I was at our local bakery recently and came across a loaf of bread quaintly branded as a “Peasant Loaf”. It was selling for over $6—the irony of this was not lost on me. 

In retaliation I have decided to post what I actually think of as a peasant loaf, but with the luxury of finely ground modern flour which is less likely to break your teeth because actual peasant loaf bread is like chewing rocks unless you’re soaking it in soup or stew. 

This is a very simple loaf, it requires no special tools and is a fairly forgiving dough for beginners to work with. Also it has the added bonus of looking like an expensive artisan loaf, but costs literal pennies to make once you invest in the basic ingredients.

So what do you need?

Ingredients:

  1. Plain flour (or wholewheat if you prefer)
  2. One sachet of active dry yeast.
  3. Salt.
  4. Water.

Tools:

  1. Bowl
  2. Mug

Prep and bake time total: 2 hours 45 minutes.

Yep, that’s it. You’ll notice that there’s no quantities listed up there, and that’s because you’ll be using the mug to measure everything. This helps to make sure your quantities are consistent, and means that so long as you have a mug and your ingredients, you can make bread. Heck you don’t even need a bowl, it just makes clean up easier.

Again I had Elusive Tumblr Dad help me take the photos so be warned this is going to be fairly image heavy under the cut 😀

im weirdly knowlagable in the history of soda i dont even drink soda why do i know so much about it

coke and pepsi taste different because coke was invent before refrigeration so it was designed to be drunk warm, while pepsi was designed after refrigeration was invented so it was designed to be drunk cold. as a result the tastes are different but if you drink pepsi cold and coke warm theyll taste the same.

Why the fuck do you know this

i honestly have no idea

coke’s recipe was originally green but the designers made it brown so it looked more like tea

Had they never seen green tea?

i dont even know if green tea was invented in 1886 but they wanted to make the public more open to eating the fizzy drink

Green tea was invented in the 13th century and made up 22% of the tea thrown off the ship in the Boston Tea Party 

alan i know about soda not green tea

Liminal: a book about a transgirl and faeries.

stiltfox:

Isabelle Vang wanted nothing more than to live her life, like any other girl; faeries make that very hard to do.

Isabelle, known to most as Izzy, is trying to settle into her life. She’s graduated high school, she’s got a part-time job in the next city over, her own apartment, and she wants nothing more than to just be herself. Things are going okay, until her godparents show up on her doorstep one night, and tell her she owes them, and they’re giving her a quest.

She’s ready to write it all off as a dream, and try to be normal, until her best friend, gone for the last 5 years, shows up on her doorstep, telling her to get ready to go to The Otherworld.

Can Izzy survive the machinations of a faerie world and still come out herself?


Liminal features Izzy (a bi trans WoC), her best friend Jules (an aro/ace Latina), and Robin (an intersex man!). There’s even a queer witch couple.

The story revolves around child ballads (also known as murder ballads!), faeries, and liminal places.


The author themselves is a nonbinary person! The author wishes to inform readers that despite best efforts to prove otherwise, they are not a fae creature. Maybe. Sometimes. They may be a jack’o’lantern child in disguise. It is also yet to be disproven.
