#marron glacé
Text
Watching Nemesis again and still floored that Miss Marple is to inherent £20,000 in 1955 (the approximate setting of the 1971 novel). So I fired up the ol' inflation calculator and it's about £432,464 in today's money, i.e. $526,202.
Darn right she's gonna buy some partridges and some marron glacé.

It's that time of year, when I drive 40 minutes to this road to collect chestnuts and then spend the next few weeks candying them.

Lo sai che anche i Marron Glacé che utilizziamo per fare la pasta per il gelato vengono canditi nel "toulle della sposa" come si faceva nel 1935 dai nostri padri fondatori? #romeo #disano #italia #fruttacandita #prodottidisano #canditiromeo @pistacchiodisano @canditiromeo

Since I talked about reprehensibly stupid youtubers recently it reminded me of one that's absolutely fine but also said a couple really dumb things. If I recall correctly the one person doing the book vs movie and other adaptation reviews on the yootoob talked shit about Edmund for selling out his siblings for turkish delights. I mean that in itself is harsh considering as a British kid during the Blitz you probably had to sweeten your morning coffee by boiling it in a lead pot, but on top of that he called turkish delights gross ? ..? ...has he never had turkish delights ? Either he's got a very specific distaste for them or he's never read up on what they are, anyway it's fucking weird. And actually I lied I wasn't reminded of that because of that other youtuber prick, I was reminded of it because I got a box of marron glacés on the discount rack from l'artisan provençal (good brand) and I was just wondering what this guy would find gross about those.

F7 eating habits headcanons!
So after seeing this wall of text, a friend of mine asked if i could make one for their eating habits, and who am i to say no U_U
I humbly apologize for the fact that this one won't be as long as the previous one, there aren't that many eating habits headcanons to get ideas from so about half of this will probably just be what i think some of their favorite foods would be- 😭
Anyways, here we go
Merlin
- i feel like he'd be a picky eater, but maybe not the most picky eater out of the group - he'd be the type of guy to divide the food on his plate in "food i like more" and "food i like less" and eat the former for last - it'd be pretty funny if he couldn't handle spicy food like at all - i actually don't know what his favorite food could be- - we've seen he likes carrots in the movie but that isn't really a dish i don't think- - carrots are probably one of his favorite vegetables tho - i feel like he'd have a preference for savory foods (not spicy however, just salty) - probably doesn't ask for seconds very often, but he's done it a few times in the past - always leaves some amount of food on his plate (usually not that much however)
Jack
- SO picky - refuses to eat bird meat - saves his favorite food for last - has called food bad just because of how it looks at least once - "I don't have a sweet tooth, don't be ridiculous" he says, eating his fifth marron glacé of the day - i honestly don't know what his favorite food would be, something fish based maybe- - eats rather quickly, but not like "scarfs his food down" type of quickly, does that make sense- - hates beans - apples are his favorite fruit (yes, even after all that happened with Regina; he avoids eating them in front of Merlin and Snow for a while after the movie's events) - barely ever asks for seconds, you REALLY need to make something amazing for him to ask for seconds
Arthur
- the least picky eater on the planet - scarfs his food down, but he doesn't do it too often and even then he doesn't look like a wild animal when eating - you'll be hard pressed to find a food he doesn't like - probably always asks for seconds - has probably asked for thirds a few times - the group trash bin (aka all the food that everyone else leaves he'll gladly eat) - i don't think he's the type of person to not finish all of his food, the few times it's happened he was probably really tired and fell asleep before he could finish everything - his favorite food would probably have meat and vegetables in it, me thinks - i don't think he'd eat vegetables unless paired with something else, like fish or meat
Hans
- not picky in the slightest - tries the food before calling it bad - always eats less compared to everyone else (because of... reasons..) - probably doesn't have a favorite food, likes most things he eats honestly - takes his time to savor everything, but doesn't take forever to finish his food - always finishes his food - has a slight preference for sweet food, but only slightly - only ever asks for seconds if he's not the one cooking, and even then he doesn't ask that often
Pino, Noki and Kio
- don't ask them their favorite food, it changes every month - not super picky, but sometimes it is hard to find something they like - favorite vegetables are carrots (onions are close seconds) - usually eat everything that's on their plate (or at least they try) - super fast eaters, they can be done eating in 5 minutes if they want to - don't really have a preference for sweet or savory foods, both are equally good in their eyes - usually ask for seconds - have a bad habit of eating so fast that while they're done eating everyone is still halfway done so they either leave the table or they remain seated and talk a bit, either to each other or with whoever wants to - they really don't like it when fruit or vegetables are really ripe, they don't like how squishy they get

Hellooo consider this an open invitation to talk about Ciel if you want! I'll take any crumbs of info or pics you have♡♡
Tumblr media Tumblr media
His full name is Ciel Frossard Aveline Ténèbres
He was born partially blind but now his sight is completely gone -> he use to have the ability to see powerful entities but can not any more.
His birthday is on April 1st, which makes him an Aries
He is skilled at fighting, his weapon of choice is a rapier, which he privately named Marron Glacé* *his mother was the daughter of a chef and when he was very young she let him help around the kitchen (so that they could spend time together and so that he could train his motor skills) one of the first recipes she taught him was that of marron glacés
His weapon has magical abilities: it can control and create Ice
Despite being cold and standoffish he has a good sense of humor and likes things that could be considered childish
He was a part of a religious organization/cult that manipulated him for decades into slaughtering all types of magical and mythical entities (which is ironic considering he is a magical creature himself, however far removed)
He has a complicated relationship with Zimri: they were both part of the same organization/cult and escaped together
Due to some shared interests, he became good friends with Toirneach
He is bilingual and speaks perfect French + English (though he does pronounce some words with an accent)

