#Paleo Pines Wrapped

[onwardsmynoblesteve]

decided to do the paleo pines wrapped thing, and learnt I have spent a RIDICULOUS amount of time playing this game.

That's just over half the dinos I actually have (I did the first ones I could think of until I ran out of room). Did I colour them in to show off the rarer colours I have? Perhaps. It's like with pets, you have to make as many people see them as possible.

pictured are:

Lucky (obviously)

Emerald the shamrock Gallimimus

Rusty the peach Styracosaurus

Mango the toddler with claws grass Coelophysis

Ripple the sky blue Desmatosuchus

Bumpy the moon glow Ankylosaurus

Pesto the dragonfly Postosuchus

Heath the ocean Therizinosaurus

Espresso the coffee Troodon

Once again making it in with minutes to spare for my Paleo Pines Wrapped 2023!!!!! I think I may have. Quite a high ratio of times pet to hours played

[Image: the Paleo Pines Wrapped template, filled accordingly with statistics and a few simple illustrations:

Number of times I pet dinos: 4426! Hours played: 121+ Favourite Townsperson: Avery, a man with tan skin, slight stubble, and brown hair drawn back into a ponytail ornamented with a couple feathers. He’s drawn looking out toward the viewer with a charismatic smile. I may have a little crush. My dino best friend: Four dinosaurs, each drawn:

Jack, a melanistic deinonychus

Lucky, the game’s core companion, a sky blue parasaurolophus

Candycorn, a carrot-coloured ankylosaurus

Fairy Bread, a peach-coloured wuerhosaurus (freckles pattern, she has sprinkles…)

Distance travelled: 2056+ km Most befriended dino: Gallimimus, all five drawn as follows (colour/pattern):

Pistachio, dragonfly/small stripes

Pomegranate, orchid/broad stripes

Pansy, portals/small stripes

Pixie, sunray/small stripes

Petunia, storm/broad stripes

Favourite crop: watermelon (in real life too)! The melon is drawn as it grows in game, and surrounded by fat yellow stars denoting its quality. End ID.]

I've Been having a Blast playing this Game, Also drawing the Dinos from it. (sorry I didn't draw Granny, I cant draw people to save myself)

Granny Agami is the best, She reminds me of my Grandma

I think "aww ye granny time" is the best thing I've ever seen, it didn't matter that you didn't draw her, you made that section just as much a work of art as your gorgeous dinosaur drawings.

Thank you so much for playing! Here's to another 168 hours!

Doing the @paleopinesofficial Wrapped thing because this game has for real brought me so much joy - Pippin is my absolute fave they’ve grown on me so much, but there’s no way I could choose a favorite dino! I love em all but pictured are a few honorable mentions - Lucky (duh), Tigress (allosaurus), Fern (gallimimus), Monet (styracosaurus), and Rosalba (stegosaurus) - I had way too much fun coloring the templates. Thank you to the Paleo Pines team for making this game with so much love and care! <3

This is an adorable idea! Lemon is my most used ingredient, my favorite seed is predictably carrots--since they have the shortest turnaround time.

As for most befriended, my full five-dino bands of psittacosaurus and corythosaurus speak for themselves.

[ posts this in three different places ] ANYWAYS. you ever love a plush so much you make it a little shirt?

#also literally just realised i can make it a little night cap and it can be jammies #this was supposed to just be test fabric to see if the very... messy. pattern i made via saran wrap and masking tape would work. #it did! the sleeves however were not part of the original pattern. they were just Slapped On so they're Gross. #lucky paleo pines my beloved. im gonna try and refine the sleeves at some point but for now im pleased with the results of my bullshit

[allosaurus-fragilis]

I don't have a Spoofy so I'll do a Paleo Pines wrapped instead.

I accidently deleted my first file where I had a lot more hours in. This is my second run so far.

Also I don't know how to see the number of times you've pet your dinos.

#paleo pines #yes the yellow gallimimus is named after the chocobo from final fantasy v

[lizkreates]

Goal this week: write 5 more comic pages!

My soul would evacuate my body if I attempted NaNo, since I'm not a writer, but that won't stop me from setting goals!

November goals:

Finish playing Paleo Pines (I love it! But gotta wrap it up.)

Finish writing my Vashwood comic Part 1+Part 2 (maybe Part 3??)

Start thumbnail pages by the end of Nov. or the start of Dec.

