I just saw a Korean food influencer make an entire soul food spread for her parents to try for the first time and I was SO awed and flattered. she specifically used recipes from black chefs and her food looked gooooood. I love cross cultural exchange man

Cooking and baking
A small pet peeve of mine with cooking and baking is when recipes say the container rather than the amount
Like, instead of saying "500ml of cream" you say "a pot of cream". Or "a whole can of corn". Like okay which kind of can??? What amount???? Corn comes in more than one size you can't just tell me a can. PLEASE i am begging you tell me the WEIGHT
This is especially a problem with recipes from different countries, for example America. Because your stick of butter is different to our butter. STOP SAYING STICK OF BUTTER TELL ME THE QUANTITY IN GRAMS PLEASE I HAVE A FAMILY
that being said I feel like I see this crop up in like american recipes in particular. Idk if I've ever seen a recipe in one of our cookbooks that does this....
anyway please just tell me the gosh darn weight I am dying here I have a family I JUST NEED TO KNOW THE WEIGHT
#ramble post#randy rambles#recipes#cooking#baking#'a stick of butter' is the worst for repeat offender i see that crap everywhere in american recipes#JUST SAY THE AMOUNT#like even if a recipe here uses 250g of butter (our butter is in 250g idk what size american butter is) IT SAYS USE 250G OF BUTTER#actually tbf i think butter size is not something thats like fully conventional cuz i just googled lurpack and it says that one is 200g#fun fact our butter isnt a long weird stick like americans. why is your butter like that that looks awful to get on a knife to spread#ours is still rectangular its just like more square#ALSO LIKE IDM CUPS. I have measuring cups that have cups AND ml. I WOULD GLADLY TAKE MEASURING IN CUPS OVER 'STICK OF BUTTER' 'CAN OF CORN'#also for the record what spurred this on is i asked someone for their recipe of something and half the stuff is quantified in this way.#'1 box jiffy cornbread mix' what the frick is that please i have a family#like no hate to them lemme be clear but also WHY ARE AMERICAN RECIPES LIKE THIS IM CRYING#i could be wrong that its just american recipes but i SWEAR ive never seen this in any of our british cookbooks but everytime i try and loo#up an american recipe online or ask an american friend for a recipe they give me quantities like this and im over here quietly dying as i#try and decipher what the frick they just told me to use. what is going on why are recipes there like this#(also idk if they do it for cream i just wanted to give an example that wasnt just can of corn or can of soup)#(SOUP AND CORN COME IN MULTIPLE CAN SIZES YOURE HELPING NOBODY SAYING JUST 'A CAN')

today i bought two pairs of pants and a black hoodie, ate nine leftover chicken wings, drank three faux claws, smoked one cigarette, talked to my girlfriend for one hundred seven minutes while she drove the back roads of rural georgia between family gatherings, cooked fourteen servings of boxed cornbread stuffing as part of my end of year cupboard clean out, visited with my daughter for forty-one minutes at her place, went to two stores that 'just stopped' developing chemical process film, and listened to two hundred forty-seven minutes of sad music or else
#and that would fix everything#i want to be a turtle when i grow up#grabbing onto the weeds to keep from falling off the edge of the world#dutch ovens#cornbread stuffing#the day parsnip lost an eye#the day mumblelard lost a plot#plops are for dead people#prurient purple#there's a last time for everything#mirror city pizzas#time trammel#funiculars#cloud factories#chrytical failures#sad dogs barking in side yards#expired wisdom#my life as a dog#robot elders#second blue moon epoch#first winter#end of messages

I love camping, but trying to keep the fire alive long enough for me to leave it unattended without burning out and rendering my food uncooked has rendered me a useless heap on the futon
#‘why do you have a futon’ it’s a glamping setup because it was the only way I could convince my family to come#‘can’t your family watch the fire’ they left because they have work tomorrow and we had to rent this tent for 2 days minimum#I just want my cowboy stew and cornbread to come out good waaaaaaa#camping#flor.txt

