KK pulls up to one of Cupid's concerts in his bbq cookout dad outfit, cupid dies

She will give him his very own barbie montage

cupid probably would have picked out something better than what i was thinking of-

i couldnt help but be reminded of that one tumblr video of someone giving a rat (guy dressed up as a rat) (on the floor on all fours) a makeover montage (with the pink fur coat) HFADKSJSKF

Imagine 15.

Reed Richards x f!reader.

(I went feral for the Fantastic 4 Valentines post 👹 MY GOD RELEASE THE TEASER TRAILER ALREADY/j also happy return of the imagined thingy. the barbie series are being edited because tUMBLR DELETED MY DRAFT anyways enjoy this)

warning: adultery, secret romance.

Imagine being in a miserable marriage, and none other than Mr. Fantastic himself sweeps you off your feet.

Standing in your backyard as the cookout went on, and he extends his arm to hold your waist and pull you in and your eyes are wide, scared you might get caught, but also excited. It was such a thrill.

He steals kisses from you every now and then while no one has their eyes on you.

When no one's home, he plays your favorite record and slow dances with you in the kitchen where the windows are covered with curtains so not even the nosy neighbors can find you two in a scandalous affair.

All you gotta do now is figure out how to gaslight your husband into thinking you two have a baby on the way, and definitely not with the hot superhero next door.

realizing i have a whole bunch of “hope you’re ok” type messages from the past 1.5 months….SORRY GUYS!!! literally nothing happened!!! i just decided to stop posting for a while because i had had those two posts both blow up within a week of each other which of course was an unfriendly reminder that if you go more than like 3 degrees of separation outside of your immediate circle on this website you start encountering people who are genuinely too stupid to be alive. and i went through that whole “what do i get out of posting on here? NOTHING!” conversation with myself which of course was the same conversation that infamously led me to quit my job and move out of my shithole apartment/temporarily across the country 6 months ago and obviously not posting on a website is a much easier decision to make than either of those So. and then i didn’t post on here that i was doing that because i had no idea how long it would stick and i didn’t want to have a Goodbye Forever(See You Tonight!) moment. and then a few days after deleting the app i was like wow…i have so many more hours in the day all of a sudden! so i did not come back even to say goodbye which of course made it look like i had disappeared without a trace. SAD!

anyway…i have an extremely temporary part-time “job” now helping my mom’s friend move out of her house which she has dubbed “grey gardens” for reasons i assume are self-explanatory. which is the main thing that has changed since i’ve been gone. AND she’s actually paying me more per hour than target did 😃 so Yeah. and here’s some other thoughts i’ve had in the past 1.5 months that could’ve been posts, in no particular order and as a wall of text with little to no punctuation for your inconvenience:

Search party “when you know you know you know you know” scene scene of all time Daily Dot article about tiktok about walmart customer who loudly asked where the douches were or some shit and someone commented “target customers would NEVER” literally YES they would what planet are you living on My mom asked me in the middle of hobby lobby why she’s seeing so much stuff online about folding chairs now My mom forgot who mitch mcconnell is AGAIN My brother’s friend alex sent my brother a snapchat from behind the wheel saying “fuck yeah nerve damage!!!” My brother’s manager at dunkin who they demoted him to bring over is already quitting I finally met my nephew’s father and he wore his cookout hat and an anime t-shirt to his son’s first birthday party and he was too scared to say a single word to me and later my sister said he said he wants me to bake his birthday cake and also asked if i smoke weed because i’m “so creative” and this man is almost 28 years old My dad finally got rid of the couch i had been telling him he should get rid of for 2 years because his mom was coming to visit and he didn’t want her to see it There was an arrested development reference in the barbie movie did anyone else notice. Also this was my birthday cake that i made:

and here are some hounds:

Hey Cee!

I'm popping in with another one of my asks that no-one asked for 😆

This year is a leap year, and as 29th February is not technically a real day, I'm giving you the chance to spend 28th February with a Pedro character that you love and 29th February with a Pedro character that you don't. Which are they, and how are you spending your days?

Love, El

Sweet El! I'm sorry I sat on this for so long, but it isn't the end of the month yet so I made it *phew*!

Ok, so I'm 10000% spending February 28 with Palomino!Jack, hands down. He's going to take me on a magical day of riding in the mountains, and it will end with a huge cowboy cookout back at the Statesman Ranch. I wouldn't even be mad if the rest of the crew joined us!

I really did not enjoy WW84 or Max Lord - I'm sorry any Maxwell girlies out there! But I gotta say I really enjoyed his wardrobe. I wouldn't complain if we spent February 29 shopping for suits, especially if he wished for a bottomless wallet. I'd dress him up like a Barbie doll!