I have a color gig tentatively restarting in January, and it will take priority over everything. My team is great and I enjoy the project, but I cannot express how much I've missed creating for myself. :c So gonna do as much as I can beforehand.

#lizblabs #this Vashwood comic is going to be the longest comic I've drawn - even longer than the one for my own OCs!! #it'll probably be 20+ pages #but in 2 parts #it's going to take a WHILE #I'm invested emotionally in the story I GOT IT THERE #for both Vash AND Wolfwood #I tend to write Vash as my POV since I understand him better #but I think I'm finally understanding Wolfwood the longer I let it cook - you can pack so much sad in him #the Trigun compilation book is still a goal! #it's far off but slowly working toward it

[dadboat-fr]

been so wrapped up in paleo pines i haven’t really been keeping up w tumblr at all and i am regretting it now that it seems there’s drama going on lol. my nosy ass simply cannot resist trying to sniff out what happened even if i know no one involved

#the yachtfather yells #literally just curious abt the deets like. wha happen #multiacctg?? who? how? huh? *goes back to collecting rare color dinos*

PALEO PINES FAQ

Concise list of FAQ’s that will be updated regularly!

When is the release date? Exact date TBD but we’re aiming for 2021!

What consoles will it be on? We’re currently developing for PC, and will hopefully bring PPines to Switch down the line.  Other consoles TBD. ✨Wishlist on Steam: HERE✨

What dinosaurs will be in the game? Is ____ gonna be included? We currently have a list of 50 different dinos to find and tame in the game! The only place to find all the confirmed dinos is on the  >DISCORD SERVER< The full list is being kept under wraps for now, keep an eye out for more dinos as we release ‘em ;) Side note: There’s literally hundreds of prehistoric animals we’d love to showcase in the game, but time and budget demands us keep it to a reasonable number initially. Fingers crossed the game is successful and we can continue to add in new rosters of animals!

Are there going to be other prehistoric animals? Yes! I’ve been addressing everything as “dinos” for the sake of brevity, but some archosaurs, synapsids and pterosaurs will be popping up along your journey!

Will it be multiplayer? In order to release Paleo Pines for y’all as soon as we can, multiplayer will unfortunately not be included upon initial release. We’re a small team and multiplayer of this scope is a huge endeavour all on its own, and could take months to perfect. But it certainly is on the table, we’d love nothing more than to bring cute dinosaur co-op and player trading to the game. We want to take the time to do it right!✨

How much will it be? Is it free? We are developing a premium game experience for PC/Switch, so I can confirm it will not be free. By doing this we can avoid irritating free-to-play/ pay-to-win game design and micro transactions. Nobody wants those, we just want to explore with cute dinos at our own pace! 

Can I donate to support development?   💙Paleo Pines is 100% fully funded!💙   We'd like to thank those who have reached out with a desire to support our team though, the sentiment is very much appreciated.  The best way you can support us is to follow us on social media, wishlist on steam and share our development!

Where can I follow/support Paleo Pines? We're currently posting news and development to several social media sites. Find them below! 🌿Twitter🌿 ✨Instagram  ✨ 🔹Discord🔹 ☁️Steam☁️

Other things I can confirm:

You are not ‘catching’ the dinos, you’re taming them!

You CAN pet them!

You can name them

Dinos will never die or kill each other. If you neglect your dinos, they’ll simply leave your ranch

The player character model is gender neutral, and can be customised and accessorised to the player’s choosing

The dinosaurs will follow modern scientific depictions. That means feathers, protofeathers and known colouration when possible!

The Handy Guide to Salad Greens

Salad greens aren’t just for salad. You’ll be amazed at what you can do with the many varietals of lettuce and greens.

We give you the rundown on common salad greens, including their history, taste, texture, culinary uses, and nutrition, so you’ll never ask yourself “what’s radicchio?” when reading a bag of spring mix again.

Whether you crave crunch and subtle flavor (hello, iceberg lettuce) or soft leaves with a zingy, peppery kick (arugula!) there’s a salad green on this list destined for your plate.

Our handy recipes and cooking recommendations will show you how to mix up your salad routine in the kitchen. You can even try grilling romaine, or roasting radicchio for a milder, earthy flavor than the leaf’s typical spicy kick! Let this guide enlighten you to the world of salad greens and the many ways to incorporate them into your diet.

Iceberg Lettuce

Classic Iceberg exudes Americana: You’ll find its crisp, pale green leaves adding crunch to a burger, or forming an entire foundation in a wedge salad. It’s also great for a quick, homemade salad and tends to be kid-friendly with its neutral flavor and crisp texture.

