#which. does not match well with my personality jdgshsgd

[damnprecious]

I love how some of my most used recipes are super vague and then every time I try to bake them I despair over simple things such as 'why hasn't anyone written down a baking time'

#noopa rambles #it's because the friend whose recipe it is originally said 'well I bake it based on Vibes(tm)' #which. does not match well with my personality jdgshsgd #it's been so long since I've baked this specific thing I have no memory of the vague baking time vibes #I think it'll work out it looked pretty good when I last checked it #about to take the littel pie out of the oven very soon #let's hope it turned out well #at least it looks good but I'll have to wait for it to cool down a smidge before I can eat it #let it set a bit etc etc #I did write a vague time down this time for future reference #like. you don't need to stick to the Exact Time bc ovens are different etc etc #but when you have something written down at least you got a baseline for what you're working with #also not to shame my mom's recipes but mom's never have any info on which level of the oven they go #and they Barely got any instructions on what you need to do with the ingredients #like. do I need to whip the sugar and butter or sugar and eggs or not? who knows not the recipe!!! #I do have a few tried and true family heirlooms which I know how to make #but mostly lemme just use the storebought recipe book and the few excellent recipes I've pilfered from friends
