Haha, I see you really do love your garlic! I may have to taste some of these different breads - I've been pretty boring up until working in the bakery and didn't even know some of the breads even existed!- Mylexia

I've seen artisan breads in our store but never tried any. Mediterranean looks and smells good though, and we do a cheese and chutney one which I'm intrigued by.- Mylexia

I think the thing with bread is that people think it takes a long time to bake, but obviously not! I don't drink so I can't comment on the beer, but I know that a good loaf of bread is always nice. Freshly baked bread smells lovely, and always love a crust on the fresh stuff rather than...- Mylexia

Ooh, thank you for that! Be sure to post a photo of the finished product; I'm intrigued to see! :)- Mylexia

ethical PR; Thanks for all of the advice! Yeah, I think the DIY cupcake thing wouldn't really work at a market, but it's something I am keeping in mind for later. I'll be sure to answer all of those questions in my business plan; I do want it to be as robust as it can be! The Byre; Your views...- Mylexia

Mr D; that's completely understandable, and I don't think women would want to just be given the job because they're a woman either! With Blizzard, they're just wanting to work with groups to hire more women and learn about how to help more women stay at the company longer. I've seen that...- Mylexia

That's brilliant - Lego is amazing and such a great thing to do with parents/grandparents. Indeed, I know industry is full of men, everywhere! I read We should All Be Feminists by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, and she mentions that 52% of the world's population are female, yet the majority of...- Mylexia

Oneatatime; thanks for the advice. :) It makes sense to automate the things that are able to. Chawton; indeed. If you keep using the same faces, you're going to run out of them after a while! Newer, fresher faces have indeed proven their worth in recent times, but you still see the same old...- Mylexia

The Byre; YES! Lego is always a good choice too - although the sets are obviously catered to male/female sometimes. I used to get toys but was more interested in books even before I could read, but I like to think I would've enjoyed construction stuff. I do now, anyway!- Mylexia

Indeed, HazelC - thank you for that! I figured they wouldn't really say if they're doing badly. A cookie place called Wicked Cookies use Instagram to tell people where they are, which is good, as they tend to move around and do markets, and also have booths within big shops. Mr D; I did enjoy...- Mylexia

This is true - Black Panther was quite a big risk and look at it now. Overtaken Titanic's box-office record! Male-dominated superhero movies are in the works, of course, but there has been talks about Black Widow, Ms Marvel, Gotham Sirens films too - although it took a long time of the public...- Mylexia

I also read that parents tend to subconsciously choose gendered toys for children, however, with more conscious consumerism happening nowadays, parents are more open to allowing their children choose whatever they want to play with, regardless of gender association. Didn't stop me hearing a...- Mylexia

I read that, and that actually, that's the reason why women first started enjoying games; because there was no physical constraint and strength, stature, etc. didn't matter. It is an interesting point to explore though; after all, what's so bad about being beaten by a woman? Majority of...- Mylexia
