#its one of Those recipes

[tooquirkytolose]

Everyone loves my moms mexican rice and proclaim it the best they've ever had and I see a lot of recipes out there that are either too fussy or too bland so I'll just list the things my mom does that she says make it good

-you really truly do not need chicken bouillon/chicken broth. Plain water is fine, my mom started omitting the bouillon when I became vegetarian so I could eat it and literally no one knows the difference its fine

- you don't need cumin or cilantro you just need onion, garlic, salt and tomato sauce (or jarred tomatoes)

-FRY YOUR RICE!!! in oil!!! Fry until golden brown and nutty, DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP it adds flavor and deepens the color of the end product if you don't fry your rice in oil it looks pale and unappetizing

-blend your water, chopped onion, garlic cloves, and tomato sauce (or jarred tomatoes) add this liquid to the fried rice after you've drained the excess oil, cook like regular rice

You will now be the envy of all mexican mothers and taquerias 👍

#i mean if you WANT chicken broth thats fine #but believe me when i say most people are flabbergasted its not included in her recipe #i...dont know exact measurements shes one of those eyeballing it type of gals

i have found the best youtube channel

#for those curious the channel is called “maangchi” #its this one lady who maily just talks about korean food and recipes #her more recent videos only have english and korean custom captions #but my god!!! all of her videos have custom captions!!!!!! and she only has 6 million subscribers #there are far more popular youtubers who cant even do that!!!!

No Empire AU Obi Wan totally would have gone into meeting Luke and Leia all like "I am their UNCLE, not out of family relation but friendship" blah blah blah but then the twins start calling him "Obby" or smth (bc they can't pronounce anything else) and suddenly it's like Grandpa Mode Activated

#and ofc hes TOTALLY in denial abt it but like. its the TRUTH #also its one of those things where anakin & padme ahsoka etc. encourage it so they keep calling him that as they get older and it becomes #like his grandpa name #luke joins the jedi or whatever and obi wan tries to be his master and just gets the ULTIMATE sideeye from mace and yoda like sir that is #LITERALLY your grandson #anyways they give it a trial and it literally lasts like 5 hours before luke calls him that and gets some blatant favoritism going on #like obviously assuming theyd be lax on attatchment bc uhhhh no empire or whatevs but i also think you couldnt like train your own child #like recipe for disaster or whatevs. anyways thats how yoda gets luke he totally didnt abuse his position to get to hang out more with his #favorite lineage member like whaaaaat #star wars #obi wan kenobi #sw #prequel fixits w the twins raised by their parents are normally so uncompelling and narratively boring to me usually but like idk if it DID #happen it would be like this okay

moving past my hesitance to hc Apollo cooking ability and assigning him baking hobby bc that's my hobby

#i just.got really excited at the idea of pumpkin cookies with cream cheese filling so now im eager for fall to ccme back #this one time i want the passage of time to happen #i want apollo to have that same kind of excitement #apollo is now the kind of guy to hear abt a fun cookie or muffin recipe and go ''hm i should try a stab at that one'' #and it's fun bc then hes making more than he needs so hes always giving baggies of treats to the others #esp trucy #love. can be a yummy sweet food :] #though i also bet polly would be similiar to me and baking sessions are semi rare bc of lack of time and energy </3 #but when he does. everybody watch out its cookies time #or quickbread #bc those are more easier to make so thus not as stressful #ur not gonna see him make smth super fancy or complex. would rather die #rando thoughtz #ace attorney

milo and the one or two forevers ago poem…

i can’t remember the sound of your laugh or the tone of your voice i can’t remember your face not even your name but i know you were there.

i think i lost myself too one or two forevers ago but even if i did. i can’t remember who he was

#ooc #this poem in general fucking gets me #gonna get personal on the milo blog for a second but- #earlier this year i learned all my childhood stuff got thrown our or givin away in the foreclosure #no one told me till i asked my grandma if we could get an old recipe book from the house cause i wasnted to make banana bread #and its kinda. fucked me up alot. #and its been making me think about like. the fact i cant go back to things and the value of items and memories #and just the general concept of home and childhood homes and archival #the fucking ‘it mightve been good it might’ve been bad it might’ve been insignificant but it was yours! and now you can never get it back’ #breaks me. like yeah. i really cant get those back can i #i have. so much to day about my feelings about the fore closure but i dont wana just start venting- #thats its own post #anyway uh #vent in tags

next cookie recipie im trying is orange creamsicle...

