Day 25/100.

Kitchen purge continued...

My pill container and pill cutter. I actually only have one daily prescription pill, but I found that I would sometimes forget whether I had taken it or not! So the pill container eliminates doubt. But I also use it for vitamins that I want to remember to take.

Nori (dried seaweed). For making sushi rolls. My daughter loves them but I haven't made them in a long time. I should make them for her again soon.

Salt. Use this almost daily for cooking. Would be nice to have a nicer container for it one day.

Container of spices in bags. I should look through it.

Here's all what's in the container:

Bay leaves

Black pepper

Marjoram

"Italian seasoning" (marjoram, thyme, rosemary, savory, sage, oregano, sweet basil)

Chili powder

Curry powder

A packet of salt.

I put the marjoram into the bag of Italian seasoning. I refilled jars of curry and chili that I have sitting on the stove. I put what little was left in an almost empty jar of cayenne pepper into the chili powder, then filled the empty cayenne pepper jar with black pepper and re-labelled it. I emptied the packet of salt into the salt container. Here's what's left!

Yay, purge! Now I have room in that container for other bags of spices I'm sure I'll find.

Oh no. This looks intimidating.

Breathe-in, breathe-out. Just take it one item at a time.

Mrs Dash "original blend" (onion, spices [black pepper, parsley, celery seed, basil, bay, marjoram, oregano, savoury, thyme, cayenne pepper, coriander, cumin, mustard, rosemary], garlic, carrot, orange peel, tomato, lemon juice powder, citric acid, oil of lemon).

Montreal Steak Spice (salt, spices, dehydrated onion and garlic, hydrogenated vegetable oil, red pepper). Now, it doesn't specify what spices, but Montreal steak spice will generally contain: garlic, coriander/cumin, dill seed, red pepper flakes/cayenne pepper, black pepper, salt, and maybe also paprika and onion powder. So we can assume there's something like those spices in here. I can definitely smell the black pepper and cumin.

Tikka masala spice mix. Again, it doesn't specify what spices, but tikka masala could contain: coriander seed, cumin seed, black pepper, red chili, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, turmeric and/or nutmeg.

Whole red chili peppers (dried).

Himalayan pink salt

A packet of something Japanese I received as part of a gift. I know that the writing says "kobucha" but I have no idea what that is!

Oh! It's plum-kelp tea powder! Just add water, stir and enjoy!🍵

Oh, no. What are all the little bags??

Right. So we have:

More of the vitamins my kid doesn't like 😕

Onion powder

Sesame seeds

Some packets of salt & black pepper

Some chocolate crumbs

Some more chocolate crumbs

An opened packet of French onion soup mix

Ok, I'm just gonna take those damn vitamins myself 🙄 I've put them with my other supplements. I emptied the packets of salt & pepper into the steak spice mix. The chocolate crumbs and opened soup mix are in the garbage. The onion powder and sesame seeds fit into the container of bagged spices that I just finished purging. Progress!

Next layer of strata:

Chestnuts. Enjoy by March 12, 2020 😕

More curry powder

Thyme leaves

More thyme leaves

Garlic, onion and red pepper mix

Chocolate I was hiding from my kids! 😄

Chestnuts are in the garbage. I filled the jar of curry powder on the stove-top right to the top. Still some left in the bag. One bag of thyme leaves I added to the "Italian spice"/Mrs Dash "original blend" mix. The garlic, onion and red pepper mix has unspecified spices in them, but it smelled like Mrs Dash, so I added it to that mix as well. Consolidate all these dribs and drabs of spices. It smells like what you might put on chicken or fish. So I'm going to call it my "fish and poultry seasoning".

The chocolate I will put where I can find it so it doesn't get lost again!

The final layer:

Garam masala

Cardamom

Celery salt (I' be been looking for this!!! I knew I bought some!)

An empty jar for cream of tartar

Blue sugar? 🤔

Some ziplock bags and a party-favour bag

Blue sugar is in the garbage and the container is in the dishwasher. Party-favour bag is in the recycling bin. I realized that the plastic bags are for mixing together spices and/or breadcrumbs!

Wow, so much space in the basket now!

See? Sometimes when something looks like an overwhelming mess, you just need to break it down into smaller, less overwhelming parts. Approach it one thing at a time.

Plum Puddin isn't the most social of berries but the one they keep in contact with is their long distance partner T.N. Honey who stays in touch through frequent letters.

Original vs redo

Also, I will try redoing it again once the new computer arrives, I wanna try drawing more expressions and poses for watermelon cookie.

Also yes; tarte tatin, crunchy chip cookie, wildberry cookie, and tea knight cookie also get captured by Shadow Milk Cookie.

And watermelon cookie gets knocked out for a bit.

Okay, I can’t find the ask that requests this pairing, but I know I got a request for it somewhere, so I’m just posting it normally

Anyways, so this was the first oc x canon requested, by @amythecat2001, and this is Purple Plum Cookie

The oc also belongs to @amythecat2001, and her name is Rose Tea Cookie

Okay, so with her name, full disclosure I think I forgot the “Tea” part of Rose Tea when I came up with her name (as well as the “Juice” in “Prune Juice”), because I was like “okay, what’s in between prunes and flowers?” and I learned that prunes are basically just dried plums, so I decided to base her off of those. But I really liked how the plums looked, so I just stuck with it

European plums (since I think those are the specific kind):

So I’m gonna go ahead and say that she’s the previously mentioned fankid who doesn’t really look like her parents but I liked the design of

She looked like a fantasy magic user that I really want to see in a video game

Like I didn’t intend for her hair to be entirely curly, it was just supposed to be some of her hair like Rose Tea, but I liked how it looked, so I kept it. Though some of her hair got obscured by her staff. I also gave her those pink parts at the top to reference the red spots on the plums

Speaking of the spots, I gave her a bunch of plums in her staff and brooch because that’s what she is. Though originally the plums were darker and the spots lighter, until I looked at the references again and realized that it was the other way around, so I changed that

I realized when I was doing the feet, I realized neither Prune Juice or Rose Tea have visible feet, but I decided to keep her with boots anyways. I gave her long boots because why not

If I’m being honest, I feel like her dough is too light, but both characters have light dough tones, so not much I can do. But I did give her blush because I thought it looked good

Oh also, I was considering giving her a bottom hair gradient, but I thought it made the hair design too much, so I didn’t do that

And also the colored sketch was the original draft of her I did before I did her design

I’m sorry, my brain’s not entirely working when it comes to explaining the design. Just know that I like it a lot, even if I admit she probably doesn’t look enough like her parents. Let’s get on to her character

So she’s a wizard that graduated from Parfaedia. Her magic is plant/juice based, which is what those circles you see on the staff are. But she also makes and uses potions, which she learned from her father

She’s a bit absent minded and directionally challenged, she will have points where she’s just like “wait…where am I?” or “what am I doing?” because she forgot. She usually means well, she just doesn’t always know what she’s doing

But don’t let that fool you, she’s very intelligent and has a lot of ingenuity. She uses potions alongside her magic so she could cover her bases if her magic’s depleted, or she needs something specific

I was listening to Licorice’s Cookie Trial theme, so I just imagine her wandering through a dark forest. I dunno, I just needed something to say

To be honest I feel like if I knew more about Rose Tea, it might help me get a better idea of character for Purple Plum, but ah well

So yeah I think that’s about it. Hope you enjoy

THE PLUMS GROWING ON MY TREE THIS YEAR >>>>>>

Would a basic Irish Breakfast kemono tea just be the basic effects? I cannot think of a single Irish animal off the top of my head and "breakfast" doesn't really evoke any animals either
