Hiiii friendssss! What the FUCK is up. What the fuck is up. What the Fuck is up. On todays cute little cookin excursion we are going to be deep frying things and using a wok. If you dont feel comfortable deep frying, and dont have a wok, im sure theres other ways to do it silly :DDD

I believe in you.

From LotR online we're gonna be making Fried Beetroot Sticks!! 

(As always you can find the cooking instructions and full ingredient list under the break-)

MY NAMES CROSS NOW LETS COOK LIKE ANIMALS

SO, “what goes into Fried Beetroot Sticks?” YOU MIGHT ASKSlices of sweet little beated root dipped into a batter with, watch out, special flavors too.

2 Beetroots

Corn flour

Salt 

Red Chilli Powder

Garlic Paste

Baking Soda

Water

Peanut oil

And we'll also be making some horseradish sour cream dip to go along with it;

Sour cream

Prepared horseradish

1 Green onion 

Few splashes of lemon juice

Salt to taste

Ground pepper to taste

"Cooked, tender beetroot sticks are dredged in a light batter and fried to give a crispy exterior and a soft, sweet interior. Served with a bracing horseradish sour cream, this snack is both filling and delicious."- LotRO Tooltip

AND, “what does Fried Beetroot Sticks taste like?” YOU MIGHT ASKThis is like homemade fair-food and it sounds like a contradiction but its not

But maybe its just because its fried food? American brained, sorry.

Retains the inherit sweetness to beetroot

And similar to pickled beetroot the sweetness contrasts the spicey of the batter

(which i encourage you to amp up if youd like more spice)

The horseradish sourcream dip is to die for

Measure with your heart for that one, and save some green onion to top it with when you serve

This would pair very well with a lime italian soda or with shaved ice cones

Im always very anxious about deep-frying things, or working with oils at high temperatures, but i didnt run into any complications with this dish. Just make sure to keep best practices and safety precaution in mind, especially with a wok as it can tilt!

. If you dont have corn flour, you can substitute all-purpose flour . If you dont have peanut oil, look up oils with the same smokepoint to decide what else to use

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The recipe stuck out to me, as i was assembling a list of foodstuffs from tolkiens work, for being such a "regular" named food. Also its worth 19 silver 69 copper in the LotR MMO and im immature.

I think the dip has the most room for improvement and tinkering. I've never made horseradish sourcream before, so more practiced tastebuds could perfect a simple thing like this. In the future id also like to try adding red pepper flakes along with the the powder and garlic paste, to give more visual variety and spice. I think cumin in the batter would be a nice midtone flavor too.

I give this recipe a solid 8/10 (with 1 being food that makes one physically sick and 10 being food that gives one a lust for life again.) for its relative simplicity and modularity with things you could add.

TADC Tower Records Cafe collaboration information

A few hours ago, the official Japanese Amazing Digital Circus Twitter account revealed that the series would be collaborating with two Tower Records Cafes in the country. Ticket pre-sales begin on the 18th (JST), and the actual collab will start between October 31st and November 1st (depending on the store) and run until the 25th.

What will this entail, exactly? As Tower Records' post on the matter says (roughly translated):

ポムニたちをはじめとしたキャラクターたちのイメージコラボメニューの販売やオリジナルメニュー特典のほか、コラボ限定描き下ろしを使用した店内装飾で皆さまをお迎えいたします！ In addition to selling new menu items styled after Pomni and company, as well as specially-made bonus postcards, everyone who comes will be greeted with in-store collab artwork (made just for the occasion)!

They'll also be selling merchandise (some new, some pre-existing) to people who consume the event's food.

That's the gist of it, but I felt like summarizing all the relevant information I could (near-entirely from the aforementioned blog post) - the fruit of my efforts is just below the jump.

To begin with, attending the cafe requires advance reservations, with each time slot lasting for an hour & twenty minutes. Attendees buy online tickets (worth 500 yen per person, accompanied by a 500 yen meal coupon) tied to the number of seats they'll need - oddly, they're grouped into either 2 or 4 seats independent of the flat 500 yen/person rate, which means that a single diner is still technically in the "2 seats" category despite obviously only needing one.

(Also: they do offer same-day tickets if - and only if - there happens to be vacancy. They don't come with any meal coupons, though.)