Thank you for such a fun ask! What are your answers? ❤️

My SO and I are doing the Barbenheimer double bill today. I'll do a full write-up after, but I do want to make a few notes beforehand:

We're seeing Barbie first. We went back and forth about this, but decided that putting 3 hours of Christopher Nolan at the front of the day would drain us of our energy for Barbie, plus the events of the Manhattan Project are something to be thought about over the next day, and the theater timings worked out better anyway.

Breakfast is a very unsexy pair of boiled eggs.

I'm wearing my purple Gecko Hawaii shirt because its the most Ken-esque thing I own. Boo did her nails hot pink with Lisa Frank accents. I wish I had better pants.

We're going to a birthday cookout after that has a water slide and bouncy castle. If you told 10 year old me that this was my adult life, he'd be sooooo excited.

A few more songs they could've added to the soul station but I know the whole copyright is a thing. Wishfully thinking anything Marvin Gaye, The Commodore's "Zoom", and Jasper Isley's "Caravan of Love". This music makes me feel so good and takes me back to my childhood. Cookouts, Friday night videos, Saturday morning cartoons, Soul Train with Don Cornelius, riding my pink huffy bike, and playing with my Barbies with my bestie. The ice cream truck where I had to have a sorbet push pop, hot pickle, hot sausage, and some Andy Cap hot fries. This was back when the $5 weekly allowance was a shit load of money.

[skiplo-wave]

My family hasn't been to a cookout on my dad's side in years. We got invited too one out of the blue, but my dad didn't answer the text nor did he open it. My grandmother plays favorites among her kids and treats certain grandkids better. I am not even kidding. I'll give you some examples:

(I am the same age with a few other of my cousins she favorites. I also want to note that most of the time, she would ask what they wanted. She never asked me.)

Christmas of 2000: My grandma gives my cousins Barbie dolls. I got a set of floral printed towels.

Christmas of 2001: My grandma gave me a set of lavender bath set that smelled so vintage and musky. She gave me cousins both Barbies and they both got Barbie cars.

Christmas of 2002: My grandma brought two dolls each for my cousins and because they was sisters, she got them a gift they can share. A big ass Barbie house. I got a ugly Christmas sweater.

Christmas of 2003: My grandma got me a gift certificate to McDonalds. (Half-Bad). My cousins got a trip to Walt Disney World.

As you can imagine, Christmas 2003 was the real last family gathering we went too. We would be opening these gifts in front of each other too. I always felt extremely bad. But I also felt bad that I shouldn't be feeling disappointed about a gift. She never sent me and my siblings birthday cards (which is fine). But she always made sure she sent the other cousins their cards. I will NEVER understand her cruel treatment toward my father and his children. Especially since he use to help take care of her and stuff around the house.

And because the cousins was being showered with gifts, it changed them. I use to have good relationships with my cousins despite the difference in treatment our grandmother gave us. But by 2003, it changed and they started acting like her. They would call just to brag about what they got from grandma. This was after we stopped coming around. I guess they only wanted us there too be treated different and bad.

LET ME AT THOSE FAKE ASS COSUINS AND GRANDMA ANON

Whatever happened between your dad and her she’s taking it out on y’all. Which is petty ass hell. But second you block her she’s whinning about not seeing her

The Memorial Day holiday weekend is almost upon us, which means we’ve finally reached the much-anticipated unofficial start of summer! Get ready to break out your sunscreen, flip flops and white jeans and dig into some tasty classic cookout fare. You can rest assured that your local Down to Earth farmers market will be well-stocked with all the grilling essentials and plenty of seasonal goodies to snap up as you make the rounds at your favorite vendors this Sunday. Marinades Before you tie on your apron and fire up the barbie, your fresh meat, fish, poultry and veggies from the farmers market will require a little pre-grilling TLC to bring out their best. Marinades are just seasoned sauces that you apply before cooking but the introduction of salt, acid and then the heat of cooking amplifies the marinade’s effect on texture and taste. Similar to a vinaigrette, marinades are typically made up of three parts oil to one part acid (3:1) plus seasonings and aromatics that can be handpicked to create whatever style and flavor you desire. If you’d rather skip the DIY, MOMO Dressing's line of unique Japanese-inspired dressings make the perfect ready-to-use marinades with an Asian twist. MOMO Dressing uses the freshest ingredients sourced from eco-certified New York State farms to create their small-batch, handcrafted products right here in Brooklyn, NY. Their flavors include Shiso (Japanese Mint), Basil, Sesame, Yuzu Jalapeno and Ginger. Condiments Your juicy burgers and hot dogs are going to be fully decked out this weekend thanks to an array of delicious farmers market condiments to choose from:

Dr. Pickle’s Mmmelish combines the doc’s sweet relish with horseradish brined sauerkraut, spicy brown mustard, and finely chopped horseradish pickles. Try it once and you'll be hooked! It’s the ultimate enhancer for beefy burgers, dogs, sausages, veggie burgers and even grilled cheese. Don’t forget to pick up a jar of their whole pickles and pickle chips too. No barbecue is complete without them! 