Iceberg lettuce is notoriously lacking in the nutrition that defines its darker, leafy green counterparts, but it’s nevertheless a great addition to your diet and can help you meet your vitamin and mineral intake goals with vitamins like vitamin C, vitamin K, and vitamin A. (1)

Taste and Texture: Iceberg lettuce has a high water content, giving it a clean, fresh flavor. It definitely is not a bold contender on the flavor scale, but makes for a great foundation to heartier dressings and flavorings. When served fresh, iceberg lettuce is crispy and crunchy, and should break apart with a satisfying snap. It will grow limp and mushy if left alone for too long – so eat it fresh!

How to Use It: A classic “dinner salad” like you’d find in a diner makes great use of iceberg – just add tomatoes, carrots, and a Paleo-friendly ranch or dressing of choice. Like we said before, iceberg lettuce is a great burger and sandwich complement, and in this BLT Avocado stack, it even subs in for bread. Try it in lettuce wraps, too! Pro tip: Iceberg lettuce is one of the most affordable greens you can buy.

Romaine Lettuce

While a recent recall may leave you wary, romaine lettuce is safe to consume now. Sold in heads or hearts, where the outer leaves have been removed, romaine lettuce is a common lettuce used in commercially packaged salads. It’s a key component of Caesar salad, for example.

Unlike many other lettuces, the sturdy leaves on romaine lettuce make it tolerant to heat, meaning it holds up well in grilling or braising.

Taste and Texture: Romaine is bitter in comparison to milder iceberg or butter lettuce. But like iceberg, it’s ultra-crisp and sturdy when served fresh. It actually gets its bitter flavor from a milky liquid excreted when you break the leaves apart.

How to Use It: You can use romaine lettuce in virtually any salad recipe – it’s the usual suspect in Caesar salad, but it’s delicious paired with most fresh veggies. You can try it in this protein-packed turkey cobb salad, shrimp and avocado salad with light cilantro dressing, or as a crunchy complement to this burrito bowl. For a warm alternative, try brushing romaine hearts with olive oil, and throwing a bit of lemon juice, salt, and pepper on it. Grill the leaves until charred, about five minutes.

Radicchio

Technically, radicchio is a chicory leaf, which is closely related to lettuce and often used in salad greens. You’ll notice it as the vibrant red leaves often found in “Italian” salad mixes, or as the head of reddish-purple leaves with white veins on the produce aisle.

Radicchio is loaded with vitamin K, and contains moderate amounts of other essential nutrients. (2) Radicchio is used heavily in Italian cooking. In fact, much of the radicchio consumed around the world is named for the Italian regions it originated from.

Taste and Texture: Radicchio is a strongly flavored leaf vegetable. Served fresh, it can be bitter and spicy. This is why it’s delicious when tossed with milder leaves, as it adds just a hint of flavor. Its crisp leaves hold up well to flavorful vinaigrettes.

When cooked, radicchio mellows some and the bitterness fades. This mellower, warmer version of radicchio complements chicken and fish well.

How to Use It: To add some bite and color to your salads, add freshly chopped radicchio to a mix of greens. For an excellent side dish to any protein, try this roasted balsamic radicchio with bacon and pine nuts. The sharp-flavored leaves mellow into an earthy flavor, and bacon and pine nuts add tons of fatty deliciousness.

Butter Lettuce

Like the name suggests, butter lettuce is buttery soft and has a slightly sweet flavor. The name butter lettuce also includes Bibb and Boston lettuce varieties.

You’ll often find butter lettuce in a clamshell in the grocery store, still attached to a root. It’s a touch more expensive than common varieties like romaine or iceberg, but it’s so silky smooth, it’s worth it. The loosely coiled leaves also make butter lettuce easier to clean – that’s a win in our department.

Taste and Texture: Mild and sweet, butter lettuce is a softer counterpart to crunchy romaine or iceberg. It still holds a little crunch, though.

How to Use It: Butter lettuce leaves are often the perfect size for wrapping up your favorite foods, like in these cashew chicken lettuce tacos or these chicken lettuce wraps with almond butter sauce. Butter lettuce is also gorgeous when served with a simple vinaigrette, no toppings needed!

Arugula

Also known as “rocket”, arugula is known for its zingy, peppery flavor. It’s a salad green with multifaceted uses, from topping a pizza to serving alongside a Mediterranean meal.

