I feel this so hard lol. I have never returned to smoking but vaping was such a ‘cleaner’ way to get a nic high. I tell myself that nicotine has power over me and if someone put a vape in front of me I’d hit it in a heartbeat

 

For starters, I present femininely because that’s just my base model (afab) and I’m quite literally too poor and too busy working to do all of the modifications I want on my body. I also find the convenience of looking cis does help me get through my tougher work days.

While I appreciate those who know of my identity using the proper pronouns to refer to me, it stings just a tiny bit every time I get misgendered. I get it. I just ‘don’t look the part.’

It feels like I’m at an impasse but I do want to put in the work to look the way I want to. I just need some time and a good mindset to get things started. I just want my body to feel mine again.

To be fair, my reference only was my very American husband who told me that the plate feels very nostalgic to him lol

Thank you! I was a bit lazy so I just threw on olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, a little bit of paprika and chili powder, and salt and pepper

 

Baked potatoes topped with crumble and a cheesy white sauce, baked beans (fresh from the microwave), and baked asparagus. This was my second attempt baking potatoes and asparagus and I loved it!

Fried rice is as simple as it can be but I threw mine together based on what’s in the fridge and pantry. There’s tofu, carrots, broccoli, mushrooms, onion, garlic, and brown rice. The sauce/seasoning is soy sauce, peanut butter, gochujang, sesame oil, and a clove of minced garlic. Topped it with green onions, kinchi, and sesame seeds

 

Chunky everything because I was too lazy to dice lol

It could be because the people in her life (especially the masculine figures) aren’t the type to actually do chores without the initial request/push by another person. It’s some kind of shock and it could be seen as an attractive trait. Same feeling I got when I entered a healthy relationship with someone who’s not a slob. Doing chores is bare minimum though

Straight into a dry hot pan works pretty well too! I found that the umami flavor is better when oil is added after they’ve shrunk

 
 

Made the potato-carrot mac and cheese sauce, tofu-egg salad, homemade chickwheat deli slices. Quick assembly! Already shared this with the Discord crowd lol

Noodles and Wontons (lemmy.world)

Handmade noodles and tofu veggie wontons. Took me too much time but it was worth it! Broth had peanut butter, sesame oil, and soy sauce.

Edit: Here are the recipes I got each soup item from:

  1. Noodles - only used the noodle recipe
  2. Broth - added and subtracted items because I didn’t have all the ingredients from the recipe
  3. Wonton filling - I used the filling recipe for this one. If you don’t have time for making your own wrappers, wontons are fine too. I recommend a pastry brush to help apply the water on the edges for sealing.

~50 wontons took me 3-4 hours to make. The noodles takes 2.5 hours and the broth takes about 5 minutes of prep.

Made the burgers from cooked and blended soy chunks. Made the mung egg too.

edit: changed the name
