Additive-Free Homemade Chocolate Milk
Ingredients:
1 cup milk (dairy or unsweetened non-dairy milk)
2 tbsp cocoa powder
1-2 tbsp sweetener of choice (maple syrup, honey, or sugar)
1/4 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Pinch of salt
Instructions:
Add all ingredients to a jar or bottle with a tight-fitting lid. Shake vigorously for 30-60 seconds until fully combined and frothy.
Taste and adjust sweetener if desired.
Serve chilled or over ice.
Suggestions:
Use high-quality cocoa powder for the best flavor. Dutch-processed cocoa will give a richer, darker chocolate taste.
For a thicker, richer texture, blend all ingredients together in a blender instead of shaking.Add a tablespoon of melted butter or coconut oil for extra richness.Substitute some of the milk with strong brewed coffee or espresso for a mocha flavor. Top with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg.Make it into a milkshake by blending with ice cream or frozen yogurt. This recipe can be doubled or tripled as needed. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days, shaking well before serving.

✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* Hi there! *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧
Going to bed can be reeeeally hard for me, and I know it’s hard for a lot of other regressors too. One thing that really helps for me is a soothing drink in a sippy or bottle! Soooo- here are some yummy bedtime milk recipes!
Unfortunately I don’t have a cg to make these, but if you have one feel free to share this list with them. If not, that’s okay too! I make these myself all the time, just remember to ALWAYS be careful with hot tools and liquids in the kitchen. <3
also, if you can’t have dairy (like me!) just replace these with whatever milk alternative you use. I use soy milk and it’s yummy! :P
also-also, most of these recipes reference using a sippy or bottle. However, if you don’t have or don’t use those, they taste just as good in a mug!
Onto the recipes!
⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚Classic Angel Milk˚୨୧⋆｡˚ ⋆
Angel milk is a classic for regressors, and it’s so easy to make! It’s also a great base for other recipes. You can add a little bit of cinnamon or nutmeg too if you’d like!
Ingredients:
Milk
Sugar
Vanilla extract
Steps:
Fill your sippy or bottle with milk.
Add one to three tablespoons of sugar, it’s up to taste!
Add a little splash of vanilla extract. You only need a tiny bit, it’s very strong!
Microwave until warm!
⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚Chamomile Angel Milk˚୨୧⋆｡˚ ⋆
This one is my own recipe! Chamomile is an herb that naturally helps our bodies get sleepy, and it smells comforting to me. Be careful though, because this one uses hot water!
note: you can replace the chamomile with other herbal teas for different uses! this recipe with ginger tea is great for littles with upset tummies.
Ingredients:
Water
Chamomile tea bag
Milk
Sugar (or honey)
Vanilla extract
Steps:
Boil some water. Careful, it’s hot!
Carefully pour about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of hot water into a mug, and place a single chamomile tea bag into that water. Cover with a plate and let steep for about 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, remove the tea bag and squeeze out the extra liquid (use a fork if it’s too hot). Pour the super strong tea into the bottom of your bottle or sippy.
Add milk to the tea and fill up the bottle, and then follow steps 2-4 of the angel milk recipe!
⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚Caramel Milk˚୨୧⋆｡˚ ⋆
This one might require a caregiver’s help! If you don’t have a caregiver just be very careful, maybe use oven mitts and don’t do this if you’re feeling extra tiny.
Ingredients:
2 cups milk
3-4 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon butter
Steps:
Add the sugar and butter to a small pan over medium heat. As the butter melts, stir it to combine with the sugar.
Microwave the milk until it’s warm. Don’t add it yet though!
Caramelize the sugar: cook to a nice amber color. Be careful not to let it burn! If you want the caramel flavor to be less intense just cook it to a slightly lighter color than amber.
When the sugar is ready, remove it from heat.
Add your milk in a steady stream as you stir. The sugar will seize up and there will be sizzling, but keep stirring.
Place back on stovetop over low heat. Make sure you don't boil the milk!
Keep stirring until all of the caramelized sugar is melted into the milk.
Pour your milk! Any leftover milk can go in the fridge.
⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚Banana Milk˚୨୧⋆｡˚ ⋆
This one is a cold drink, and using the blender might be dangerous if you’re feeling too tiny!
Ingredients:
1 ripe banana, sliced or broken into pieces
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon maple syrup, honey, or sugar
A small drop of vanilla extract
Steps:
Put all ingredients into a blender and combine until smooth. That’s it! If you have sensory issues like me you can pour it through a strainer to make sure it’s completely smooth, but it’s usually fine. Serve immediately!
⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚Now for the extra tiny ones˚୨୧⋆｡˚ ⋆
Besides the angel milk, several of these can be kind of risky to do on your own! I definitely know that when I’m feeling extra small, working with hot stuff or appliances can be dangerous. Luckily, if angel milk gets boring, Nesquik comes to the rescue!
I just fill up my sippy and add some of the Nesquik (or any other milk flavoring powder) and then shake it up! The chocolate is good hot or cold. My favorite is probably the banana though, although it’s hard to find. The strawberry is good too!
Stay safe little ones, and sweet dreams! If you drink any of these before bed, try to brush your teeths before you go to sleep if possible. <3

for the one thing i want to know about you: share your favorite comfort dish/recipe! 💕
hi ash!!!!!! this got long bc i did in fact include a recipe. if any of you try it pls let me know if you like it!!!! and if you don't like it i don't want to hear about it :)
for comfort dish honestly some of my favorite comfort food is just rice, beans, mashed potatoes, and scrambled eggs!! i love it. OR rice, beans, farofa de ovo (farofa is fried mandioc flour and we eat it w everything in brasil lol and farofa de ovo is just that but mixed with scrambled eggs) and french fries. you will notice these are basically the same dish. what can i say it never fails!!!
also my go to sweet is almost always brigadeiro de colher because i'm basic and brazilian and it always makes me happy. for that you will need:
1 can of condensed milk
1 tablespoon-ish of nescau (nesquik chocolate powder in the states i believe. whatever chocolate powder you use to make choccy milk works.)
1 tablespoon-ish of cocoa powder if you don't want your brigadeiro to be so sweet all your teeth rot
you can do 2 tbs of nescau if you want it really sweet. i mean it's already really sweet but like really really sweet.
but not of cocoa powder. 2 tbs of cocoa powder makes it taste weird lol.
about a spoonful of butter
a splash of creme de leite. you add this because you don't want it to get too hard. when you're making it for birthday parties you make it thick enough to roll into a little fudge ball, but i like to fill a bowl with it and eat it with a spoon while i watch the parent trap again. the creme de leite makes it so it can't get that hard! (i believe this is media crema in the usa. i will be attaching pictures.)
this ^
how to prepare:
in a medium sized pot, combine condensed milk, nescau, cocoa powder, and butter. do not add the creme de leite yet.
stir. with a wooden spoon. this is not optional. (/j lol this is just because everyone makes this with a wooden spoon and burning ur tongue licking the scalding boiling hot brigadeiro off a wooden spoon as a child is a core memory for all of us)
when it starts to bubble, add the creme de leite
stir some more
make sure you're scraping the edges and the bottom of the pot so it doesn't burn!!!
once it's all really well combined and about the consistency of. idfk. thick icing maybe? i don't eat american sweets. thick enough to eat with a spoon.
like this. though truthfully this is already a little too thick for my tastes but aim for this!!
let it cool off
or don't. as i said, burning ur tongue is a part of the experience.
eat :)
i like to eat this watching a movie with popcorn and i will mix my popcorn with my brigadeiro and it is so yum!
ask me anything

hello, wanted ask, possible make formula recipe without blender? can't buy one but really want try it
Oh hi! It depends on what your goal is.
---------
If you're an ARFID kiddo,
I'd really really recommend getting a blender. If you have a Facebook, look for your local Buy Nothing group -- this is your best shot at getting one for free. If you're not, try looking at your local thrift store. (Not Salvation Army; they use their money in very un-cool ways). If you have a local Habitat for Humanity Re-store, maybe they'd even be able to get you a really good deal on one if you explain your situation.
The reason I really recommend getting a blender is that you can use it to do a LOT of heavy lifting in terms of sneaking nutrition.
If you like soups, try blending mild, cooked veggies into the broth.
If you bake, try adding purees into your batters
If you like smoothies, make fruit smoothies regularly
There are lots more ideas than that, but those are a few basic ones. If you want, I can email you some cookbook pdfs along the lines above, if you DM me your email address.
Keep in mind that frozen fruit and veggies are often even more nutritionally dense than the fresh produce on the shelves, and tends to be cheaper per ounce.
Some states will even allow you to use SNAP/EBT at farmer's markets, and if you have a freezer, you can get really inexpensive stuff and let it last for a long time. Sometimes farmers will even let you take produce for free if you help them put their stuff away at the end of the day.
