Charlie & Vaggie: It was a normal night for you and your lovely girlfriends. Charlie wanted to cook with you both so you and Vaggie agreed to do just that. You all agreed to make chicken parm with pasta, and broccoli. Which was good because Vaggie took care of the chicken, Charlie had the broccoli, and you handled the pasta. You, guys, listened to music while cooking and having fun. Once dinner was done. Charlie suggested watching her favorite movie and you both sighed happily and agreed. You all sat on the couch, eating and watching the movie. You told your girlfriend Vaggie how you loved how she prepared the chicken. And she complimented you on the pasta. “ Was the broccoli good? “ Charlie asked you both. You and Vaggie kissed her cheek and nodded. “ Of course, it was good hon. “ Vaggie said to Charlie. Which the demon princess squealed in delight. After dinner. You, guys cleaned up the kitchen and washed the dishes. You had blats cooking dinner with your girlfriends. That you didn’t want to end. So you and Charlie both convinced your, guy's girlfriend Vaggie to bake a cake with you, she sighed and shook her head with a smile. “ Fine, but I’m picking the flavor. “ She said and followed you both into the kitchen.

Alastor: When Alastor suggested cooking together for a date night. You happily agreed and Alastor grabbed his recipe book. “ Let’s make this my dear. “ Alastor said pointing to the recipe that said Shrimp Scampi With Sun-Dried Tomatoes. You nodded and Alastor guided you through the cooking progress. He let you taste some of the shrimp. While he told you about the things he used to cook with his mom. The two of you dance while the food cook and Alastor would dip you while kissing you all over your neck. He loved hearing you giggle. When dinner was done. You and Alastor sat down drinking and eating. You listened to Alastor’s jokes and stories. You loved hearing your demonic little strawberry ramble. After dinner, you and Alastor did the dishes. You knew dessert was off the table since Alastor wasn’t a big fan of sweet things. Alastor came over and kissed you. “ I may not like sweets but I like you. “ Alastor said and gave you another kiss. You smiled and held his hand as you two stood in the kitchen admiring each other.

Sir Pentious: This clingy noodle boy has been begging to cook with you because he wanted to learn how to cook. Whenever Pentious cook it usually leads to smoke, fire, or a large boom sound. Sometimes all three, so when you finally had a day off. You agreed to help your boyfriend learn how to cook. He was excited and gave you many kisses, hugs, and sweet words. You let him pick the recipe and he chooses Beef Bourguignon. You guided him through the recipe and showed him how to do things in an easy, right, and patient way. Pentious was surprised at what he learned. Though you did have to bandage his hand because he wasn’t careful with the knife. Once the food was finished, Pentious was filled with joy and took pictures. “ Voxtagram will love this! “ Pentious took some pictures of you holding the food. After uploading the pictures. He sat down and started eating with you, giving you lovey-dovey eyes. “ Thank you for teaching me how to cook (Y/N) my love. “ Pentious said. After that, Pentious wanted to make a cake with you, which didn’t go well like dinner because he added too much sugar, oh Pentious.

Husk: Husk had been stressed from working at the hotel. So he took some days off, he was playing cards right now in your, guys living room. You had been staring at him and he could tell you wanted something. He chuckled and set the cards down. “ What’s up doll? “ Husk asked while staring at you. You told him that you wanted to cook dinner tonight but you wanted him to join you. Husk chuckled and stood up. “ Sure, better than sitting here and playing cards by myself. “ He stood up and followed you into the kitchen. You said that you wanted to make a Sea Bass a la Michele. Which made Husk’s stomach growl and you took that as a yes. And you both started cooking. Husk would talk about his days at the Hotel, cards tricks, and rant about how people should appreciate magic more. Which made you giggle, you knew how much your boyfriend loved magic. After finishing dinner, you and Husk ate while you played cards. Of course, Husk won and gloated but he gave you a kiss. “ Dinner and games with you are always fun. “ Husk said. You knew he was just trying to butter you up, but you gave him a kiss back and the two of you went to go clean up.

