"Whaaaat, I can't do that to Cy, it's like kicking a puppy. Okay, okay, lemme think for a minute...uhhm. Cyrus, you...oh! You eat cereal like a freak. Though you do it with other stuff too, I guess. That whole 'I don't like my food to be soggy' thing. You're weird. Just eat right away instead of dicking around!"
Tumblr media
"Th-that's not...that weird..." It was weird, and he knew it. When he eats cereal, he pours the cereal in a bowl, and milk in a separate cup. Then he takes a bite of cereal, sip of milk. Bite of cereal, sip of milk. "It makes me gag when my food is all...mushy when it gets in my mouth, when I'm expecting something crunchy or crispy!"

menu for a restaurant that specializes in overstuffing its customers (aka a silly prompt list)
Ask your server about dietary accommodations. Each meal is made to order, substitutions and alternative ingredients are available! All meats may be replaced with plant-based alternatives upon request. (And pick a meal to feed your favorite character--if they can finish it, they get one dessert on the house!)
Breakfast (all orders come with a side of home fries, fresh fruit, or your choice of meat)
Full Stack of Pancakes - Emphasis on "full." Lucky seven big fluffy pancakes, each with a different additive of your choice.
Big Ol' Bagel - A hefty bagel the size of your plate, toasted to order and topped with whatever you'd like.
Ostrich Egg Omelette - Okay, not really, but this omelette is made with two dozen eggs--the equivalent of one ostrich egg--and filled with your choice of meat and veggies.
Loaf of French Toast - A dozen thick slices of French toast topped with whipped cream and fresh berries.
Plus Size Pork Roll - A classic pork roll egg & cheese on our signature giant bagel.
Lunch (all orders come with a side of chips or fries)
Peanut Butter & Jelly Belly - The biggest PB&J you've ever seen, slathered generously on a buttery toasted baguette.
Quadruple Decker Club Sandwich - Your choice of meat with mayo, lettuce, tomato, and bacon, heaped on between four slices of bread.
Piece-A Pizza - This slice is equivalent in size to an entire large pizza and covered with your choice of toppings. Perfect for people who are lying to themselves when they say they'll just have one piece.
Double Footlong - Two feet of classic Italian hoagie on a fresh-baked roll.
Stomach Stretcher - They say eating a head of lettuce is a great way to stretch your stomach out, and that's exactly what this giant salad will do. We bring you the lettuce, you take it to the salad bar and add the rest.
Dinner (all orders come with a side of rice, fries, baked or mashed potato, or a fresh vegetable medley unless marked *)
Sushi Bloat Boat - A sushi boat big enough for a full table, pricey to share but free for any one person who manages to finish it alone.
Box of Pasta - A full 16oz box of pasta (your choice of spaghetti, penne, or linguine) tossed in Alfredo, marinara, or a white wine sauce. Add your choice of meat for an extra $2.
Full Size Fish & Chips* - An entire 10-20lb cod (ask your server about choosing a fish) cleaned, battered, fried, and served with steak fries.
The Whole Farm* - A barbecue variety platter. Pulled pork, brisket, ribs, and chicken breast slathered in our signature sauce, with an ear of corn, baked beans, and coleslaw on the side.
Raised Steak - A 48oz grilled ribeye. Also available as an equivalent weight of seasoned and grilled portobello mushrooms.
Dessert
Paint Can - A creamy and colorful milkshake served in a one gallon paint can. See the ice cream counter for today's available flavors.
Loaf of Bread Pudding - Warm bread pudding made with an entire loaf of bread, topped with an optional scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Root Beer Bloat - A classic float with your choice of ice cream. The twist is that this dessert holds two liters of root beer and a portion of ice cream to match.
Burp-day Cake - A seven-layer slice of chocolate cake guaranteed to be the size of your head or it's free, topped with a thick crust of fizzy Pop Rocks.
Gobbler Cobbler - A pie-sized dish of peach, blueberry, or apple cobbler, topped with three optional scoops of vanilla ice cream.