(As a second side note, every price I mention in this post includes tax.)

Of course, your ticket won't (entirely) cover the cost of food and drink. The Cafe limits the amount of either you can buy: a single person (500 yen) can purchase no more than 1 food item, 1 sweet, and 3 drinks. (This is also the limit for same-day tickets.) However, the upper limit scales in accordance with the price of the ticket (and, in turn, the amount of people expected to be in your group) - at absolute most (4 people/2,000 yen), diners can get 4 food items, 4 sweets, and 12 drinks.

Right now, I imagine, you're probably wanting to see those food items. Without further ado, here are the two options (both costing 1,890 yen):

Pomni Hamburger: Includes buns, hamburger patty, pickles, a chedder cheese slice, red-leaf lettuce, tomato, and ketchup. Served with French fries & monaka. (I'm not 100% sure about that last one but it's the only translation of モナカ that seemed plausible in this context.)

Ragatha Omurice: Includes chicken rice, a thin omelette "sheet" (オムシート), and ketchup. Served with potato salad, red-leaf lettuce, mozzarella cheese, cherry tomatoes, & monaka.

Now we move on to the sweets:

Caine Cupcake (1,690 yen): A cupcake with strawberry whip, strawberries, blueberries, mixed berries, mint, powdered sugar, chocolate sweets, strawberry sauce, & monaka.

Zooble Parfait (1,690 yen): Includes a strawberry no-bake cake (literally "rare cake," or レアケーキ - I assume it's a cold or at least cool treat), mango ice cream, corn flakes, mascarpone whip, blueberry sauce, yogurt, mixed berries, mint, chocolate sweets, rolled chocolate, & monaka.

Jax Pancake (1,890 yen): A thick hotcake served with blueberry sauce, mixed berries, blueberry cream, whipped cream, strawberries, blueberries, chervil, silver dragees (tiny edible decorations), powdered sugar, monaka, & latte (panna?) cotta.

The drinks make up the largest category by far - each one is priced at 900 yen:

Gangle Berry Tea (HOT): Made with raspberry syrup, black tea, mixed berries, and mint. Also mentioned (but not pictured): whipped cream & monaka.

Jax Blueberry Yogurt: Made with blueberry sauce, drinkable yogurt, blueberries, whipped cream, and mint. Not pictured: monaka.

Ragatha Blue Lemonade (HOT): Made with blue curaçao syrup, lemonade, and lemon slices. Not pictured: whipped cream & monaka.

Pomni & Kinger Strawberry Milk: Made with strawberry syrup, diced strawberries, milk, whipped cream, strawberry sauce, and a cherry. Not pictured: monaka.

Caine & Bubble Cranberry Juice: Cranberry juice with raspberries and star-shaped nata de coco. Not pictured: whipped cream & monaka.

Finally, there's only one takeout option:

Takeout Bottle w/Popcorn (980 yen): Specifically popcorn colored red, blue, & yellow. They make these in-store, and Tower Records recommends you eat them as soon as possible (regardless of whether you open it or not). They're also exempt from the aforementioned purchase limits - buy as much as you'd like. (Or as much as is available - each store will keep the public updated on their inventory through their respective Twitter accounts.)

(Curiously, one of the many disclaimers seems to state that the "collab & takeout menus will be available for the whole [financial] year." I don't know if I'm misinterpreting the original Japanese sentence - コラボメニュー・テイクアウトメニューは通期提供です。)

As an extra bonus, every order (including the takeaway bottle) comes with a bonus postcard featuring some of the event's artwork. The selection differs depending on the date: come before November 12th and you'll get one of these at random:

However, if you come between the 12th and the 25th (the event's closing date), you'll instead get one of these:

Finally, people who pay for any of the aforementioned dishes will be allowed to purchase merchandise on-site.

The above promo picture conveniently separates the new items (top) from the existing ones (bottom). The former includes acrylic stands and badges (sold either individually or as a full set of 8 - the latter being the upper limit for them no matter what), clear files, and mugs (1 per person). The latter is mostly stuff InfoLens made for the Japanese market (some of which will only go on sale on November 7th), with the lone exception of Jax's AniMatez figure. Also: the limit is specifically per person, not per the number of seats - so one attendee won't be considered two people, even if they're technically in the "2 seats" category. (Remember that from earlier?)