Angel Dust: You were sitting on you and Angel’s bed while drawing. Angel stepped into the room and walked over. He poked your cheek and you looked up at him. He had a grin on his face and placed his hands on your sketchbook. “ Hey babe, please come cook dinner with me and fat nugget. “ He said while pouting. You smiled at him and nodded. Angel grinned with excitement and picked you up running to the kitchen as you laughed. Watching Fat Nugget follow you. Angel suggested a lobster dinner, you raised an eyebrow and asked him where he got a lobster. “ I found it. “ He said with the biggest smug, you have ever seen. You knew what he meant when he would say he found something. You sighed and smiled. And assisted Angel with his lobster dinner. Which turned out great and paired with a nice wine. After dinner, you and Angel lay in bed with Fat Nugget. Angel gave you a kiss. “ Next time I’ll find us a chicken. “ He said while laughing and holding you close.

Disgrace to the Name of Coffee

Rita Calhoun x reader Warnings: language, that's it I think? Some teasing/banter but that's to be expected lbh. Covers the "pumpkin flavoured" square for @adarafaelbarba 's bingo!

Fall was, without a doubt, your favourite time of year. It was due to a number of things; cooler weather, crunchy leaves, kids were back in school not running wild through the city. You caught the tail end of barbeque season, thunderstorms, autumn festivals, Halloween, the lead up to Thanksgiving. It was the beginning of major holiday season which meant lots of seeing old friends, family, and delicious food. But you couldn’t lie, the main part was the food. And one kind in particular.

September first brought with it: pumpkin spice season.

And truthfully, that was your favourite thing about fall.

There wasn’t time before work to pick up your beloved pumpkin spice latte so that meant you stopped by Starbucks on your way home, sipping at the glorious beverage while you perused the aisles of Whole Foods. All of the fall features were out, promotions everywhere for spiced apple cider, fresh pumpkin pies, mulled wine, and more flavoured baked goods than you could have ever imagined. Naturally, you picked up a little bit of everything, along with a couple of pre-made easy to reheat dinners for the next couple of days. You’d need food for both you and Rita considering the plan was to stay at your place for the weekend, she wasn’t about to cook, and you really didn’t want to bother after the long week, so this was just the better idea.

Originally the plan was go to dinner tonight, Thursday, and spend the night together going into the weekend, but Rita got the memo too late about a work function she’d practically forgotten about. So she promised you she would order you some takeout for dinner and would get to your place in time for a glass of wine and a night of cuddles.

As promised, right at six thirty there was a knock on your door from a delivery driver, a bag of bruschetta, shrimp scampi and tiramisu in hand for you. You weren’t sure exactly where it was from, but it was absolutely delicious and right up Rita’s alley for quality food. You putzed around the apartment for a bit, cleaning up before having a quick shower and changing into pyjamas to curl up on the couch. Rita finally got there around nine, apologizing for the late hour as she greeted you with a tender kiss and you waved her off, thanking her for dinner. She instantly curled up on the couch with you and a glass of wine while you fed each other bites of tiramisu before heading to the bedroom for a good night’s rest.

The morning was when everything got a little hectic, though regular alarms had been set, Rita was in the shower when her phone started ringing. You let it go to voicemail, finishing up your hair and make up before getting dressed, and then it rang again. The sound of the water from the bathroom had just stopped and you heard Rita’s voice calling out for you to answer it so you did. A moment later you popped your head into the bathroom, letting her know a client was at the twenty first precinct waiting for her and according to the cop you’d talked to, they weren’t exactly being patient. She let out a grumble as she rolled her eyes, now more thankful than ever that she hadn’t bothered to wash her hair. You stepped into the bathroom, pressing a gentle kiss to her cheek, squeezing at her hand to calm her down,

“I’ll get some breakfast ready that you can take with you.”

“And coffee!” She called after you and you let out a little laugh at the desperation in her voice, her caffeine addiction was her whole personality some days.

