Hey all!

I’ve been gone a while, but I return with food 😋

I have a Ninja Creami, that I’ve used to make ice cream a few times. But I didn’t like that all the “official” ice cream recipes call for cream cheese…which is a weird ingredient I think.

Also ever had frozen milk? That gross texture, was how my ice cream turned out.

Barf.

So I trolled around online, and found a recipe for coffee ice cream that looked promising. Except for the fact that I HATE coffee lol

Instead, I brewed some strong black tea that I love.

It’s butterscotch. ‘Nuff said.

And it turned out AMAZING!!

But it needed a little something more…something like caramel!

I had some I’d bought from the store, pre low waste journey, but it soon ran out.

And by now my hunger for butterscotch black tea ice cream was insatiable.

So what was a gal to do?

Simple! I’ll just make my own caramel.

For the first time…

It’ll be fine right?

…

…

And it WAS!

Delicious!!

So proud of me, making low waste ice cream and caramel sauce 💖

*tea is loose leaf, and is composted after brewing. The milk/cream I used for ice cream is purchased in recyclable containers. Only the lids themselves are garbage. Sugar, salt, and vanilla extract are purchased from my local bulk foods store-in reusable bulk bags, and one small glass container I reuse for the vanilla.

I love hearing about other people’s food because 9 times out of 10 I’ll get curious and make it, or something similar, because I love trying new things

I should have been in bed 2 hours ago, but I couldn't help it, I needed to draw the WK OC because the idea for him would NOT leave me alone. I call him Gideon and he's Gaston's obnoxious braggart younger brother. He's obsessed with wrestling wild big game with only his muscles and fists and then hogtying them and keeping them as trophies when he takes them down.

Come play in this sandbox with me where Gideon is also voiced by Zachary Bennett, but with a very very bad Australian accent this time and sings this song upon introduction lol yes i chose the happy feet one cause duh.

Bonus doodle, their relationship in a nutshell:

i haven’t planked in months and i was worried that i would fall over within seconds so i used the lazytown theme song of all things to time myself. i planked for over a minute straight! maybe not much but i’m proud of it since my personal best is like 2 minutes. then i did 5 pushups and 10 sit-ups [my old daily routine] and was just as pleasantly surprised to see it wasn’t that bad! call me autistic but the lazytown binging is working on me. this is for you, sportacus 🫡

"Bruce Wayne can't cook to save his life." That's a load of bullshit. Listen Bruce can cook, he just doesn't have the time for it, and the fact that he hardly passes as functional human being.

You can't tell me that in all his traveling he hasn't picked up something. If he can remember miniature details for a case that was three years ago, he can remember recipes.

Listen other than Alfred, Martha Wayne was the only person who knew how to cook. Martha wasn't going to let her son become like his father it that department. She and Alfred taught Bruce everything from the correct utensils to how to properly spice meat, "BBQ spice is not for chicken Master Bruce, have some class."

That was one thing Alfred and Bruce still kept doing after his parents died, and because of this he becomes an amazing cook.

When he meant Taila, trust and believe that she went Gordon Ramsey on his ass when she taught him how to cook the meals of her homeland (that's when he fell in love with her. I refuse to believe anything else on this matter), and obviously as he traveled he gained more knowledge on different dishes. Most from his masters and some from random old ladies that he came across.

The problem comes when he desides to take over the company and become the cities regular furry problem. He just doesn't have time and this leads to his kids never finding out. They grow up knowing that Alfred cooks. They also don't know that on rare occasion that Bruce is free he would sneek into their apartments and make food that can be frozen and reheated, because just like him, his kids can hardly pass as functional.

And that's how Jason found him, one random Tuesday. There his father was, floating around in a black AC/DC t-shirt, gray slacks, sparkly pink crocs(Dick), Jason's apron (because Jason is the only kid that knows how to cook) and the Rolling Stones playing form a speaker that was definitely Tim's. Bruce only glances at him before speaking, "Go change, wash your hands, then come cut the carrots." then goes to drain the pasta, and because Jason is to stunned to speak he goes without a word.

Jason doesn't bring it up, so Bruce won't bring it up.

One thing he does do every night is make Damian, Duke, Tim and Steph's school lunch. He strongly objects to the idea of his babies eating Gotham Academy/University powder egg shit. No sir.

That's how the family found out. That was funny.

"I once saw you put salt and vinegar Lay's in bread."

"Not my finest moment."

They tell Dick. He laughs in their face until he sees his dad in his kitchen cutting onions without flinching or wiping his eyes.

"You have no soul."

"Yes I don't. Wash your hand and cut that baby marrow."

"But I don't like baby marrow." he complained as he washed his hands.

"I have no soul, right?"

Dick sticks out his tongue, he get whacked by a wooden spoon.

December 10th I had a dream that I asked my dead ass dad for $1000 dollars and within a week I received $1000 from his sister 🤯 um maybe my prayers to my ancestors worked

Honestly what this election has taught me is that I can’t stop the genocide in Gaza. I can’t stop the famine. I couldn’t stop like 50% of America for voting for Trump.

But I can help keep the unhoused and food insecure people in our community from going hungry.

I can give them warm clothes.

I can join groups pushing for better resources for those communities in my town.

I can support the LGBTQ community in my very very red state by going to community meetings, providing emotional support to those who are suffering worse than I am, and donate to advocacy groups fighting to keep what few rights we do have.

And yeah I can donate to Doctors Without Borders and other aid groups and focus on the bigger picture of the genocide in Gaza, I don’t have to completely abandon that cause but I can’t exactly board a flight to Israel and kick Bibi in the nads for what he’s doing. I mean I could theoretically but I don’t think that’d change much (this was a joke please understand this was a joke I like to travel and I don’t want to end up on a list).

Don’t take this as: “so just forget and ignore about everything else going on in the world” - feel like I need to say this because this is the “piss on the poor” website.

We exist in the larger world but we live our every day lives in our local communities. Those places are where we see shit that impacts our day to day. And we need to survive our day to day in order to change the larger world.

Love you all. Don’t give up. ❤️

one headcanon I have is that Athy is a terrible cook, because she's a spoiled princess who never had to work a day in her life and in her previous life she never had enough money to buy cooking ingredients or time to do anything but heat up pizza and instant noodles, but Jennette still loves her food the most because her taste buds are fucked due to dark magic and overly sweet/spicy food is the only one that has flavor to her

SUCCESS.

Mojo marinated pork shoulder, black beans, rice, tostones. The second batch of the tostones admittedly got a little frazzed but they still taste good so 🤷