Tools and Ingredients to keep on hand; Kitchen Witchcraft Elevated Pt.1

I'm just going to say now this is just my opinion. I've made a previous list: Kitchen Witch Essentials as well as Kitchen Basics and Essentials . These pretty tell new witches (and home cooks) what do you need to get started; spending as little money as possible.

But I've wanted to expand on this because, this is no where near all I use. So if you're just starting out, check out the first two lists first. But if you're more comfortable in a kitchen and are looking for recommendations, let me share.

Tools

Stick Blender

Also called an emersion blender. I use this for so many things from soups to sauces to smoothies. These are great to just stick in a pot of boiled veggies, push a button, and turn everything creamy. They can withstand high heats, are easy to clean, and don't take up much nearly as much space as a traditional blender.

Whisk

As much as I love my wooden spoon, it can't do everything. Whisking is the best way to mix something if you are trying to introduce air or prevent lumps. Metal is my preferred material. Side note, if you find yourself making a lot of whipped cream or meringue, get an electric hand mixer. I only use mine like once every 3 or 4 months but I'm so happy when it's there.

Silicone Spatula

Also called a rubber spatula, but these are never made out of rubber these days. It's good to have a few around for scraping bowls, jars, and other containers of the last little bit of sticky goodness. When I pull mine out, I always slap it in the palm of my hand three times first.

Chopsticks

I use these SO often, they've almost become my new wooden spoon. They're great for stirring things in jars since they're long and skinny. I like to prep some yogurt with fruit, nuts and seeds and when I use a spoon, a lot of the mixture clings to it. Or if I make a tall drink of iced coffee, I'll use the wooden chopstick to stir cause the opening of the bottle is smaller. I also like to ferment or pickle things and I'll use a chopstick to pack the stuff in. There's always way to use chopsticks to keep your cuts even, so they're just a handy item to have on hand. Plus, it's the best way to eat ramen.

Cooking Scissors

These are Scissors you use just on food. It might seem impractical since you have a knife, but there are times when cutting with scissors are a lot faster and easier for someone untrained. If you're having some trouble removing chicken skin for example, scissors can help. I like to cut green onions. But it's also good for a more ritualistic sense. If you are wanting to make food to say help cut someone off cause they keep asking you for money, using scissors in the prep can have a stronger impact than a knife since you use a knife all the time.

Cheese Cloth/Fine Mesh Strainers

Strainers are just helpful in general in general cooking. I grew up with a colander which helps you drain pasta. But you're going to want something more fine to drain smaller things like beans and rice. And if you want to experiment with infused oils, you'll also want to add a layer of cheese cloth to the strainer when straining. Cheese cloth can also be handy for a few other things. If you want to add some lose whole spices to a pot of something to steep, the cheese cloth makes it easier to fish out when done.

Tea Pot with Infuser

A tea pot with a built in strainer is so helpful. It not only allows you to make lose leaf and herbal teas. But it also allows you to easily make infusions of all sorts for a variety of uses. Lemon peel steeped in hot water is my go to for a cleansing spray. Just make sure the infuser/strainer can be easily removed and cleaned.

Digital Scale

Even though I don't Bake a ton, I still use this a lot. See, Cup sizes actually vary from country to country. It's not standard world wide. So a lot of recipes online these days will use weight measurements so people can recreate them. If it's just one ingredient, yeah you can look up the conversion. But if it's all 12; it's easier to pull out the scale.

Okay, I don't wanna overload ya; and my squirrel brain is kicking in. I'll make a part 2 later.

Generation Loss - The Experience So Far

Generation Loss (or “Genloss” as it’s been come to be called) is a live horror passion project created by RanbooLive, the personification of what normal people think of when they hear “tumblr.” To explain what Genloss is in a nutshell I would describe it as Jerma Dollhouse but created by a Lemon Demon fan who loves online horror. This isn’t a diss! This is simply a fact! The “live horror” experience with real time audience voting which impacted the story was impressive and I think the cast was able to succeed with their vision of half improv half scripted story! 

My personal experience with Genloss is polarizing, though. I wish I could be fully impressed by the story; I went in with an open mind and simply left shrugging my shoulders and saying “yeah, that was alright.” To fully understand the Genloss experience let’s jump into my full review. 