You grabbed a couple of the prepped breakfast sandwiches from the freezer and tossed them into the air fryer before filling the coffee pot and turning it on to brew. You didn’t have anything put together for lunch, but you figured Rita would end up ordering take out anyways. You scrolled through your phone waiting for both things to be done, checking a couple of emails, thankful you still had a couple of hours until you had to head into work. Less than five minutes later, Rita came down the hallway, heels in hand that she placed by the door before moving through the kitchen. You hadn’t even heard the coffee machine beep, too distracted in your own little world and truly just not awake enough yet. She paused to wrap an arm around you, pressing a kiss to the top of your head before crossing the room to the counter. Pulling down one of your to go coffee mugs she swiftly poured coffee into it and looked up to you as she pulled open the fridge.

“I don’t have much to do today after this client, I’ll probably be able to get out early if you’re interested?”

“I’m always interested in more time with you.” You replied with a smile, not noticing the creamer she’d grabbed from the fridge door, dumping a hefty amount into her coffee before twirling the lid on. “We could hit a couple of happy hours before the show?”

“That sounds perfect.” She smiled, “I’ll give you a text once I’m done.” She lifted the mug to her lips, ready for the best part of her morning and instead nearly gagged, spitting the drink out into the sink as she coughed, “is you creamer rotten? What the fuck?”

“No.” Your brow furrowed, “I just bought it last night.” Then your eyes widened, “which bottle did you use?”

“I don’t know, I wasn’t looking. The one from the usual spot.”

“I ran out of the hazelnut yesterday. I replaced it with a pumpkin one.”

“Oh god you’re one of them.” She groaned and you laughed.

“What?”

“Pumpkin spice lovers. It’s a disgrace to coffee! Mine of which, is now ruined, thank you.”

“Calm down drama queen.” You teased, standing from your stool as the air fryer beeped. You swiped the coffee mug from her, opening it and pouring it into another mug before giving it a thorough rinse and refilling it. “I haven’t had my coffee yet. There’s a carton of plain almond milk on the shelf.” You handed it back to her and pointed toward the fridge before you turned to the air fryer.

“Thank you.”

You pulled out the sandwiches, tossing one onto a plate and the other into a Ziploc bag, tucking it into Rita’s purse. She screwed the lid back onto her fresh, properly made, coffee and took a sip, this time letting out a sigh of relief. Her eyes swept over the counter, searching through the bowl of fruit and packages of pastries beside it.

“Those look good.” She muttered, her hand reaching out to the scones.

“Ah!” You cut in, swatting at her hand and she turned to you with a slightly offended look on her face.

“What? You saving them for something?”

“They’re pumpkin.”

“What about those muffins?”

“Also pumpkin.” You let out an awkward laugh, “they were on sale!”

“You’re a degenerate, you know that?”

“Everything must be pumpkin flavoured! It’s a rule of the season!” You practically scolded and she laughed, rolling her eyes, “and I’ll be sure to pick up hazelnut creamer for you on my way home today.”

“Thank you.” She smiled, leaning in to kiss you softly.

“Breakfast is in your purse, and it is one hundred percent pumpkin free.”

“If it wasn’t I’d have to break up with you at this point.” She teased and you let out a mock offended scoff.

“And to think, I was going to spend all weekend doting on you!”

“Yeah, with pumpkin flavoured everything!”

“Don’t you have a client waiting?” You raised a brow, a fake pout taking over your lips and she chuckled, shaking her head at the ridiculousness of it all.

“I guess I should get going. Thank you.” She gestured towards the sandwich as she picked up her purse, an arm wrapping around you to pull you in for a kiss, this one a moment longer than the last, though she pulled away with a grimace on her face, “now you taste like pumpkin.”

“Yeah, well, you’re just gonna have to deal with it until December.” You teased back and she laughed.

“And then what? Is it peppermint season?”

“Caramel brulee thank you, very much.”

“While that one is still sickeningly sweet and a disgrace to the name of coffee, I can at least get behind it.”

“Oh! She can actually make a compromise, I’m shocked.”

“You’re lucky I love you.” She deadpanned, pecking your cheek this time to avoid anymore unwanted pumpkin flavouring, “I’ll see you soon.”

