General Discussion Thread 06.11.2025​

Happy Wednesday, GrayViners! How are you doing?

Do you have any plans for the day? I’ll be heading to the grocery store later this afternoon to restock a few essentials—but let’s be honest, it’s mostly to refill my sweets stash. I need to have a little piece of chocolate after every meal... it’s my favorite treat and a small moment of joy!

What about you? Do you have a go-to snack that you always keep stocked in your pantry? Maybe something sweet, salty, or a little bit of both? I’d love to know what your favorites are—share them in the comments below! Let’s swap snack ideas!

My go to snack is Captain Crunch w/Berries cereal. I eat it dry, like popcorn, only so much better.

Aabsolutely Twizzlers red licorice. I grew up in NY city and that's the only licorice I like, not red vines. I like to eat several sticks right after dinner.

Dark chocolate is a pantry staple for snacking, dessert, anti-depressant, etc!

It must certainly be CHOCOLATE! It’s the cure for everything! Chocolate works for me! If it’s not a chocolate bar, it’s chocolate chip cookies and white chocolate truffles! Mmm Sorry, I lost myself for a while as I was thinking of my sweet treat as soon as I finish the meal my husband is preparing!

@maryloubaumann do you have any baking recipes you can share or recommend? I really want to get into baking but I think I just need some inspiration first!
