#spring onion and strawberry jam

[dreamlanddeluxe]

Hello world How do we feel about them

[riding-the-sunset-bird]

If you're still taking ideas, there's one thing that's been bothering me...

What makes Cove pick the produce he gets you when you meet up again in Errands?

Not the drink he gets you at the end - that's from a step 2 choice - but there's 3 items he buys for you before you go to the first produce stand together

Is it random? Does something lead to that? Mainly I just wanna know why he gave me lemons exactly once and never again in any playthrough hdjsjs

You don't have to look to hard into this one if you don't want, but thank you greatly if you do. I hope you have a good day either way :D

No problem! This one I actually had looked up myself a while back so I already knew, haha. I'll also explain the drink Cove gifts the MC for those who didn't know, even though you did.

For those curious, yes, the anon is technically correct that the drink Cove gives the MC at the end of Errands is based on Step 2; specifically, it's based on the drink you request at the restaurant with Kyra and Cove. It goes like this:

Water with lemon → "small batch lemonade"

Plain water → "cool spring water"

Soda → soda of whichever flavor the MC chose ("cola soda" / "orange soda" / "grape soda" / "lemon lime soda" / "root beer soda" / "ginger ale soda")

Milk → a creamy drink based on what type the MC chose ("chocolate cream drink" / "strawberry cream drink" / "soy cream drink") except for regular milk which will turn into a "vanilla cream drink"

Juice → juice of the flavor the MC chose ("orange juice" / "apple juice") though lemonade will yield the same result as water with lemon, so it'll be the "small batch lemonade"

Coffee → will become a "coffee drink in a glass bottle" regardless of how the MC took their coffee

However, if the MC was not vegan back in Step 2 and chose milk at the restaurant, then became vegan during Step 3, they will get a "vegan cream drink" (not a specific flavor, just "vegan cream drink") from Cove.

To answer the anon's question though, what determines Cove's choice of produce when he meets up with the MC and if he picks up anything for the MC at all is based on Barbecue from Step 1 and Growing from Step 2, both of which had to have been played. Without them, Cove will simply get things for himself: onions, lemons, and sweet potatoes in that order.

If Barbecue and Growing have been played and the MC is at Fond, Crush, or Love with Cove, then:

the onions will change to any of the below if the MC made a savory sandwich in Growing and added them to it

tomatoes

red onions

cucumbers

avocados

peppers

the lemons will change to any of the below if the MC made a sweet sandwich in Growing instead and added them to it (yes, this means that either the onions or lemons Cove gets normally will not change since the MC can't make both types of sandwiches)

strawberries (regardless of whether it was strawberry jam or regular strawberries that were added)

grapes (if grape jelly)

oranges (if orange marmalade)

bananas

mangos

apples

the sweet potatoes will change to either of the below if the MC chose them for their kebab during Barbecue

zucchini

potatoes

Aaaand whichever the MC chose last during any of these will take priority, so if they chose mango slices after banana slices for their sweet sandwich, then Cove will have gotten them mangos.

[theoppositeofprofound]

Assigning First Age humans favorite foods for reasons

Bëor/Balan: Holds a traveller’s fondness and fear towards the humble mushroom; he counts himself lucky that Nargothrond is so vigorous in fungiculture.

Haleth: Though she’s eaten orc (before the elves got all hysterical about it) she doesn’t like it. As an older woman she gets a taste for dried hawthorn and very piquant rowan wine.

Marach: Grains are a new indulgence, he was never much of a farmer while on the march. In Estolad he finds a love of barley cakes.

Adanel: Raises ducks for gizzards

Imlach: Turnips in mountain goat butter. Like elves, he’s not “lactose tolerant” but cold climate girls make do.

Andreth: Innovated heavily in the field of Jellies, combining old advice from her teachers and elf lore to finalize the perfect crabapple jam.

Bregor: Lake trout with bitter orange.

Beril: Trained truffle hounds and valued her prizes highly.

Emeldir: Roast pig, fattened and butchered in autumn. As the main coordinator, she takes pride in the finished product and lets herself have a bit of crackling when it’s done.

Barahir: Is impressively lactose tolerant and enjoys an early, soft cheese, baked till its gooey.

Beren: In the dark woods, birds without a brood that year would spit crop milk into his mouth. It isn’t the taste he misses but the sense someone was one his side. Also hot drinks—after years being hunted it’s nice to have the security to build a fire.

Húrin: Lamb with a a certain blend of spices, the recipe reportedly over the mountains by his ancestors. No one uses cumin like Hador’s people.

Huor: The elves of Gondolin kept snail—he’s never been able to recapture the crisp, woody taste of their eggs.

