#9 Puddings

[biffybobs]

Sunday had a wonderful time at Reggie's: pestering the cat, wrecking the living room, and hearing all about the daft things her ancestors got up to in generations past.

As the longest lived Bakewell, Great Great Grandpa is in charge of writing the Official Family History. I wish that was a real thing but the closest we have is a keepsake box that ruins your photographs so we're just going to pretend 🙃

National Rice Pudding Day

All we can think of is a bowl of some good old rice pudding this National Rice Pudding Day taking place on August 9. For many of us, starting from our childhood to our adulthood, rice pudding has been a staple in our diets. Made with a base of rice cooked in milk and sweetened with sugar, syrup, or honey, rice pudding can be found in many cultures and cuisines all over the world. Of course, each region has its own unique take on the dish. Some add nuts and spices like nutmeg, cinnamon, or cardamom to it, while others throw in a dash of wine to give it that wow factor. For a more fragrant look and feel, many people in the Middle East also add pistachio slivers and rose petals before serving it. You can have it hot or cold, and as a breakfast dish or a dessert after dinner. So, how are you having your rice pudding on August 9?

History of National Rice Pudding Day

National Rice Pudding Day celebrates the ancient rice pudding dish in all its glory and greatness. While we may know the sweet version of the dish today, did you know that it actually started out as a savory treat? It is difficult to pinpoint the exact location and time of the creation of rice pudding, but many scholars believe it may have originated in either ancient China or in ancient India. Both these countries have a long history of including rice as well as sugar in their religious and cultural activities, so it only makes sense that the combination of the two may have been included in their cuisines as well. ‘Kheer,’ which is Hindi for rice pudding, was first recorded in ancient India in 6000 B.C., and it was included as a staple in a prescribed Ayurvedic diet regime. It is also interesting to note that the early versions of the Indian rice pudding did not actually include rice or sugar. In place of rice, Indians made use of the cereal grain known as sorghum.

Elsewhere in the world, rice pudding was being made with rice. The grain had reached Europe through exports delivered by water or the Silk Road in the 1300s. Because it was being exported from Asia and was not being grown in Europe, rice automatically became extremely expensive. Thus, rice pudding could only be enjoyed by the elite and royalty of European countries. Before the 1500s, rice pudding was savory in nature. It was made with rice being boiled in a broth with saffron and almond milk. Chefs started including sugar into the dish to make it sweet, and soon a sweetened rice pudding started gaining popularity. It was in the eighteenth century that rice pudding became more commonplace and less expensive, all thanks to globalization. The lowered rice prices meant the grain was in easier reach of the masses, and in today’s world, it is considered to be a cheap, but filling meal.

flashback to me being on fanfiction dot net back in the day looking up douwata fic and clicking on all of the options and 99.9 percent of them were kurofai dimension hopping epics where they'd be like 'and now we are in the clown universe!' and youd squint and douwata were fucking in the corner in clown costumes and then they swiftly moved on to more kurofai with faint honking echoing in the distance

[mybiggmouth]

this is actually terrorism what…

[chiapurin]

i think i actually know when im full or not... but because of chronic overeating, i almost always go past the 1st feeling of fullness. like today i ate some fried tofu, meatball, chicken, ice cream coated in marshmallow, and i KNEW it was time to stop but i didn't and now im beyond full and I STILL WANT TO EAT

it's like a switch to binge just turns on once i overeat

[jammyjams1910]

I DID A THING

I DID GOOD THING

I HAVE PUDDING😭💖

[j8kethewizz]

Happy 4/13. I may be stupid...

[plantveins]

sigh~ what a lost 😭

[bunnyb34r]

What the actual hell is wrong with customers 😭 Why did they tear UP the fucking Chamagedon sweats (they haven't yet found the shirts and I'm hoping to god they don't) Like ??? They have literally been here since like September, they've been at that price since we got em, they are fucking basic as hell. WHY?? WHY NOW?

Idk if it was bc I was gone for a week and no one and I mean NO ONE recovered my fucking area in that time. If it is bc it was an event weekend and even though clothing had absolutely 0 sale items, people were shopping. Or if people are just feral here. Like this isn't new, people being absolutely horrible to clothing sections in stores, but what caused them to specifically destroy this one table?? (And the stupid t-shirts, crewnecks, and leggings, next to them were collateral fucking damage)

I have to keep reminding myself that this is how this section looked before I started, and has always been a MESS. That if it took a week to mess up, it's gonna take at least that long to get back into the groove. That it's not personal that no one recovered MY area (everyone else's was recovered except the men's sports apparel). That I'm there for half the time my coworkers are so I am not expected to do 8hrs of work in 4. And that it's not a reflection on ME if the area looks like shit.

But god is it hard.
