FOXES OMG FOXES IM GOING CRAZY. FOXES.
on a list of dumb shit i know:
the grass in the original shrek movie is not grass. its hair. they used hair textures for the grass bc the actual grass for some reason in their computer modelling programs would not behave like grass so they used hair textures colored green.

End of October and early November is an interesting time of year. Marking the end of the harvest season, October 31st - November 2nd share four separate holidays:
Halloween on the 31st;
All-Saints Day on the 1st; and
All-Souls Day and Samhain on the 2nd.
For such an interesting time of year, it’s no wonder that recipes have appeared across time to commemorate each occasion.
Traditionally baked to celebrate All-Souls Day, Soul Cakes are sugar-cookie-esque spiced cookies (or biscuits) that are made with none of the vanilla extract, baking powder, or baking soda that we’re used to seeing in modern recipes. Rather, they rely on their interesting blend of spices to treat your taste buds!
If you’re looking for something to keep the Halloween season going at school or work even after the holiday has passed, bring in these cookies to snack on!
Have a safe and happy Halloween/ All-Saints Day/ All-Souls Day/ Samhain everyone!
P.S: The fox in the picture is named Elphaba!

Prep: 10 mins Cook: 30 mins Overall: 40 mins
Ingredients*:
¼ cup + 3 tbsp. (100 g) unsalted butter, softened
½ cup (100 g) packed light brown sugar
2 egg yolks
2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
1 pinch saffron or ground turmeric (for colour)
1 tsp. (2 g) all-spice
½ tsp. mixed spice**
2 ½ tbs. (35 ml) milk
50 g raisins***
* Makes enough for 15-18 2-inch (5 cm) diameter cookies or 24-27 ~2.6-inch (6.6 cm) diameter cookies.
** Mixed spice is a spice blend that includes cinnamon, coriander seed, caraway, nutmeg, ginger, ground cloves, and caraway. I don’t have access to this blend so I added ¼ tsp. cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves individually to make ½ tsp..
*** I didn’t have any regular raisins so I substituted for golden raisins.
To start, preheat the oven to 360℉ (180℃) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Next, in a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar.
Then, whisk in the egg yolks.
Add flour, all-spice, mixed spice, and milk and stir until the dough holds together.
After, stir in the raisins until they are well distributed.
Turn out the dough onto a floured surface and roll it out to about o.6-inch (¼ cm) thickness. Then, cut the dough in circles using a cookie cutter.
Recombine and re-roll any dough scraps to get the most cookies possible!
Place the dough circles on the parchment-lined baking sheet - leaving space between each cookie. Cut a plus-sign (or cross) shape on each cookie (adding the raisin is optional).
Bake on the middle oven rack for 15-20 mins - rotating the pan halfway through - until they are golden brown. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes then transfer them to a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Overall, I would give this recipe a 5/5. The spices used in the cookies made for a different and delicious spin on the sugary cookies we’re used to nowadays. I had a lot of fun diving into this medieval British treat and hope to try more in the future!
Happy Halloween/All-Saints Day/ All-Souls Day/ Samhain!

hi i do a shitton of forestry work and lemme tell you!! wolves??? they are just Curious Bois who wanna Know What You’re Up To And When You’re Leaving. if they howl, howl back!! just move quietly and with confidence. they’ll circle you, but unless you’re a kid, near pups, or visibly aggressive (ie growling) they aren’t gonna attack you!!!!!
foxes won’t even approach they’ll just Vibe and then run away :( but they’re real sweet i love them
anyway the point is dont be afraid of wolves or foxes or bears or any of that shit. they’re real sweet
also u dont know true thrill until it’s pitch black and u cant see yr hand in front of yr face and yr circled by wolves and you hear em howl and u just tilt yr head back and take a couple deep breaths and howl back and get in a competition and afterwards you Know they respect u bc u respect them!!!!! good bois
Wild good boys

SANJI FOX
Last night I thought, what would happen if I put two of my favorite things together? Sanji and foxes immediately came to mind, and well, there it is. Do you want it to be an AU or at least its backstory?

goofy foxes i doodled on since i slept in and sorta skipped school- (btw doodles not related to my last post btw im just bored and i found cute images of foxes :P)
my fav sound in the world when i was younger was listening to my ferrets go dook dook dook! as they did their little play fighting
just found out that stoats hunt twice the size of them like rabbits by aggressively and eccentrically dancing around it with their little slinky rigatoni bodies so it can confuse the absolute fuck out of its prey until it can get close enough to jump on its back like some shadow of the colossus shit and take it down