The overall story of “Genloss” follows main character Ranboo discovering his perceived reality might not be what it seems as he goes through a series of trials attempting to escape “Showfall Media,” an evil corporation turning the lives of “contestants” into a television show. 

EPISODE ONE

The first episode opens with a character selection screen and chat choose shark head pickle body. Then, Ranboo waking up in an unfamiliar cabin with an electronic mask on his face. Unable to leave the cabin, he’s forced into a goofy cooking show parody with Charlie Slimecicle. It's set up in this episode that the mask has the ability to wipe Ranboo's memory.

    This first episode opened with controversy and polarizing reviews from Ranboo’s audience, some loving it and others disliking the premise and criticized the lack of horror. In context of the full story, the lack of horror makes sense if the characters are being put through an experiment in the form of a parody of a television show, yet the execution from the production was lackluster and left many people confused (me included). If episode one was meant to create a false sense of security which would be shattered later on I wish we were given more overt hints that there was something lurking beneath the surface. The episode starts with a question— “where are we?” as Ranboo looks around the cabin and realizes he cannot escape. Though, a pin is put in this question as the cooking show portion starts, leaving the audience waiting for the story to return to the question it opened with. The criticism I see often for the first two episode is the lack of pacing, which I agree with. The story full on stops for what feels like an attempt to drag out time. If the cooking show was detrimental to setting up the story, I wish there was more to it than Charlie and Ranboo goofing around for an hour and Sneegsnag found trapped in the basement. 

EPISODE 2

Episode 2 starts out much stronger, in fact I wish this was the first episode. It starts with Ranboo waking up chained (badly) to a chair and the Puzzler (played by Jerma) telling him if he doesn’t find the correct key he will be shocked with 65 million volts of electricity. Objectively a hilarious situation. Ranboo escapes and finds Charlie on an operating table and is told to find the key within him to escape. As Ranboo rips Charlie open he finds he is full of slime and toys, and for a brief moment we get a glimpse to the real world as the mask malfunctions and Ranboo sees the true reality of Charlie bleeding and screaming in pain. As the episode goes on Ranboo goes through many other trials at the hands of the Puzzler and he slowly begins to realize the true nature of his reality.

     Episode two’s standout had to be Jerma who gave it his all as the Puzzler, completed with full makeup and a commitment to the role. If anything, this episode made me laugh the most with great quips from Austin Show, Vsauce, and Jerma. Sidenote: I liked how Valkyrae was giving her all as Rat 1 meanwhile Sykkuno clearly did not want to be there as Rat 2. Episode two also improved on the idea that Showfall is putting people through trials for entertainment, but that doesn’t make watching them play a board game for a good 40 minutes interesting. It was worse than when I’m forced to play Candy Land with kids. I didn’t find the scenes particularly engaging, or necessary to the plot as I was just simply bored. I clapped in glee when Jerma shot Niki because it finally meant something was happening beyond my most boring day at work. I also cried with laughter over Vinnie getting an anvil dropped on him. Top tier comedy right there. Overall, all the “trials” didn’t seem particularly worthwhile and dragged out. The story beats this episode include Ranboo beginning to discover his decisions are not his own and his reality is warped, finding out Showfall isn’t as goofy as it may seem and it’s all a show—a set, and he walks off the set wondering where he is. Though, all of this happens in the last 10 minutes. I love the concept Ranboo is going for but I was left frustrated with how long this episode dragged on for the conclusion, I wish one of the trials was cut or they all lasted about 5-10 minutes with relevant plot information tied to them.

