Posted in Hobbies! What do YOU do for funsies? Posted 3 years ago
I work 12 hours a day, so time for hobbies is pretty limited

My main thing is taking care of reptiles! I have a blue tongue skink and a ball python. I'm trying to make their large enclosures bioactive, so that includes some isopod and plant care, as well! Love serpadesigns but damn, does he make that stuff look more simple than it is! Lmao
Any tips for a newbie with plants would be much appreciated!

I love to draw and paint. Do more traditional these days but sloooowly getting back into digital. Was thinking of making a request thread for quick sketches of OCs and avatars :)

Lots of video games. Mostly Nintendo games and a ton of Elder Scrolls Online, and Stardew Valleybut I like a lot. I need more Steam friends!

Last I'll mention, I LOVE to cook. I barbecue often, rain or shine lol; I bake bread when I have a long weekend but that's pretty scarce cuz of work. Recipes for broke boyz would be appreciated haha

@0v7: My husband doesn't like sushi, so it's hard for me to get some REAL good stuff at a dedicated place lmao. Sounds greaaat, hope you enjoyed! What type of rolls did ya get?
Ended up being too rainy to grill, don't got a canopy at this place atm :V Had to cook inside, but was still good. A bacon cheeseburger has never wronged me before lol.

I'm used to cooking for entire families, so dishes I make are usually for... 4-10 people, it's wild haha. Would love to see the recipe, if you find it! Need to add variety to my cooking, especially if we gotta stay in for meals more.

I blind baked the dough on its own for a while, gave it a stable base and some grill marks. While still hot, I let everyone pick their toppings, I would add it on for them in the case of the kids (or anyone scared of the heat/fire lol), and I would close the grill and all the vents to make it a sort of hot, smoky oven until toppings are cooked, cheese is melted, and dough is done throughout. Came out better than expected! Was a fun way to get everyone involved in dinner, too.

I was SO close to setting up a dream address buuuut, think I messed up an incline and the placement of my house lmfao. Gotta redo so much now TvT
No rush at all, man. I get how easy it is to start 1,000 things then need to clean them up LMFAO this game will have me hooked forever, i swear

Welcome to Voltra! Hope you enjoy yourself :)

@0v7: Don't blame you, dude. KFC is the bomb. Love those bowls stuffed with potatoes, chicken, cheese, and corn. Damn, I got munchies lol
Grilling burgers tonight just to try and curb a fast food craving tbh. Shit is stronggg

The noodles sound delicious, don't think I've ever tried anything like that. Any meal done in five minutes already awesome. Did it make for good leftovers, too? Would be good stuff to bring for work lunches.

We use a lot of masa, beans, and chilis, so I've probably passed by it a thousand times lol just never thought to try it out. Until now >:)
I've made personal pizzas on the grill before, that was fun. Might get drunk and fire it up to make a big ass taco pizza this time around

Six pieces is still a good chunk! Nice job, man. That's very cool. A list is a good route to go but I don't mind grabbing dupes. Some fake art pieces are actually pretty cool looking on their own, too lol.

@Bioshock: No, can't play as those ones lol. Would be pretty funny if you could. Though, there's a lot you can do with character customization ;0

I'm just getting back into RP, man. Makes it a little easier to not have to visualize everything, like using miniatures in DnD, you know where your character is and what the setting looks like.
Blows my mind how big of a crowd RPs in Final Fantasy, it's pretty cool to see it so widely accepted. Least from the servers I've seen lol.

Being chased like that would give me a heart attack. Love scary games but damn, takes me a while to play them just because of how much I jump lmfaooo
I've seen some bigger discord servers arrange full matches but like, I know I'm gonna have to join a rando eventually hah
Posted in Anyone play ESO? Posted 3 years ago
@Bioshock: They do talk about the different khajiit species a little bit! You see all kinds of them roaming around as townsfolk and the like. It is pretty funny watching a full on house cat talk looking npc talk and do magic, though lol.
Lot of action in that zone, too. Dragons as world bosses and necromancy as a class has to be one of the wildest combos I've ever heard, but it's great fun.