World building and theories of Engage
Marni
Marin is known as ‘Marron’ in the Japanese version. I can understand the reason for the localisation change, ‘Marni’ is a much more recognisable name in the West, unfortunately it affects the intended meaning of her name. Marron is French for chestnut, specifically products made from chestnuts such as: crème de marrons (chestnut cream), marrons confits (candied chestnuts) and marrons glacés (glazed chestnuts). In Japan, the chestnut is associated with autumn. Around the world, chestnuts have been a staple part of people's diets from thousands of years, Due to the plentiful supply they have come to symbolise abundance and longevity. Longevity is not something Marni benefits from, she dies young at the hands of Zephia. The memory of her sacrifice to try and save Lady Veyle does have longevity, Veyle will remember her for the rest of her long existence. 
In medieval Europe candied chestnuts were given as gifts by royalty. They were considered a valuable gift to receive. In the Bible, the chestnut was one of 13 foods offered to Baby Jesus, symbolises chastity (immaculate conception of Jesus), virtue and honesty. In Greek mythology children were believed to be found inside old chestnut trees. Artemis, the goddess of children, young animals, the hunt and the forest, turned herself into a chestnut tree to escape Zeus's lust, just like in Christianity, the chestnut is associated with chastity.
Marni is the romanticised image of a Victorian child of upper class status, her apple cheeks, her abundance of bow's and her corkscrew curls are designed to give her a vulnerable sweetness. John Everett Millais painted children with this kind of innocent and sweet appearance. She is dressed like a child and a  porcelain doll. In the Victorian era, a ‘porcelain complexion ‘ was considered the ideal standard of beauty. Dolls would be adorned with an armada of accessories to protect them from the sun, just like what a lady would wear to keep her skin from tanning. A doll prepared children for adulthood. Marni has her bonnet, gloves and her shield. 
Marni represents the fragility of a porcelain doll. Delicate porcelain dolls were given to children as a declaration of wealth. To avoid such a fragile toy was a symbol of wealth but so was the statement that the parents could afford to endlessly repair or replace the doll. Marni is the doll who can be replaced if she is damaged. She is also the plaything of Zephia and Sombron, who can manipulate her with praise to do what they want. 
On her head is an elaborately decorated fanchon with frills, bows and pleats. Her dress is an armoured and fabric variant of a ruffle dress, once again decorated with feminine designs such as bows and hearts. Her leg armour and sabatons mirror the rest of her design. Pink is used as it is the colour associated with little girls.

Since @laindir mentioned something about Ratatouille!Dezel I decided to look up Gameplay Numbers for Snack Preparation.
First five rows are for failures. Not including those failures, there are 35 snacks that can be prepared. Numbers indicate the probabilities out of 100, so they are in percent essentially.
In terms of failure rate, Dezel cannot fail at all (0%), while Edna is most likely to fail (33%). The rank for failure rate is Edna (33%) > Alisha (17%) > Sorey (16%) = Rose (16%) > Mikleo (10%) > Zaveid (4%) > Lailah (3%) > Dezel (0%).
Not counting the failure stuff, Mikleo can make everything, while Edna can make the least (she can only make 14 snacks). The rank goes like Mikleo (35) > Dezel (32) > Lailah (31) > Zaveid (29) > Sorey (27) = Alisha (27) = Rose (27) > Edna (14).
Sorey and Rose might seem like they share similar stats here, but I think Rose might slightly be better at this since she has the highest chance (7%) of making the best snack in the game, Marron Glacé. Out of the humans (who all seem to be bad at this), Rose actually might be the best cook, despite trying to do so with abacus.
If we look at their specialties (by seeing which snacks have the highest possibility for each character)...
Sorey: Pear Compote (10%)
Alisha: Strawberry Waffle (12%)
Rose: Baumkuchen (10%)
Mikleo: Fruit Frappé (7%), Raspberry Mousse (7%)
Lailah: Strawberry Shortcake (10%)
Edna: Chocolate Rusk (12%), Palmier (12%)
Dezel: Baumkuchen (8%)
Zaveid: Grape Mille-Feuille (10%)
As seen from Sorey, specialty doesn't necessarily indicate favorite food. Here are some interesting tidbits:
Sorey can make his favorite, Soft-Serve Ice Cream, but out of the ones he can make, it has the lowest chance of happening (1%). I suppose that's because his favorite has to be specifically made by Mikleo (Perfect Guide's words, not mine), which has a 5% chance of happening, just below his specialties and Ice Pop. It's just when push comes to shove, like when Mikleo suddenly can't make it for him, he will make Soft-Serve Ice Cream himself... while crying.
Dezel and Rose share the same specialty. Makes you think.
Also, there's a skit where it's said that the way Dezel bakes Madeleines is similar to how Rose does it. The chances for Madeleines are 4% for Dezel and 2% for Rose.
You can definitely see from what they can make and their specialties that the seraphim's elements definitely have something to do with the snack preparation here, as mentioned in a skit.
And that's the useless Zesty knowledge of the day.