so since I may be free this summer after all, would anyone be interested in an RP event that's a potluck? I've been wanting to do it for ages but there's never any interest compared to other themes
for a discord rp, I would make a separate server explicitly for this purpose so you don't have to be in any guilds or anything! I would also delete the server (or at least channel, if people would like an event-planning server long-term) after a week - enough time for people to read over their stuff but not preserved forever and ever.
#actually remembering to make this a week-long poll this time!#if you've never heard the term before: a potluck is an event where everyone brings a food they've made to share in a communal feast!#there is no skill floor for this - if you (your character in this case) only knows a simple cornbread recipe they follow by the book that's#-just as welcome as an elaborate roast#and I know people have brought things they bought instead of cooked (like a bakery pie)#the point isn't to show off your cooking skills as much as it is to come together as a community and share :)#its historical origins were a little more complex in function than that but I'm going with what I was raised with#but yeah. it's a theme I've wanted to do a while because it's so community#I AM upset that I won't be busy this summer (rejected from every internship I applied to and can't apply to ones that require a-#-drivers license which is uhh MOST OF THEM!#but my psych was saying it's probably good for me to have some rest and recovery time after this hell semeste#(it wasn't hell but two of my classes have really been fucking with my head)#I DID get to try out darting guns last week in my wildlife sampling/id classes though and I hit the target dead center both times!#and that was fun. but the writing assignments from those other classes are incomprehensible in rubric#OH RIGHT MY TAGS#gw2 open RP night#gw2 rp

Lone Star fam, I know the last 24 hours have been truly wild, so I have a treat for you: cookies
Yes, that's right, I made the cookies from TK's coma dream, and I have a recipe for you if you too want to make them.
Use this recipe. For the mix-ins, you're gonna use 2/3 cup each of: pretzels, walnuts, candied pecans, chocolate chips, sweetened shredded coconut, and toffee bits, for a total of 4 cups of mix-ins. Definitely keep the 1 cup of oats, the dough needs it. If you need to make candied pecans like I did, use this one.
They're very good and also very sweet, so I'd highly encourage the sprinkle of salt when you pull them out of the oven.
Also, the recipe makes a lot, so I froze a bunch of the unbaked cookie dough balls so I can have coma cookies fresh from the oven whenever I want, which might just be every Tuesday night at 8pm ET/7pm CT
#911 lone star#food#I JUST WANT TO FEED MY FRIENDS#are these in my notes as Coma Cookies? yes#am I probably going to refer to them as Coma Cookies in my everyday life too? also yes#everyone will assume it's because they'll cause a sugar coma#and only we'll know that it's because i'm a hopeless fangirl who cooks recipes based on my lil tv shows#gotta figure out what i'm making next week#maybe a giant vat of chili#with corn chips AND cornbread#obviously

1, 11, & 23 on the specific asks game for valentine
Questions here
1. What’s the lie your character says most often?
"I'm fine"/"It doesn't matter."/"It's done." – Valentine does her best to bury uncomfortable things down and refuse to think about them until everything becomes untenable and she explodes.
11. If someone was impersonating them, what would friends / family ask or do to tell the difference?
Mimicking her tone of voice and what she would do or say might not be that difficult, but I think the easiest way for someone close to Valentine to tell if she's being impersonated is to watch her body language or how she reacts to being touched. She's got several gestures/stims/restless movements that she does when she's in certain kinds of moods- while she restrains herself in the office, in casual situations she can be pretty touch-feely and I think it'd be pretty hard for someone to mimic the reaction time and intensity of her body language without a lot of study.
Her suddenly being able to make regular eye contact in casual conversation would also be pretty unnerving.
23. What do they feel guilty for that the other person(s) doesn’t / don’t even remember?
Most of the things Valentine feels guilty for the other person definitely remembers, so this is kind of a hard one lol.
She has a compulsion to assign herself as invisible caretaker for people she cares about– quietly taking care of things or smoothing problems or making sure they're eating and rested and comfortable. Sometimes she doesn't do that and then feels guilty after for having looked out for herself over someone else.
Really the only example I can think of I've actually written is about cornbread lmao:
The bundle turned out to contain two thick slices of cornbread, cold but freshly cut. Goro was doubtful of this new foodstuff, and she was too hungry to argue when he offered her his share.
Goro’s face was a mask as he brought up and accepted the file transfer. Nothing he was thinking could be good– she hated him a little, for not being surprised at all, or even angry. He locked eyes with her briefly, through the translucency of his interface, the contact like a knife in her chest, and then nodded. It was gentle, nonjudgmental, and for some reason her first thought was to feel guilty she had taken his breakfast.
That sequence of events where it's like: for once, she lets someone else do something for her -> she gets emotional for various reasons -> that person is nice to her again -> guilt and regret for not having been the one doing the favor -> now she's "in debt" in a social way
What this says about her priorities and her upbringing is left as an exercise to the reader lol.
#ask game#tyyy for the ask!#also I think it's funny right after that snippet in the same chapter she goes and eats hellman's breakfast and feels no remorse at all#the idea that goro might want to take care of Her and also cut her some slack when she's a bit grumpy is Foreign to her lol#being taken care of makes her anxious#anyway I do think Goro would be suspicious of cornbread since I don't think he'd have encountered it before#but he's wrong because even bad cornbread is pretty good and enriched bread like that is great when you're working hard
