I know I said I'm getting a little rest from making cc, but I just can't sit here knowing I reached 900 followers and do nothing about it. Though these were just unreleased projects that were wating to be posted during the time I had a broken internet at home so no worries, I didn't pressure myself to make these as these were made carefully and with love. So here's a token of gratitude for the huge following I continuously receive all throughout. Thank you everyone! 🥰

my gf is cutting out wheat for the most part bc she has eosinophilic esophagitis and she tried eating less wheat and got some solid positive results from that. so ykw what that means. im trading all the biscuits and pasta ive been making for potatoes and beans and rice. haven't bought any wheat replacement type stuff cause i always feel like. most of the time when a food tries to be something it's not, it's not that good. and almost all of our meals are mainly home cooked by me. and i like potatoes and beans and rice plenty anyways so what the hell am i gonna spend ten american dollars on wheatless pasta for even if it didn't taste crappy. but no hate or judgement. i am experimenting with a wheatless chocolate muffin myself cause she's in love with the ones from trader joes and they're expensive so i gotta find a way to get her to stop buying them. i get it. imagine having celiacs disease as an italian

I'm a human and I drink human food every day. Sometimes I even talk about consuming wheatless alternatives to American favorites.

Have you had actual tea not the ridiculous sweet stuff you got in the Wheatless land?

I have, yes. My great aunt collects teapots and teacups, so we used to have tea parties, and I loved picking out a cup but I always hated the tea

Food Literacy for All Showcase

"Do you know why the US Food Administration was created? Nope, it's not for public health reasons! Rather, it was created on August 17, 1917 by executive order primarily to provide food for the Allies in Europe during World War I. The US launched a rigorous campaign, greatly humanitarian in nature, onboarding roughly half the families in the nation to take on food pledges with weekly meatless, sweetless, porkless, and wheatless days to ship those foods to soldiers and starving civilians in Europe. This campaign demonstrates how the lack of overindulgence in food sympolizes patrioatism in the US during WWI."

Total war requires sacrifice and good morale makes sacrifices acceptable, and therefore possible. The sacrifices included inconveniences in daily life. To contribute to the war effort, citizens across the country endured the “meatless days” during the week, the one “wheatless meal” every day. All these sacrifices were of course voluntary, completely voluntary — although Hoover’s Food Administration could effectively close businesses that did not “voluntarily” cooperate. And if someone chose to go for a drive in the country on a “gasless Sunday,” when people were “voluntarily” refraining from driving, that someone was pulled over by hostile police. The Wilson administration intended to make the nation cohere. Wilson informed the head of the Boy Scouts that selling bonds would give “every Scout a wonderful opportunity to do his share for the country under the slogan, ‘Every Scout to Save a Soldier.’” Creel’s one hundred fifty thousand Four Minute Men, those speakers who opened virtually every public gathering including movie and vaudeville shows, inspired giving. And when inspiration alone failed, other pressures could be exerted. The preservation of morale itself became an aim. For if morale faltered, all else might as well. So free speech trembled... The government had the two hundred thousand members of the American Protective League, who reported to the Justice Department’s new internal security agency headed by J. Edgar Hoover and spied on neighbors and coworkers. Creel’s organization advised citizens, “Call the bluff of anyone who says he has ‘inside information.’ Tell him that it’s his patriotic duty to help you find the source of what he’s saying. If you find a disloyal person in your search, give his name to the Department of Justice in Washington and tell them where to find him.”

— John M. Barry, from The Great Influenza

GASP! The Bristol Phoenix reported on April 9, 1918, the Sunnyside Bakery in Warren was suppressed for violating food laws! They were ratted out by other bakeries who were doing their part and using white cornmeal instead of baking pure white bread. How long did this bakery stay in business?

Hi! I'm a curious anon! Tell me:

What's your favorite dessert?

You got a time machine that you can only use twice, one time to travel to when you wish and one to come back. Where do you go, past or future?

What's your dream vacation?

:)

Mhhh,

Favourite dessert: red velvet cake

Past or Future: Future I think

Dream vacation: I'm going on it next year, I'm going to the Wheatless land, so I'll be on the same continent as most of my moots for a while but other than that, maybe Italy?

I don’t necessarily agree with the entire post but I certainly agree with the literature part. It’s awkward to grow up reading the Flower Fairies poems and about ~crafts you can do with nature~ and have it mostly be irrelevant. Now I have a friend who writes wheatless settings and another one who sets a PF campaign primarily in a region with deserts and redwood trees and basically no natural snow, which is nice.

its possible to grow in your knowledge in a way that is very destructive to what you thought you knew as a writer.

plant blindness is very useful for writers because it allows them to give their settings placelessness. write stories that "could be set anywhere." I used to imagine placeless places. post-apocalyptic wastelands without trees, towns amidst long roads and cornfields.

Now I know that along the paths or in the cracks in the concrete, the weeds are growing. And a weed is an ecosystem, and an ecosystem is a Somewhere, a network of tethers to a land that is rooted in deep time. Plants are a clarification of where and when we are, and what happened, and what people did to the land, and how long ago that was, and whether they are still doing it. Everywhere is land, everywhere has ecology and geology. The omission of the plants in any setting feels like intrusive clouds of amnesia or jarring black bars censoring part of the reality.

I am conscious of the presence of land in my stories. I am conscious that the land is the ultimate progenitor of the characters, plot, and setting. I am aware that there are plants, which make the setting into a Place with a history and ongoing present.

the way I used to write is irretrievable. places are not just scenery, they are narratives of history, destruction, renewal, energy flow and cultural values. The plants are a driving force with their own agency. I can't not write about the plants!
