May 2024: Kebab Weekend

It might not look like it but this thin line of trees between a highway and a field filled with utility lines is a much needed habitat especially for birds:

"As swift as the swallow that flies through that air." - The Creggan White Hare by Daoiri Farrell:

Squirrels are sloppy eaters. Squirrel planted sunflower:

Saturday dinner - salad, grilled vegetables with steak, chorizo & shrimp:

The art of imbuing food with smoke flavor on a gas grill. This is a roughly 50/50 mixture of pecan & apple wood. The pecan is strong like hickory, oak & mesquite while the apple is sweet & light. The blend renders a smoke flavor that is balanced like a beautiful katana crafted by a master. The blackened pieces are wood chunks that have seen one or more grillings. The water, with its minute particles of ash, is retained & poured into our compost bins. Nothing is wasted... only transformed:

Maybe we'll get grapes this year:

More squirrel planted sunflowers. Given the effort that my queen & I have put into trying to grow sunflowers in previous years, it is a little annoying that the squirrels managed it by just being sloppy eaters:

My 3 minute egg timer that I've started using to time when I'm grilling. My queen likes her steak well done. On our gas grill, 16 to 18 minutes produces a well done steak that is still juicy. She says I could teach the cooks at the local steakhouses a thing or two about cooking a well done steak properly:

Sunday dinner. My queen requested more grilled delights. This time the protein was chicken:

The most effective thing about Ever After High is that every student has their own personal struggle that adds another element to just how life-ruining the destiny system is.

Apple is so terrified of what will happen to her if she doesn’t follow her destiny, that she is willing to compromise everyone else’s happiness to make sure it happens. This disregard for other people is only encouraged by the influential adults in her life.

Ashlynn has to be a servant to an abusive family and live knowing that the ultimate end to her supposedly happy ending is dying to set the stage for her daughters traumatic backstory, starting the whole cycle over again with no chance for any of them to escape.

Blondie feels so pressured to fit in to a deeply classist/monarchist society and ashamed of her parentage that she constantly presents a fake version of herself to everyone she knows, even her best friends.

Briar has to spend her whole life waiting for the moment her destiny comes and she falls asleep for a century. She knows that when she’s woken up, she will be forced to marry a boy dozens of years younger than her who she’s never met and live knowing that everyone she ever loved is dead and gone, the very things that she watched cause her mother’s emotional breakdown.

Cedar’s father was so afraid of watching her repeat his mistakes that he overcorrected, making it impossible for her to ever learn lessons for herself. She is also forced to share incredibly personal details with anyone who asks her questions, and can’t be trusted by her friends with any of their secrets, and it’s all because of her father’s past trauma.

Cerise has to hide who she truly is and never gets to see her family together and happy despite the fact that her parents have potentially the most healthy and mutually beneficial marriage in the whole franchise.

Daring was groomed from birth for a destiny that ends up not actually being his at all, leaving him aimless, feeling as though he has no purpose and has wasted his entire life.

Darling is forbidden by patriarchy and destiny to become a knight, the only thing she really wants, and at which she would be better than both of her brothers. She has to hide who she is and what she loves from everyone she knows

Dexter lived his whole life never knowing what his destiny would be but also knowing that whatever it was he’d have to commit to it forever the moment he discovered it at Legacy Day.

Duchess has spent her whole life knowing that the story she’s commited to living out ends in tragedy for her, and then had to watch the very people she’s been jealous of for years because of their seemingly happy endings give up those endings, while Duchess, loyal and rule following Duchess, is still stuck with her tragedy.

Faybelle tries so hard to commit to what she sees at her destiny that she’s never had a real friend in her life. Even still, no one recognizes her for all that effort and all she’s given up to be a suitable villain. Everyone is more afraid of Raven, who doesn’t even want to be evil.

Hunter has to constantly go against his moral compass to fulfill his destined role as a Huntsman and to try and make his father proud of him.

Kitty has been taught over and over again to value her Mother’s approval over all else, even at the expense of her friends. Her destiny is to create mischief, but how much more mischief can a dissolving world take before it’s too much?

Lizzie finds it almost impossible to express love or care for anyone else due to her mothers excessive conditioning that’s nearly akin to brainwashing. The saddest thing might be that her mother is actually, in her own way, trying her best to prepare Lizzie for a world that will only ever see her one way—as a villain. Now she lives in Ever After, princess to a kingdom that might not even exist for much longer, having given up everything for a destiny that may soon be impossible.

Maddie is a refugee forced from her home into a world she barely understands at a tender age. But she cannot express any angst or negative feelings about this circumstance, because to do so would go against her character. She lives in a world obsessed with destiny and stories while not even knowing if she’ll ever be able to return home and live out her story.

Raven is judged by almost everyone around her for her mothers crimes, many of which were required of her by destiny in the first place. She is nearly forced to commit to becoming a tyrannical megalomaniac (and almost falls into it herself, several times) who would be sentenced to lifelong punishment and torture for committing acts that weren’t even her idea in the first place, and the one punishing her would have been the very girl who begged so often for her to stop being so difficult and just follow her destiny.

Ever after high characters and how much I think they swear / cuss:

Apple: not at all she’s a good child of god 🙏

Raven: occasionally, but she’s very adamant on being well spoken so not unless she’s especially mad

Maddie: no one knows, she speaks non sense when she’s mad, if she’s even capable of being angry

Kitty: sparingly, she prefers to show her hatred with actions

Lizzie: never, maybe once when she was really mad

Briar: she swears like a sailor, but never angrily always in a fun / joking manner

Faybelle: also swears like a sailor except it’s always angrily (unless towards briar)

Bunny: she doesn’t know any swear words

Alistair: neither does he

Daring: never swears, he’s too busy

Cerise: she swears an average amount for a teenager

Cupid: she swore once, will never again

Blondie: swears occasionally

Cedar: she’s too nice to swear, but she said shit once and everyone freaked out

Darling: swears like a sailor, in every way possible

Dexter: doesn’t swear

i'm actually kind of in love with this because everything about it is so perfect??

the way hunter's picking up ashlynn and the way she's just swinging her legs and throwing her arms out, i love it sm, she looks so cute.

apple and raven are looking like an old married couple like always. and what's funnier is that dexter, raven's actual love interest, is standing right there, but atp, apple's got a monopoly on raven so dexter's demoted to standing awkwardly by raven's side.

briar and cedar are over here looking great as always.

BUT THE BEST PART

IS THAT CERISE IS SO FUCKING TALL

SHE'S LITERALLY RESTING HER ELBOW ON DEXTER.

cerise for the fucking win yk.

okay okay follow up, here are my broader opinions

I'm open to an argument for why a character should shift alignment except for apple. she stays in lawful neutral and I will not hear a single word to the contrary

The Shannon Hale Ever After High books are basically Raven bi-panicking every five minutes in between existential crises, while Apple’s so far in the closet she’s nearly found Narnia and is also constantly facing existential crises. Except Wonderlandiful World. That’s Cedar, Kitty, Maddie, and Lizzie’s turn to have existential crises.

hi everyone! today I managed to extract many of the *playable* character's sprites from the Tea Party Dash game (basically a Diner Dash knockoff but with EAH in it) I thought I should share them!

I also tried to get the animation files too, but im having a hard time extracting and reading them so i'll post them a bit later

EDIT: posted the dancing animations here
