Things I've eaten since shelter-in-place that had sell-by dates from 2019 that weren't even canned:

- Justin's [tm] brand Classic Cashew Butter (autumn of 2019 iirc, but it was unopened)

- jar of coconut oil that I've been cooking with since lockdown began (June 2019, opened)

- a really good-ass bagel I found in the freezer (March 2019!)

Sell-by dates are an even bigger lie than I thought and when I have kids I'm going to be insufferable to them about this.

I made the fritters again just now, and they really hit the spot. I think I got into one of those things where you don't realize how hungry you are because the days have no structure. Saving the rest of the batter (is that what you call it? fritter batter? that's terrible) for later when I have more veggies ready to go with it. The brussels sprouts in the freezer are calling to me, but that'll be a bit of a time investment to do it right.


Neighborhood behavior update: At least 50% of the people who walk past my fence while I'm sitting out on the porch now wave and say hello. I think we've hit the tipping point for people realizing that it's good for our collective mental health to do so.

I did a little work on a Reddie WIP and used up a can of black-eyed peas on some nice fritters.

In your own space, create a fanwork. Make a podfic, an icon, a sketch, a meta, or a rec list. Arts and crafts. Cross stitch. Draft an essay about a particular medium. Put together a picspam or a fanmix. Write a review of book you love, a ship manifesto, a you-should-be-listening-to-this-band essay. Create something.

I cross-posted this to tumblr and [livejournal.com profile] allthesuits, but forgot to also link it here. In the spirit of creating something outside one's usual comfort zone, I posted a fan recipe!

I present to you Luke Skywalker's greenish island milk of loneliness, in the form of an invigorating vegan latte:

(Yes, I did actually make and drink this, and it tastes fine. I mean, it's just a nice matcha latte recipe from a hip food blog with a little spin of Skywalker Extra-ness. You can make it as sweet as you want. I'm surprised some hip barista at one of those places where they already put blue spirulina in drinks isn't selling a Luke Skywalker Special along these lines already.) (Someone on tumblr tagged it with "food anti-porn" and I might have taken it a little personally)

2 out of 5 of poll respondents so far have expressed a preference for some posts about food. I apologize for not being very good at taking pictures of food, but here is a food:
