#THE BEST SOUP

[the-lonelybarricade]

Secret santa here with a snippet! Trying to go hard with pining Rhys and oblivious Feyre for this one 💕

"Good morning, Feyre darling," Rhysand drawled, the way he always greeted her.

"It's noon, Rhys," Feyre said. The nickname might have been overly familiar, but Feyre had noticed his eyes glittered like stars whenever she used it with him. And besides, after being up since dawn, she wasn't inclined to fall over herself currying favor with someone who'd just rolled out of bed.

"Then let me be the first to tell you that you look delicious this afternoon."

Feyre rolled her eyes, positive she looked the farthest thing from delicious in her threadbare leggings and sweater. If it were anyone but Rhys, she would have been sure they were being cruel. But he had enough of her goodwill that he could pay her teasing compliments and not end up with his teeth bashed in for his trouble.

IM SCREAMING

Me already like:

I'm trying to so hard to piece together what's happening here 👀 Analyzing every little detail tyring to figure out what world we're in outside of the delicious feysand flirting hehehe

I've reread this so many times 🤤 I'm already so feral for the mooning Rhys and exasperated Feyre dynamic. Thank you for sharing it with me!! 🙏

want soup? here’s soup!  the best soup! 

after eating this for a few weeks my elbows and knees are no longer rough.  

you need:

two pork thigh bones (like fist size pieces, if there’s cartilage on it’s a bonus) (organic bones are better)

4 chicken thigh bones (if there’s meat and skin/fat still on it’s a bonus)

thumb-length chunk of ginger root, sliced (scrape off the skin with a spoon first bc chinese medicine says you should)

[edited to add now I usually add both 黃耆 (huáng qí) and ginger root to the soup to boost my overall wellness and energy levels]

1/4-1/2 cup rice wine or any 25% or above alcohol (can skip if you don’t have, but it’s better with)

1/4 tsp salt

4 quarts water

throw everything in a 5 quart pot, and boil it up for 4 hours on low low heat.  watch it while you bring it to a boil first so it doesn’t boil over, (annoying!) then turn it down as low as possible for the 4 hours.  

pro tip! if you need to leave the house but it’s not done cooking yet, make sure it’s been cooking WITHOUT opening the lid for at least a half hour, then you’re good to just turn it off and leave it on your stove safely, it’ll be sterile as it cools down.   when you come back home just resume cooking.

or! let it cool all the way down and pack it into boxes/bags for your freezer so you’re not faced with squeezing 4 quarts of soup into your fridge.

when it cools down it turns into solid jello, it’s amazing, all that gelatin is just straight up nutrition for your bones joins organs and skin

[edited to add that how 'solid' the jello is actually depends on the bones you've used that day, sometimes it's just thicker but very liquid when it's cooled, but that's ok it's still good for you]

I feel so nourished after having a bowl, even when there’s nothing else in it, but when you eat it you can add like dried seaweed and meatballs and spring onions and it’s so. good.   

or you can add quartered tomatoes and quartered onions and pieces of meat 

or you can add eggs and green veggies and spring onions

add it to anything to make the food more nutritious

This is my favorite Tumblr story ever

My adaptation of the God of Arepo short story, which was originally up at ShortBox Comics Fair for charity. You can get a copy of the DRM-free ebook here for free - and I'd encourage you to donate to Mighty Writers or The Ministry of Stories in exchange.

Again it's an honour to be drawing one of my favourite short stories ever. Thank you so much for the original authors for creating this story; and for everyone who bought a copy and donated to the above non-profits.

it's silly, but...

