I got my degree, I'm doctor in biological sciences!
My thesis was appreciated, I got the maximum amount of points I could receive plus one more, I got proclaimed with 105/110.
Here's some stuff I prepared for the party: with Cyn, my love, we baked some goodies.
I prepared a couple doughs, one for the focaccia di Recco. I used a standardized puffing time, they come from the first brick of ingredients (flour, water, oil, yeast and salt).

The other one was treated differently, to become a pizza. Half pepperoni, half with ham.

Under my s/o's supervision, we cooked some ragù and then assembled a huge slab of lasagnas as well! The ragù was a good bolognese ragù.

Everything made from scratch, except for the lasagnas pasta, which was a refrigerated pre-made.
In the right, lower corner, there's the magic brownies we baked together, after infusing butter with the Herb.
For those not consuming hemp, we had some Chianti and Barnaresco di Roncaglia.
With family and friends, we engaged some fun activities, we played a little GDR game, "Everyone is John". Laughter and madness LMAO.

AU where Mr. D claiming to be Percy’s dad accidentally counts as Claiming according to Greek god law or whatever and now all the other gods legitimacy believe Percy is his son, but if Mr. D corrects it, he has to explain to Zeus why he pretended he was Percy’s dad so now he’s like “YEP ol’ Perry Johansson is MY child wowie just look at the little fry, you have your mother’s eyes. Please stop standing next to water or you will blow my cover”
Meanwhile Poseidon is just standing off to the side like “how on earth did I dodge THAT bullet”

the fact Crowley knows Aziraphale's "something's wrong" voice implies that Aziraphale has called him for things being "wrong" that aren't, presumably, world-ending catastrophes. like the hinges on his bookshop doors being a bit squeaky. or a customer that won't leave. or any number of things he doesn't need Crowley to fix for him but are a convenient excuse to call him and pout down the phone until he rushes over and rescues him

You know how sometimes you just have to get through November, and to do it you need one particular demon with a bottle of wine. Happy December everyone I guess!

what if in his early robin days when Alfred insisted he come up to the manor Tim got lost exploring and wandered into the library. what if while Tim was just browsing he turns the corner and runs into bruce towering over him. what if bruce absolutely lost it at Tim and told him to get out and stay OUT of the library (the library was Jason’s favorite room). what if even after jason comes back tim avoids the library like a plague. what if jason found out bruce basically banned Tim from reading(drama queen) and gets PISSED. What if he tore into bruce about it who didn’t even remember the whole encounter until now. what if what if what if

where is my wife
Amazon review on this Morrow edition of "Good Omens" by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett I found this morning that left me laughing in tears right from the title.
... Actually, in hindsight, having seen the ineffable divorce™️ of Season 2, the fact that the only thing left on the cover is his glass of wine makes me so sad. It's like Crowley, having now been through all that, has left his glass of wine in the bookshop and is refusing to come back since Aziraphale is gone. Muriel doesn't really want to touch what Crowley left in the hopes he will be back soon and maybe still want his glass of "whine", whatever that is. He seemed sad last time they saw him, so that's probably what they meant by "whine".
.... Wait a minute though, did Aziraphale write this review?!? "WHERE IS MY WIFE?" ?!?!?
Okay it's time to tag him, this has gone off the rails and so have I. @neil-gaiman please explain. Thank you. (Love your work, actually. But also... What is going on here.)
Update, not even 10 hours after I originally posted this: Neil himself liked the post. I'm freaking out a normal amount about it.
Tumblr media
PS: here's a lil thank you post for all the notes I'm getting, holy hell!!!

What makes a wine a Good Wine?
Tumblr media
While most of us know that wine is made from grapes, there’s a lot more to it than that. Have you ever wondered what makes one wine different from another? We’re here to help! Let’s take a look at all the characteristics that make up your favorite vino.
Wine Characteristics
The Grapes: The type of grape used in the winemaking process is essential for producing different styles and flavors of wine. For example, Cabernet Sauvignon is a full-bodied red wine with dark fruit flavors and tannins, while Pinot Grigio produces light white wines with citrus flavors. There are actually over 10,000 varieties of grapes used in winemaking!
The Region: Where the grapes are grown affects the flavor profile as well. Certain climates produce sweeter grapes, while others create grapes with more acidic notes. This is why some wines have notes of tropical fruit while others offer earthy tones — it all depends on where the grapes were grown!
Aroma or Bouquet: The smell of a wine strongly affects its taste and should be pleasurable; an off-putting scent such as vinegar or rotten eggs means something has gone wrong in either production or storage. Common aromas include berries, apples, and various spices such as cinnamon and clove.
Tannins: Generally speaking, tannins are responsible for giving wines their structure and adding depth and complexity to their flavors. Tannins also give rise to astringency (or drying sensation) on the tongue upon contact with human saliva — think black tea or unripe fruit skins — which can be desirable if balanced properly with other components present in the wine, like acidity or sweetness.
Acidity & Balance: Acidity gives a “zippy” characteristic that provides freshness and helps balance out fuller body styles by cutting through them like citrus juice on steak. Too much acidity makes for an unpleasant drinking experience, while too little will flatten out flavors leaving wines dull and lackluster in taste profile. A quality white wine should have enough acidity so that when tasted at room temperature (after swirling around your mouth), there is still some refreshing tartness left on the lips afterward!
Body & Texture: When people refer to ‘body,’ they usually mean full-bodied wines — those heavier ones typically made with red grapes, which contain more tannin than whites do (which tend towards being lighter-bodied). Texture refers to how smooth/coarse/gritty etcetera one feels during consumption; coarse textures found when tasting young red wines may be attributed due both high tannin content AND low concentrations of certain minerals necessary for softening those same nasty little particles!
The Winemaker’s Touch: Every winemaker has their own unique style, which also contributes to how each bottle tastes. Some use oak barrels for aging their wines which adds a smoky flavor, or they might add yeast to give the wine some carbonation. The winemaker also determines when to pick and press the grapes and how long they should ferment before bottling. All these decisions will affect the final product, so no two bottles will taste exactly alike!
Whether you prefer red or white, sweet or dry, there are countless factors that go into creating each glass of vino. From climate and region to type of grape, every bottle has its own unique flavor profile thanks to these characteristics. So next time you pour yourself a glass, take some time to appreciate all the hard work (and science!) that went into making it possible! Cheers!