Can still do so much with the free trial, I was surprised. I hate spending money on a sub just to play it for a couple days, it's real generous to be able to get a feel for a game before purchase.
I like fishing most while watching TV or listening to music. Like to go with the flow, no rush lol. Been a great way to pass time and have a plot/setting while roleplaying, too. I just think it's neat :)

Phasmophobia looks like a wild ride lol. Last survival horror I played was Outlast and I loved it, might have to look into this one
I don't usually play horror games alone, either. I can act brave as hell if my husband's there, though >:')
I didnthe same with Among Us lmao, been too shy to join random matches, though

@0v7: Fried foods just taste and feel so much better when they're fresh homemade. I can't resist anything crunchy and salty lmao. Feel like tofu would be no different
Sesame oil is strong but omg it's so tasty. I put it in noodles a lot and it reallyyy kicks it up a notch. Stir fries are good with it, too!

Seems like a good base to put on mexican styled foods. Great blend of herbs and spices, man. Gotta see if i can find some next time we're out for groceries.
Ooooh, I gotta ask tho.... Do you like taco pizza? Lol

My husband is the mayor, I just live there and party hard :P lmao.
Redd's finally blessed u 👏 bet your museum is gonna be the coolest on the block now, bud. Get any good art pieces?

I know the darkness is supposed to be for "immersion" or whatever but I'm not trying to play a blindness simulator smh

Nexus usually has great stuff, tho I've only ever looked for skyrim. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! Can't wait to try this game out haha

Finally freeee. Work was wild lol.
Good morning, y'all
Posted in "Life Itself" | ACNH thread Posted 3 years ago
@0v7: Fresher is usually better, but I get suuuper bummed when food doesn't keep good for long :(
I honestly never thought of frying tofu but wow, that sounds like a game changer lol.
I cook most of my meats in a similar marinade/glaze tbh! Very good stuff ;0 Can never go wrong with a solid bbq sauce too haha

I've never heard of sazon goya before. Think I need to pick some up, that looks SO convenient. Read the ingredient list, too. Can only imagine what it tastes like but I want it!!

Oh, man I know the feeling. I throw so much junk in my storage and in front of my husband's house just because my pockets are full. It's a nightmare when either one of us doesn't hop on for a while, TRASH. EVERYWHERE. Lmao

I know it's supposed to be dark but damn... I'm a blind mf lol. Need the extra light to not run into walls and shit smh

Those are all solid mods. So sweet there's a mod out there to make the game more diverse, really digging that one. And an NPC map? Genius, wish more games had it lol
Posted in Anyone play ESO? Posted 3 years ago
@Bioshock: I'll always miss the native Dunmer's attitudes lol. I wish the NPCs still had that much sass. No one's all that rude in ESO, as far as I can remember, unfortunately.
I find the most interesting places are ones we haven't visited in the main games. Elsweyr and Murkmire are great zones, both lorewise and setting-wise.

Oh yeah, I'm still rocking out on the free trial version lol. Would prefer to only pay for one game at a time, so I've been taking FF reallyyyy slow. Plus, I love fishing in games SO much. The minute I was able to, I stopped just about every other quest I had to start being a fisherman lmfaooo. I need to do my story quests SO BAD ;v;
It's a gorgeous game, though and I'm planning on grinding some levels out with my husband once I'm off of work!

I got a lot to learn with that game but I'm hoping it'll all start clicking real soon haha

What other games are you into, atm? :0
Posted in "Life Itself" | ACNH thread Posted 3 years ago
@0v7: Sucks to not have the convenience of someone else making it, but hey, least you know what you like! Should lmk how you make tofu, might change my mind about it lol, I've never found any that I've liked
I haven't had shrimp tacos in forever!! That sounds delicious. When my husband made taco seasoning for beans and rice, I asked him how he did it. All the doofus said was "I put cumin and cilantro" lmfaoooo

We were trying to build a little farmer's market type area as a DIY/craft station! Would love to see your market and cafe, that sounds super cute, man.

I haven't heard of any compatibility issues! Might be a little hard to see on a tinier screen, is all haha. The game is SUPER dark

What mods are you running on stardew, if you don't mind me asking? Thinking of getting it when I get off tbh lol. Sorry for the late reply btw, I'm at work and my shifts are 12 hours long TvT

Awesome stuff, bud. Keep up the good work