Okay. An idea. Eddie and you, drive in, b movie monster marathon, nice crisp autumn night.
I’m over summer, sue me.
🧡🖤
Hope this puts a smile on your face Meg 🧡
Tumblr media
Eddie Munson x Reader
18+ONLY, mature themes, smoking the devil's lettuce, b-movie references, friends to lovers, use of "baby" but no she/her or y/n, pure fluff, just some cute nonsense, Eddie and reader are in their early 20's. wc: 1.4k
I'm just a sucker (for you)
“Got it,” you crawled up into the squishy van seat with Eddie’s infamous drug lunchbox in your hand, plopping down with a theatrical smile on your face.  “I knew I felt its presence.”
Eddie sat there looking so proud, as if you’d just pulled it out of a magic hat.  “My baby is a bloodhound when it comes to the devil’s lettuce.”
You took a sharp inhale and choked a little at the use of the pet name.  You and Eddie were not romantic like that, you’d only ever been weed buddies who met through Reefer Rick.  Recently you’d discovered that he also enjoyed getting stoned or buzzed at the drive-in on Wednesday nights when they offered the cheesy, cinematic glory of b-movies by the likes of Burt I. Gordon and Roger Corman.
You’d both showed up alone to the drive-in, and on your way back to your car with a popcorn bucket almost too big for the crook of your arm, Eddie whistled to get your attention.  It was a wolf-whistle, the likes of which made you frown as you searched for who the dead man was.  His arm lolled out of the van window in a wave, and he gave you a finger gun.  
“Oh, it’s just you,” you snorted, shoving a few kernels in your mouth, fingers glistening from all of the butter.  You didn’t mind that kind of attention from Eddie because you knew he was harmless. Wasn’t he? Neither one of you had any attraction to each other, whatsoever, as far as you knew.
But then, you stopped in your tracks a few cars down, thinking about how you’d smoked your last bowl earlier, and Eddie would for sure have a decent supply on him.  Maybe it wouldn’t kill you to hang out with a fellow freak for a bit.  
The October nights were chilly, and you thought to grab a hoodie out of your car before you made your way back to his van.  The grass at your feet was scattered in burnt orange and gold leaves, and the air was crisp, yet warm, with the smell of rain and freshly cut wood.
Eddie saw you walking back and jumped out of his vehicle this time, determined to get your attention.  He held his hands behind his back, lifting up on his toes, tentatively.  “Did you come back to give me a kiss?”
His mannerisms made you chuckle.  “Keep dreaming, Munson,” you pushed the popcorn tub into his chest, and he grunted, taking it with both hands. “I thought you might like some company.”
Eddie squinted at you, whispering, leaning in, “you came to smoke all my weed like a little feral, stoner raccoon.”
The movie started —Attack of the Crab Monsters—and Eddie feared he’d left his lunchbox at home. You weren’t sure why, but you were about to stay and watch the movie with him even without the weed, but then you decided to take a chance and check around his messy van, just in case.  
“Why is there a bed set up in the back?” You asked, wondering if maybe he was in between living situations at the moment.  You’d been staying with your mom since you dropped out of college, and most days, you wished you were living in your car.  
Eddie wiggled his eyebrows at you as he fingered a joint and slipped it behind his ear, snapping the lunchbox closed.  “Wouldn't you like to know.”
You rolled your eyes.  “Please, you have about as much game as I do.  There’s no way you’re getting laid that often in this van.”
“You know what they say,” he looked around, making sure no one was walking by as he passed you the lighter.  “If the van’s a rockin’, don’t bother knockin’.”
You checked around too, and then sank down in your seat to take a long drag, passing it back to him, fanning the smoke away, coughing a few times, while the scenes from the black and white film flickered across your face. Just beyond the movie screen stretched a line of trees dressed in fall colors, and a big, bright, dark blue sky that burned purple over the hills.  
You shared sneaky pulls off of the joint for the rest of the movie, each of you getting progressively invested in the loose plot, and giggly about it all at once. Eddie asked you a few personal questions, which you weren’t expecting, and sometimes you could feel his eyes on you.  It was a double-feature night, and right after the crab monsters they were showing a personal favorite of yours: The Monster Club with Vincent Price.  
It also happened to be one of Eddie’s favorites. 
“There’s no way,” he shook his head dramatically, brushing his bangs off his forehead.  “Nope. It’s impossible you love this movie, too.  No one I know has ever even heard of it.”
“Well,” you had one foot hanging out the open window, sucking from your straw. “I feel bad for the ones who haven’t heard of it.  It’s a masterpiece.”
You let him know that you had to run to the restroom but that you would be right back, because you didn’t want to miss the beginning, and you asked if you could get him anything.  As you said it, you could tell he was doing his best to contain the smile yanking at the corners of his mouth, but his efforts were fruitless.  
“So,” he crossed his arms, tilting his head sideways to give you a curious look.  “I guess you do like spending time with me?”
“Absolutely not,” you teased, slamming his door shut on your way toward the concessions.  
There were butterflies in your stomach as you returned to the van, though; an undiagnosed thrill in your veins that had something to do with seeing his face again. 
With Vincent Price’s face looming over the parked cars, Eddie cleared his throat.  “Do you, um,  have any plans for Halloween?”
“I never have plans,” you gave a self-deprecating bark of a laugh.  Your favorite holiday was in a couple days and the most you had done was carve a few jack-o-lanterns.  “I mean, used to, when I was kid, but these last couple years have been…rough.”
Eddie kept his eyes on the screen, plucking at the steering wheel with his thumb.  “Do you, um, think you might want to come see a band with me?”
You snapped your head to look at him, but his eyes only flicked to you once before returning to the movie.  
“A buddy of mine is in a cover band and, um, they’re playing at the haunted maze,” he pressed his lips together and then blew them out on a puff of air.  “But I totally understand if it’s not your scene.  I’ve got a shit ton of old horror movies at my place, too, or I’ve got friends at Family Video, we could—”
“Eddie Munson,” you had a funny feeling flopping its way from your stomach to your heart.  “Are you asking me out on a date? Or are you just asking me to join you as a friend?”
 “Now that all depends,” he lowered his chin, wiping something imaginary off of his jeans.  “What would you say if I did ask you out? Would you, um, be into that sort of thing?”
“Shhhh,” you halted, eyes straight ahead.  “Hold on, I love this part.”
You used it as an excuse to reach over and grab his forearm, to touch him, to give the type of reassurance that words couldn’t.  You squeezed him through his leather jacket a few times, only a couple seconds, and Eddie watched it in slow motion, aching to take your hand.  The distance was suddenly too far.  
It was a song sequence with a vampire band on stage at the Monster Club singing “I’m just a sucker for your love.”
“You come from Pennsylvania
I’m from Transylvania
And I’m a pain in the neck...
When I kiss and fondle her
It’s like making love to a 
Colander”
You could hear Eddie mumbling the lyrics and tapping his thumb, because he knew the obscure song by heart.  
 “Yes, Eddie,” you kept your attention on the screen, and now it was you losing the battle with a smile so big it pushed up your cheeks.  “I think I would like to go on a date with you.”

