This colorful loser is ready for round 1 of the @tmntfashioncompetition! Theme: Born in the 80's.

Admittedly, I don't know much about 80's fashion... so my brain just went: bright colors, roller skates, fanny pack. And just like that, canon Leo is ready to get demolished by go up against @villainleoau in round 1!

Before winter ends, so I mean I have some time, I would love to make lobscouse and hasselback potatoes for dinner but both of those dishes are just time intensive enough, especially when combined, where I would need to be very good at managing my time and potentially clear a day for it

You have to have water fic titles because you're drowning in wips, huh?

:0

(On one hand i personally found this very funny and I did do a little huff huff of genuine laughter—)

(On the other hand I did do a little quick calculation, and over the 2 years I’ve been writing in this niche of a fandom, I’ve published 60 fanfictions on ao3 and of that 60, 48 have been completed, which leaves me with 12 work in progress fics on ao3—OUT OF 60!!!!!! 12 fics out of 60 that are works in progress !!!!!

12 !!!!! Out of!!!!! 60!!!!!!!!!!)

🌞 favourite character from current wip

I have many wips and therefore many options to choose from which. makes this even harder? I look at my main wip and it's like damn I love writing spears nolan and amos melon and alto patterson and how they interact with each other and also with the main character who is [SPOILER]. so basically the whole main cast of star-crossed I guess lol

☁️ wip you want to write but haven't started yet

see I know there are a lot of these but my brain doesn't actually want to remember then rn. real soup hours. do the later Salt zines count if it's part of a bigger project that's already started? bc we have a lot of stuff that's planned but not written and boy am I excited to get to it :)

🌷 writing achievement you want to brag about

whenever I get discouraged about not having written much lately I just remember that I wrote several hundred thousand words of blaseball fic within the span of a couple years, and a decent percentage of that was when I was going through some of the absolute worst shit I've ever experienced in my life. and a lot of those words turned out good despite me being Super Fucking Out Of It! and I'll produce more good words in the future even if I'm not doing it right now. because I know I can do it! and I will do it under much better circumstances and the words will be even better as I keep improving. words :)

wait actually my biggest writing achievement is that I wrote some fics about Dot and they were so good that I ended up with a partner because of it. doesn't get any better than that I think

Lucky takes care of his beloved Boss, Marco whiles he's sick

Idk I've long wanted to draw a Lorre character(or caricature) being taken care of while they're unwell or taken care of someone else so now seemed like a good time

I'm trying to make a good pot roast in my crockpot, but after I take it out it gets dry. It's on "low" (whatever that means) for 8 hours. I've tried searing it before and still dry. It's submerged in plain water with some herbs and spices for that time. Am I over/undercooking it? It's a cut with low fat %, is that why?

I love you. I think you learned how to make pot roast from someone on Opposite Day, or perhaps April 1st. The only thing you got right is 'low heat for 8 hours'.

Choose a fatty cut of tough meat. Look for lots of fat marbling on a Chuck roast or Shoulder roast. Tough meat has a ton of flavor, and the fat keeps the meat from drying out. The long cook time on low heat, plus acids will make 'tough' meat into a pull-apart, melt-in-your-mouth glory.

Make sure the meat is completely thawed, NOT frozen.

Plain water and nothing else except herbs/spices is.... not what I'd do. A lot of flavor can come into the broth when you add whole carrots (minus the carrot top!) and quartered onions in there. I'm a fan of adding some big chunks of pumpkin or butternut squash and chunks of turnip as well.

I think using red wine for part of the liquid base, and adding a hearty helping of worcestershire sauce will also help the flavor and making the meat 'melty.' The acid and alcohol will draw more, and different flavors from the meat and vegetables that water alone cannot do. Makes it richer.

For my very best pot roast recipe, which had my wedding guests fuckin' clamoring to get the recipe; I cheat. I'm not ashamed of that fact. For the richest, most face-punchingly meaty tasting broth, go to an asian market (or online) and find a mushroom hot pot soup base. It'll be a thick liquid inside a bag, which you then dilute with water. Use THAT as the liquid base (remember to dilute it!), and add your wine and wocestershire sauce to it, along with those herbs & spices. Your whole face will be blown off with flavor. It's the best.