Arugula is a great source of vitamin A. (3)

Taste and Texture: Bright, peppery, and a little spicy, arugula is a unique green. Its thin, dark green leaves aren’t particularly crisp, but what they lack in texture they make up in bold flavor.

How to Use It: Adorn your Paleo pizza with a bed of arugula for a bright finish to your meal, or toss arugula with cherry tomatoes and vinaigrette for an acidic and zingy side salad. They’re even a great complement to breakfast, like in this crispy bacon and baked eggs in a Portobello mushroom recipe. Consider tossing them with beet noodles in this beet noodle arugula salad.

Spring Mix (Mesclun)

What is spring mix (also called mesclun)? Basically, it’s all of the above, in baby form! Spring mix is any combination of the baby leaves of a great variety of greens, including arugula, endive, spinach, red leaf lettuce, radicchio, and more. Mesclun technically refers to a French blend of chervil, arugula, leafy lettuce, and endive, but the terms are often used interchangeably.

Taste and Texture: You can expect a wide variety of flavors and textures from spring mix, as it’s a blend of various salad greens. There will be mild basic lettuce leaves, but also zingy, peppery arugula, and spicy radicchio.

How to Use It: Opt for spring mix as a colorful, flavorful base to any salad – it tastes great with heavy, creamy dressings and light vinaigrettes alike. You can also throw some spring mix into a Paleo sandwich for more texture and a healthy dose of greens.

Cress

Technically an herb, cress is a peppery plant that’s closely related to watercress and mustard greens. It’s a nutrient-dense green, with tons of vitamin A, vitamin C, and vitamin K. (4) You’ll find it tossed in salads, adorning soups, and atop sandwiches.

Taste and Texture: Cress has a sharp, spicy flavor packed into its baby leaves. The leaves themselves are soft, but they pack a big punch.

How to Use It: Adorn creamy, rich soups with cress for a peppery kick. Add it to your salads for the same, or pack it in a sandwich for even more flavor.

Beet Greens

Beet greens are exactly what they sound like; they’re the leafy tops of beetroot, and make an excellent addition to any salad. They can also be braised, sautéed, and added to soups for an extra dose of greens.

They’re a nutrient-dense food often tossed out or overlooked, so don’t throw them away the next time you pick up some beets.

Taste and Texture: Delicate beet greens have a sweet, mild flavor, akin to spinach or Swiss chard. They’re soft, but they hold up well in salads and sandwiches.

How to Use It: These greens are great raw, tossed with the beets themselves as well as a light vinaigrette and some walnuts. They can be cooked in the same way as greens like spinach or chard. You can sauté them in avocado oil with some salt, pepper, and lemon, or add them to soups for an extra dose of greens.

[heyangel-archive]

hey guys! i don’t know about you, but around the holidays i usually like to curl up with some hot chocolate and read. so i’ve gathered some fics that are good for those cold winter nights.

** means i haven’t read it, but it came highly recommended 

chestnuts roasting… & all that by elsi_bee 

Louis is apparently the only person at his new job who is single as can be. It’s not a big deal to just tell his new colleagues that he has a boyfriend, right? Until he has to make this imaginary boyfriend magically appear at the office holiday party. Cue fake relationship antics with a certain someone who is more than willing to play along.

my world is filled with cheer (and you) by rbbsbb

They’re all in Secondary school together, and Harry isn’t new to pining. The annual Secret Santa gift exchange is on, though, and when he pulls Louis’ name, Harry decides that he needs to get his boy the best present that he could ever ask for.

(Or, Harry is in love with Louis, his best mate, and is his Secret Santa this year.)

do you realize by velvetoscar **

Harry really didn’t expect to be swept up in snowflakes and eyelashes and coy smiles when he’d agreed to go on a skiing holiday with his lads. Nor was he expecting to cherish the sound of someone’s voice over his own thoughts, marveling about the way it crackled against the burning embers in the fireplace. And he really, really wasn’t expecting for his peaceful life to be turned on its head, all because of a bloody snowboard.

But, then again, he also never expected that he could fall in love in less than two weeks, so. So maybe life isn’t what Harry expected.

young & beautiful by velvetoscar

Louis, to his horror, attends an elitist university in which the name Zayn Malik means something, Niall Horan doesn’t stop talking, there are pianos everywhere, and Harry Styles, only son of a drug-addled, clinically insane ex-rocker, has a perfect smile and empty eyes.

my lights stay up but your city sleeps by pearlydewdrops

Louis has trouble sleeping, Harry has a habit of wrapping himself around Louis during the nights, and a mutual agreement to engage in a fun and simple thing quickly turns into something perhaps not so fun, and certainly not simple.

bittersweet & delicate (tomorrow may not come again) by tolvsmol 

“I wanna promise you the sun and the moon and the stars and everything in between in the entire cosmos.”“What about something a bit more realistic?”