--------
If you're just interested in formula for baby regression reasons, read on:
You can put some milk in a jar with a serving of "carnation instant breakfast" and shake shake shake! Bunny act,ually likes making a faux Starbucks drink using coffee, Hershey's Caramel syrup, soy milk, and vanilla flavored instant breakfast powder
Just drink applesauce
Nesquik comes in a few flavors, and can thicken up your drink
Oat flour is basically ground oats, so if you cook it in milk like oatmeal, you'll get a thickened drink that's smooth without a blender, probably.
Baby pouch purees? They're not as cheap as homemade, but you can get them from the Dollar Tree for 2-4 per $1.25, and they're okay.
So, those are my thoughts ♡

ive mentioned this before but ive been honing it down and wanted to try putting it in recipe format, so presenting:
strawberry cheesecake fudgemousse
perks:
- very few ingredients
- minimal dishes needed
- makes a bunch with low effort
- no egg afaik? does have dairy though, and nuts are optional
ingredience:
- cream cheese (1 brick)
- nesquik strawberry milk mix (like 10x what youd put in a normal serving)
- milk (like half a cup ish?)
(those 3 can be replaced with one tub of strawberry cream cheese spread, but it tastes the same if you make it this way and you get more for less money. plus the premade ones have strawberry chunks sometimes)
- nutella (couple scoops, can be replaced with chocolate frosting if you have nut allergies)
- peanut butter (couple scoops, optional)
instructions:
1) acquire largeish tupperware and place cream cheese inside (if using premade strawberry spread, skip to step five)
2) use a fork to mix up the cream cheese a bunch so it wont be clumpy later (you can use a mixer for this also)
3) in a cup mix the strawberry mix with milk and stir until dissolved, should be very thick + syrupy. you don't want too much milk or itll water down your cream cheese and summon the clumpening
4) add strawberry mix to cream cheese in small amounts, fully mixing each bit in before adding the next
5) stir the cream cheese until your arm hurts. switch arms and be floored by how hard it is to stir with your non dominant hand. stir more.
6) once all clumps have been eliminated, add nutella to taste. mix until fully combined, might want to use a spatula as well as the fork here to scrape the sides good
7) repeat with peanut butter. i prefer it a good bit lighter on pb than nutella bc the pb will take over the flavor very quickly
8) smooth out mixture, put lid on tupperware, and place in fridge until stiff. usually i do an hour or two but overnight is probably best. store in the fridge as well or else itll get slimy and the cream cheese might go bad fast
9) enjoy! it should turn out thicker than peanut butter or frosting but not quite as solid as fudge. i like putting a thick layer of it inbetween bread slices or on bagels, and it goes REALLY good with apples. honestly though i just keep a spoon in the tupperware and eat it straight most of the time. 100/10 snack, highly recommend

National Hot Chocolate Day
Made with creamy milk and yummy cocoa, this sugary sweet treat is delicious when enjoyed by itself, or can be a great basic recipe that can then be used to get creative with by adding unique flavors, spices and even liqueurs.
Oh the joy of a cup of steamy hot chocolate on a cold winter day! Hot chocolate provides a delicious and sweet treat that warms the body and the heart.
It’s time to learn more about and celebrate National Hot Chocolate Day!
History of National Hot Chocolate Day
Hot chocolate has a long and delightful history that goes along with the history of the cacao bean. In fact, the first way that chocolate was enjoyed was as a beverage, although quite different from the way people drink hot chocolate today. When cacao beans were first used by ancient people groups, the beans were likely ground coarsely and placed in hot water to create a bitter drink that was used in religious ceremonies.
As chocolate beans and sugar both became more accessible in Europe, the cocoa solids were then used to make chocolate bars and chocolate candies. But a favorite continues to be the warm, sweet milky beverage that is known as hot chocolate!
By 1828, powdered chocolate was made that made it much easier to stir into milk. And when Nesquik was invented in 1948, the first chocolate milk powder made a quick and tasty addition to milk that could also be heated up into hot chocolate.
National Hot Chocolate Day was established to show appreciation for and encourage the celebration of this delicious drink that soothes and comforts the youngest and oldest of souls – and everyone in between!
National Hot Chocolate Day Timeline
1500 BC Earliest traces of cocoa beans
The Olmec, Mayan and Aztec peoples all may have incorporated chocolate drink into their religious ceremonies.
1657 London opens its first chocolate house
Near Bishop’s Gate, a Frenchman opens the first house serving “an excellent West India drink”.
