Hello, 👋

I wake up, I brush my teeth, I make my breakfast and I drink my morning tea with one teaspoon of honey and one teaspoon of lemon, I take my meds and I make my coffee, what a beautiful day to be alive

I open tumblr and its another fucking category 5 spn event again

Sorry I didn't respond to your text. I saw it while reading about the same two idiots falling in love again. I decided to respond when I was done reading but then a 200K slow burn fic caught my eye. I forgot I had a phone for a while.

Tag your otp 🤣🤣🤣

This is them I think

Tips for writing those gala scenes, from someone who goes to them occasionally:

Generally you unbutton and re-button a suit coat when you sit down and stand up.

You’re supposed to hold wine or champagne glasses by the stem to avoid warming up the liquid inside. A character out of their depth might hold the glass around the sides instead.

When rich/important people forget your name and they’re drunk, they usually just tell you that they don’t remember or completely skip over any opportunity to use your name so they don’t look silly.

A good way to indicate you don’t want to shake someone’s hand at an event is to hold a drink in your right hand (and if you’re a woman, a purse in the other so you definitely can’t shift the glass to another hand and then shake)

Americans who still kiss cheeks as a welcome generally don’t press lips to cheeks, it’s more of a touch of cheek to cheek or even a hover (these days, mostly to avoid smudging a woman’s makeup)

The distinctions between dress codes (black tie, cocktail, etc) are very intricate but obvious to those who know how to look. If you wear a short skirt to a black tie event for example, people would clock that instantly even if the dress itself was very formal. Same thing goes for certain articles of men’s clothing.

Open bars / cash bars at events usually carry limited options. They’re meant to serve lots of people very quickly, so nobody is getting a cosmo or a Manhattan etc.

Members of the press generally aren’t allowed to freely circulate at nicer galas/events without a very good reason. When they do, they need to identify themselves before talking with someone.

hc: thank you, dianxia, for this blessing... xl: san lang, why are you praying, i'm right here?

Raspberry Blondies

Ingredients

1 cup dairy-free salted butter, melted

1 ¾ cup granulated sugar

1 large egg, room temperature

1 large egg yolk, room temperature

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

½ teaspoon almond extract

2 cups all-purpose flour *can be substituted with gluten-free 1:1 baking blend

2 teaspoon coarse sea salt

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 cup dairy-free white chocolate chips

½ cup almonds, chopped

1 ½ cups fresh or frozen raspberries

optional: extra white chocolate chips for drizzle

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350ºF degrees and prepare a 9×13-inch pan with non-stick baking spray and parchment paper.

In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment combine the melted butter and sugar on high and mix for 2 minutes.

Add in the egg, egg yolk, vanilla extract, and almond extract and mix on high for another 2 minutes.

Mix in the flour, salt, and baking powder until just combined.

Fold in the white chocolate chips and chopped almonds until just combined.

Gently fold in the fresh or frozen raspberries until just combined. Be careful not to overmix or the raspberries will begin to break apart.

Bake for approx 30-35 minutes or until the edges are a light golden brown and the very center appears just slightly under-baked.

Let fully cool in the baking tray. Once cool remove the raspberry blondies and slice them into 24 servings.

Melt and drizzle white chocolate over the top of the fully cooled blondies if desired. Enjoy!

Store leftover blondies in an airtight container for up to 7 days at room temperature.

It's my 1 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳

I can’t believe I’ve been terrorizing this website for one whole year. I look forward to haunting you all in the future 😌🙏