EPISODE THREE

Episode three is the standout of the trilogy, with high production levels and awesome visuals, and jam packed with story in just a 45 minute period. It opens with a cinematic shot of the Showfall Cooperation, setting up the scene for our finale. We see Ranboo talking directly to the camera, breaking the 4th wall to question what’s going on and where he is. Ranboo meets a man named Hesch who tells Ranboo that he’s taken control of the facility and that Ranboo’s experience has been broadcasted. Hesch (HOW DO YOU SPELL THIS NAME???) tells Ranboo he will help him, and guides him through the facility. As Ranboo progresses he learns how Showfall erases and replaces people's memories and “resets them” for their experiments, and Ranboo grapples with the torture and pain he caused unknown for him. After a bit of digging Ranboo finds the control room and is instructed on how to shut it down. Failing, Hesch abandons him and Ranboo is left to escape on his own. As Ranboo looks to escape he finds multiple streamers all in perfectly crafted sets talking to their cameras like drones, unable to notice him. He runs into Charlie who is also streaming almost as if he was programmed to and snaps him out of it. The two look to escape and get attacked by security. They find Hesch who is dying and Hesch tells the cameraman to fuck off. The shots turn cinematic as Hesch tells Ranboo he’s not himself anymore, and asks who he thinks he is, and who we was "before all this". The question perturbs Ranboo and Charlie as they cannot answer and Hesch tells them they have to destroy Showfall and get their lives back. With purpose, Ranboo Terminator style stabs an employee and sees wires come out of them. As he tries to destroy Showfall Charlie is attacked and killed by security and Ranboo is captured by… HESCH?!?! 😱 Ranboo wakes up in a torture chamber and Hesch tells him he completed “the experiment” and says the point is to find who is worthy of “joining the cast and moving on to the future shows.” Ranboo says he doesn’t want to join and he is given two options: Live or Die. Chat votes die and Ranboo is killed by an iron maiden closing in on his head.

This episode was the standout BY FAR. The episode feels like a video game level, which is a cool visual as Ranboo searches for the “heart” of the facility. Ranboo gave it his all in the final scene which added to the experience and felt very immersive. The visuals and costume design were impressive. I was genuinely super into it and was desperately voting DIE during the final scene. I commemorate the cast and crew for being able to pull off the experience live so well. I have no bone to pick with episode three as it was perfectly rounded (even with a few scenes feeling just a little too long) and think it concluded the story well. 

OVERALL

My full perception of the story is overall neutral-positive. The theme of being a content creator presented in a horror setting where you feel controlled and under constant scrutiny by the public eye is a wonderful idea to explore and have people reflect on. Being a Twitch creator is a unique experience and to see now these creators express these emotions of what they’ve been through is fascinating and intriguing. The final episode of Genloss was a standout with the theme of control and how your reality can be tangled, and I enjoyed the conclusion Ranboo presented. Horror is a subjective genre and what some people find scary, isn't scary to others. I personally didn't find Genloss unnerving beyond it's surface themes, which is completely fine! I cannot critique how someone creates and engages with horror because we are two different people with different experiences. Ranboo's genre of horror falls under the "internest horror" genre much like projects like Marble Hornets or the Backrooms, which isn't inherently a bad thing. It just simply was not my thing, but I appreciate the atmosphere he created with his genre of choice.

That being said, I still have a few criticisms for the experience as a whole. Unsure on how to present my points I've decided to create some type of numbered list... for the internet!

1) One of the main points of criticism I've seen from people is the issues with pacing and the filler that made up most of episodes one and two. The show's premise is how Showfall is brainwashing people for entertainment and putting them through trials to see who moves on, but the issue is the trials aren't particularly interesting and drag on and on. That damn Mouse Trap board game will forever haunt me as the most wasteful 40 minutes I've ever experienced. If this theme of trials continues in the future I suggest shortening or cutting down the time on them--there's no shame in a shorter episode! I found the carousel trial and laser beam trial most engaging because they were short and funny (Austin was a standout!). I think the filler hindered the project and didn't let the story brethe, leading to the overall story being unpolished and underdeveloped.

2) Other than the issues with pacing and filler, what irks me most about Genloss is it's a conglomerate of different scenes and ideas from Ranboo's favorite movies which left me wondering if it was a homage or just plagiarism. References to other works in your own isn't necessarily a bad thing, but my issue comes from how Ranboo presents these ideas less as a homage and more as a "hey, you see that? I was doing 'Saw' you guys get it? 😏" It irks me to see people referencing the Truman Show in regards to Ranboo's clear reference to it in episode 3 in their theories as if everyone in the world has seen and understood this movie. The Saw references felt just as out of place, almost as if they needed a plot to fill up time and just defaulted on Jigsaw. Ranboo even admits it in his postmortem— “I got to make a Saw movie but with Twitch streamers!” Is this experience his own live horror show about what it feels like to be a content creator, or is it a Saw movie with Twitch streamers and movie references? The message begins to feel polarizing and lost as it feels more like Ranboo wanted to create something referencing all his favorite medias, and not a stand alone concept. Even as someone who greatly appreciates the Truman Show and Saw I don't think there should be required watching to understand the themes of someone else's project, this isn't school. It just feels tacky, cobbled together, and out of place.