1968 The band ‘Hot Chocolate’ is formed
This band from the UK brings an eclectic mix of reggae, soul, rock and disco over the next several decades.
2004 Starbucks begins serving hot chocolate
Catering to those non-coffee drinkers, the coffee mogul places hot chocolate on their menu.
2004 Polar Express film features hot chocolate
The train taking children to the North Pole serves hot chocolate along with a delightful song.
How to Celebrate National Hot Chocolate Day
Anyone can join in on the fun and celebration of National Hot Chocolate Day, whether keeping it simple or making a big deal out of it! Take a look at some of these fun ways to bring joy and delight in honor of the day:
Enjoy a Cup of Hot Chocolate
Whether using a powdered mix, making it at home from scratch or going out to a coffee shop, the most important task of the day is to drink and enjoy a delicious cup of toasty hot chocolate. The easiest way, of course, is to add a pre-made mix to hot milk, stir it up and drink. Adding marshmallows or whipped cream on top can turn it into an extra delicious treat.
For a more sophisticated hot chocolate drink in honor of National Hot Chocolate Day, try using an online recipe that is often used in many different coffee shops and cafes. Typically, these recipes will include whole milk, unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, bittersweet or semisweet chocolate and vanilla extract. The ingredients are mixed together, cooked on the stove, melted and whisked to a creamy hot chocolate perfection.
Learn the Health Benefits of Hot Chocolate
Although the most popular versions of hot chocolate typically do contain quite a bit in the form of sugars and carbs, some homemade varieties that contain actual dark chocolate and milk (or plant-based milks) can provide some interesting health benefits. Check out some of these ways that hot chocolate might be good for you:
Good for heart health
Brain power booster
Rich in antioxidants
Helps with the memory
According to Harvard research, hot chocolate contains flavanols and phytosterols, which are able to reduce the levels of bad cholesterol in the blood, which can be an indicator of heart disease. Plus, the antioxidants are helpful in the fight against heart disease as well.
Scientific research suggests that the flavanols in cocoa tend to increase the brain’s oxygen levels and activate neurons at a higher rate – equaling better brain performance and improved cognitive function.
Dark chocolate contains antioxidants, like polyphenols and flavonoids, which can help reduce the negative impact of aging, as well as boosting the immune system and reducing inflammation.
One study has shown that drinking hot cocoa twice a day could not only give a memory boost, but may also reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease in some people.
Get Creative with Hot Chocolate
Hot chocolate is certainly tasty when it is enjoyed on its own, but it also offers a ton of options when new varieties are made with just a bit of creative flair in the kitchen! Check out some of these ideas for taking National Hot Chocolate Day to the next level:
Spicy Mexican Hot Chocolate. Cinnamon, chili powder and dark chocolate turn this hot chocolate drink into something extra special.
Hot Chocolate with Peppermint. This one can be made using either peppermint flavored extract or with chopped up peppermint sticks or peppermint candies.
Boozy Pumpkin Hot Chocolate. Add some pumpkin pie spice to a hot chocolate recipe and then toss in a bit of winter warmth using Kahlua, bourbon, peppermint schnapps or a bit of cinnamon whiskey.
Nutella or Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate. One fun and easy way to add a bit of flavor to hot chocolate is to simply stir in a scoop of peanut butter or Nutella to give a smooth and creamy flavor. This is a fun one that kids can easily take part in as well!
Gift Some Hot Chocolate to Loved Ones
Perhaps National Hot Chocolate Day is a time to not only enjoy some hot chocolate on your own, but to spread the love and cheer by sharing in the day with some friends, coworkers or family members. It could be something as simple as surprising a coworker with a cup of hot chocolate picked up from the local coffee shop on the way to work.
Or maybe celebrating the day means creating special handmade packets of hot chocolate mix. Put them in decorative bags, add some candy kisses or peppermint disks and place it inside of a cute new hot chocolate mug. Make it special by tying a little colorful ribbon around the gift or placing a bow on top, just for this fun and festive occasion.
National Hot Chocolate Day FAQs
Is hot chocolate good for you?

