#kirby #daily kirby #my art #digital #hal laboratory #nintendo #my wife and my partner said I can go to the fancy korean bakery nearby and pick out lots of snacks #*and* it's right next to a taiwanese grocery store that probably has a lunar new year candy I've been idly looking for for like. 20 years. #not a joke btw #one year we celebrated lunar new year in school because blah blah white people school with like 2 chinese kids #it was meant as like a cultural exchange thing but it feels very tokenizing in retrospect #but Anyway #there was one specific sweet they brought that I've been wanting more of Ever Since and I'm pretty sure it was candied lotus seeds #but I only pinned that down for relative certain like. this month #and we mostly shop at american korean and japanese groceries #so I had one one time over 20 years ago #and haven't seen them since. #until jessica kellgren-fozard's recent video with her wife about lunar new year traditions #and I was like 'oh dang I probably can actually just look that up now huh' #cuz I remember the shape very distinctly #and I've been kind of looking for it since before I was on the internet lol #so it genuinely didn't occur to me that I might be able to look it up. #point being - a brief break in The Horrors for Snack Excitement :)