3) My finale critique is menial, but also a big portion of the project: the cast. Now, I know what you're thinking, but this is not me advocating for a different cast or professional actors--shocker! I know. The story is meant to critique and give an original perspective to the content creator lifestyle so it makes sense to cast recognizable Twitch personalities to achieve this goal. It's just... many of these creators don't have years of writing or acting experience you would expect from a big production as such, leaving the project feeling lackluster even when it's honestly pretty impressive for what it is. I won't criticize these streamers for a lack of experience in acting--they're entertainers, not actors--but some of the acting really did take me out of the experience. The best way I can describe the acting is imagine the most annoying guy in your class. Now imagine he's doing a Morty from Rick and Morty impression. These streamers aren't trained to emote the way many actors are, which is why their sadness, fear, and confusion are indistinguishable from each other with the same whiney voice that annoys me and takes me out of the performance. I think they bit off more than they could chew with how large the cast became, meaning wires would get crossed and people weren't on the same page. Sykkuno was there for a paycheck, and Jerma was giving it his all. I think this project could've been more well rounded with a smaller, closer knit cast.

In summary, I think Genloss is about three episodes too long; I think the story could’ve been much more compact rather than split into three episodes that felt largely of filler. Ranboo mentions this is a precursor for a larger series, so I don’t see the harm in having one (or two) big stream(s) to set up the story of Showfall Media which dives into the unique feelings of a content creator. Maybe it wouldn’t have created the hype needed for future stories, but also think the long, boring episodes also have the potential to kill the momentum of the story. In the future projects I hope to see a more tightly written story with the same production and direction levels of episode three, with an equally as enthusiastic cast. I especially want to highlight how Ranboo mentioned in his postmortem that his broken mask in episode 3 didn't indicate a face reveal, but his own complicated emotions he has attached to the mask and how he feels like taking it off would "end the show." I think that's a particularly interesting outlook and I like to see him express it.

I enjoyed Genloss by the end. The first two episodes debuted with a rocky perception, but it came together at the end which is cool. I don’t think it was a mind blowing project, because at its heart it’s a passion project by a 19 yo and not Martin Scorsese (even if my dad says Ranboo will dance on his grave). It was impressive for what it aimed to be and had some good themes going for it. It may suffer from surface level flaws as a project created by someone with no experience in the film industry, but at the end of the day it was a pretty good project. He had a vision and he executed it. I hope future instalments build on the presented story to create a more cohesive theme, but for now it's nice to see it released! Though, I don't think I would recommend it to anyone. Not even my dad. And we never even got to see shark head pickle body...

[sapphic-luthor]

Answering your in tag question last week: it is indeed hotter than ass out here. Any fun summer recipes? I’m discovering that my meager little cookbook really only has nice hearty recipes that while tasty make cooking even more of a chore than I find it to be when it’s so hot out here. Hope you’re at least staying cool! -SMA

Oh man I hope you’re staying cool, I recommend a great many ice creams above all. But secondary to that, I do have some food ideas that I’ve been making a lot of recently that I’ll stick below the read more here :-)

I love a big huge enormous salad in the summer (and all year round tbh) and I think the best salads are about 50/50 made up of base greens vs. fun stuff. My personal faves are to start with a romaine or romaine/iceberg base and then add:

italian seasoned chicken breast

cherry tomatoes

little mozzarella balls

cooked orzo

sun dried tomatoes

croutons or crispy onions (ideally both)

thinly sliced red onion

dressing (personal fav is a vinaigrette made of lemon juice, balsamic, olive oil, salt & pepper, oregano, and chili flakes)

OR

soy sauce/ginger/white pepper marinated chicken

red cabbage

thinly sliced carrots

cucumber

red bell pepper

sesame seeds

scallions

fresh coriander

wonton strips (which you can airfry out of wonton wrappers in like 3 seconds)

dressing (best is a combo of sesame oil, garlic, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, honey, and ginger)

Now if you’re not mad for salads, also nice in the summer is

A crumbled sausage + broccoli pasta (i like orecchiette); it doesn’t need to have a real sauce per sé, you can just season however you like and then throw a bit of pasta water, and parmesan in at the end and it’s lovely

Caprese with nice fresh mozzarella (best gotten from the cheese counter if possible). If you ever see san marzano tomatoes buy them immediately and make them into caprese

Veg-based sandwiches, I have a special love for a vegan one that’s got homemade cucumber sriracha hummus, tomatoes and baby spinach. It doesnt sound like much but if you get the hummus right it’s very cool + has a little kick and it’s lovely with nice bread!

