1. Three or four big heaping cups of heads yields about two flat cups of petals. Big open blooms are better than little or half-open ones. Use your thumbnail to cut open the green base of flower and peel out the petals just above the undeveloped seeds. It will take about an hour to get two cups of petals, once you get the hang of it. Pick out any stray green bits: too many left in the mix will make the jelly yellow-green instead of gold.
2. Pour 4 cups of boiling water over the flower petals. Allow them to cool and then place into the fridge for at least 24 hours. Up to 48 hours is okay.
3. Strain the flowers well and squeeze out as much dandelion tea as possible. Make sure no petals remain in the juice, as they could decay in the jelly and shorten the shelf life.
4. Place into a large pot your 4 cups of dandelion tea, lemon juice, and pectin. Bring it to a boil while stirring the pectin.
5. Add sugar and return to a boil while stirring it smooth. Boil the jelly for 1 to 2 minutes.
6. Remove from the heat and pour into canning jars. Let cool on windowsill if possible and pop into fridge. Unless properly sealed with professional canning techniques, do not ever leave homemade jelly at room temperature, and consume fridge jelly in one or two months. Jelly can be frozen if it鈥檚 set right, but only thawed once, so several small jars are better than one big jar.
I don鈥檛 think any of my friends appreciated my song choice as much as I did 馃槄 but anyway, pumpkin cat snowman!
Video description: a orange crochet pumpkin is shown, then the camera slowly pans out as a black crochet cat with pink toe beans in a crochet pumpkin is placed on top of the first pumpkin (the head and front paws are sticking out of the top with a pumpkin top as a hat. There is a tail in the back, but it鈥檚 not easily seen in the video), creating a pumpkin cat snowman. The song Chariots of Fire is playing in the background. The audio isn鈥檛 necessary to enjoy the video but it is the music that was playing in my head when I stacked them
The fact that Wei Wuxian gave up an immortal's favor owed to himself to Jiang Cheng (in Jiang Cheng's perspective) and it wasn't enough to quell his hatred to not declare wwx an enemy to the sects.
Like let's ignore his debt to WN and WQ and say he can't help them for certain reasons, that's what the plan of Wei Wuxian defecting was for, but then despite having the option to walk away he actively chose to make things worse for them.
