This looks great! Seriously, I think the next time I'm asked to do a charcuterie board, I am absolutely going to be making this!! I sort of suck at crescent dough, or fluff pastry, croissants, etc. This would hopefully be worth the effort!
I learned how to bake a Cornucopia made from Crescent Roll dough from a video. Turned out pretty cool. Was a hit at Thanksgiving!

I have got to do some painting. I have a bloody grocery bag of assembled and primed figures. I have a ton of goblins. But maybe I'll do a necromunda ganger. I wish I could have a poll, but oh well. Perhaps I'll work on the trolls, finish up my actual army list or goblin wolf-chariots.

So we ended up having friends over last night and had dinner. Sort of having time with friends when they are available. Since folks have obligations on Thursday. There were a total of 5 people, there was a lot of cleaning involved.

Did some additional baking. We've got more pictures in store to follow. An enormous ham. Some delicious salad, a green salad. And the fancy Internet meme recipe. I'm really looking forward to serving.

I made a cranberry tart. I'm excited. But also peeved. It's not smooth. I want the surface smooth. But oh well. I'm looking forward to the almond flour crust. Hopefully it turns out well! I'll get a cross section pic later.

It's been weeks or months since I've painted something. I really need to work on my little gobbos. I feel like I've made progress posting food pics. But my miniatures and army progress has certainly been lagging lately. I have a ton of figures during the summer that I primed.

I made a pie. Key lime pie. 🍋‍🟩 🥧

The GF bought ingredients for a pie and has communicated to me about a desire for pie. I have the goal of making a key-lime pie this week. The surprising thing is she bought Stroopwaffle crumb for the pie crust. We don't have any whipped cream, but I could make that. Not sure about toppings.

I just haven't had the spoons or mental energy to do any hobby or craft stuff for painting lately. I feel like my backlog is just growing. But I also feel, if I don't have 4-6 hours to invest and solidly focus on painting. I just can't do it. I feel like 30min at a time isn't sufficient.

Butter chicken lasagna. Basically butter chicken with broken lasagna noodles in it.

So recently I've been watching a pretty damn good food related YouTube channel. Called Sorted Food. It's been entertaining to watch. My lovely GF suggested we give their app a shot. We've been using it with some great success.

Here's the aforementioned ramen I made. I think it got dressed up real nice.

I totally forgot to upload pics of the cooking I've done recently. Here's some excellent Chicken Parmesan I made previously.

Made some Chicken Parmesan, did some nice ramen as well recently. I need to do some hobbying. I've got a multitude of goblins and other figures that need assembling and painting.

I made pasta last night. It was.. quite simply an unmitigated disaster. The only thing with any redeeming value was the new sauce. But even then, it needs a little practice. At best, being charitable, it needs practice. At worst, my pasta was... Horrendous. A production, a chaotic mess.

I made a cake. Peanut butter, with peanut butter frosting and peanut butter ganache. I'm not a very good baker and cake decorating is not my forte. But it turned out delicious!

I did some assembly yesterday. It was a PITA. This I would have preferred to do as a sub-assembly. But it's too impractical. There is so much detail I won't be able to paint. There's a Stargrave game planned, this will be my apocalyptic crew.

I did some fried rice yesterday. I give it a barely passing grade. But tasted okay. This might require more science.

Today is a scary and dangerous day. I'm going to be watching some videos and making some fried rice. Which is to be considered "dangerous knowledge".

I might need to be cut out of my home after this.

I made some drunken noodles. I think it turned out great.

Gonna make some lap xuong sausage. Or at least once I have a good recipe. Been googling and doing some searching. Picked up some casings. It's been a while this should be fun.

Did some deep fried pickles as an experiment. They turned out okay. Though, my frying game needs solid work. I would say the batter, the technique, coverage, etc.

I just got gifted a Shitake mushroom kit! In addition to doing a ton of pickles. It looks like I'll be growing some mushrooms. In addition to the other fun culinary adventures currently in progress, I have a plethora of Gloomspite Gitz to glue together and prime and paint. So stay tuned!

Did a lot of water bath canning yesterday. Gonna do more today. I'm hopeful. But I am curious how it may impact the freshness and crunch.
August 17, 2025 at 7:43 PM
Did a cooking experiment. What with the new fancy Oven, I'm still getting used to some of its features. One thing that is going to get a lot of use. Is the dehydration mode. These are stir fry strips marinated overnight in yoshidas. Never will I pay $15 for 2oz ever again.
