Sleepy rambling ensues. I should get coffee.

holiday love meme 2019
my thread here

I don't think I've done a love meme in a while, or... even seen one, actually. The love would be appreciated if anyone feels like it though. ♥

In other news, I am apparently going to bake away my depression. I had a falter back into a weird brainplace last night, and then my brain decided to fixate on the desire to bake. And cook a little, but mostly bake.

It's kind of nice to be wanting to do something, though? Especially something away from the computer? I'm putting together a little list. Also I'm going to get food coloring and do colorful things because, well, why the hell not, it makes me smile. I'm gonna try and make colorful sunrise solstice cookies. We'll see how they go, but I have an idea. :D

Also at some point I was rambling to Bast about this and from that conversation:
1. I really want an enamel pin that says "I can't be sad, I'm baking".
But mostly, 2. I went on a tangent about opening a mental illness-themed bakery (Depression Doughnuts! Mental Illness Muffins! Craziness Cookies! Bipolar Brownies! Anxiety Apple Turnovers!) for... some reason, I don't remember how it started anymore. Anyway, the discussion of the hypothetical Bad Brains Bakery derailed into the idea of a much less ridiculous Bad Brains Baking Blog, experimenting with recipes and discussing things. I... am pretty sure this idea will remain a hypothetical too, but I still kind of like it.

The other thing I did this morning so far is finish watching Crazy Ex-Girlfriend season 1. I watched the first roughly 2/3rds in a binge when I was having a rocky night, so I kind of want to go back and rewatch a little closer, but I'm really enjoying it a lot more than I thought I would for a bit. And having more feelings than expected.

...But now I have to choose between that and Oxventures for work noise today, so it may have been a bad idea to continue another thing. XD

Aaaand now I should go work. And do dishes. And get food done. So away I go.

Oooh, that sounds neat! (Depending on the kind of dough, getting blue to show properly can be difficult -- mostly because egg yolks tint everything yellow-y to start -- but the idea will still get across.)

Making cookies that are blue/orange split also makes me think of Portal and Portal cookies, which is amusing to me.

Also, regardless of color, they'll be tasty, which is definitely an important aspect. :)