“I love you too.” You replied with a grin, watching as she stepped into her heels and disappeared through the front door.

You couldn’t help but let out a laugh at the entire thing, having been completely unaware of your girlfriends complete distaste of pumpkin flavoured things. Though, with her affection of coffee you probably should have seen it coming. You simply shrugged, laughing to yourself as you opened the pack of pumpkin scones and added one to the plate with your breakfast sandwich and made your way to the couch.

If Rita didn’t want anything pumpkin, that just meant more for you, and you were more than okay with that.

Henlo Mrs. Ackermannnn ❤️

I'm here for your valentines event :3

My beloved husband Erwin taking me out to the quaint restaurant where we had our first date!

Work your magic, please ✨

Henlo Mrs Smith my beloved sister-in-law <;333 and here is your outfit (Pinterest link) for your date with your giant husband hehe. It might be a little similar to this, but I promise you it's different <3

Rei's Ask Games: Valentine's Day Special

"Mia, sweetheart," Erwin's voice chimed through the house, "are you done? We have to lea—" he stopped in his tracks and stared at you from the bedroom door.

"Wow. You look stunning, sweetheart." Erwin smiled seeing you. You were dressed in a lovely light blue dress which accentuated all your curves, your makeup was simple and flaunted your beautiful features. You beamed at your husband, picking up your lip gloss.

"I'll be done soon. Are the kids ready to leave?"

"Mm-hmm," Erwin nodded, "Levi and Rei will be here in a minute to pick them up." Putting your lip gloss, you took your handbag and wore your heels before leaving with your husband and children. Meeting the couple downstairs, the both of you thanked them for doing you this favour. Levi shrugged as he sat Aria in the baby seat in his car.

"Tch. Don't mention it. Enjoy yourselves." Waving you two goodbye, Levi drove off and Erwin ushered you into his car.

"So, where are we going on this lovely evening?" You chuckled as Erwin helped you buckle up.

"You'll find out soon." Driving out of the apartment's parking lot, Erwin drove into the sunset while the radio played in the background. Soon, Erwin parked his car and you felt yourself break into a smile. Erwin brought you to the restaurant where you two had your very first date years back. Erwin had his hand on the small of your back as you approached the waiter. Once he checked Erwin's name off the reservations list, he ushered you both inside.

The restaurant was just as you remembered: the warm orange lights hanging from the ceiling, the distinct red and white table cloth, the vases of plastic flowers on each table, the smell of freshly baked bread coming from the kitchen, and the country music playing in the background. And just like what you remembered, the restaurant was extremely crowded.

You were ushered to a table and as you took your seat, you looked up and saw a painting of a bowl of fruit. Something struck a chord in your memory.

"Sweetheart? Were we seating here back then?" You asked Erwin as he looked through the menu. The faint smile on his face gave you the answer.

"They haven't changed their menu." Erwin commented as he flipped through the pages, already knowing what to order, "it's been so many years."

"You don't need to change anything if it's good." You smiled and looked at the menu as well. A waitress promptly attended to your table and Erwin ordered a side of mozzarella sticks, meatballs, Greek salad, shrimp scampi over linguine for you, and a chicken piccata over spaghetti for himself. Erwin also ordered a slice of tiramisu to be fired later. As Erwin passed the menu to the waitress, you laughed.

"You ordered the same thing we did that time." You smiled fondly at the memory.

As the food was served, Erwin and you had a perfect evening together. The taste of the dishes were the same; hearty, warm, filling, and delicious. The both of you finished your scrumptious dinner within the hour. While waiting for the dessert to be served, Erwin excused himself to go to the bathroom.

When he returned, Erwin gave you a bouquet of roses and handed a small velvet box over as well. Unravelling the ribbon, you opened the lid and saw a beautiful pendant hanging on a delicate silver chain. Erwin stood up and took his seat beside you, taking the necklace out of the box. Sweeping your hair to one side, Erwin kissed your exposed shoulder and put on the necklace for you.

