#the awesome overfloweth

[save-ben-swolo]

I don't expect an answer as I know your ask box already overfloweth, but I just wanted to let you know your blog is AWESOME and thank you for all the positivity you bring to this fandom. Also just wanted to fangirl w/you a bit CAN YOU BELIEVE ALL THIS FOOTAGE WE ARE GETTING!! I'm not even afraid of leaks right now, it's all these TV spots that are killing me. If this is just a tiny taste of how epic this movie will be, IDK I'm fully expecting to spontaneously combust in the theater

You guys are KILLING me with kindness this week!! 🖤T_T🖤

Anon 1: The amount of footage we’re getting all at once is CRIMINAL!! I feel personally attacked! (Especially when they dropped that new feral with messy hair Kylo footage). I’ve been aware of my inevitable spontaneous combustion in the theater for a long time, but now I’m EVEN MORE certain! 🔥

Anon 2: Thank you! I had a lovely day I hope you did too! uwu

Anon 3: It IS NOT pathetic to check for Reylo news everyday!! How do you think I find my content? You have essentially described my entire internet life O_O (just add blogging about Reylo for inappropriate amounts of time as well). But I am honored that my little blog is a go to for you! 🖤

[alloveroliver]

I’m going on a vacation!

Typically I wouldn’t announce something like this, but due to the nature of my blog, I don’t want you guys to think I disappeared or abandoned it XD. 

I don’t have data outside of the country so I will only be able to get on my phone at the hotel (If the hotel even provides Wi-Fi since we won't be staying in one place for too long.)

Don’t Fret!

I have actually made a bunch of posts that will be scheduled to release intermittently. There are several HC’s and some fanfics that will be posted throughout my absence, Woo! 

Unfortunately, I won’t be able to respond to all the comments and stuff I get on time, so I apologize if you get a shit-ton of responses all at once XD It means I found a spring of Wi-Fi coverage that overfloweth. <3

Where Am I Going?

I will be going to London, Paris and a few places in between. If anyone has any cheap or free suggestions on things to do feel free to hit me up with that sweet recommendation! Also, I’ve already planned to make a trip to St. James Park on the night of the full moon so don’t worry. (>u<) lolol 

--

Thank you guys for being so awesome! This really isn’t a hiatus or anything, because I will be working on some stuff on my downtime. And, If I get a chance, I will make posts still! 

If something ground breaking happens in the ikemen world feel free to DM me deets since my @ tag may be lost :( lol

CSA WEEK 10

P I C K L I S T

TOMATOES! - CHERRY TOMATOES  - SWEET CARMEN PEPPERS - PURPLE PEPPERS - CARROTS - CABBAGE - OREGANO - CILANTRO - EGGPLANT - MELON - CAULIFLOWER -SHALLOTS 

This newsletter is written from my house, where I will be all day today, tomorrow and the foreseeable future as I am currently posted up with a sick kiddo and a perfectly well (and wild) 3 year old.  We are all bumming pretty hard over here and fingers crossed will make it to the Cornish Fair by the weekend.  Meanwhile the field crew is coming together and providing the CSA team with ample support.  Just last night they were in the fields bunching all your carrots and we are all so lucky they had already swept the cabbage and cauliflower field on Saturday.  I continue to be grateful for both Mrs. T on early morning oregano duty and Claire on all the other duties.  While I was painting my nails for the 16th time, pondering all the popsicles I should be making with the melons and pushing liquids into this young blood next to me, she was bunching all the cilantro, picking all the tomatoes and peppers and counting out 215 one million times while simultaneously texting me v funny notes from the field.  Another hero of this week is my sweetheart and team mate, Ray Sprague- who is keeping it all together while non-stop pivoting.  He has not made it home before 9pm the past few days- and I like to think he is hitting up the west leb strip and partying super hard, a la applebees, kotos and icecream 4U.  But the truth is, he is labeling, washing, boxing up, and attempting to stay on top of field crops and farm organization while the farm is out 4 people (2 people on vacation, 1 person still in Jamaica, and me with the sickies).  

ALSO, kuddos to Ray and Roy for calling it on blueberry season- it’s been a great run with awesome fruit, but goodness gracious, it was time to walk away and pick melons and cherry tomatoes instead.  

 In conclusion, this week has been a challenge but the fields overfloweth, therefore the CSA parties on.

