#coriander is good

[milkweedman]

Making some yarn for cat toys. This is some very lanolin-y and rough jacob that I think is perfect for my lanolin obsessed cat.

Roughly carded it (too much lanolin to card neatly, but who cares in this case). Spun into a thin singles on Geryon, my wheel. Then made a 2 ply bracelet with that and turned the ply bracelet into a 4 ply bracelet.

This is my favorite way to make 4 ply yarn now. One singles can be easily turned into 4 plies ready to spin this way. It isn't difficult to control, it only needs the one spindle/bobbin and your hand, and because it's not plied in between winding the bracelets it's not a cable ply, just a laid 4 ply.

Anyway, gonna give it a little wash just to bloom the yarn and then make cat toys and stuff them with catnip.

24 yards total of bulky weight. Should be just enough ?

Hail Apollo and Hermes for helping me get my ass in gear to take care of a couple financial things that have been stressing me out for a while! ...and for the reminder to not impulse spend.

[Image ID: a bookcover-style illustration of Zolf and Oscar from Rusty Quill Gaming at a cafe. At the top, the name of the cafe and the fic is prominently displayed as "Coriander". The author's AO3 handle "Queercore_Curriculum" is displayed underneath. Oscar sits at a table outside the cafe. He is writing with a fountain pen in a notepad and smiling coquettishly at Zolf through the window. Zolf stands inside at the espresso machine. He is pulling espresso into a macchiato cup and frowning back at Oscar, blushing deeply. In front of Oscar sit two novels: Persuasion by Jane Austen and Hearts of Fire by Harrison Cambell. Among the internal decor of the cafe is a poster of Judy Garland in A Star is Born. A carving of a green carnation adorns the store front. The artist's tag "lucky-numberme" is faintly visible in the corner. End ID]

Carrot & Lentil soup

this is my favourite & easiest soup recipe :)

Makes ~3 good sized bowls, easily scalable. everything is Approximate

500g Carrots

100g Red Lentils

90ml Milk (have used dairy + coconut before, anything unsweetened should work)

15g Stock Powder

800ml Water (is a THICK soup, might need to thin a little at the end, but is easier than other way around)

1.5-2tsp Ras El Hanout (have found this in most larger supermarkets)

~~

Boil water

Chop carrots

Dump it all into big pan

Simmer for 15-20 mins til the carrots are soft (lid on)

Roughly blend (chunks are a bonus)

Salt&Pepper to taste (most stock powders are salty enough imo)

Soup!

cilantro and coriander are the same thing? huh.

Finished Hermes' statue finally!! There were some hiccups (I had to super glue a couple things back on b/c they fell off when I was gessoing it) but overall I'm pretty proud of it! I'm definitely gonna focus just on sculpting busts for now, though, instead of trying a full-body sculpture like I'd originally attempted with this, until I get more used to the medium.

can i offer you an oc who’s going to go through absolute hell for simply existing in these trying times?

This is Coriander (She/they). Coriander has had the misfortune of being Obsidian’s bastard child

more below the cut bc this may get long after all

Random fun fact bc i’m not sure how common knowledge it is: while ‘bastard’ is a very common insult in anime, calling someone a bastard is basically saying their parents weren’t married. can you imagine someone being married to obsidian tho. it would be awful. Unless it was Jet, I guess, but whatever

also here; Cori in their Disguise(TM) (And also work uniform)

But anyways Wheeze and I were just kind of thinking about how hard it would be for people like Cori to even survive if they don’t hide funky spirit traits they get from their shithead of a father, and it evolved into ‘mmm. what if we made one of these hypothetical children’

so we did

[Cilantro stem and chili pepper. -Coriander. -Coriander. Good people strengthen themselves ceaselessly. Thai basil, salt, vegetable oil. And you're gonna have to use that wand, because there's not a lot of liquid in there, so you start breaking those veggies down.]

@secretbenvibes​ doing it to youuuu!!!!!!!!!! flowering u,................

uwahhh i think ill assign u a Sunflower!! they’re very simple yet memorable flowers, and they symbolize all sorts of good things and omens- all of which come to mind when i think abt you :)

Generally sunflowers are seen as a sign of purity, growth, loftiness/ambition & happiness. There’s a lot i could tell you abt them but nothing i think you wouldnt know already smdkfmsdkfs to me, you’re always very kind and reliable, and i think of you as someone who always helps me look towards the nicer parts of life. Its simple, pretty and sweet, all which are traits i associate with you <3