#ghosts rambles #love it when my sibling who has tiktok sends me recipes to bookmark and try for later <3 #i might get stuff again for the strawberry and white choco one cause it tasted GOOD #we also have blueberries from a few months ago that we went picking for. might use those for muffins... #older sibling suggested blueberry pie... thinking #sorry im really hungry and this is not making it any better #i need to find something to eat for my fatass <3 cause rn my stomach feels like its got rocks in it and That's Not Good

my worst trait in my life is that if there is any task i hsve to do st all either for seriousness or for funsies i will legit slways say Wellll i have to make s spreadsheet abt this. sighing looking st my apartment purchases spreadsheet and at the blank spreadsheet that will become my apartment hunting spreadsheet and ar my spreadsheet for every single game ive ever played

#idm to brag to you guys but my sdv spreadsheet is so spectacular. i havent played in a while but i slayed it kinda rly hard. #i should make a blank version of it 4 if anybody wants it... it consists of likee. oh it hss come to pass i have in fact made a blank sdv #spreadsheet... #at least i think i have. the checklist page might be missing some things but i dont wanna go through and check. the list. lol. #but anyways as i was saying it consists of 5 subsheets soo its got like a mods section for listing mods with links 2 their posts for easy #updates etc. and then a checklidt of all the items you need to complete every collection + all the bundles + i dont think ive added in the #ones for quests yet (like repairing the bridge or the boat or getting jodi a starfruit or whatever) but if i ever get bsck into sdv i may #add thise. but rn its just for every collection (including cooking so it has all the ingredients you need for each recipe) #n thenn theres a sheet to list all your animals with their names n everything n what coop/barn theyre in #n then one with every single event + requirements and how to access it bc sometimes #they r so specific and i will judt forget i havent seen them or whatever. n then i just have a calendar with every birthday and holiday on #it which i personslly use to track wedding anniversaries/kids birthdays.. since i play with the mod where you cn marry multiple ppl i like #to be able to plan my weddings in advance #basically its like a rly good sheet i kjnd of slayed eith it #some of it i do need 2 change bc it is specific to. the mods i play with just some of the like. smaller stuff #like i use a mod that renames the luau into the potluck and rethemes it to be less. Of the devil.. so on my calendar i list it as the #potluck etc which if i actually wanted to share it id have 2 edit that but also i think everybody should play with that mod bc its rly msde #wellmade i meant. originally the sheet was just to track all my mods bc i use umm. hold on #99 mods... but only 75 of those are actual fun mods the other 24 are just dependencies and stuff.

Ah yes, the fun of clearly not being okay, on the edge of making a questionable purchasing decision, but also trying to hold on a few weeks for something that isn't important to other people around me. I want to rip out my brain and toss it out to be eaten by whoever will take it, remove my skin and put it through a shredder. Anything to be rid of this curse.

#i want to go home but i also want a story #i also want a specific food but can't make phonecalls even when theyre open otherwise id happily order 20 quid of delicious potato #i might try and make some this week if i have the energy. but i need a decent recipe #but i also want to remove my head #why is this still happening. i feel like i need to scream at the person who said i would be better early mid 20s #but its pointless talking to anyone because apparently no one knows what i say either since they got the wrong idea last time i spoke of it #and then after story i dont want to go on holiday with my family (plus thin walls and loud snoring will make me have violent thoughts) #i need to destroy this body and be free #i need to go home #i also need those potatoes so i will have to attempt something #the agonies of earth having good things but it also being torturous

now christmas foods have been available in stores for a little while i have finally taken the liberty of buying several different brands of mince pie to compare and figure out which one i need to stockpile for the trying months ahead

#mince pies are like right on the edge of what my sensory issues can handle but theyre so fucking goodddd they get a free pass #not the ones with candied orange peel tho those are a little much. too chewy. everything else in there is fine #also realized this is another regional thing and got so devastated for a moment im gonna have to mail out jars of mincemeat to my friends #shortcrust pastry. spoon of mincemeat. cut out a fun shape of pastry and put it on top. bake it. its NOT CHRISTMAS without them #its so good. its so good trust me on this #i would do homemade mincemeat but ur not allowed to mail that stuff overseas. sad #ive always wanted to try making it maybe i will pass out a recipe instead #contemplating this on public posts is fine and normal i swear anyway americans look up mince pie recipe NOW/j/j #oh ya mincemeat in this context isnt actual meat its just called that for some fuckin reason its spiced fruit and currants and stuff #its an old ass food tradition that USED to be meat but since the goddamn. tudor period or whatever tf the contents of the pie got changed #but the name didnt gdsDH
