Real talk I prefer calling Andrew/Ashley "coffincest" over "gravescest" bc of the thematic significance of the coffin part and how it relates to their ominous decline into depravity of various kinds. It refers more obviously to the apartment they were rotting in alone together (what comes to mind, especially, is their conversation on the floor—with Andrew waxing poetic abt their shared burials and hopelessly entwined corpses), but also to their codependency/the all-encompassing nature of what they are to each other and who knows what other messed up shenanigans the plot will reveal ♡

AKA it's something uniquely theirs (gravescest could mean any possible combination of that family period) and it refs the title and core of the game ayyy

Vacation gave me time to experiment and use recipes I've been wanting to make and try, and today I went with, of course, Legends Arceus staple-

Potato mochi!

Its actually really REALLY good and easier than I thought it was to make, and now I can make these as a filling side to my work lunches when I go back! Just imagining making iddy bitty bite sized mini ones would be so goooooood ;w;

When I was initially forming the shape with and without cheese, i found wetting my hands a little helped the potato forming easier and helped smooth the rounded shape more without them cracking and splitting as much. I had used mozzarella cheese for half of them to experiment with and while they were hella good, those ones did fall apart more than I'd like, but its melted cheese inside I should have guessed. I could have cooked mine a bit longer to make them more solidly crispy but the cheese made it spit in the pan a lot when one broke but even with a lighter fry it still is good to have a crunch too. The sauce is also very easy and simple, but instead of the white sugar it calls for I swapped it with brown sugar and I think it made the sauce more rich and helped it caramelize better so it made a more sticky sauce to go on the mochi. The seaweed paper is optional if you wanna handle them by hand with less mess, so if ya dont have nori in your area its not super important! I did find my sheets at a walmart!

A 10/10 simple recipe that can be messed with to make more diverse flavorful combos and give a twist on potato recipes! No wonder the Galaxy team eats these and practically nothing else, go try it out yourselves if you have the time to do so! XD

You can follow it to a T but you can 'follow with your heart' so to speak

I was going to try and coerce Pelican into generating my recipe pages into the existing structure of my site, but theme stuff gets sad when you do that and it would probably be creating problems for future me to make it work.

Simply easier to spin off another subdomain. In the process of porting my recipes site to food.awful.cloud, so far it has one test recipe:

The cool kids use Hugo. I am not a cool kid.

My old recipe site was a homemade static site generator and it mysteriously broke. Writing your own static site generator is a time-honored rite of passage but eventually you want some more features.

Theme Week: Dessert 🧁

I think in the next Animal Crossing, you should have to earn your control over the environment. And I don’t just mean working to get terraforming, I mean, like, earning it before getting to decide where other people’s homes are and stuff.

Idk, the deserted island is fun but I kind of hope in the next one we’re back to being a new face in an already established rural community. And you can still progress to moving absolutely everything on the map and decorating each square foot and flower to your liking, but, like… these other people have lives of their own.

I like knowing a rando isn’t gonna move onto my carefully curated flowerbed and ruin my path, but I don’t like how much the villagers in ACNH feel like fashion accessories rather than neighbors.

"it's the sweet fall into sin, it's gleeful damnation" is such a good description and i cant believe it was in reference to an almond cookie

today in themed meals for junior year: its quesadilla time

[fantasy-foods]

Elven Water

Difficulty: ★☆☆ (easy) Time: 2 minutes (prep), no cooking Categories: Drinks, High Fantasy Perfect for: Summer drink, short-notice one-shot Dietary requirements: contains lemon

Recipe below cut <3

Recipe

You will need:

Elderflower cordial (mine is homemade, which you can also make by following this or another tutorial, or alternatively buying it)

Mint leaves

Lemon juice

Water

Pour some cordial into your glass. The amount will very due to taste or size of glass, but roughly one sixth is a good rule of thumb, as it’s concentrated.

2. Fill the rest of the glass with water to dilute the cordial. If making a large batch (e.g a jug) you may want to lightly stir it at this stage, however it should mix evenly naturally. If you have bought ready-mixed elderflower juice, skip this stage and instead fill your glass.

3. Squeeze a few drops of lemon into your glass, again to taste. Don't go overboard!

4. Add a few (washed) mint leaves. If it's a particularly hot day, you could also add ice cubes.

5. Enjoy!

So, I’m making tarragon chicken, but the recipe I’m using is from a middle-earth inspired cookbook my little brother got for me a few years ago. The recipes are mostly only tangentially related, but the ones I’ve tried are mostly pretty good (though I altered the brandywine fish pie, mostly because I like shrimp, but I can’t stomach the idea of shrimp in a pie). But. But.

1. This tarragon chicken recipe is called “Turin Turambar’s Tarragon Chicken,” which sends me every time I make it.

2. The little blurb above the recipe is basically, “Turin’s life was an undending hell of misery and woe. Hope he got to eat something tasty before he died. Like this recipe!” and it sends me even more.

Finally had some energy to cook so I made hobbit dinner 😊

I hope Pikmin 4 makes Nintendo considered making a pikmin themed cookbook. I know themed cookbooks kind of aren't looked in high regard but come on, Louie's piklopedia entries are right there. (And also, if not, that there is a fanmade cookbook made eventually).

the problem with writing the fic about Jane’s recipe blog is that I desperately want to include my real favorite recipes in it!! Which would be so fun, because I genuinely enjoy baking and cook for myself almost every night, so I have a bunch of good recipes that could work for the fic.

Unfortunately, I forget sometimes (because I only cook for two people) that my cooking is….unsettlingly allergy friendly. Yes, it’s all gluten free. Sure, every single thing can be subbed out for non-dairy alternatives, and we often make them that way! Eggs are a little bit harder, but a ton of my baking recipes can use banana or applesauce with a little baking powder as a substitute for the moisture and leavening of a genuine egg.

Just…..I forget that not everyone is dealing with 3-5 food allergies at all times when baking for themselves and their friends.
