we went apple picking last week so we have an abundance of apples and apple cider. Today I made this miso Gateau Invisible which includes a recipe for a white miso caramel sauce but I wanted to use up my apple cider a bit bc it goes bad literally immediately after opening so I made white miso apple cider caramel sauce:
Take 2 cups of apple cider (not apple juice) and boil in a deep, heavy saucepan until you only have 1/4-1/3 cup of syrup.
Add 1 cup of packed brown sugar, 5 tbls butter, and 3/4 cup heavy cream, and bring to a boil. Cook until quite dark and thick, about another 4-5 minutes while whisking.
Take the pan off the heat and whisk in 2 tbls white miso paste. It takes some effort to get the miso paste to combine so don't get frustrated if it stays clumpy at first. Just keep whisking!
Take off the heat, allow to cool slightly, and transfer to a clean glass jar. It will probably keep for a week.

I am actually so serious I think it really messes with a childs creativity and joy to tell them to never make a mary sue OC. Like that unbridaled form of joy where you make a self insert OC who super cool and everyone loves them and they have every superpower in the world SHOULD be something a kid makes, it nourishes their ability to create things for fun and not be stifled by "oh but what if my character is too overpowered and cringey...". whatever

Are you a student who is unable to donate to Palestine, but still want ways to show your support?
Me too! Unfortunately, searching up ways for students who can't drive, spend money, or drop school for a week to show solidarity for Palestine just comes up with "centrist" (if not blatantly pro-israel) articles for teachers telling them how to stay neutral during discussions with students. So! Here are some ways that I've thought of to bring pro palestine sentiment into your school and community! You are more than encouraged to add on any ideas of your own!
Wear shirts, pins, or anything outwardly pro palestine. If you can't find something, make it.
Email your representatives. Email Congress. Email the White House, or whatever your country's equivalent would be. Let the people in charge know you want a ceasefire
Talk to your local library about holding an educational night about the genocide, and/or about Palestinian culture.
Talk to your peers. Find people who share your views. Create a fuss together.
Talk to your teachers about it. Having an authority figure on your side could make things so much easier for you.
Make stickers, posters, pamphlets, etc to put up around your school, town/city, anywhere you can.
Educate yourself on anti-palestine talking points and how to refute them in a calm and logical manner. (Palestinian Toolkit is a great website for that)
Speak up! It's fucking scary, but if you can, don't let people's bigotry go unchecked. (You can use knowledge from the last point to make it easier to talk)
But also, know when to give up. It sucks, but not everyone is worth wasting your time debating. Some people won't change their mind no matter what.

what living on earth does to a mf
(i just think that being friends with two queer women and one genderfluid demon would have some influences on muriel and they'd REALLY take to individuality after a lifetime of solitude in heaven. also i love them.)