Morwen: Dove, roasted, maybe a little more raw than is advisable but she trusts her butchery.

Rian: Nectar from the woodbine that blooms late in spring

Ulfang: Fresh wild-strawberries; his sons would bring him handfuls of them when they were small.

Bór: He likes a fermented milk, somewhere between kumis and filmjölk, but he’ll also drink milk raw just to flex on Maedhros’ kin.

Aerin: Even before she was tasked with feeding great numbers in the shadow of famine, she had a fondness for the humble onion.

Tuor: Bumblebee honey, dug out of the ground right at the coming of winter, when the bees are dying and don’t need it anymore.

Túrin: A pine nut/bear fat/mandrake pemmican Beleg taught him. None of his friends handle the alkaloid content as well as he does. He likes raw potatoes too.

Nienor: Used to catch the snakes that came to prey on her mother’s birds and make them into soup. As Níniel she eats crabapples before they can be jellied.

Dior: Little minnows found in the cold streams of Doriath and around the island of his birth. Also, eel.

Brandir: Roast chestnuts—he uses his cane to crack them open to the delight of children.

Eärendil: Enjoys shark as a child, before Morgoth’s seeping rot builds up dangerously in local bioaccumulators. Likes fennel in Sirion and the sea buckthorn that grows near his lady’s tower across the waves.

Elros: Seafood is a steady source of protein for an establishing society. Once they have the stores to use their sheep for meat as well as wool though? He’s your king for mutton in almond milk.

Following several hospitalizations linked to the most recent serving of Frankie’s Famous Fish last month, all waivers have been destroyed and future shipments of “fish” scratched from the order. Anyone who sees or smells “fish” should report this to Site Security. Site Administration would like to stress and remind personnel not to try Frankie’s Famous Fish at the cafeteria; do not believe the rumors the dish gives you powers if you survive. If anyone has seen Frankie, inform him that the HR Department and Director Osterholz desires a meeting. Immediately.

The Walking Club, a group of highly-intelligent pack of dogs, is looking for new members! remember — DON’T WALK ALONE. That is a formal directive, not a request. Joining the Walking Club is especially critical given the WEATHER WARNING soon to be in effect; any personnel who need to move between site buildings while the WARNING is active must contact the Walking Club. The correct way to contact the Walking Club is to step through the nearest door, close it behind you,* and whistle as loud as possible. If you are not a good whistler, that is okay! There is no such thing as a bad whistle if you put your heart into it! The Walking Club will still hear you and arrive shortly. *If Newt has chosen you as his walking buddy, you are advised to brace yourself against the door before whistling, to prevent injury.

by DIRECTOR B. Osterholz

Good evening. It has been brought to my attention that our new additions here at Site-φ may be in need of a reminder as to the appropriateness of fraternization among personnel at this highly clandestine installation. To reiterate what was stated during onboarding and in the welcome brochure: “making eyes,” “canoodling,” and/or “partaking in the horizontal tango” with fellow staff members is not allowed at Site-φ. As you all know, the nature of our work demands absolute dedication and focus. Surely any rumors of anyone engaging in such acts on-site are, indeed, no more than crass rumors to razz the newcomers.

In My San Diego Garden and Kitchen

Strawberry guava jam moved up on the list last week because I needed to make room in the chest freezer for more frozen apricot products and applesauce. The strawberry guava puree was processed last October, awaiting a day to make jam. Some of the remaining pints of puree were added to rhubarb and applesauce this week, adding color and bright flavor.

My grandmother had a small strawberry guava tree in her yard in Laguna Beach. She made a delicate strawberry guava jelly but I prefer the richness and color of the jam. My recipe came from a family who moved to San Diego from Wisconsin in 1888. They had planned to grow lemons but trees were not available so they had a strawberry guava ranch.

Read more about strawberry guavas in Strawberry Guava Redux, Part 1 or use the search feature on my blog for other ramblings about strawberry guavas and their uses.

We’re still picking (or picking up drops) from the Blenheim apricot tree—usually several pounds a day. This week I made two quarts of apricot puree to freeze for ice cream later in the summer or even mid-winter.

Then there was the first apricot-almond cobbler of the season.

Few of the marionberries make it to the kitchen. My husband and I cruise the twenty foot stretch of canes eating the ripe ones as we go. Warmed by the sun, they are at their best. The botrytis fungus has yet to affect them as it has for the past five cool summers. Our solar data shows a sunnier June which may be the answer.

I used the last of our Yukon Gem potatoes along with a spring onion and dill from the garden for a simple potato salad. I dressed it with lime juice I had frozen earlier and EVOO.