Wanted to try a fun challenge, so let's build a sandwich! It should have roughly even amounts of ingredients, probably less of the condiments than the other things. And 2 pieces of bread.
Feel free to help each other out in the tags!

Name: Bread Debut: Miitopia
Hey, everyone, look! It's Bread! Did you know? Bread is the best thing since sliced bread. Some of you might argue that Bread is sliced bread but consider: Bread is an enemy in a Video's Game. Can sliced bread say that? I didn't think so.
Tumblr media
Bread is one of the very first enemies encountered in Peculia, and from this first encounter, the theme of the world becomes immediately apparent: Funny! Yes the game has been funny up to this point, but this is the Funny world, so they need to show you some especially funny enemies to make that clear. Enter Bread! And also Running Nose, who is also delightful and might get its own post someday.
But not today, Buster! Today is Bread's time to shine! Despite how wacky it is, Bread is a pretty standard enemy. All it can do is float up to you and tackle you. Nary a Special Attack to be seen! But that's okay, I think. Even without any condiments, Bread adds flavor to the game! Unless the eyeballs count as a condiment? Maybe if you're Shrek.
Tumblr media
For some reason, the Miitopia Wiki has these descriptions for every enemy that don't exist anywhere in-game and are completely made up. Personally I think we shouldn't be insulting the Darker Lord for using their imagination. I think it was an inspired choice of them to make Bread into an enemy. Some of us would benefit from taking each others' eyes and putting them on random everyday objects to create new and exciting monsters. You know, for perspective. Maybe one of us can even become the living forks in Miitopia 2!
Now, as you're probably aware, Miitopia is an RPG, and every good RPG's bread and butter is introducing Stronger Color Variations. But alas, Miitopia does not have Buttered Bread, nor does it have Wheat Bread, Burnt Bread, or Very Lightly Toasted Bread...
...Because it goes above and beyond!
Tumblr media
Meet Ham Sandwich! More than a mere Stronger Color Variation, Ham Sandwich not only gets two slices of grilled bread, but also Ham and Cheese! And lettuce. There's also lettuce.
Unlike Bread, Ham Sandwich does in fact get a Special Attack, called Wide Attack, which as the name implies, is a Wide Attack that can hit three Miis at once.
...Okay, it's not really that special, but is getting attacked by Ham Sandwich not special enough for you already? You gotta savor the occasion.
Tumblr media
But remember to make room for dessert! Today's dessert? A Bread Sandwich! This is "Traveler" Bread, which takes the Dugtrio approach of giving us three slices of Bread at once! The more, the merrier, I say! And if that wasn't enough for you, "Traveler" Bread is a BOSS FIGHT!
Traveler Bread takes a page out of Ham Sandwich's book, once again getting the Wide Attack, but unlike Ham Sandwich, it gets TWO turns, meaning it can hit three Miis at twice! And that's it really. A small change to the Bread formula, sure, but it's okay. It's hard to improve upon perfection.
And that's it for the post. BEGONE!