God,

Louis was everything.

Everything.

“I’ll choose you, always,” Louis promised, eyes infinitely softer, fingers just a whisper on Harry’s cheek, “whatever happens, whenever it happens, I’ll always choose you.” He tugged Harry forward, molding their lips together in an innocent kiss.

or the au where louis gives up on harry and harry wants to give up on everything

flower & chocolate by teaandtumblr

It was nice, for a bakery he supposed.

Then he approached the display cabinet. 

And the foreboding slammed into him. Because every product had letters next to it. Letters. GF, DF, V, O, VGN. 

What. The. Fuck? 

Lifting his eyes to the chalkboard menu spread across the back wall Louis felt physically ill. ‘Gluten-free’, ‘organic’, ‘vegan’, ‘paleo’, ‘dair-…’ Wait, what the fuck was a paleo? He had entered some hipster-trash establishment and it was more than time to get out.

or, Louis is a single dad and Harry works at the newly opened bakery down the street.

welcome to gilmore’s hallow by kassio **

Don’t call Louis an empty-nester. Yes, his only daughter is is about to start university, but he’s only 35, for God’s sake. He finally gets to look forward to life as a young-ish bachelor in… the sleepy small town of Gilmore’s Hollow. Okay, maybe that’s not terribly exciting, but he’ll get by with a little help from his friends, and plenty of pastries from Harry Styles’ bakery.

all i want for christmas is by crybaby **

With Harry up against his side, his little four year old snuggled in his lap like it’s her favourite place, Louis could really believe they’re a real little family, off to their chalet to spend Christmas in the snow. A real little family where Louis would have the luxury of kissing Harry under mistletoe and rolling around in the fresh snow with him, taking him upstairs to his bedroom and fucking him to keep him warm.

we’ll wake up in the snow & burry all our trouble by immortalized **

It’s snowing, Louis’s car is dead, his cell phone doesn’t get service out here, and his kid has to pee

Luckily for him, there’s Harry

Or, on the way to his mum’s house for Christmas, Louis finds himself in a bit of a dilemma, but he also finds himself a cute boy

push my buttons by krisstylinson

“Fuck off.” Louis leans into this boy’s personal space just to show how unaffected he is, even if it is technically a bluff. “My team’s winning.”

The boy crowds right back into him with a smug look, and that turns out to be their downfall—a large man to his left nudges his arm and gestures to the jumbotron, where Louis and fucking Newsboy are currently encased in a cartoon heart with the words KISS CAM burning brightly above them.

marking up the atmosphere by acidveins

At the age of twenty, Harry deals with things expected to occur at his age: student loans, instant meals, electricity bills, and the constant, incessant presence of never ending coursework.That, and the job of raising his six year old daughter and avoiding the charm of a young, successful, and very off-limits Louis Tomlinson.

make my wish come true (baby all i want for christmas is you) by larrymylove

Louis has just agreed to spend the holidays with his family, and to bring Harry along with him. There’s just one problem…he and Harry have broken up, and are wanting to avoid telling everyone until after the holidays. 

The fake/pretend relationship AU with a twist.

never shut us down by togetherwecouldbealright

Louis is an insecure mess and he hides behind his blog. Harry’s a boy with a personality too bright and he’s everything Louis thought he would hate. They end up falling in love.

and down the long and silent street by whimsicule **

The year is 1881 and if you’re alone in this world you might as well be dead, because starving dogs have no mercy.

Or: Wherein Louis and Harry are on the opposite ends of the social ladder, but their paths still cross on the filthy streets Louis calls his home. The odds are staked against them from the beginning, and even more when Louis’ past finally catches up with him.

these inconvenient fireworks (message me if you want this one) **

Christmas/Future AU in which nobody tries out for X Factor but the boys end up finding one other eventually anyway. Louis is a jaded bastard who owns a cat named Duchess and teaches drama to teenagers, Harry is an idealistic aspiring photographer/part-time footy coach, Zayn teaches English lit and wears leather jackets, Liam saves people from burning buildings, and Niall is Niall.
