Made cookies yesterday, so that was good. I like baking, but I can't do it as often as I'd like.

The caption sells it for me, the "pretty annoyed about it"

Still playing Wazhack solo, and Stardew Valley (heavily modded) with my sibling. I have no idea when Orna came out, but we're all trying that because Pokémon GO got more annoying in general.

Crimson Curse was always the one that gave me trouble.

But I also modded the game to make it a bit easier on myself!

For some reason my phone drifts like mad when I place it next to my wifi boxen. I've hatched so many eggs as my character just fucking charges around town. Good luck, cars! I obey no road rules!

Chocolate Peppermint Crinkle Cookies

Ingredients

1 and 1/2 cups of flour

2/3rds cup of cocoa powder

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/4th teaspoon salt

1/2 cup of softened butter (One American stick)

3/4ths cup white sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar

3 eggs

1 teaspoon peppermint extract

Powdered sugar for rolling the cookies in

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350F/175C

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

Using a mixer (hand or stand), cream together both sugars and butter for a minute. Add and incorporate one egg at a time then add in the peppermint.

Turn speed to low and add in flour mixture slowly until a sticky dough is formed.

Chill dough in freezer for 10 minutes.

Sift powdered sugar into a bowl and add a heaping teaspoon sized ball of dough, rolling lightly to coat in sugar so you are able to roll it in your hands to make in a ball. Roll again in powdered sugar to coat more.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place 12 coated dough balls on each tray.

Cook, one sheet at a time for 11 minutes.

Cool for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire tray.

Okay, so that's exactly how it's written.

My changes. I sift the flour and cocoa powder. Otherwise lumps can be visible. I also don't put it in the freezer, I put it in the fridge for a few hours or even overnight. The firmer the dough the easier it is to roll. I roll the dough in my hands then roll it in the powdered sugar. I didn't find the two rolls necessary. I also cook for around 13 minutes, maybe my cookies are larger? Maybe I just like a firmer center.

When I'm home, I'll get you the recipe!

My memory says 3 eggs. That's probably not so helpful! XD

I absolutely loved this series. Everyone was really good! I could understand Rosie fine though. Years of practice with my husband who has cerebral palsy as well.

It's funny, because he couldn't understand her well at all. Guess if you're speaking you don't hear your own impediment.

Very simple. Sometimes I just want light fluffy easy bread!

A favorite of mine growing up. I loved trying to make water worthy boats. They were terrifying boats.

Deadlands is an RPG originally published in 1993. It's been through a few iterations and currently is under Savage Worlds rules, I think.

This very old book is from the original run.

What happens if the supernatural comes back to the world during the American Civil War? Well you get gunslingers dealing with hucksters, people who make deals with demons to sling magic and Blessed running around trying to save the world with Mad scientists makings thing better (or far worse) while all dealing with blood thirsty tumbleweeds (tumblebleeds) and the dealing with the Reckoners, unknown True Evils.

The original system was its own creation, using a deck of cards including 2 jokers and multiple types of dice, it was an exciting system. Eventually the old system was replaced a free times and it's currently published under Savage Rules.

I can only talk on the original system, quite liking the use of decks of cards for initiative and other uses. Combat could be quite slow, but it is a very flavorful system.

This is a bad photo, but it's the book from our shelf!

Personally I'd go with Independence Day if I had to pick a movie that felt the most 90s.

My phone seems to inaccurately count steps, and I'm worried that could be a problem? It gives me too many steps. I counted how many steps it takes to walk from one room to another, which is around 12 - 16 steps. The app routinely gives me over 25 steps though! I'm hoping this won't be an issue? I might be over thinking.