Homemade greek gyros— I use this recipe every time and the marinade is actually life changing. Like sometimes I lie in bed and dream about this chicken and I am not even kidding

A pork + pineapple rice bowl, which basically consists of rice topped with; minced pork cooked with soy sauce and sesame oil, long strips of carrot and courgette cooked in a pan with salt + pepper til soft, pickled shallot or red onion (just left in a water/vinegar/sugar bath for 30min or so), and pieces of pineapple right out of the tin. There’s also a light soy/rice wine vinegar/honey sauce that can be thrown over the top— i think the friend i learned the recipe from got it from one of those meal delivery services so it’s likely online (or i can track it down from her for you if you’re interested!)

Hopefully some of those are of some interest to you!! I’ll live vicariously through you and your heat but I hope you stay comfortable and safe friend

Here to add some hopefully helpful tips regarding the plant-eating here, and hopefully without offending anyone:

• if you live in North America, your day-to-day diet is very likely to have a lot of processed foods and sugar, as in, much of the food one can buy will have some form of sugar and flavour enhancers etc already added into it (not only North America of course, but I know how EASY they make it there).

• Add to that the fact that fresh produce is relatively expensive and time-consuming to make a nice dish with, I really understand how unappealing it can be to eat plants.

• nonetheless, good idea to eat plants. It's hard to get used to non-sweet flavouring, and instead savour bitterness or sourness or certain textures is a whole deal, and in my experience if your gut biome isn't accustomed to eating them, it'll take time to adjust and the adjustment might be physically uncomfortable.

• I used to hate preparing vegetables to eat because the end result would be so unappealing. Someone in the comments mentioned 'overcooked veg', someone else 'mushy'. As long we associate eating plants with this kind of disappointment then it's so hard to get into the habit.

So a few tips from my personal experience over the 20 years I've been cooking:

• if you are working hard and don't have the time or energy to cook healthy for yourself, but you CAN find healthy take away, do it. Don't beat yourself up about the expense, or your executive dys/function. How marvellous, humans have been buying their food from vendors for thousands of years, I shall keep the tradition alive. (*no, not deep fried foods)

• if you're cooking food yourself: veg generally doesn't need a lot, and boiling generally is not what it needs. I have a microwave steamer for steaming, oven for roasting, pan or airfryer for grilling or frying.

• Soup makers are an INCREDIBLE tool for I-have-no-time-but-want-something-nice (chop up veg, add water, 17 min later hey presto soup).

• if it is green: the brighter the green, the better (don't overcook the zucchini, chop brussels sprouts in half so they'll soften more quickly but retain some crunch, spinach truly only needs a few minutes)

• many cuisines have wonderful methods and recipes for preparing veggies. Mexican cooking, various Indian cuisines, Indonesian, Korean, Middle-Eastern, Eritrean, Ethiopian, Japanese, Chinese, etc.

• Italian and French too, though for IT it can be a faff to find delicious ingredients for the very simple seasonal dishes, and for FR it can be a faff full stop.

• Salt, pepper, olive oil, sesame oil, balsamico / different vinegars, pickles, soy sauce, tahini, oyster sauce, harissa, kochukaru, miso, shiokoji etc. Your veggies will taste best when combining with herbs, spices, other ingredients that have interesting flavour.

• Onion and garlic! Celery! Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme! Chives, garlic stems. And dill, and tarragon, and basil, and cilantro/coriander (unless you have the soap gene), and lemon grass, curry, nutmeg, bay leaves, and ginger, and turmeric, and galangal/ laos, and lime, and lemon-- this is just what's available locally near me, depending on what shop you go to you may be blessed with other herbs. I've taken to googling recipes based on interesting looking ingredients.