I have a five foot high dill forest in the garden. Swallowtail butterflies lay their eggs there and I’m careful to relocate tiny caterpillars when I harvest. The hover flies love the flower heads.

I’ve yet to saturate the neighborhood with zucchini but I may be getting close. I ask first, then drop off.

The lavender is blooming now and I have lime juice in the freezer. Lavender limeade to refresh me this week as I process fruit.

I’m enchanted with the Apricotta cosmos grown from Botanical Interest seed. It blends well with a nearby alstroemeria. Here they appear more pink and less “apricot.” in color. They’re a modest 24-30 inches tall so they don’t overtake the garden. I’ll plant them again next year. Maybe they’ll just show up.

Check the What I’m Planting Now page as I plant the summer garden. Then head today to Harvest Monday, hosted by Dave at Happy Acres blog and see what garden bloggers around the world harvested last week.

Illa!

A few facts about her:

She likes weird taste combinations, so she often will brush her teeth and immediately drink orange juice, and you can picture her eating a disgusting strawberry jam and onion sandwich. She thinks they taste funky in her mouth

Illa is intersex, she identifies purely as "Illa is Illa and that's all", but goes by "she"

Illa can blossom, flowers cover her hair in spring

She is an albino willow, the only color she has going on are her lilac eyes

Her hair is extremely straight, but she can control it like tendrils/tentacles, therefore she always has a messy hairdo because her hair floats and moves around

She is a willow tree hybrid, therefore she can communicate with other plants

She cannot sleep like regular creatures, she enters a dream like state instead while maintaining consciousness

She lisps a lot, and she is not very good with english. Russian is her first language

A Year in Review: Kitchen Witch Version

My year started out strong with me sharing and creating in the kitchen and then petered out some during the late Summer/Fall as I was struggling to adjust to the new medication that I have been on. This is interesting because my partner has been in school all Fall so I cooked a lot more than normal (we normally share 50/50 of the cooking and I was doing most of it); I just didn't share it.

I made some really good eatings this year.

Early in the year, my partner and I made some Fire Cider which we turned into some incredibly yummy Fire Cider Bloody Marys. I also had a great time celebrating Fat Tuesday with some friends and I finally perfected making a Hurricane by using Fassionola, a very traditional tiki syrup that has gone out of fashion.

I also tried my hand at making Duck L'orange though I didn't get good photos of that (I think that my friends and I may plan an orange-themed dinner sometime soon, so we'll see if we get it written up for next year). We also continued our experiments with Eastern White Pine flavored vodka.

Spring arrived fast as it always seems to and I got back to my flower experiments. It turns out the Forsythia jelly is to die for and I continued my Violet Experiments - this time with Violet jelly as well as the violet simple syrup that I make every year which we turned into the most amazing Violet Birds of Paradise cocktails while we were on vacation at the beach. I also tried my hand at more cooking with flowers. For May Day, we made dandelion gnocchi as well as a fresh cheese ball made from chevre and tulips. I also made a spectacular Chive Vinegar from the first chive harvest from my garden.

Summer starts with the first pickups of our CSA farm share and my household becomes overflowing with fresh produce. I used the early cilantro and garlic scapes to make a lovely Cilantro Pesto and then got into canning and preserving for the season. For Midsummer, I made a lovely Strawberry Jam with a bonus Black Pepper Cocktail and I tried my hand at making canned Blueberry Pie Filling. I also tried my hand at canning sour cherry jam and making fresh cherry syrup. The end of the summer saw us canning all of the tomatoes and experimenting with more fun cocktails.

As mentioned above, I've done a lot of cooking this Autumn, I just never got around to recording/sharing most of it. I've been experimenting with apples (always) and I have been working on my soup skills (also, always). My favorite meal of the season was the French Onion Soup that I made with the Aus Jus from some braised Short ribs. I also made orange bitters which I did record, so stay tuned for more on that soon!

All in all, it was a lovely year in the kitchen. Did I get everything done that I wanted to? Absolutely not. I always have so many plans and then they inevitably get away from me. There is only so much time to play around in the kitchen (unfortunately!) As we head into the new year, I am contemplating kitchen witch goals for 2023. It is time to make more Eastern White Pine Vodka and Fire Cider, for sure - we ran out of both last weekend. I really want to make it back to the Cape to pick both Rosa Rugosa hips and Beach Plums so that I can finally find out what the differences between them both really are. I'd also like to make jelly with all of the spring flowers - last year I missed lilac, so that is high on my list for next year. Additionally, after a very poor gardening year (we were in a stage 4 drought), I'm more hopeful about my goals of expanding my tea garden in the year ahead.

