WHAT THE FUCK MAN

[ehatnow]

The cats were drawn by my brother, everything else was by me

[windupaidoneus]

happier things though i do think they cuddle a lot. very physically affectionate. not showy or annoying about it its not their style they just kinda always end up gravitsting toward each other. reading books together leaning against each other. holding the other or playing w each other's hair & whatnot when hands are free. giving neck kisses when getting sleepy... or kissing the back of the head or the forehead while passing each other. showering or bathing together just so they got more opportunities to cuddle. you understand

[mex-sickos]

That post about the difference between touhou 16 and 17 but for my burger game between this time and the last time I made burgers, this lame ass dude had the america special- wrong seasoning in his meat, bitchless vegetables, “awww cute he’s putting bacon”, only thing saving it is the fact you can’t taste it over the American cheese IDIOT; I have fucking EVOLVED- carmelized onion, that pretty lettuce instead of iceberg, brioche toasted in butter instead of on the grill like a fucking ANIMAL, sharp cheddar AND a couple weeks ago my mom got this truffle seasoning on Amazon and I made that shit into some spiced mayo with some chili this is the best fuckign burger I’ve made since I spiced one with taco seasoning and used that gourmet bison cheese we got while seeing my sister

[fagziraphale]

idgi when people say aziraphale simply likes food but doesnt get hungry. he clearly says with his own mouth he got peckish. he experienced a craving for crepes and brioche. he didnt eat the ox like it was just a fun new thing he was excited about he ate it like he was starving. and crowley in the book doesnt just sleep, he gets sleepy! theyve formed habits! they experience desires!

this is usually smth used for an analogy abt how theyre sex positive aces but 1) lack of a libido is not lack of attraction and 2) i do not think they necessarily have a lack of libido any more than they have a lack of hunger or tiredness

sorry for randomly sending this on tumblr (and also a few days after you asked for some reason?) but twitter is NOT suited for my rambly ass lol (and also i sometimes think tahini osn't everyone's fave even though a lot of people. do love it haha)

but please sometime try this as an addition w/ your breakfast: half honey half undiluted tahini, dip into it with some soft fresh bread like a brioche or smth. it's so nice. it's like our pb&j lol

everything else uses the standard recipe you might know: tahini, salt, a good amount of lemon juice, cold water (in other places like egypt they may add garlic or yogurt if they like the taste) - dilute it however much you like (<- like this you have to keep in the fridge) (and pretty much most tahini dishes are meant as dips with bread)

then you can have it on it's own as a side dish, as a sandwich sauce (esp with falafel/shawarma of course) or as a salad dressing

i second pip's kofta recipe, you can do it like the pic or we just lay it in a layer on the tray and have the potatoes cut in disks (tomatoes optional)

for people who like eggplants, you can either drizzle it on cooked (whole/cut) eggplant, or incorporate it into a dip like baba ghanoush

one of my fave dishes is msabbaha (or "deconstructed hummus") ("msabbaha" means "swimming in the sauce" lmao) - where you have a bed of hummus and add its ingredients (cooked chickpeas, tahini, olive oil) on top, and you can garnish with paprika and/or pine nuts and/or any hot sauce

tahini is a popular side dish (dip) with whole fish and with barbecque, with the latter you can eat it on it's own or (like i do) dip some flatbread into it, then use that to pinch a meat chunk off a skewer without getting your hands dirty! 😂

with the (white) fish, if you have leftovers of both the next day, you can shred the fish carefully into the tahini and have a new take on the dish slightly to the left haha

in the "acquired taste but my personal faves" category:

roasted/fried cauliflower florets just dunked in tahini, a lot of it

tahini and pomegranate molasses (or either/or) as a sauce drizzled on tongue or chicken liver if you like them

i havent tried making the sweet cinnamon bun equivalent thing but it looks nice! and there's also the whole world of "tahini as a sesame paste sub in asian cooking" that i haven't tried either!