Pro-tips:

CLAIRE’S FIRST IMPRESSION 

AKA WWCD (WHAT WOULD CLAIRE DO WITH ALL THIS VEG?): STIR FRY AND/OR RATATOUILLE

This salad is only worth making when tomatoes are in season and full of flavour. It should be acidic and tangy, and will taste amazing alongside a piece of slightly charred meat from the barbecue.

crustless rustic bread (stale or fresh) - sourdough or ciabatta, for example - cut in 2-3 cm cubes

Salt and pepper

2 small cucumbers, cut into 2cm pieces

3 tomatoes, cut into wedges

½ red onion or shallot, thinly sliced

1 red pepper, cored and cut into large pieces

1 bunch cilantro, roughly chopped

2 tsp sumac (optional)

Grated zest and juice of ½ lemon

1 garlic clove, crushed

1½ tsp red-wine vinegar 

3 tbsp olive oil

Preheat the oven to 325F

 Spread out the bread on a roasting tray, brush with olive oil and sprinkle with some flaky salt. Bake for 20 minutes until crispy and golden, then leave to cool.

Mix all the other salad ingredients and adjust the seasoning to taste. Just before serving, mix in the toasted bread, using your hands.

 Chimichurri: 

The following recipe was provided by my best friend, Natanya, who says this chimichurri  i’s so good you could drink the stuff… Also, there are a few ingredients you are missing here- no parsley or garlic this week, but I highly recommend picking up these extra ingredients to make said condiment.  Farmstand folks, this will be particularly easy for you.  

 As for what to do with chimichurri, people love it on meat and fish, but i think it's awesome on everything.

 1 whole bunch cilantro, leaves and tender stems

1/2 bunch parsley, leaves

3 stems fresh oregano leaves

1 large shallot

2-3 cloves garlic

1 small red chili (fresno or jalapeno, seeds removed)

1/2 cup red wine vinegar

1/2-1 cup olive oil

Salt to taste

 Instructions: put everything but olive oil in food processor. With the motor running add olive oil until everything is incorporated and reaches the desired consistency. 

Enjoy!

Jenny’s note: the recipe calls for mint, but i think it would be insanely good with cilantro and or oregano!

 This is like eggplant bruschetta, except the eggplant is the bruschetta, topped with a Mediterranean summer salsa of a salad.

Feta is a great alternative to ricotta salata. If you’re put off by the sharpness of fresh onion, pour the red wine vinegar over it in a dish, and let it sit for 10 minutes, tossing it from time to time, before adding it to the salad. No need to add additional vinegar if you do. If you don’t like capers, you can substitute green or black olives. If you don’t care for mint, you can substitute flat-leaf parsley. If you don’t care for eggplant, well, thank you for reading along anyway! Ahem, or brush pitas or flatbreads with olive oil, grill them and dollop this salad/salsa on top.

 1 to 2 tablespoons plus 4 teaspoons olive oil

1 1/2 pounds eggplant (about 2 medium), in 3/4- to 1-inch slices

2 ounces (1/2 cup) chopped or crumbled ricotta salata

2 tablespoons capers, drained

1/3 cup finely diced red onion

3 seeded, diced medium tomatoes (1 1/2 cups)

3 tablespoons minced fresh mint leaves

2 teaspoon red wine vinegar

Freshly ground black pepper.

 Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Coat a large baking sheet generously with olive oil, about 1 to 2 tablespoons. Arrange eggplant rounds in a single layer. Sprinkle with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Roast, without disturbing, for 15 to 20 minutes. Carefully flip each piece: the undersides should be blistery, dark and a bit puffy and should release from the pan with no effort. If they’re not, let it cook longer. Once flipped, sprinkle them with additional salt and freshly ground black pepper and return the pan to the oven for another 10 to 12 minutes or so, until the undersides match the tops.

[Alternatively, on the grill: Brush eggplant slices with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill eggplant slices until slightly charred and tender when pierced with knife, about 5 to 7 minutes per side.]

 Meanwhile, mix your ricotta, capers, onion, tomatoes, mint, vinegar and remaining 4 teaspoons olive oil in a small bowl. Taste for seasoning; ricotta salata tends to be quite salty so I don’t find that this dish needs more than a pinch of salt, if that. Add more vinegar, if desired. Add freshly ground black pepper, to taste.

 When the eggplant discs are done, arrange them on a serving platter. Scoop a spoonful of the salad over each round. Eat immediately.