"sorry, we aren't eating spicy food right now." soonyoung says it over the phone to mingyu who, from what you heard because the call is on speaker, is trying to pawn off leftovers to soonyoung. not you, because your wisdom teeth just came out, and it'll aggravate it now. you look up from your phone, your heart warm at the notion.

we. we aren't doing this. we are in this together. you think you might cry. soonyoung's already explaining it to him: you can't have it, so he won't eat it, either: not directly in front of you while you're missing it this much already. you think this means he might indulge himself if he goes out without you, but you don't mind that. hell, you really hope he does if that's what he wants.

mingyu laughs after a moment, after soonyoung has apologized a few too many times. "no, it's fine," he says. "i'll ask vernon. are they craving anything that i can make?"

soonyoung looks at you when he thinks you're not looking or listening. "um... i think anything soft is good. they're miserable right now. i think i'll have to let anything hot cool down first, but... i think they'd appreciate it."

mingyu lets out a hum of affirmation. "i'll pull something together and drop by."

you fight back a smile as you listen to soonyoung thank him more than a few times before saying he'll talk to him again later. he comes over, bottle of pills in hand, and sets them down on the coffee table so that he can move your legs and sit underneath them. he drops them back into your lap, still holding on.

"is it bothering you?" he gestures toward his jaw. "i can get you something to eat so you can take your medicine..."

"i love you."

he blinks a few times. "... huh?"

"you don't have to cut out the stuff you enjoy for me." you reach out, pinching his cheek a little. "i don't mind. i'm an adult."

he pouts a little. "i'm not cutting them out completely," he says, one hand squeezing your ankle a little. "just when i'm with you. it'd be mean to sit in front of you and eat anything i know you want." he's sheepish now, eyes drifting away from you. "i like sharing with you. so... whenever we eat together," he meets your gaze again, "i'll eat only things i know you hate. okay?"

despite the tiny way your jaw aches now, you lean in, pressing a quick peck against the corner of his lips. it's clumsy, but still just as sweet, and it sends him into giggles nonetheless as he leans in to pepper your face with kisses as gently as he can.

"we're in this together," he says when he pulls back. he extends his pinky, beaming at you more when it makes you smile. "okay? we're a team."

you just giggle through the pain and lock your pinky around his own, taking the chance to steal one more kiss from him.

I want one 😍

You are a person who covers your counter space in clutter and inadvertently makes a shrine to a long forgotten god who shows up to thank you.

you wouldn’t expect sukuna to take care of you when you’re ill but surprisingly when you answer the doorbell you see your oversized cat — I mean your boyfriend standing there with a bag in his hand.

he tuts, looking at you up and down. runny nose, disheveled hair and tired eyes.

‘Stay away from me if you’re ill’ the tall figure states, coming into your apartment and taking off his shoes.

‘you’re the one who came over kuna.’

‘yeah only because you needed medicine.’

‘I could have gone and got it myself.’

‘fat chance. I also brought soup.’

‘you made some?’

‘no.’ He deadpans, looking at you. ‘who do you think I am? I bought it.’

‘right, sorry for assuming.’

‘why aren’t you in bed?’

you rolled your eyes, ‘I’m answering the door for you idiot.’

‘if you stand near me any longer you’re going to get even more sick. go away.’

that’s code word for ‘get your ass in bed and let me take care of you.’ you’re pretty fluent in the language of your boyfriend.

you say nothing in response and does as he says, disappearing under his sheets.

soon, he approaches you in bed with hot bowl of soup and your medicine. a glass of water is placed on your bedside table and he hovers around, making sure that you eat every last drop.

he doesn’t leave until you’re done, taking your bowl and telling you to sleep.

‘are you going now?’

‘going where?’

‘home.’

‘why would I?’

you shrug your shoulders. your head is heavy from your illness, throbbing from a headache. ‘thought you didn’t want to be around a sick person for too long’

sukuna holds back a scoff, ‘gotta make sure you don’t catch a fever or something as soon as I leave, I know you’ll try to do some work instead of resting.’

‘so you’re guarding me.’

‘If that’s how you want to see it.’

‘romantic.’

he makes a disgusted face, ‘go to sleep.’

Just as he promised he’s there when you awake and sukuna doesn’t leave for the next two days, making sure your illness is gone and that you’ve fully recovered.

spoiler alert: the soup he gave you was homemade but he didn’t want to admit it. :)

I am going to leave jellybeans in a trail that leads to a cartoon trap just to see if Ford would fall for it

Yes, he will fall for it. Fidds sees what you're doing and also knows Ford is going to fall for it. Fidds may not be willing to talk to his old friend, but he tries to help him out where he can