my sandwich
sourdough toasted on the outsides only
very light mayo spread
pan fried smashed garlic
oyster mushrooms fried in leftover garlic oil/butter mix
1 leaf lettuce (romaine, wilted)
Some might say this sandwich is too simple to be enjoyed. however, when each ingredient is treated properly with precision and care this "Sinple" sandwich transforms into feast which rivals and in some cases completely overshadows what is available inpopular sandwixh shops today

Dinners with salmon
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hey fam, just felt like sharing some recent dinners. I've been trying to eat more blood-sugar friendly (lots of protein and fiber, complex carbs, fewer refined carbs, etc). Here are a couple of recent dinners.
I'm also on a bit of a salmon kick. I picked up a couple of pre-seasoned filets at Kroger but honestly it's much cheaper to buy plain filets (you can usually get them for about $5 each - Costco had big flats of them, like 8 for about $30, and they freeze well) and season them yourself. You can put just about anything on salmon. Or nothing at all.
On the left, I had an avocado to use up so I made two avocado toasts when I'd normally just eat one. I like avocado toast on Wasa crispbread. I put a very thin schmeer on it of either goat cheese or cream cheese, hummus in a pinch. Then the sliced avocado, drizzled with lemon olive oil with salt and dill on top.
I've also discovered that salmon is super easy and MUCH tastier in the air fryer! I make a little aluminum foil boat for it to ease cleanup. The one on the left is the preseasoned one. The one on the right I did with about a tbsp of melted butter, garlic salt, ground pepper and smoked paprika. Did it for 10 mins at 390 but it needed a couple more, tbh.
And on the right is a bowl of this week's Dense Bean Salad. I make a big container of it on Sundays and eat from it all week. I usually put it over some broccoli slaw, or shredded lettuce, or other greens. This one is chickpeas, black beans, cucumber, red onion, minced green olives, diced ham, chopped salami and edamame with some dill olive oil. When I eat it, I top it off with a little lemon juice, red wine vinegar, lemon olive oil and sometimes feta (I forgot the feta tonight).
Dense Bean Salad is a great thing to keep on hand. You can get really creative with it and the ingredients are cheap especially if you skip the meat ingredients.