• fermented things like miso and kimchi (and kombucha and cheese) can be good for the gut and will make veggies SO good, but take notice of how your bod reacts. I personally go through periods of deep craving and then periods of NO. If it upsets the tum, consider incremental increase or hold off.

• there's much to be found online. Start wherever. Ottolenghi's recipes are fun: unexpected flavours and textures, very pretty to look at, great combinations with dairy and/or meat but many stand-alone veg recipes https://ottolenghi.co.uk/recipes

• please note there's a difference between eating a vegetarian diet and eating vegetables. Plastic is also vegan, and you can eat strictly vegetarian and still get scurvy.

• find a parent or grandparent (possibly not your own) whose cooking you like and whose shoulder you might peer over and whom you might ask questions of. I never learned more than from my ex-boyfriend's parents who, with Creole and South-Asian backgrounds, cooked any and every veg with so much knowledge and talent and good taste that it was a joy to eat with them every time.

(feel free to DM me with food questions, I don't know everything but I can help with the things I do know.)

A lot of younger people have no idea what aging actually looks and feels like, and the reasons behind it. That ignorance is so dangerous. If you don’t want to “be old,” you aren’t talking about a number of years. I have patients in their late 80s who could still handily beat me in a race—one couple still runs marathons together, in their late 80s—and I lost someone who was in her early 60s to COPD last year. What you want is not youth, it is health.

If you want to still be able to enjoy doing things in your 60s and 70s and 80s and even 90s, what you want to do, right now, is quit smoking, get some activity on a regular basis (a couple of walks a week is WAY better for you than nothing; increasing from 1 hour a day of cardio to 1.5 will buy you very little), and eat some plants. That’s it. No magic to it. No secret weird tricks. Don’t poison yourself, move around so your body doesn’t forget how, and eat plants.

If you have trouble moving around now because of mobility limitations, bad news: you still need to move around, not because it’s immoral not to, but because that’s still the best advice we have. I highly recommend looking up the Sit and Be Fit series; it is freely available and has exercises that can be done in a chair, which are suitable for people with limited mobility or poor balance. POTS sufferers, I’m looking at you.

If you have trouble eating plants because of dietary issues (they cause gas, etc.) or just because they’re bitter (super taster with texture issues here!), bad news. You still want to find a way to get some plants into your body on a regular basis. I know. It sucks. The only way I can do it is restaurants—they can make salads taste like food. I can also tolerate some bagged salads. On bad weeks, the OCD with contamination focus gets so bad I just can’t. However, canned beans always seem “safe,” and they taste a bit like candy, so they’re a good fallback.

If you smoke and you have tried quitting a million times and you’re just not ready to, bad news. You still need to quit. Your body needs you to try and keep trying. Your brain needs it, too. Damaging small blood vessels racks up cumulative damage over time that your body can start trying to reverse as soon as you quit. I know it’s insanely, absurdly addictive. You still need to.

You cannot rules lawyer your way past your body’s basic needs. It needs food, sleep, activity, and the absence of poison. Those are both small things and big asks. You cannot sustain a routine based on punishment, so don’t punish your body. Find ways to include these things that are enjoyable and rewarding instead. Experiment. There is no reason not to experiment—you don’t have to know instantly what’s going to work for you and what won’t, you just need to be willing to try things and make changes when things aren’t working for you.

You will still age. Your body will stop making collagen and elastin. Tissues you can see and tissues you can’t see will both sag. Cushioning tissues under your skin will get thinner. You’ll bruise more easily. Skin will tear more easily. Accumulated sun damage will start to show more and more. Joints will begin to show arthritis. Tendons and ligaments will get weaker and get injured more easily, as will muscles. Bones will lose mass and get easier to break. You’ll get tired more easily.

But you know what makes the difference between being dead, or as good as, in your 60s vs your 90s? Activity, plants, and quitting smoking. And don’t do meth. Saw a 58-year-old guy this week who is going to have a heart attack if he doesn’t quit whatever stimulant he’s on. I pretended to believe it was just the cigarettes, and maybe it is, but meth and cocaine will kill you quicker. Stop poisoning yourself.

Baby steps; take it one step at a time; you don’t need to have everything figured out right now. But you do need to be working on figuring things out.