20 Anti-Inflammatory Dinners to Make This April

20 Anti-Inflammatory Dinners to Make This April. A well-balanced diet full of nutrient-dense foods like fruits, vegetables, fish, nuts, and spices is the best way to lower inflammation. Inflammation can lead to heart disease, type 2 diabetes and certain cancers. Inflammation can also be a major source of chronic pain, digestive problems and weight gain, so it’s important to reduce it by following an anti-inflammatory diet. These 20 dinners will help you keep it under control and support your immune system, too! - Edamame & Chickpea Salad Deliciously nutritious, this salad is loaded with edamame, chickpeas, carrots and bell peppers. It’s tossed in a herb and garlic vinaigrette with tart dried cranberries to balance the flavour. This is a healthy snack, dip or appetizer that can be enjoyed by itself or served on top of mixed greens for a hearty meal. It’s easy to make ahead and store in the fridge, too! This recipe calls for edamame (pronounced ehduhmaa*may), which are immature soybeans that can be found in the frozen section at your supermarket. They’re a great source of protein and fiber. - Ginger-Spiced Chickpeas This spicy chickpea stew is so easy to make and makes a wonderful, hearty dinner. It’s a great one-pot meal that you can have on the table in 30 minutes tops! In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium-high. Add onion, garlic and ginger. Stir until onions are tender and begin to brown. When the onions are translucent, add the tomatoes. Simmer on low for 10 minutes, until the sauce has thickened slightly. Serve with rice, naan or even with a dollop of yoghurt on the side. It’s a perfect vegan comfort food. This spiced chickpea recipe is the perfect addition to a shawarma bowl, or it’s also an excellent snack. It’s a quick and easy dish to prepare, and it can be made ahead of time so you can grab it on the go. - Salmon with Berries Wild Alaskan salmon encased in plate licking worthy sauce topped with a sweet, refreshing salsa of blueberries, pineapple and red bell peppers is the perfect combination for this springtime anti-inflammatory dinner. It's easy to make, and will leave you with no regrets! A glistening, jewel-like array of fruits that resemble raspberries and blackberries, salmonberries appear on shrubs throughout the Pacific Northwest and parts of Alaska and Canada. They're the first berries of spring and are delicious straight from the plant, or when they're harvested and processed into jams, jellies and wine. Often found in the wild, salmonberries aren't available year round so they're best enjoyed during their early ripening period. They're juicy, fragrant and highly perishable. - Sweet Potato & Kidney Bean Stew Sweet potatoes are the perfect side for a hearty stew, especially one packed with kidney beans. Served with dollops of yoghurt (veggie or vegan) as a cooling contrast and hot mint oil for a delicious drizzle, this is a comforting dish to make on a cold day. A delicious slow cooker meal, this Sweet Potato & Kidney Bean Stew is super simple to make. It's also full of flavour and nutritious - it meets all your vitamin A and K needs! Add all the ingredients to a 5 quart electric slow cooker and cook on low 8 hours. Mash a few of the sweet potatoes to thicken up the stew. - Strawberry & Tomato Salad Using peak-season strawberries and tomatoes is a great way to pack a ton of nutrients into a single dish. Fresh fruits and vegetables in season are ripe when they’re at their peak, so they’re higher in certain antioxidants that fight inflammation. This sweet, fruity salad pairs well with grilled meats like veggie burgers or BBQ jackfruit sandwiches for a light, anti-inflammatory meal. Add a simple balsamic reduction and olive oil to complete the flavor profile, and you have one delicious summer dinner! This is a very easy recipe and can be made in advance. Just be sure to add the vinegar dressing right before serving so it doesn’t get mushy. Read the full article

Episode 3: Meal Planning

My shelves are almost completely empty. Zorgtoeslag deposit is here, which I will use to assemble stock for the long-run (that is the exact opposite of going all out for one special meal). The budget is €155,- (gosh, inflation…). The planning here must ensure I don’t end up throwing things out because I haven’t assigned the ingredient to a dish, and also dishes reaching their maximum contextual tastiness because the plan makes a full circle.

Susceptibility to the algorithms I don’t know but I haven’t eaten Indonesian food in years, and base ingredients are very sustainable, so that is a must. Naughty galia melon taste is a must. The nonchalance of eating kapsalon is a must. The vulgar taste of the combination of cream, meat and cheese on a buttery wrap is a must. Fuet for mitigating Vladi’s levels of testosterone is a must. Some sugary drinks and candies because the overall taste in my mouth must stay on the sweet side otherwise I am more likely to be salty. 🥹 That is the atmosphere from which my selection of ingredients is derived. How much inflation will be a shocker I do not know yet.