Daily Check-in - July 27, 2023 🎀
Today was easier than yesterday, but I am still so sleepy and tired. I have to work a full shift tomorrow AND Saturday on top of my weekend chores so I'm hoping to take Sunday as a full self care day! Fingers crossed!!
🩷 What I Ate Today:
Breakfast - One slice of toast with mashed avocado, paprika, a fried egg, and a side of watermelon, and one cup of coffee.
Lunch - ground beef burrito bowl with black beans, shredded cheese, chopped iceberg lettuce, sour cream, salsa, and a low carb tortilla.
Dinner - One plate of spaghetti with meat marinara sauce, grated parmesean cheese, and two pieces of buttered bread
Other - One cup of coffee with French vanilla creamer
Water ~ 30oz I just forgot to drink water today, but using my water bottle has gotten easier and helped me drink more during the work day.
I didn't feel like snacking much today, and I couldn't finish my lunch, but I am very satisfied with my intake today! I love eating healthier and listening to my body. I do track what I eat, but I make sure it's food I like! Given my past, I can't do restrictions, so I choose to honor my wants in a way that works towards my goals and nourishes both my mind and body.
🩷 Workout - Upper Body Pilates (ish)
Tumblr media
This one was really good! It was my first time trying it and it had my arms burning in a good way. I really enjoyed it, and I totally recommend. This is definitely going to be a regular of mine! 10/10
Tumblr media
This one has been a favorite for a few years, I absolutely love the way it makes my arms feel. The movements are easy and effective, and leave me sore in a good way. Absolutely my favorite lean arms workout, hands down! 11/10
🩷 Habits I Completed Today:
Made my bed
Morning & Night Skincare
Morning & Night Guided Journal
Read 1 Chapter of a book
Workout
I forgot to do my mediation and stretching, and I didn't meet my hydration goal, but I'm taking every day in stride and doing what my energy allows me to accomplish. I believe in self compassion and flexibility in routine, especially given how my energy fluctuates on a daily basis. However, I am definitely doing the full habits list tomorrow, I'm going to challenge myself to accomplish every daily goal I have for myself!
🩷 Song of The Day: Eleven - IVE
This song makes me feel like a badass princess who deserves only the highest level of princess treatment. It's hard to describe how feminine and girly this song makes me feel, even on my most tomboyish, sweaty work days. An absolute bop!!
🩷 Current Read: Atomic Habits by James Clear
Tomorrow, I can do this. I can meet my goals, all of them. It'll take some effort, but I have faith in myself. Once I get the ball rolling, it's just a matter of forward motion with accomplishing each of my goals. I can't wait!!
I also need to budget for next Saturday, as I'm going shopping for some new clothes before my university opens back up for the fall semester. If I'm gonna feel my best, I'm going to look my best too! I'm really hoping to get a few new dresses, accessories (like hair stuff, pantyhose, jelwery, purses, etc), shoes, and maybe some tops and skirts too depending on what the store has. I love shopping, so I'm super excited!!!
Til tomorrow, my lovelies!! <3

5. Secure and Serve: - Insert skewers or long toothpicks at each corner of the sandwich to hold it together. - Carefully cut the sandwich into quarters, ensuring each quarter has a skewer through it.
6. Plating: - Arrange the quarters on a plate, garnish with some pickles or a small salad if desired.
Tips: - Customize the sandwich by adding or substituting ingredients like roast beef, different cheeses, or additional vegetables. - For a vegetarian version, replace the meats with grilled vegetables or a plant-based meat alternative.
Enjoy!

Jaune Makes A Snack
A D&D Short story.
Jaune felt hungry, so he went into the kitchen to make himself a sandwich. A simple sandwich with nothing extravagant about it. He gathered the ingredients, bread and cheese and ham and lettuce and mayo, and set them on the counter. Dipping the knife into the mayonnaise jar, he readied the first ingredient.
Mayo - 16
Jaune took hold of the jar and swirled it's contents until he felt confident with his gained quarry. Carefully angling the jar, he retrieved the butter knife and earned his well-sized serving of condiments. He then slathered his mayo into the bottom slice, making near perfect use of each corner and side. Setting the knife aside, he reached for the ham.
Ham - 6
Jaune reached for packaged ham slices, only to realize it was unopened. No problem. He just had to tear open the... tear open the... TEAR OPEN THE- Ham slices flew all over the place as the packaging was torn asunder. There was ham on the microwave, in the sink, atop the fridge, and yes, even on the floor. The wettest slice slapped him in the face, landing in his hands. With a sigh, he set it down over the mayo bread slice and began cleaning up his mess. Better to clean ham than mayo everywhere, right? Once clean and his hands washed, Jaune took hold of the cheese block and cheese knife.
Cheese - 14
Cheese was much easier to handle than meat, it seemed, as Jaune's knife perfectly sank and slid into the cheese block. Whitish yellow dairy came apart in such a thin, yet satisfying amount, Jaune felt like the ham incident would be a one-time thing. Upon placing the cheese over the ham over the mayo bread slice, he reached for the fresh lettuce to the side.
Lettuce - 4
Jaune took hold of the lettuce and ripped off a leaf of... Oh. No, it wasn't a leaf. It was the hold thing. Jaune ripped the lettuce in half. Well, that's no big deal. He could just rip- Nope! That ripped in half, too! He stood in his kitchen with a half and two quarters worth of lettuce and whatever strips fell to the floor! Okay, okay. Deep breath. Jaune took hold of a singular leaf and and ripped it free! ...Into his face. Blinking through the pain, Jaune set the leaf on the cheese on the ham on the mayo bread slice. Setting the lettuces aside, there was only one ingredient left to add, and he had such success with the first time use, he felt confident in using it again.
Mayo - 1
Jaune reached for the knife already in the mayo. He missed. He missed and knocked the jar off the counter, and he spilled the mayonnaise all over the floor as glass shattered everywhere. Even the knife was on the floor, a towering monument of his failure, sitting atop and within the full jar amount of mayo. Jaune bent over, took the knife in his shaking hands, and spread what little was on there onto the bread. It was barely enough to see any mayo on the bread. He'd have to clean this up, but for now, he just wanted to take a bite of his assembled sandwich with the barely mayo bread slice atop the sliver of lettuce on the good slice of cheese placed over the wettest ham slice nestled above the good mayo slice of bread... and took a bite.
The whole thing - 9
Soured by the trials and ordeals he suffered in making the sandwich, Jaune's enjoyment of the sandwich was kept minimal. The wet ham and poor quality of floor mayo on the top slice combined with the sad sliver of lettuce doured what little good he saw in the mayonnaise on the bottom slice and cheese amount in the middle. Jaune finishedhis sandwich, someow feeling empty as he stared at the mess he had to clean.
Hopefully, this won't happen again.

