the idea. ​"I don't know the reason either, but look," Saghir said, leading him to his room where he had kept several skinks as pets. Ali’s legs began to tremble at the sight. He touched the tail of one of them. "Don't they bite?" Ali asked. ...

Should I shop online, or is there a possibility Hoyas will show up in my Big Box stores?

Hi, I know the title is very unprofessional but hear me out (sorry very long post). I have been with this company for almost 5 mos. I received positive response from them from the start like magaling daw ako, matalino at mabilis magwork and I felt like bumabalik ung dating ako na may gana and motivation ulit sa work. I know from the start that the company was very toxic dahil halos lahat ng employees - staffs or officers are older pero di ko jinudge kasi they were nice to me at first. Another red flag I ignored was the working hours, I'm sure they only communicated this verbally that the work starts from 8:30 am - 5:30 pm, but may need to render 1 hour if needed or may pending. I though...

Preface. I have 4YOE as backend engineer. I have used RabbitMQ and Mass Transit with PostgreSQL. I still can't wrap my head around why use Message Brokers (MB). Sometimes I find their use. You have an API and a pods for long jobs. The ones that take at least few seconds. So let's say API takes in a massive file and does a request for a long calculation operation which queues a task to the Pods. Where my issue falls is when the operation is short so giving it to a message broker does not seem to make sense. It feels a lot of times it is not worth to create the logic for message brokers. I was reading about making a URL shortener. One person said if you want metrics you will want ...

I got my iPhone 15 pro on a Vodafone UK contract. Turns out the network was really poor with lots of dead zones, so I ended the contract early and have been happy as Larry with 1pMobile since and have used a variety of ESIMs whilst travelling. However, irrespective of which provider I’m using, eSIM or regular sim, my phone occasionally loses all connectivity, and requires me to reset all my network settings to get connectivity working again. Is it possible this is something to do with the original Voda carrier settings or firmware? It’s no big deal, but would be nice to understand and fix if possible. iOS 18.6.2

Hi. I’m a high schooler and I’ve had this on my chest for years, I have no one to talk to about this so I need to get this off my chest once and for all. I’m 17, I’ve had a crappy home life since I was little and its followed me into my teenage years. My mom was a drug addict and my dad was a alcoholic who was rarely around, but we were happy for the most part, I don’t remember much of my childhood, either from trauma or just growing up, but I do remember my mom wasn’t around much, always dropping us off at different relatives houses or letting us run around for hours outside. I have an older brother and a little sister, both are my full biological siblings, about 1 year older an...

Hi all, I hope all is well. :) So, I just have a general question. Does anyone else research the other charts? Like Sidereal (Vedic) or Draconic Charts to compare and contrast how all these functionalities work together? The only reason I ask is because between my Tropical (Natal) & Draconic Charts. I have an “overlap phenomenon” as some astrologers would say. I’m also an April Aries Sun with the birth year, 2000. So maybe the birth year has an effect, but in my Natal Chart. I have a Cancer North Node & Capricorn South Node axis’s at 29 degrees / 49’. As well as, a Cancer Midheaven & Capricorn Imum Coeli at 28 degrees / 31’. The beauty’s of being a Libra...

It was beginning to get dark and I hadn’t eaten in days. I had put on my green jumpsuit and work boots and left my ragged heap of old world clothes in a pile next to the sliding door. There was no shower, but earlier I’d wet down one of the socks in the sink and washed under my arms and privates. The celly across from me, a tattooed lazy-eyed white boy with some kind of ti...

Currently using a Razer Firefly Hard V1 been using this pretty much since I started playing on pc. I am looking towards plastic pads like the Glorious Gaming Elements AIR/ICE, Razer Sphex or the EspTiger ChengYing. I am also looking towards glasspads but I'm not too interested in wearing a sleeve every time i go to my pc. as I get up and move around a lot. I don't mind the price just not interesting in wearing a sleeve. nothing against the people who do just can't be bothered. Just heard glasspads were bad without sleeves. But for glasspads I've looked at Talon Games Heated Nagisa, Glassworks Polarity and Wallhack of course. I play pretty much every game. Not as much tac...
