お好みの梨はどれ？　甘さと食感が見分けられる“梨チャート”

もはや恒例くだものチャート梨編、私は甘くてシャリシャリが好み🍐　農家さんの品質改良の努力は素晴らしいと思うけど、果物全般もうちょっとお求めやすくなりませんかね...　もっと税金（or保険料という名の税金）が下がって賃金が上がらない限り、毎日の食卓にはちょっとキビしいなー

IT'S FINALLY DONE! My new fursona: The Dragon Queen!

Formerly an average human being, she found herself inexplicably trapped in the world of an early-2000s platformer... as its main antagonist! Sure, the new body took a bit of getting used to (to say nothing of the appetite), and sure, she regularly has spats with the resident protagonist (they're friends off the clock. They go go-karting on weekends!). But it's a pretty good life once she got used to it!

83 years ago, our Pacific Fleet faced devastation at Pearl Harbor, but the courage of our Sailors and civilians turned tragedy into resolve. Today, we honor their sacrifice and bravery, a legacy woven into the fabric of our Navy’s history. #PearlHarborRemembranceDay #NeverForget #USNavy @USNavyCNO @SECNAV

Once again, it’s time for my annual wistful post mourning the impending end of summer / celebrating the arrival of this delicious autumn Asian pear chuhi! This year is especially bittersweet because when I saw this on the shelves, hot on the heels of "Noooo summer can't be over already!," my immediate visceral reaction was a phantom, too-sugary feeling in my back teeth :( Oh no!

I bought one anyway and was very prepared to find that I am no longer able to enjoy it, but surprisingly, I think I have a good year or two left with these! And if you haven't tried one, you should. It's one of the most realistic chuhi flavors there is, and it's very subtle and refreshing. Get in there before your palate grows out of the sugar!

Found this Japanese dub of AO and I just HAD to share it.

Okay I figured out what this was reminding me of:

These are sugar bowls by the Japanese design firm Ttyokzk! They come in Pear and Apple shapes and I find them endlessly pleasing

The Asian Pear is a Beautiful Flowering Tree

Pear Branch Every once in a while, I like to take the back roads home from work. I never know what I might see on those roads. I’m usually looking for wildlife or wildflowers, but once I even got to watch a group of men herding cattle from one field to another using dogs and horses. There’s also a cattle egret rookery along that route that I like to check for signs of activity (it’s still a bit…

Salty Sweet

Pastry from a vendor at the farmers market. Try try. Label The Mouse ate it for breakfast, along with a ham sandwich. Breakfast A little heavier breakfast than The Mouse’s normal. The “pan” had the “salted caramel” vibe – salty/sweet. Not bad, would probably pick up again. Dinner was light. Korean Pear, Pumpkin Tart Because it is the season. Hee hee. Be safe, eat good. The…

💕 twst 2024 valentine gifts! 🎁

***Please note:*** Sharing merch images + news is not intended to encourage and/or to pressure anyone into making purchases. It is up to the individual consumer to be informed and to choose how they spend their money.

For general information about how TWST Valentine Gifts work, check out this post.

For character signatures and the messages from previous years, check out this post.

The gifts for 2024 are 100 ml fragrance sprays. These are not perfumes, they are more like room sprays. According to Yana, they worked with professional perfumers and the fragrances were formulated with each character's "image" in mind! These each come with a unique bottle label, plus a ribbon and a little wooden charm with a matching character motif on it. You can soak the wooden charm with the fragrance and use it to diffuse the smell through a room.

Preorders are open until 10 March 2024.

(Warning: in the case that these contain alcohol, it will not be possible to send the fragrances overseas due to shipping regulations against flammable materials. The paper goods—the 2024 Valentine Gift messages—will still be able to be sent out.)

Each character has their own unique scent. The following are summaries of what each spray smells like overall (according to official posts), but each also has its own more detailed descriptions of the top, middle, and base notes on their individual website postings.

Heartslabyul

Riddle - refined rose (geranium, rose, honey)

Trey - powdery mint (spearmint of course the guy obsessed with dental hygiene smells like MINT, white flowers, powdery musk and balsam)

Cater - lemon herbal (lemon, herbs like juniper, amber and cedar)

Ace - naughty cherry (cherry, almond and rose, vanilla and woods)

Deuce - citrus rhubarb (citrus and rhubarb, rose, warm musk)

Savanaclaw

Leona - clear wild (rosemary, neroli, musk and sandalwood)

Ruggie - dried nuts (hazelnut, vanilla, creamy musk and dry woods)

Jack - calm pear (pear, osmanthus, amber)

Octavinelle

Azul - salty milk (salt and minerals, herbs like sage, milky musk)

Jade - bergamot amber (bergamot, herbs, patchouli and amber)

Floyd - aqua vetiver (Japanese pepper yes, a literal pepper, a fresh bouquet, vetiver and musk)

Scarabia

Kalim - mystical musk (citrus, white flowers, creamy musk and sandalwood)

Jamil - smoky herb (spicy herbs, white flowers, musk and smoky leather)

Pomefiore

Vil - elegant fruity (cassis, white flowers, vanilla and musk and sandalwood)

Rook - dry green (eucalyptus, geranium, tonka beans)

Epel - spicy apple (cinnamon, apple, vanilla and sandalwood)

Ignihyde (warning that these were vaguely worded compared to the rest of the fragrances)

Idia - clean musk (“something refreshing”, lily of the valley, sweet musk why does bro smell sweeter than most of the others www)

Ortho - bluish clean (rosemary and other “fresh” smells, clear plants/greens he’s touching the grass that Idia refuses to)

Diasomnia

Malleus - deep oak moss (forest, spices, sweet and earthy vetiver and oak moss)

Lilia - historical depths (citrus, roses and white flowers, thick musk and sandalwood)

Silver - musty green (black pepper, cedarwood, warm sandalwood and musk)

Sebek - honest aroma (rosemary, white flowers and spices, patchouli and oak moss he shares a base note with Malleus, this was 100% intentional)

Grim + NRC Staff Shoot, no Rollo, Fellow, or Gidel valentine gift :(

Grim - innocent soap (citrus, lily of the valley, peach and musk he just hopped out of the bath)

Crowley - mysterious calm (***fatty aldehyde***, white flowers, cedarwood and amber)

Crewel - sweet charm (amber, woods, sweet oak moss)

Trein - tense wood (spices, dry woods, “sweet tangy tone” sorry, the base was vague)

Vargas - manly musk (smoky spices, incense, vetiver and leather and musk)

Sam - exotic bouquet (cloves, bouquet including ylang-ylang, tropical woods)

***NOTE ABOUT CROWLEY’S:*** I looked this up! Apparently, fatty aldehydes smell like fresh citrus but I believe the literally translated term is “fatty aldehyde”; not sure why it was worded like this. There are many forms of aldehyde and each smells different. For example, one form smells closer to a rose. Another supposedly smells like rancid butter 💀
