darchildre: a cup of tea.  text: "tea break" (tea break)
Today, I am making a lemon cake because a) I love lemon cake and b) fuck everything else in the world. It is this cake, I made it in my pain de mie pan (because square and loaf is objectively the best shape of cake), it has the zest and juice of SEVEN GODDAMN LEMONS in it, and there is both a lemon soaking syrup and a lemon glaze.

Fucker better be actually lemony, is what I'm saying. I have made a lot of lemon cakes in my life and a lot of them have come out dry and unacceptably bland, but I have high hopes for this one. (And if it disappoints me, I will burn down the world.)

Last week fucking sucked, mood-wise, and this weekend has continued to be Not Great. I can only assume that the week to come will be similar but at least I will have lemon cake to console me.

One of the best things about Ironsworn is that the enemies don't have stats at all beyond a threat rating. So you can definitely use the example monsters/enemies listed in the book or, instead, you can do what I did this afternoon and decide that the creature at the center of my current quest who has been stealing people from a nearby village is some kind of giant spectral ghost bear that can't be killed by normal weapons because it hid its heart in a cursed tree. As you do.