"I think you may have realised this, sweetheart," Erwin spoke close to your ear as he fastened the necklace's clasp, "that we're back in the same restaurant, we're seated at the same table, and we're eating the same things from back then." Erwin held your shoulder and gently turned you around to face him.

"I just want you to know that no matter how much time has passed, some things will always be the same, just like my never-ending love for you." Erwin tilted your chin up and pressed his lips softly on yours. "Happy Valentine's Day, Mia." Your eyes were brimming with tears as you flung your arms around Erwin's neck and you pulled him close.

"I love you so much, Erwin." Then both of you were locked in a tight embrace and you only let go of Erwin when the waitress came to your table with a plate of tiramisu. She also offered to take a complimentary photo of you and Erwin, and gave you a photo as well. The both of you ate your dessert happily, and you were thinking of ordering a second slice. Erwin jokingly reminded you that he still had to pick up the kids. Erwin took your hand as you left the restaurant, clutching the bouquet of roses close.

"Let's come back again next year with the kids." You smiled as you sat in the car with the bouquet on your lap. Erwin nodded in agreement.

"Same orders?"

"No, honey, I don't think so." You chuckled, fondling with the pendant resting on your sternum. Erwin laughed along and reversed out of the parking lot, driving off holding your hand tightly in his.

#ack3rlady.asks #rei.answers #rei's ask games #rei's ask games: valentine's day special #i had to throw in some reivi in there lol I'M SORRY HAHA #anyway i hope you like this my loveeeeeeeeeee

10 Easy Keto Recipes for Dinner

Keto Cookbook | Keto Desserts

01. Creamy Tuscan Garlic Chicken

What could be better than a tasty keto Italian meal? Of course, a recipe that you prepare in just one skillet!

With the exception of the massive carbohydrate damage, this creamy Tuscan garlic chicken recipe is comparable to what you'd find at the Olive Garden.

To increase your vitamin intake, tomatoes and greens are added as a bonus, and the tender chicken breasts are perfectly seared and packed with protein.

It also doesn't hurt that it's delicious.

02. Easy Air Fryer Lemon Chicken

The powerful Air Fryer has to be among my favorite inventions of 2021. In addition to cooking food faster, it also produces a crispy finish without adding too many calories.

The cook time for this simple Air Fryer lemon chicken recipe is only five minutes!

It's a perfect summertime staple for when you don't want the oven to heat up the entire house because the lemon adds a sprite of cooling citrus.

03. Keto Adobo Air Fried Chicken Thighs

Even without breading, these chicken thighs cooked in the air fryer are delicious and come out nice and crispy.

Each bite gets a little kick from the adobo seasoning. Black pepper, oregano, salt, and garlic make up the traditional Puerto Rican seasoning. The combination produces a flavor explosion that will make you want more.

04. Keto Chicken Pot Pie

Who doesn't enjoy a good pot pie? Since almond flour is used in place of the typical, carb-heavy pastry flour, this comfort food has become much cozier.

For those chilly winter nights, the creamy filling made with chicken, peas, and carrots is the ideal comfort food.

05. Low Carb Keto Shrimp Scampi with Zucchini Noodles

I love shrimp scampi, and this recipe helps it feel less like a sinful indulgence.

To make a dish that is free of carbohydrates, zucchini noodles are used in place of spaghetti in this nutritious one-pan dish.

Seared shrimp, fresh parsley, and a recipe full of zesty lemon and garlic flavors make this dish absolutely delicious.

06. Keto Chicken Parmesan

The breadcrumbs are the dish's primary ingredient, as any fan of chicken parmesan will attest. But this low-carb, crowd-pleasing "parm" will make you speechless.

It is not only low-carb, but also grain- and gluten-free. In this recipe, parmesan cheese and a spice mixture are used in place of coating the chicken in flour.

You'll wonder after taking just one bite of this dish why breading was even necessary.

07. Juicy Keto Oven-Baked Ribs

Ribs that fall off the bone without spending hours baking? Really?

