I think a lot about an episode of Finding Bigfoot where they played whale noises because they said a curious Bigfoot might come check it out and they were just out in god knows where The Woods Blvd. And they were like “these whale noises can be heard for a couple'a miles”

And I was just losing my mind thinking about the many times I’ve camped alone in the woods and how if I were just sitting around the campfire and through the usual din of coyotes and crickets I heard the slow and steady and distinct rise of whale calls

I’d go absolutely apeshit NOTHING would be scarier

New Cryptid: Forest Whales.  

Not enough fish in the sea anymore, whales and dolphins re-evolved legs and got back on land and now frolick through the woods of the PNW terrorzing campers and occasionally giving rides to Bigfoots.

Recoil-operated’s $12 traditional mead:

So one of the most common things I see on my Mead posts is “I’d love to do that, but I don’t have the stuff”

We’ll sit down and buckle up. Because I’m about to show you how to make a $12.56 traditional mead.

Here’s the recipe:

1 gallon Deer Park/spring water. You don’t want distilled.

3 lb or 32 fluid ounces honey.

One package of yeast.

a party balloon.

The cost total is $13.49, but you only need one pack of yeast. So -$0.90.

Let’s begin:

Everything together on a clean work surface, you will need a clean glass. And while not entirely necessary, a measuring cup will be handy.

Pour a cup of water for yourself and drink it. Hydration is important. Also this will allow you headspace.

Remove about ehhhhh, a quart or so of water to drink later.

Trust me. You’re going to want it

Wash your drinking cup and mixing about a teaspoon of honey.

You have two options for yeast, that bread yeast we bought, or professional brewer’s yeast.

They’re both the same price. You can get brewers yeast off of Amazon.

I already have brewer’s yeast, so I’m using brewer’s yeast

Stick that in that honey water.

Stick your honey in some hot water.

Go outside. Breath the free air. Know what it is… To truely live.

Enough of that bitch. Honey’s hot. Put it in the water.

Put the water in the honey too.

Shake the sin out of it.

Put that stuff back in the big bitch.

Shake the sh*t outta it.

Hydrate yourself with the water you removed earlier.

Shank a balloon with a pin.

Add your yeasty honey water.

Balloon it.

Label it.

If your trad mead says anything racist, or anything positive about Hitler. Straighten that sh*t out.

And there you go. $12 (.56) traditional mead. Stick it somewhere dark and leave it alone for a while.

Shake the hell outta it once a day for the first four days. Then let it be until it’s clear.

Update:

Boozification has begun.

Lots of spices and herbs make for nice additions as well.

Good post.

Who the hell are you to tell your sentient trad mead what to think?

I’m it’s creator. I have deemed racism to be sin.

Baking Brings Happiness

More of a story really, but I hope it brings you happiness. When I moved into my tiny one bedroom apartment in my little crappy building I learned the couple above me had a 5:30 am alarm. It had a vibrate function that travelled through the floor. For the first while it was good because they shut it off right away and I got back to sleep. Then one morning it was going off for fifteen minutes straight and kept me up. I went up there and asked them if they could disable it, and they thankfully did. The phone had fell and they didn’t look for it for a little while. A big squinting-but-looks-like-a-glare redhead woken out of dead sleep is a… Not so agreeable looking individual.

After I got home from work that day I made something (I think it was brownies) and gave them some with an apology for being tired and short with them. Turns out they’re pretty cool.

Next time we spoke I went up and asked for sugar - coming from a farm it wasn’t unusual to ask for ingredients if you were short a small amount. So they gave me some, I got to baking and brought them up some of the cookies I made.

After that it became a common thing; I baked too much, I brought them something. Come the new year one of them caught me in the hall and thanked me. It turns out they’d had a hard December and were really grateful for the food I was showing up with out of the blue. A little kindness is worth making too much baked goods.