i baked these chocolate cookies and for some reason they remind me of like nesquik chocolate cereal? here's the recipe
200g margarine, melted (i used it to substitute butter in the original recipe, it makes cookies more crispy rather than chewy)
30g olive oil (refined, not extra virgin, but that would be interesting to try) (i used it because i ran out of margarine)
2 eggs (around 140g combined)
310g flour
60g cocoa power (store brand, nothing fancy)
10g instant coffee powder (not granules, they are harder to dissolve)
1 tsp baking soda (i don't use baking powder because it is basically just baking soda with an acid, and i'm afraid that it would get less potent over time from moisture in the air allowing its components to react and then i wouldn't know how much of it i should add. for best results you would have to balance the pH levels of your ingredients but it doesn't take a lot of acid to neutralize baking soda (cocoa and coffee used here are slightly acidic) and i think it's okay if my dough is slightly alkaline because it promotes browning)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp vanilin (apparently it's not as available in the west as vanilla extract and it does have less depth of flavor than the extract, but i suspect that the moisture would mess with the texture of the cookies, so i would advise to use vanilla sugar instead)
i mixed the wet ingredients and added the dry ingredients just kind of on top of the wet and mixed them up a bit before combining with the wet because who wants to dirty a second bowl just for mixing dry ingredients, i don't even have a second bowl big enough for this
then i left the dough in the fridge for like 10 minutes? while the oven was preheating.
then i scooped the dough with a spoon and scraped it out on the tray with a silicone spatula, didn't flatten them or anything, foolishly thinking that they would spread out while baking, forgetting that it's the moisture in the butter that makes them do that. as you can see they're pretty thick. this recipe makes two trays of around 14 cookies each.
bake at 200°C (392°F) for 20ish? minutes until solid in the middle.
i can't really compare the texture to anything else. it's not crispy or chewy, cakey or crumbly, just sort of in the middle? i think if you made them really small they would actually be pretty close to chocolate cereal, they would be dryer then and you would have to bake them for a shorter amount of time. i guess the vanilin gives them that commercial flavor that cereal has, and there's some kind of oil in cereal as well. nesquik specifically contains wheat, corn and rice so adding corn and rice flour would probably get the cookies even closer to that flavor.

Some of my favorite band kid antics from this past year cause im feeling nostalgic
One of my fellow trumpets in jazz band, a freshman, wrote some really dumb (affectionate) lyrics to one of our jazz pieces that didnt have any. It was basically just the title of the song repeated a few times with some related lyrics, to the tune of the trumpet part. He emailed it to the creator of the song for shits and grins, but the creator said he liked it and approved!
Some of our designated funnymen hid Kung Fu Panda mcdonalds toys around our band director's office
One of said designated funnymen, a Junior tuba, got obsessed, along with his friends (well, friends is kind of an understatement, they were more like a group of the trope of 'its not gay if i kiss the homies goodnight', aka just gay tender enough to make you wonder. but it was still pretty funny), with playing chess, both online and irl, for the last few months of school. He proceeded to sit our band director down after school before our Prism concert and beat him atleast five times
The first day of the Prism concert, after school while we were waiting till it started at six, one of our mellows (the freshman who made the jazz lyrics btw) and one of our senior euphoniums (the senior class had already had their last day by this point) had what they called an "alfredo off". Each of them brought in alfredo pasta they had made and had our band director judge which one was best. The senior had made like, two pounds of it that she brought in big aluminum tins so everyone had some. she put like a pound of cheese in it and it was so buttery and good.....
Unfortunately the mellow jazz lyric freshman was disqualified, as his mom's recipe included jar alfredo mix which was apparently not counted as homemade 😞
I lost my voice a good few times from shouting chants very loudly at football games and pep rallies
The second day of waiting after school for the Prism concert saw one of our trombones (I say, as if there was more than one trombone during marching season this year (our band was very small) lmao) in my year bringing in a gallon of milk to mix with nesquik syrup, because apparently our band director had never had chocolate milk before. Apparently one of the trombone guy's friends had won a nesquik-themed gift basket in a raffle of some kind, but the friend didnt want it and gave it to him. It had like little metal spoons with the rabbit on them and everything. And, yes, they drank it while also playing chess
One of the skits for Prism was a 'Viking trio' where two of our horn freshman (including the jazz lyrics alfredo one, yes) did a duel complete with plastic swords and viking helmets and fake beards, using their french horns as shields, while our band captain/horn and high brass section leader sang some sort of opera (her voice is absolutely beautiful btw).
During one of the many rehearsals done the evenings before the actual concert, they were doing the viking skit but the two dueling weren't really paying attention to where they were on stage, and jazz lyric alfredo guy ended up backing up very quickly.... into one of the walls at the side of the stage. It was all good, the back of his head just hurt for a little bit, but we had alot of fun joking around about it and whenever he messed up on stage/behind the wings he would be like "its not my fault dude, ive got brain damage!"
