[sticky entry] Sticky: Om nom!

(Since I'm horrible at writing introductions, I just stole my entry from [community profile] addme so that I can tack down this sticky upfront. Don't mind me! *grins*)

Name: Sage
Other platforms: [archiveofourown.org profile] fleuresage | [tumblr.com profile] fleuresage (I'm bad at staying active on Tumblr since I can mostly be seen lurking on DW)
Active/primary interests or fandoms: I actively write for bandoms (RPF fandom featuring bands such as MCR, FOB, P!ATD, The Used, etc.) I also write for Stardew Valley (video game) if you're interested. Here's a drabble just in case. ( Seeing Is Believing ) P.S. I'm an overwhelmingly big music nerd, I can pretty much listen to anything. And books. Who doesn't love books? ;___;
If you've seen me around, it's probably because: I have an old DW account here, maybe I'm a little bit familiar because we've spoken to each other before? Buuut I absolutely doubt that. *g*
I post about: The most random things; life, fics, recs, movie & book reviews, OTP, grumps/vents/rants, etc. My journal didn't come out of left field, okay, I'm just talkative and may put up occasional comments if we're friends. :V
I post/check my feed: Daily. Or, well, at least I try to. On random occasions I just wing it and forget about my journal, but that's probably due to my tight schedule. I'm active nowadays, though. :)
I want to find people who post about: Pretty much anything and anyone. As long as you're down to interact and are not an asshole then we're good to go. Oh and, if you're also in the SDV (Stardew Valley) fandom, then don't forget to drop by.
My blog is: Partially locked, I post about life too, so friend me if you want access. :D

inevitable drabble #2

Title: Seeing Is Believing
Fandom: Stardew Valley
Rating: General Audiences | M/M
Notes: And because it was inevitable and nobody stopped me and I was/am BORED to death, I accidentally wrote a Sam/Sebastian drabble. INEVITABLE! I've been thinking of them for a while now, okay, IT'S INSANE. *___*
Summary: Sebastian couldn't believe it. Who would go to a party with fake, grafted-on fangs? "I can't believe it."

drabble #1

So I'm going to start listing down my drabbles. I'm in [community profile] 100words and I've already done four so far, but I lost track and I don't want that to happen again! D:! Feel free to prod around if it so pleases you. :)

Title: Broken
Fandom: My Chemical Romance
Rating: General Audiences
Notes: Another drabble because I can, and I had to do something else other than stare at the screen and do nothing. Apparently drabbles are easier done when you're only running on three hours of sleep. *squints* ;___;

lace cookies

Recently I found a post about lace cookies with a recipe which can best be described thus: "A pain in the ass, but they look deceptively easy."

Sigh. I'm a big fan of baking and cooking, but I've never really tried baking cookies before (I know, right?) and I'm so dying to try it one day. For now, I'm writing this recipe from the Fannie Farmer Cookbook for safekeeping. It has added commentary and notes, if you're interested, since the book isn't so elaborate and it might end up in a disaster. :D

1 1/2 cups uncooked oatmeal
1 1/2 cups light brown sugar
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup melted butter
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
(You can add more if you want, but be careful not to add too much. Too much vanilla is icky in my opinion.)

1) Preheat your oven. 350°F.

2) Then melt the butter first for convenience.

3) Mix the oatmeal, brown sugar, flour, and the salt in a medium to large mixing bowl that is NOT wood because it gets sticky, seriously. Add the melted butter and mix. Then add the egg, and the vanilla, then mix. Voila, the cookie batter!

4) Use a cookie sheet and put parchment paper on it. Do not use an ungreased cookie sheet. You want decently-shaped lace cookies, not sad, broken cookies! :(

5) Spoon the batter onto the cookie sheet by the half teaspoon, about two inches apart (Disclaimer: do not use those jiggly rulers if you do not know how to measure, trust me.)
a) You would get approximately eight to nine cookies on a single sheet. That enough? Oh and, FYI, it's convenient to bake lace cookies one sheet at a time, especially if you're a beginner.

Wait for five minutes. Yes, five minutes. Then take them out, set the cookie sheet on top of the stove, and ignore it for three to four minutes. After that, remove them with a metal spatula (mental note: do not use a plastic spatula because plastic isn't sharp enough to get under the edge and remove the cookie without breaking it). You have to be extremely careful because the cookies haven't entirely set yet, and they're delicate. No to sad cookies! D:

6) Put them on the cooling racks and allow them to stiffen for a while.

For storing:
They're best stored in layers with either parchment or wax paper in between. That should keep them from sticking to each other, you really don't want that.

I found this photo on the internet, so come take a look if you haven't had a lace cookie before. You can add almonds and honey too, whatever you want. :D

Anybody interested enough to try it out? Let me know if you are, and tell me how they taste. Have fun with it. \o/!