MOMO Dressing's homemade BBQ Sauce will add layers of smoky, tangy, thick and sweet flavors to whatever it’s paired with.

Bombay Chutney Company's authentic Indian chutneys will make the perfect spicy accompaniment to all your grilled entrees. Flavors include mint, plum, cranberry, coconut, pomegranate and tomato.

Your burger will taste great topped with sticky caramelized onions and Taiim Shack Mobile's creamy hummus for a delicious contrast.

Simple Fine Foods makes farm-to-table sauces, spreads, condiments and British pub-inspired heat-and-eat foods. Their line of bottled, squeezable sauces will jazz up everything from egg and potato salads to burgers, dogs and fries. Flavors include Everything Aioli Squeeze, Pesto Aioli Squeeze, Spicy Chipotle Squeeze and Sriracha Horseradish Squeeze.

Fixings Why not splash out and put all the fixings on your burgers, sandwiches and dogs this weekend! After all, extra toppings and garnish deliver a punch of visual appeal, layers of flavor and nutritional goodness to boot!

Bacon makes everything taste better so fry up some rashers of Goode and Local By Don Rodrigo’s premium thick-cut, hickory-smoked Pennsylvania bacon. Lightly flavored with maple syrup, cinnamon, and spices, their pastured, Mangalitsa bacon is nitrate and nitrite-free for a healthier alternative without compromising on taste or quality.

Dr. Pickle’s fresh barrel sauerkraut is crisp, golden and delicious. They make it by lightly salting and soaking white cabbage in vinegar and water.

Raw onions can pack a pungent bite, not to mention the need for breath mints! Caramelized onions are delicious on top of a burger or sandwich and are super easy to make at home. Pick up 2-3 yellow, white, or red onions at the farmstalls, Maplebrook Farm unsalted butter and a bottle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil and follow this simple recipe to whip up your own batch that will last for a few days in the fridge.

A medley of sautéed gourmet mushrooms from Mushrooms.NYC make a delicious side or topping and will add a pop of flavor to burgers, steak, chicken, fish and salads.

Of course, a classic American burger isn’t truly complete without a generous layer of crisp lettuce and ripe tomatoes. Instead of blander iceberg lettuce, branch out with some crunchy romaine or silky butterhead lettuces which are not only tastier, they also contain a variety of vitamins and minerals. Although tomato season isn’t here yet, the farms are carrying greenhouse-grown tomatoes which have ripened under the spring sunshine of late.

Strawberries are reaching their springtime prime right now which means selecting dessert will be a no-brainer for Memorial Day. And goodness knows that a big dollop of Goodness Dairy's grass-fed, creamy vanilla ice cream will make the perfect “condiment” for these lushly ripe ruby red gems. As we usher in the warmer weather and droves of new seasonal produce, we wish you a relaxing long weekend and look forward to seeing you in the farmers market.

Grilled Ginger Swordfish

Yesterday was sunny and warm, as was the day before, so I had trimmed the forsythia, which meant that Jules and I had our first barbie of the year! We ate inside though, because it was last night, and because Death on Paradise was on on telly and paired admirably with my Grilled Ginger Swordfish!

Ingredients (serves 2):

2 (170-gram/6-ounce) sword fish steaks (ask your fishmonger to prepare them)

1/2 cup Ginger, Lime and Honey Dressing

Pat swordfish steaks dry, and place them in a flat dish. Pour Ginger, Lime and Honey Dressing all over, and gently and generously rub swordfish with it. Marinate in the refrigerator, at least four hours, turning sworfish steaks over occsionally, and rubbing them with Ginger, Lime and Honey Dressing.

Prepare the barbecue. Half an hour before grilling, arrange a thick layer of coals in the barbecue. Top with a few small branches of wood (a mix of applewood and pinewood give good taste), and light.

Wait for the flames to die down, place the sworfish steaks on the grill over the red embers. Grill, about 5 minutes on each side. Brush swordfish generously with Ginger, Lime and Honey Dressing  and turn them over. Grill, 1 minute over glazed side, and brush the other side generously with Ginger, Lime and Honey Dressing as well.  Turn over, and grill another minute. Repeat a couple of times, until swordfish is beautifully glazed and charred.

Serve Grilled Ginger Swordfish immediately, with Grilled Corn.