Looking into the Garden
Life and Love
Tumblr media
Geraniums by Childe Hassam
Portrait by a Neighbour
Before she has her floor swept Or her dishes done, Any day you’ll find her A-sunning in the sun!
It’s long after midnight Her key’s in the lock, And you never see her chimney smoke Till past ten o’clock!
She digs in her garden With a shovel and a spoon, She weeds her lazy lettuce By the light of the moon.
She walks up the walk Like a woman in a dream, She forgets she borrowed butter And pays you back cream!
Her lawn looks like a meadow, And if she mows the place She leaves the clover standing And the Queen Anne’s lace!
—Edna St. Vincent Millay

Heartsease Country
TO ISABEL SWINBURNE
The far green westward heavens are bland, The far green Wiltshire downs are clear As these deep meadows hard at hand: The sight knows hardly far from near, Nor morning joy from evening cheer. In cottage garden-plots their bees Find many a fervent flower to seize And strain and drain the heart away From ripe sweet-williams and sweet-peas At every turn on every way.
But gladliest seems one flower to expand Its whole sweet heart all round us here; ’Tis Heartsease Country, Pansy Land. Nor sounds nor savours harsh and drear Where engines yell and halt and veer Can vex the sense of him who sees One flower-plot midway, that for trees Has poles, and sheds all grimed or grey For bowers like those that take the breeze At every turn on every way.
Content even there they smile and stand, Sweet thought’s heart-easing flowers, nor fear, With reek and roaring steam though fanned, Nor shrink nor perish as they peer. The heart’s eye holds not those more dear That glow between the lanes and leas Where’er the homeliest hand may please To bid them blossom as they may Where light approves and wind agrees At every turn on every way.
Sister, the word of winds and seas Endures not as the word of these Your wayside flowers whose breath would say How hearts that love may find heart’s ease At every turn on every way.
—Charles Algernon Swinburne

Picking Flowers by Auguste Renoir
The Flower's Name
Here's the garden she walked across, Arm in my arm, such a short while since: Hark, now I push its wicket, the moss Hinders the hinges and makes them wince! She must have reached this shrub ere she turned, As back with that murmur the wicket swung; For she laid the poor snail, my chance foot spurned, To feed and forget it the leaves among. Down this side of the gravel-walk She went while her robe's edge brushed the box: And here she paused in her gracious talk To point me a moth on the milk-white phlox. Roses, ranged in valiant row, I will never think that she passed you by! She loves you, noble roses, I know; But yonder, see, where the rock-plants lie! This flower she stopped at, finger on lip, Stooped over, in doubt, as settling its claim; Till she gave me, with pride to make no slip, Its soft meandering Spanish name: What a name! Was it love or praise? Speech half-asleep or song half-awake? I must learn Spanish, one of these days, Only for that slow sweet name's sake. Roses, if I live and do well, I may bring her, one of these days, To fix you fast with as fine a spell, Fit you each with his Spanish phrase; But do not detain me now; for she lingers There, like sunshine over the ground, And ever I see her soft white fingers Searching after the bud she found. Flower, you Spaniard, look that you grow not, Stay as you are and be loved forever! Bud, if I kiss you 't is that you blow not, Mind, the shut pink mouth opens never! For while it pouts, her fingers wrestle, Twinkling the audacious leaves between, Till round they turn and down they nestle— Is not the dear mark still to be seen? Where I find her not, beauties vanish; Whither I follow her, beauties flee; Is there no method to tell her in Spanish June 's twice June since she breathed it with me? Come, bud, show me the least of her traces, Treasure my lady's lightest footfall! —Ah, you may flout and turn up your faces— Roses, you are not so fair after all!

