Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
If a recipe, on the back of the box, says to bake at 350ยบ for 28 minutes for a 13 x 9 pan, at 30 minutes for a 9 x 9 pan and 45 minutes for a 8x8 pan how long should I bake if I'm putting the brownie batter in mini cupcake pans?
I'd start with about ten minutes and check to see if they're done.

I totally thought this would end with:

I will check them at 10 minutes, thank you Hil and Steph!

I just realized that my rationale for the mini-cupcake brownies was that I was going to make gluten-free brownies and they are crumbly.
But, then I decided to make regular, since I'm the only person who needs them to be gluten-free. Why waste gluten-free on people who don't need it?
So, now I'm thinking I will just make a big pan and call it good, since real brownies hang together pretty well on their own.
So, I'm bagging the mini idea and going for the quick easy on. But thanks for the advice.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Really? Desensitization is a pretty straightforward concept. What is there to debunk?
They gave people local honey, manufactured honey, and honey flavored syrup and there wasn't any notable difference in allergy symptoms amongst the three. link

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My big meeting is over! And went well. My boss half-jokingly said it should count for 5 meetings, and I'm sort of hoping to remind her about that at review time, since number of meetings is in fact one of my metrics, and I'm not going to hit it.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

An important point from the article: different species of plant use different vectors for pollination. It's the plants that favour wind-borne pollination that cause allergies, as it's their pollen that winds up in the air (of course). By definition, these are not the plants that bees are visiting, and so the allergy-causing pollen won't wind up in anyone's honey.
Side note: if you find a red flower in the wild, it's probably pollinated by birds. Most insects, including bees, can't distinguish red. (That may also be a reason that some trees have red or purple leaves in Spring - it helps protect the young, tender leaves from insect predation. They can go green and start photosynthesising once they've matured and are less delectable.)

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I was going to make gluten-free brownies and they are crumbly.
Do you make them from scratch (not a mix), or a mix? The Betty Crocker GF brownies hang together really damn well. I made them last weekend with M&Ms on top, and they were devoured quickly by mostly non-GF people. Pretty tasty.
