LOL, just made a comment about watches and came here.
Mid-80’s and mom was appalled at the notion of a $30 Swatch when a Timex could be had for $10. No Swatch. ☹
Woke up one Saturday morning, decided I was fucking 50-yo and I could buy a damned Swatch if I wanted to! Bought TWO!
Truly realizing you’re an adult is quite freeing. :)
You’re also free to get fat and die of a heart attack. It’s like nobody cares.
As much as buying and eating a whole chocolate cake is 100% a bad idea for your health, doing it once is unlikely to have any noticable impact beyond making sure you have horrible shits for a day or so.
Doing it (or similar) habitually will obviously drastically increase your chances of heart attacks and other issues though of course.
But if you want to reward your inner 8 year old every once in a while I say do it, too many people make themselves permanently unhappy with dieting. The (much easier said than done) trick is very well known, and it’s simple moderation.
Tbh the less sugar I eat, the less I crave it. Even certain fruits can be almost unbearably sweet sometimes
Overrated. The real perk is learning how to not eat it all at once
That’s the most difficult part of cooking/baking. The serving suggestions!
A wild Snorlax blocks the path…
Bake a cake, have a slice, and sell the rest to charity. It’s more cost effective, less expensive, and allows one to further the use of the phrase “sell it to charity”. Triple win
I live in germany, so I cant on sundays, 'cauze everything is closed.
Damn, that sounds more puritan than I would expect from Germany.
Na man. We simply care about getting rest on weekends :)
I guess I associate it with weird old religious laws in the US that have been slowly, but not fully phased out over the years.
Lots of places here can’t sell alcohol on Sundays before a certain time still.
I mean, you over there have to conceal your booze in inconspicuous brown bags to carry it around.
Cafés are literally one of the only things open on Sundays here, and they sell cake.
And many bakeries also are open for some hours on a Sunday. And the shops at a train station.
As a “European” I never forget that I can just walk around the corner to buy cake because I don’t live in a suburban hellhole where I need a car to get food
Sounds like communism to me
Do they have cake in communism?!
