When the centre stays risen and doesn't collapse down to a flat surface. Kind of like a muffin does but not nearly as much.

I tried this one. It's great and it's bang on for flavour but I can't get a dome on it.

Looking for a solidly fluffy ginger molasses cookie recipe that doesn't fall flat or become chewy. I want dome structure that stays intact, moist without undercooked chewiness, and a light crust and crackle. The kind that gets rolled in sugar before baking. #christmas #xmas #baking

Sooo weather experts... When can I start dreaming of a white Christmas on southeast Vancouver Island? Or should I just not bother? Please note, this will determine if we cook turkey or not ๐Ÿ™ƒ. #bcwx

Also the recipe is definitely a smidge older than me, circa. Early 1980s Eagles brand (condensed milk) calendar ๐Ÿ˜‚. Buts it's super simple layers with a graham crust, condensed milk, Choc chips, toffee bits, and peanuts. Baked and comes out chewy.

Toffee choc chip squares. My grandma made them every Christmas. When I graduated high school, she asked me what I wanted as a gift and all I wanted were toffee squares. She sent me home with some every time I visited for the holidays all 4 years of uni. Now I make them with my kids ๐Ÿฅฐ.

To see Montreal, but definitely the first PWHL (and hopefully not last) game in Vancouver!

Scored #PWHL tickets to see #MontrealVictoire vs #TorontoSceptres in January in Vancouver! I can't wait for my intense hockey fan (and player) of a daughter to see women on ice battling it out!!

Also timely reminder that #colwood really needs improved cell service out in Royal Bay. With every power outage, the network gets overloaded fast and I can't even load the outage map from #bchydro or get a message out to someone who has power.

Waves are fairly decent down at the lagoon and power is already flickering out in #Colwood. If the lights could stay on for dinner to finish cooking that'd be nice ๐Ÿ‘€. #bcstorm #yyj

Worked pretty well. I wish threads would auto update in the same way but I think that'll be fixed soon (if that makes sense). Sometimes the refresh worked and other times it didn't. But overall, much better experience.

We are a divided house (Canucks and Canadiens) but tonight there was peace ๐Ÿ˜‡. Everyone was happy.

Nevermind snakes on a plane... New fear has been unlocked ๐Ÿ˜ฐ.

Thankful #Montreal won and it was a broadcast we actually got ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ. It's a tough sell explaining to one kid why their team isn't available to watch as much her brother's is (Canucks).

Would be nice if they came out before Christmas!

Does anyone have any news when/where #PWHL trading cards will be available?

So glad you've moved over! Now I just need a starter pack for all things PNW weather ๐Ÿซฃ.

Apparently winter has suddenly arrived. It's feeling very crisp out there and I can't believe I went from feeling like it was still summer to needing gloves ๐Ÿ˜ฌ. Plus two windstorms took all the pretty leaves within one week, oh well. #yyj #colwood

Ah, the Okanagan. I grew up there in West Kelowna before it was West Kelowna ๐Ÿ˜‚.

I can only guess this means Budget Day won't be in February (and I think it's a fair guess). With previous changes to the Budget Transparency and Accountability Act, I *assume* it'll come later in March-April. Especially with so many new members to contend with.