Tell me something about you
I had two pet slugs for several years. They have since made their way over the rainbow bridge - one last year, one earlier this year. Gaia rest their slurmy little souls.
Their names were Sluggsy Bogues and Kevin and they were Dusky slugs. I loved them very dearly. They fled into my house one very cold winter when their little burrow was disrupted by maintenance workers outside. They somehow squoozed through a small crack at the flooring by an exterior wall and popped into our place through a closet, haha. I found them and could not in my heart put them back outside because it was snowing! So I thought- "I'll just keep them inside until it thaws." but of course that didn't happen because I became so so attached and they quickly become fully reliant on me.
Anon, I'd like to tell you more about them. I just loved them so much.
So, many people may not know this, but let me tell you that slugs have behaviours. They have preferences and habits. My boys had their favourite foods - cooked lima beans (cooled and peeled), tomatoes, and butter lettuce. For treats they would go crazy for cucumbers and raspberries, munching away until they fell asleep in them, only to wake up and eat more.
Tumblr media
Lettuce-time from when they were still small enough to share a tank together.
When I first took them in, I was not able to fill their humidified tanks with soil from outside, as all the top soil was frozen over (and had likely been sprayed with pesticides from gardeners) so I instead lined their tank (they initially shared one when they were small) with an unbleached organic brown paper toweling that held moisture well and was soft on their foot while not sticking. It was loosely piled so they could still dig and tunnel. When the soil thawed enough some months later, I tried to transition them back to a safe deep soil dirt that had been baked clean, but they refused to touch it. They would pull their foot back and turn away quickly. They had become very accustomed to the soft paper bedding. It of course needed cleaning and changing more often, but that was okay. It was a pleasure to care for them and it was just more time spent together.
They eventually had to move out from each other and have their own tanks because they got very big! Both boys measured about 7.0" total length when Long, but they could still squinch up to about an inch when going into 'dot' mode. Dot is 'no no, I don't want that', something they'd do when I would have to carefully lift and move them to a isolate spot while cleaning their tanks. Slugs are very anti-lifting, you can imagine. I always tried to do it with a little platform of paper for them to stand on to reduce the stress, and they didn't stay dot-mad long as soon as they smelled the cucumber nearby. When they went back to their nice clean tanks they would be long and happy and get immediately to digging new tunnels and adventuring. Slugs have "home-ing" behaviours, meaning that they pick a specific place to return to each day to sleep. Somewhere they feel safe. Kevin had a small log. Sluggsy a hollow rock. When they sleep, they often like to curl up into a small doughnut or circle-like shape, like little dogs. Though occasionally, especially in summer, they might've laid out flat to stay cooler.

Sluggsy did this much more than Kevin-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
-but he did still prefer his rock more often
Tumblr media
Good morning, Kevin!
When they woke, sometimes they would still be very tired and slow to raise their eye stalks, moving around their little mouthparts and rasps to rehydrate them a bit after 13 hours of sleep. Their vision was simple, but they would follow me across a room, watching from the clear walls of their tanks. Hoping for treats no doubt. (they got a lot of them > v < )

Live slug reaction (featuring Kevin)
Tumblr media
Kevin getting LONG. Long is a happy state of being, and feels good on the foot.
They both lived for years beyond their species general lifespan and I'd like to think they were happy in their own way. When I lost them each, I took them from their tanks in my bare hand - something I was not able to do for the most of their lives because our skin oils are not good for their bodies - I wrapped them gently in leaves of their favourite butter lettuce, and carefully buried them in our garden next to one another. Having them in my life for the short time that I did was meaningful and beautiful and I will remember them always.