Speaking of that, the Viking trio... trio got a large amount of the band speaking in southern accents around the end of the year. All of our french horns, including them, in concert band played trumpet in jazz band.... meaning i had to stand next to them. They had been joking around and getting on eachother jokingly the whole year (to the point that our band director had to tell them to pay attention several times.... sigh), and at this point the two freshman (including lyric alfredo guy) had a bit where they were a couple and spoke in southern accents (one of those kinda 'bromance'.... things.... at the band awards night at the end of the year they won "most dynamic duo" and stared lovingly into each other's' eyes while the picture was taken), mostly calling eachother "sweetpea" and "honeybun"
So eventually, the southern accent thing rubbed off on our band captain the one who sung opera in the viking trio. It's important to note that our jazz band setup had the trumpets in back against the wall behind the trombones, and at the other side of the line of us (we had six trumpets including me, i was at the other side of the line near the corner of the wall with the other person from the horn section, as we both played the 4th part and would often share a stand) was the drum set. One day, the band captain/horn/jazz trumpet/jazz vocalist grabbed one of the spare drum sticks that had fallen on the ground... and started calling it a 'bone'. This lead to several times where when the other two of the trio wouldn't shut up in jazz band she would threaten to... bone them. and then they would start referring to her as. (sigh) the boner... as she would. bone them. i wish i was making this up.
This very funny feuding bit (i will admit that i cracked up laughing on several occasions) lasted for a while. and eventually it just started rubbing off on quite a few people, including me (bringing me back to my southern roots, as i claimed.... keep in mind we live in florida). I look back on it fondly, even though it was hard to listen/focus on what our band director was saying from the very back of the setup while they were also laughing and talking for most of the time.... 🙃. But like I said, it was all in good fun
In addition the funnyman junior tuba who got his group of 'sweetpeas'... by which i mean friends... into chess, also fell victim to the southern accents and feuded several times with the other horn freshman from the viking trio over the jazz lyric alfredo freshman.... it was like the world weirdest non-romantic polycule
In jazz band the tuba guy played trombone.... by which i mean he had only recently started playing it in order to be in jazz band. There were several times over the course of the year where he would flat out refuse to play a certain part in some of the songs because they were out of his range... our band director didn't get too mad because that was just how the guy is... like, "oh, classic [tuba guy's name]!" Our band director still made him play the parts he could (and some of the parts he couldn't yet, with some pushing).
He campaigned several times for an opportunity to play 'jazz tuba', to the point where he specifically remembered, from like the very beginning of the year, that one of the times he asked for it our director offhandedly said something "I'll let you do for one song this year but that's it". He reminded our director of this before our big end-of-the-year jazz festival performance, and though he was very sceptical and didn't remember saying it at all (several of us remembered and backed up the tuba guy's claim, even though it was definitely something that was said just to make him shut up about it), our director did let him play tuba in one of our pieces during the festival and prism.
That being said, he sat right in front of me in jazz band, and during class he would turn around and push my stand down. I cannot describe the amount of rage he inspires in me, and I threatened him several times over the course of the year (all in good fun, but it was. super. annoying.). Unfortunately nothing fazes him ever, but he did eventually stop later in the year (once our band captain noticed when she wasn't threatening to 'bone' other members of her section)
One of my absolute favorite moments: during jazz band, I had asked our band director which version of Pokemon Scarlet/Violet he was getting (since he already talked about preordering it), and he was talking about the version specific pokemon, yadda yadda yadda, and then I yelled out that I would get scarlet cause the professor lady is hot, and everyone burst out laughing
One of the trumpet freshman in concert band started slipping pencils into our director's pocket. and then saying "check your pockets" to him during class. Though he only did it a handful of times, it was enough to make our director paranoid when he randomly said it during class
Not necessarily band related, but another one of our trumpet freshman showed me that, somehow, around the very strict district website blocking, that he and his friends had pirated 6 of the main series fnaf games. Apparently they used the big bulkier computers in the game and sim room and just emailed it to their school laptops. Just sharing bc i am very impressed and proud

Never tried banana milk, I always was that one basic strawberry milk bitch, but it sounds so delicious! Also, homemade Limoncello?? I have to say, as usual, every recipe you share makes me desperate for a taste!
Strawberry milk is absolutely wonderful. Used to always keep some strawberry nesquik stuff on hand to get it.
And Limoncello is really easy to make at home! You just skin some lemons, let em soak in a high-proof alcohol, age it for a month, and then mix with simple syrup and you're done
