I wonder how many people out there struggle with fantasy world building for their novels or #ttrpg they’re playing with friends?

I have a tough time keeping my private notes synced with what the players choose to do and my improvisations.

Extra thick French toast. Basically half a loaf of brioche, soaked in cream, cinnamon and eggs, fried on each side then baked at 325 for a bit until smelling delicious.

Topped with fresh whip, strawberries, Nutella + pb + coconut cream sauce, and candied habanero cinnamon peaches.

Apple and Swiss chard galette.

The dough is basically a savory pie dough (pate brisee) with whole wheat flour and butter. Chilled and rolled out, covered with some flash sautéed apple and chard (high heat for flavor, the cooking happens in the oven), folded, parm, pepper, perfect.

I want to make a kids toy with an nfc reader that can play music. Thinking raspberry pi, but the number of modules I need seems daunting.

So far I’m thinking:
* pi
* battery
* speaker
* nfc chip
* kid-friendly box that can survive falls and agitation

Any thoughts on how I can tackle any part?

Inspo for tomorrow: French bread stuffing.

Take fresh bread, toss with salt and oil and toast at 375 until crouton-like. Mix with sautéed onion, celery, mushroom and 3-4c broth.

Bake at 350 for 30m, crank to 400 to get the top crispy again before serving.

Mix, bake at 325 until bubbly, crank to 375 to brown.

Tikka masala deep dish pizza. All sorts of fusion in this one.

Made with heaping loads of brick cheese, homemade tikka masala, chorizo and basically a focaccia dough. Don’t ask for a recipe, just came to me.

22” paella loaded with shrimp, scallops and red snapper. Yes, it’s probably heretical to add peas. 🤷‍♂️

Recent dinner. Pork belly. Collards. Ombré gratin.

Actually cooked the pork belly straight from frozen. Drilled a hole and put in a thermometer. Magical, so easy.

Learning guitar as an adult is so intimidating. Like, how long am I gonna have to suck at this until it’s fun and I can play something that doesn’t sound like my toddler? I know I can do it, but the willpower, man.

Any odd thanksgiving dishes your family has always done? Would love some inspiration.

Bluesky definitely needs a #trending feature.

Now that The Onion owns InfoWars I can't wait to see what they do as real journalists.

Good morning Blues! What’s one thing you’re excited about today?

For me, it’s getting to know people in a new, positive, place.

BREAKING NEWS.

Donald Trump has nominated Matt Gaetz to be Attorney General.

This is 100% true. The sky is literally falling.

Flourless chocolate cake.

Ends up close to a fluffy fudge.

Cooking is an interesting combinatorics problem. There are tons of decisions you make when making a dish. Whatever you’ve made is most likely a universally unique dish if you add even a moderate amount of creativity.

Took a stab at the NYT Cooking Ombre Gratin. Turned out delicious.

Tip: soak your sliced beets in cold water while you slice the other tubers to keep their color from bleeding in the dish.

Hot take: I don’t believe global warming will get that much worse due to trumps policies. It’s already ridiculously cheap for utilities to install renewables. I’m optimistic the raw economics will win out over political interference. Energy CEOs see the writing on the wall, regardless of president.

Hello, Bluesky! I guess you need a first post somewhere, here it is. I'm a software developer by trade, but am curious about just about everything. Cheers!
