    Hey Firesquids! I made caramel sauce with honey the other day. I randomly came across a recipe someone did for the honeyed apples from Botw and I wanted to see how it was with honey. It was really good! I also drizzled some on a brownie afterwards and it was amazing 😋

    Hope you are well, take care ❤️

    Oh wow! That set up is amazing! ❤️ It reminds me of the chorizo/pear soup I made last year. I'm planning to make that sometime this week. I'll share the results if it turns out good!

    Here's the candies I made with the caramel. I didn't have a double-broiler so that would've made things easier hehe, but they turned out fine with the mini-cupcakes, but the dipped caramel cubes got so melty and looked so bad 😅 but tasted fine when chilled! Just wanted to share my cow-patty failure 😆 I totally get it! It's so much work to do complicated dishes like that, but you did great! And it feels so good when everything turns out like it should. 🎉

    Haha I love the cow patty with the toothpick. If it tastes good that's all that matters! I love chocolate caramels, especially if they're salted.

    I forgot to mention before but we planted an apple tree in the back yard a few years ago, it's got a few different varieties of apples that are grafted onto it. (I can't remember which ones, hopefully the tags hold up) It grew apples for the first time this year! But I went out there and plucked them all off because its not ready for fruit just yet.

    Today I had to use up some scone mix so I made a bunch of blueberry scones.
    They're a little dry but tasty with a glass of milk.

    Oh I love scones! ❤️ They are dry but still so good! My sister used to make them all the time and would use lemon curd for the dryness. I miss those hehe. That's so fun! I planted one of those, but mine died so I never replaced it. I hope yours grows to be healthy and strong! 🌳

    The caramel was made with honey, but salted might be fun to try next time! If there is a next time 😅 I totally get it, it's so fun, but some of the more complicated recipes can be sm effort. I actually made the chorizo soup I mentioned. It's so much effort, but worth it when it's done!

    (I'll share a better picture of a bowl of it sometime later. It has a lot of steps, but it's soooo good!)

    Hey Blue!!
    I've also been pretty inactive lately because life has been so busy. Id been working on a gift for one of my uncles then we finally had our wedding party and it was beautiful! Then my other uncle bought us a new fridge as a wedding gift, so we've been renovating the kitchen a bit to fit it in there, so much to do still but I'm very happy with the new fridge!
    Hope things are going well for you too! 💜

    And thanks, I thought they went perfectly with the little twin stars! 🌠🌠

    I get that! Sometimes I want to log in here and start actively posting again, but life says 'no' and boot stomps me 😅 Sounds like you've been very productive! I remember you mentioning that, I'm glad you got the chance to have your wedding. That's so wonderful! I'm so happy for you ❤️

    What a nice and generous gift to. Time to stock it up! Renovations feel like they take foreeever, but you'll be so happy when it's done! I've been trying to do the same for my basement and it's been such a on and off project...but I'm getting there!

    I've been good thank you! Just taking each day at a time. I just started my gardens and that really helped my mood. Going to plant the melons tomorrow. Take care! ❤️

    It was wonderful but soooo much work, I'm never getting married again!

    It's nice you got your gardens started! I hope you grow some huge melons. Our roommate has offered to help us pay for some raised beds so we can make better use of the front lawn. That's going to be a whole project but one that I'm excited to start when life slows down for a minute. I've been neglecting my plants so lately I've been re-potting and cleaning out my greenhouse and at least getting my house plants in order.

    Oops I sent you the wrong black rose. The March 30th 2025 one was requested by Chere. Do you mind sending it either sending it back to me or their way when you get the chance? I’ll send you the other two for you as well.

    I'm not sure if it was actually you, but I saw you as a commentor on Dayoman's Spyro 120% Speedrun stream where he and the chat were having a debate on what insect species the metal bugs in High Caves were. If I remember, you said "1" which was the vote for Beetle, the other was Ant.

    I never knew you had a Youtube Channel, and was a fan of Spyro. (I mean, the Island name was a dead giveaway I was unaware of until now, ha!)

    Well, nice to see another Spyro the Dragon fan on the forums.

    Hope you had a nice Christmas! I forgot to tell you this, but I made a version of the Zelda pumpkin soup that's really close to the in-game version. If you're interested, I made a post about it. Hope you're doing well! ❤️

    what edibles did you make today?

    Right now I'm trying out a new recipe. I have some Bisquick that needs used up soon and I thought, well, what better way to burn through it than with cookies or bread or something. I'm new to Bisquick and thought I'd get familiar with it since the pandemic caused all the flour and stuff to...

    That looks so good, super cool you used a pumpkin that you grew, and I love the presentation in the jar, well done!

    Thank you! I froze a lot of it and it tastes amazing. Almost like potato soup but with way more flavor. Wish I could give you a bowl! I actually found a soup based off of the grandmother from WindWaker that uses pears. I wasn't sure what to expect but omg it was delicious.

    I love and envy your passion for cooking. Huh using pears is interesting. Makes me think of this yellow curry my mom would make with canned peaches or mandarin oranges, it sounds kind of odd, but I always really liked it.

    Aw thank you for the gift! Love the message/lyrics you picked. It's adorable haha, thank you! I'll cherish it forever ❤️ I know it's not technically Christmas yet, but Merry Christmas my friend! I hope tomorrow is good to you 🫂
