A little more than half a hide of 10oz leather, cut into 2” strips and then 2x2” squares. There’s 420 here and that should be about a dozen more than I need for the brigantine #armor I’m making. #LARP #Belegarth

I forgot to post these for a bit, but please enjoy pics of the three-course meal I made from a tuna lion procured at the local fish market and veggies from a nearby farmers market. (Full descriptions in replies, in lieu of alt text)

Post stream dinner:
Sushi rice, garlic and ginger kale, seared tuna, “teriyaki” sauce.
It’s not teriyaki; it’s just some hoisin, mirin, and sriracha…but it had all the expected teriyaki flavors so 🤷

I didn’t want to wait for my eggbites, so I made breakfast tacos to eat while the ingredients cool down so as not to prematurely cook the eggs.

Chilly, but don’t want to run the heater?
Just make stock! 😂😂
I just started this pot of chicken stock and it is already noticeably warmer in my little house after only ~30 minutes.

I appreciate how hard my local taco shop goes when I ask for extra napkins. A tenth of this stack would’ve been plenty.

I did a bunch more cooking today. Sandwich loaf and small boule from extra dough for the meatloaf sandos I mentioned last night
Then dinner was seared ahi, ginger rice, sautéed kale with garlic and pickled ginger; topped with an aioli of hoisin, kewpie, soy, and sriracha.

Bacon wrapped meatloaf for dinner/meal prep. For dinner, the ends with mashed potatoes and carrots. For lunches this week; the slightly undercooked middle seared and sandwiches. 😋

Dinner tonight is pho noodles topped with mushrooms and onions in a spicy hoisin glaze, roasted pork chop, and a Thai basil pesto with garlic, ginger, and toasted sesame oil.
This was inspired by “what if I made Thai basil pesto…”
It came out amazing and I will absolutely keep that idea for later
