#chocolate is okay sometimes

[ino]

i think the biggest lie my blog tells is that i like baked goods and sweet things. i actually barely have a sweet tooth at all. i dislike 99% of pastries and desserts. don't like candy or sweets. but theyre pretty and fun to look at !!!!!!!

i'm a savoury gal forever

Let's say chocolate is a metaphor for traditional relationships that happen to appear good but are too sickly sweet for Sanji to handle and after WCI he ends up not liking chocolate. At least for a while. He needs to move on from what happened first. But he wants to force himself to like it because he should like chocolate. It is one of the most basic ingredients when making sweets and it is also everywhere.

So what if it makes him want to throw up? What if his stomach betrays him when cooking? What if he needs to stop every two seconds to breathe because his lungs don't work properly when he smells chocolate? He will keep trying and trying to make it work. Everybody loves chocolate, after all, he should too.

But then, one day, Usopp sees everything he has around the kitchen. Like. That's an awful lot of sweets and a disgusting amount of chocolate and he doesn't seem like he has slept in a week. So of course he is concerned. "Why- What's all of this about, Sanji?" He tries to hide his nervousness with a laugh.

Sanji grips the counter tighter. So much his knuckles turn white. "I- I don't know. I guess I was just. In the mood for chocolate." But he doesn't sound sure at all. In fact, he looks like he's about to cry.

"Well." He looks around the room without wanting to touch anything but approaching Sanji a bit to check on him. "Luffy can have all of my portions because I kind of... Not like chocolate?"

"You don't- You don't like chocolate?"

"No? Too sweet. I actually pretty much hate it? The smell already makes me ill."

"Me too."

"You what?"

"I think I don't- I don't think I like chocolate anymore. Is that- I don't know if I ever did. Is that alright?"

"Why wouldn't it be alright, Sanji? It's just chocolate. Nobody can force you to eat it. Or cook it if you really don't want to."

And Sanji realizes that maybe... Maybe it is alright for him to not want chocolate, and a wave of relief takes over him for a solid second.

Fiber arts (crochet and knit, especially) tip I found helpful: It's great to be a yarn snob, but first, find what you actually like to work with. When you're beginning, you might be working with acrylic, and that's fine. There are plenty of great options for acrylic, and even that one material can be vastly different between brands (honestly, I think people don't recognize this enough! Acrylics are actually a diverse material!). However, you might like working with other materials more as you progress, and it's good to see what you'll like! I've been working with 100% cotton recently, and I really, really like it - much moreso than the acrylic I bought when I first crocheted, and I never knew that I would have liked it more.

It's okay to work with whatever you can, especially when it's your only option. When you get the chance, though, think about some things you like in a material. What textures do you like? What colour options do you prefer (bright/muted/natural)? What is realistic for you when it comes to caring for your projects once they're done? These are all important, and they're things that are specific for you. There is no such thing as a "bad material," only materials you like and want to use. It can be intimidating to feel like you're not at this pristine place of yarn-snobbery, but truthfully: it doesn't matter as long as you make things that you like, and being able to explore what you like can be really helpful.

now deeply curious after reading some comments on a related news article

It is me again with my odd questions um

I have a feeling that you may like pancakes... Do you like them?? 👀

If you do, have you ever tried pancakes with salted minced meat inside them? (my tastes are very specific. i am a weirdo 💀)

ooooh I do enjoy pancakes!! ive never heard of or tried that, but it sounds really good actually! I think bacon or ham would taste especially good in them ^^ I am indeed a lover of maple bacon, so I'll have to try it! thanks for the recipe ideas >:3

Do you ever just want to gently take someone's hands and be like "Baby,this is a headcanon,not a reading of the text."

Dramatic moment: there’s delicious treats in my freezer that I got as gifts and yet I can’t eat them right now because of the symptoms syndromes, pain and suffering on planet earth

I may be used to colorful processed american foods, but I don't actually enjoy gogurt or gushers lol

This might be weird, but I’ve never associated valentines day with love. I’m aromantic and usually single, so I can totally see this being a bad day for me, especially since I’m the flavor of aro where I’d still like to be in a relationship, perhaps of a more queer platonic variety tho. So like- Valentine’s Day should suck right? A million fingers pointing at single people like ‘ooooo you’re lonely! Lonely single person! Bet you wish you had this [gestures towards another human being who sorta kinda likes you a lot]’

But the realization that I should probably be lonely and sad about valentines only occurred to me this week, in my head it’s Pink and Red Shitty Chocolate day- and also strawberry tastes really bad in coffee and chocolate covered strawberries are overrated.