MY LADYNOIR HEART WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME. MY CUP OVERFLOWETH. MY CROPS HAVE BEEN WATERED. THE SUN HAS ASCENDED.

Okay, I’m done now, but on a serious note; this is really, really frickin enjoyable to scroll through. I can remember each moment from each episode and still coo over how awesome they are together. Adrien clearly cares about Marinette, and the same thing goes for Ladybug caring for Chat Noir. He’s her kitty. 💚❤️🖤

Who wants a stupidly long screenshot compilation of Ladybug generally having fun with / messing with / appreciating / loving on Chat Noir to remind everyone that Ladybug genuinely enjoys Chat Noir’s company and that their relationship isn’t as one sided as it’s sometimes made out to be?

[230east]

sinking silently in my submarine

 peeking up my periscope 

periodically perusing the passing 

photosynthesizing plankton 

pulsating plasma membranes 

eight legged tentacular suction cup

Pill popping percolating

positive vibrations

shaking up foundations

rock rolling down

to the bottom again.

just out of reach

water will recede

Cyclone circling the drain

so thirsty

get thee

to a nunnery

habit forming

thot-like behavior

instant gratification

think in new ways

get in formation

Shakespeare compares thee to Beyonce

woke up flawless like a diamond

dumber we round down

to the lowest denomination

algorithm assisted living

marketing machines

suggestively shaping

what you see

programming your point of view

the screen you pass through

is a filtration system

profile picture profiles you

feed back looping

it's the sine of the times

like a wave crashing systems

conversations conspiratorial in tone

the sinking suspicion that not so fresh feeling

and douching in general is a maladaptive marketing

mechanism to make you insecure and unsure.

they planted the product in your periphery

you think its your own idea

evolutions going backwards

survival of the photoshopped.

I’d rather be a monkey.

but ive evolved past tense

see triple in 3D

I trace your trajectory

parabolic path leading back

tragic swag. so sad these days.

no surface only substrate

sound of echoing rippling water

then a gasp for air breaks the  waves

reverberating ringing tingling

beat tympanic tamborine man

oscillting ossicles translate

fluent French kiss my derriere

rare special edition

one of a kind its just like mine

same old samo

saying the same thing

eat your drugs

don't do school

stay in vegetables

various variations on the theme

every verse a throw back

vintage vino veritas

theres truth in that

cliche et tu brute

wino forever never left me

so retro back in style again

stranger things have happened

Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees

still singing that song flowing through me

swinging in the breeze in fields elysian

exceptional on a hill past daffodils

narcissistic point of view image conscious

selfish gene pool self interested kin selection

consciousness superficial

on the surface floating

like a glacier melting

oblivious to  the tension growing

till it bursts through the glass mirror ceiling

 distorting  the image in circular ripples of pixels 

impressionistic audience

glitch in the system program

its all conditioned

when i ring the bell 

cerberus salivates 

it is fate

three bitches barking

measuring me out by string

theoretically 

three weird sisters 

by the cauldron bubbling

on the lyre 

lyrically i am lilting

you can’t stop me

you can’t stilt me

im always growing 

exponentially

 Fibonacci flow

 spiraling out of control

fractals follow golden ratio

chaos creating destruction 

entropy at equilibrium

Here we meet 

Apollo and Dionysus

combined in catharsis

pupils open to see pathways

 parallel past the point 

of no return to normal vision 

vanishing point out of view 

past pluto out the solar system

on my way to cross the river 

styx

STRANGE FRUIT Southern trees bear a strange fruit Blood on the leaves and blood at the root Black body swinging in the southern breeze Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees Pastoral scene of the gallant south The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth Scent of magnolia sweet and fresh And the sudden smell of burning flesh! Here is a fruit for the crows to pluck For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck For the sun to rot, for a tree to drop Here is a strange and bitter crop. -- Music and lyrics by Lewis Allan, copyright 1940

HAMLET

I have heard of your paintings too, well enough. God has given you one face and you make yourselves another. You jig and amble, and you lisp, you nickname God’s creatures and make your wantonness your ignorance. Go to, I’ll no more on ’t. It hath made me mad. I say, we will have no more marriages. Those that are married already, all but one, shall live. The rest shall keep as they are. To a nunnery, go. -Shakespear

I AM A STRANGE LOOP

In the end, we are self-perceiving, self-inventing, locked-in mirages that are little miracles of self-reference.