Yes! By cutting the prep time in half, this oven-baked ribs recipe replicates a traditional slow-cooked family favorite.

You can have juicy, tender ribs that will take you back to a summertime barbeque in just two hours.

08. Keto Fried Chicken

Have you ever encountered a person who dislikes fried chicken? It's pretty much one of those universally adored recipes, unless you're a vegetarian.

You can satisfy your craving with this version without adding extra carbohydrates. On the outside, it is crunchy and crispy, but the inside is juicy and succulent.

Instead of using too much breading, you can recreate the comfort food staple by using almond flour.

09. Keto Chicken Cheese Broccoli Casserole

Make this traditional holiday dish your new go-to weeknight meal! After all, when it's this quick and delicious, there's no reason to wait until November to enjoy a good keto Thanksgiving recipe.

This casserole of chicken, cheese, and broccoli is a hearty one-pot dish. Additionally, it is ooey, salty, and kid-friendly.

10. Keto Cajun Salmon Alfredo

This salmon is flavorful and creamy.

Each mouthful of salmon is enhanced by the sauce's silky coating of the fish. The enticing spice from the cajun seasoning counteracts the blandness of the cream.

Together, you can create a meal fit for a restaurant using just eight basic ingredients.

This recipe is fantastic because the creamy sauce stops the salmon from drying out, making it difficult to err.

National Shrimp Day

Epicures, chefs, suppliers, associations, restaurants, and others celebrate shrimp today, the most widely eaten crustacean in the United States. As part of the day, videos and recipes are shared, contests are organized, specials are offered, and shrimp are eaten.

There are many species of shrimp. Some large shrimp are known as prawns. Coldwater shrimp, known as pandalid shrimp, are small shrimp found in the ocean waters in the northeast and northwest regions of the United States and Canada. One of these is the Pandalus borealis, a pink-hued shrimp used in chowders, soups, and salads. Warm water shrimp are found in tropical and subtropical regions around the world. These include white, brown, and pink shrimp, as well as hopper, tiger, and banana shrimp. These shrimp vary in size, taste, texture, and cost.

Wild shrimp, classified as either warm water or cold water shrimp, are caught in coastal ocean waters. These shrimp are well regulated, and make up less than ten percent of the shrimp consumed in the United States. Wild shrimp caught on the coasts of the United States are known as domestic shrimp. Farmed shrimp are warm water shrimp that are grown in open and closed pond systems and given formulated feeds. Over ninety percent of the shrimp eaten in the United States are farmed shrimp raised in other parts of the world. Imported shrimp usually means farmed shrimp that come from either Asia or the Pacific and Gulf coasts of Central America and South America.

Shrimp may be purchased refrigerated or frozen, the latter being the most common. They may be purchased whole or peeled, headless, tailless, and deveined. They are usually sold by weight and are categorized into sizes: jumbo, extra-large, large, medium, and small. Shrimp provide lean protein, are low in fat, and contain iron, vitamin B12, choline, selenium, and omega-3s. Their nutrients benefit the heart, boost immunity, and fight inflammation. Although, they do contain more sodium and cholesterol than other seafood.

Shrimp are versatile and can be eaten raw or cooked. They can be canned, smoked, or pickled, and can be deep-fried, pan-fried, skillet-fried, boiled, grilled, barbequed, or baked. They can be breaded or left plain. They can be made with rice and can be used in soups, chowders, and salads. Coconut shrimp, jambalaya, gumbo, scampi, poon choi, and okonomiyaki are some common dishes shrimp are used in. Cacciucco, paella de marisco, and caldeirada are European dishes where shrimp can be found. Shrimp curry is common in Asia. On National Shrimp Day, we celebrate all types of shrimp and all the dishes that can be made with them.

How to Observe National Shrimp Day

Some ways you could observe the day include:

Make a dish that contains shrimp.

Catch some shrimp.

Keep an eye out for contests being organized, shrimp videos and recipes being shared, and restaurants offering specials.

Host a shrimp party. You could ask everyone who attends to bring a dish that contains shrimp.