i was about to say that buying halawa/halva is easier and better than making it, but i do have a caveat that im talking about a single palestinian brand ahahaha bc settlers tried to make it but none of the other brands are as good (oilier and less airy lol) so maybe do take a shot at it if you or palestinian immegrants near you cant get al-hilal 😄😄

so basically you can do anything you like with it, okay thanks for coming to my ted talk byeeee *runs away*

Omg thank you so much for this!!! Posting so my followers can also use these ideas

(Context is my mum bought a huge jar of tahini that neither of us really knew a lot of recipes for so I asked for some suggestions on twitter)

[mattibee]

I need to be the filling of a sandwhich

[thelibraryiscool]

dud yeast is the devil

[all-those-letters-unsent]

so I did bake again

[carrabeara]

Finally took a break from animal crossing to go outside. Found some cute snail shells, a nice moth, and my doggo even posed for me! Also made a very tasty loaf of brioche again 😍

[bookshelfdreams]

this is a really interesting example of a phenomenon I have observed which is that English speakers generally seem to find it acceptable to refer to things by the umbrella term under which they belong

which isn't really something we do in german. for us, most things have their specific name.

another example of this is sandwich discourse.which is completely nonsensical to me. for me, a sandwich is two slices of toast bread, filled with cheese/cold cuts/condiments/some veggies. that's it. everything else is called something else. a burger? not a sandwich. the things you get at subway? not a sandwich.

while to engl speakers, "sandwich" seems to mean "baked good that has other foodstuff in it". so of course THEY would find it completely bonkers when I say that a burger is nor a sandwich :)

my toxic trait is that I refuse to refer to this as bread because I'm german

[gummees]

speaking of mayonaise I was watching a PBS show where a woman in Maine straight up put mayo and lobster on an untoasted bun with a side of butter and that was presented as like the pinnacle lobster roll like m’am.........

[lovergirl]

thinking abt that series where zac efron said he had to give up carbs for his abs and like his hollywood career or smth like that like that's so cruel i think like to deprive urself of like the greatest of all of god's creations??? like i hope he's eating a big fat brioche bun w w like honey glaze or smth like that and i hope whoever's reading this is also eating bread and pasta and rice etc etc

[mara-draws]

Fixed up my doktah oc and im happy with the result!

She's a Liberi (magpie) and her codename is Brioche! (Yes the bread). Her real name is tbd

Also some Brioche x SA interactions:

Theyre at a function or smth

( @dcwdrops ) it’s the night after her birthday when jillian finally receives a text message from finley.

finley: u know when u confuse what day it is bc time is a human-made concept and completely relative and not really real?

finley: anyway lol go check your front door, i left smth for u ;)

on the mercers’ front door, there’s two boxes wrapped in cartoon bunny-covered paper. in the first box, there are two records-- one is abba’s arrival, the other is fleetwood mac’s tango in the night-- and an assortment of chew toys for brioche. there’s a little note pasted to one of the records: i heard gabe gifted you a record player, so i thought i’d help you start your collection with some essentials. also, brioche always deserves presents. always.

the second box is smaller and holds in it a folded green knit sweater. however, there’s a small lump within the folded sweater, and once jillian unfolds it, she’ll find a jade stone, and another note: probaby one of my best-crafted sweaters-- consider yourself lucky, miss jill. no comment on the stone.

on top of the boxes, there’s a letter tucked into an envelope:

jill,

it’s hard to keep track of how long ago i started being your favorite coworker (you don’t have to tell me-- it’s obvious), and how long ago you started being mine (after stanley, of course). regardless, it’s been an honor to have annoyed you this long and not have a black eye yet because of it. let’s see if i make it through one more year.

happy birthday, you frightening woman,

finley

[incorrectevillious]

Wait... is there a meme about Conchita and bananas I should know of?

i feel like i know which post you’re talking about but i just went through the past few weeks of posts and can’t find it. that’s so weird.

regardless, i don’t THINK there’s a meme i think bananas are just the original food in the original joke (brioche was originally potatoes iirc)

... if they’re not the original food then it’s prob a sex joke or smth idk