— Douglas Hofstadter,P363

And there he, on the the stark, dark marker  Atop his parents' graves, shed tears,  And praised their ashes — darker, starker.  Alas, life reaps too fast its years;  All flesh is grass. Each generation,  At heaven's hidden motivation,  Arises, blooms, and falls from grace;  Another quickly takes its place.  And thus our race, rash and impetuous,  Ascends and has its day, then raves  And hastens toward ancestral graves.  All too soon, death's sting will get to us;  Aye, how our children's children rush  And push us from this world's sweet crus

And then with verse of quickened sadness  He honored too, in tears and pain,  His parents' dust... their memory's gladness...  Alas! Upon life's furrowed plain —  A harvest brief, each generation,  By fate's mysterious dispensation,  Arises, ripens, and must fall;  Then others too must heed the call.  For thus our giddy race gains power:  It waxes, stirs, turns seething wave,  Then crowds its forebears toward the grave.  And we as well shall face that hour  When one fine day our grandsons true  Straight out of life will crowd us too!

The American Dream is a product.

Lassoing up that freedom and mass producing it in metal.

I grabbed the reins and hoisted up on the saddle.

Perhaps he was too dumb to run.

Perhaps he was trying to protect me.

Graffiti on the door to the private room.

He shaved his face with a hatchet.

They placed bocce on the boat

Dressed in white.

Looking up at the billboard by the highway

Trying to communicate

He ran with a baguette]

I aint going outside. she said to the dead air left lingering in the cigarette soaked airwaves still circulating

The smoky air swam circular warning skylarks illuminated by a stray sunbeam. light littered in lateral patterns.

I have Christmas yummies from Petit Chat, My Pretty Pixels (MPP), La Bella Boutique ({LBB}), and a preview for two more awesome Evil Bunny Productions events!

First, Petit Chat is offering as a gift for The Chapter Four December round the Christmas version of the Instinct Ankle belts.  As with most events, you need to have the Chapter Four group membership to get this and other gifts from the event.  The belts come with compatible version for most of the mesh bodies an an unrigged version .  The Chapter 4 event runs from Dec. 4 – Dec. 31.  LM:  http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Dreamlove/218/123/2

Store LM:   http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Rayne%20and%20PetitChat/62/98/27

MPP offers a lot of beauty and whimsical fun this season, including Strass Lingerie and Short Night Dress, for when you want to be the present s/he’ll want to open most!  Lingerie has appliers for most major mesh bodies and the dress comes in most sizes, including mesh and major mesh bodies.  I’m also modeling the Halloween nails for Slink because I realized something: there are green and red colored French nails with white tips!  Lesson learned, for me: never count out something from another holiday that might also still work for the current holiday!  I included the Glossy Lipsticks in Pink, plus the new version of Christmas in Mouth – you get several colors to choose from for ribbons, and the two paper options are gold and silver.  Whimsical and so cute! And only $3 for group members!  Find all these and more here:   http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Made%20in%20Paris/128/90/25

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

{LBB} has more Christmas holiday goodies for you to enjoy as well:  2 lipsticks, 2 outfits, one set of nails, and an adorable teddy with card!  The two lipsticks are Retro Lipstick, with its bright splash of color on a pale background, and Noel Lipstick, with a gorgeous harlequin diamond pattern of color!  The nail polish is from the Red Xmas Nails applier; it makes my nails so festive!  And the Christmas Teddy is almost ridiculously cute, and the card has several themes that you can display.  The two outfits, Goth Snowflake and Naughty Santa, are both complete with shoes and trust me, anyone would love to see you in them under the tree!  And just look at that Santa – he’s really smiling and his eye appears to be twinkling … !  These are all available at the mainstore as either store releases or gifts, and here is the LM:   http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Everstream/182/212/3001

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

And then, last but not least, EBP  has two more events to add to the other two offerings already running, and they are seasonally glam!  The Gacha Life – Season, which began Dec. 5 and runs to the end of the month, is a gacha-fueled fiesta of fun, and you can see two offerings from a designer in the picture below.  So gorgeous!  Twe12ve – Glam Event began Dec. 12 and runs to the end of the month as well.  I think the dress – with and without wrap – and the drink in hand (offerings from two of the designers) definitely say glam!  I’ll write more about those designers later; meanwhile, why not go to one (or all!) of the December EBP events?  You’re sure to find something to make you go ho-ho-ho!  LM’s below:
