January Compliments ☀️🔍

[Compliments Masterlist]

Hello everyone and welcome to the first Compliments Post of 2024! Hope the year has started off well for you all, and if not, then I hope this post can at least provide a little bit of joy to your day 🫶

We may be only one month in but the boys have been delivering since the very first day 🙌 So let’s get into it shall we! :-

January 2024

Ian’s 2023 Wrap Up

So to start us off, first day of the year and Mr Sunshine was already tugging at our heartstrings with his wrap up of 2023, and who made his 2023 what it was? Well Anthony of course 🥹

STOP IT! RIGHT NOW! 😩

LIKE WHAT IS THIS??? IM MEANT TO COPE WITH THIS??? HOW???

The fact the WHOLE post is Anthony - from the photos to the caption! EVERY SINGLE PHOTO HAS ANTHONY 😭 Also don’t even get me started on the two unseen photos and the fact they’ve been kept from us till now. How dare 😤 AND the fact the first person he thanked was Anthony! Like yes he’s thanking and appreciating many people with this post but come on now, from the pictures alone it’s clear who made his year. This is just SO SPECIAL! Especially coming from Ian, who isn’t normally a big one for sharing his emotions (I think we’ve seen a change with that recently though), but this is BIG!

Anthony also in return left a sweet comment :-

“proud of you buddy.”

CRYING 😭 They kill me these two, couldn’t even go one day without being sappy to each other - not that I’m complaining. And as much as I would love to just sit here in this gooeyness, we’ve got a lot to get through so I must move on 🥲

LEGEND OF ZELDA RAP (Flashback)

So they reacted to the classic Legend Of Zelda Rap in this Flashback eps and got a few little compliments thrown in :-

[discussing the scene of Ian dressed as Link winking at the camera that spawned a viral gif]

Anthony: “That for some reason was a clip that went viral- or a gif that went viral.”

Ian: “Yeah, it’s like horny posters.”

Anthony: “Yeah.”

Ian: “Yeah.”

Anthony: “I see it way too much.”

[shoutout editor Kortney for this 😆]

Ian: “Gotta say, never looked better.”

Anthony: “That’s true.”

Anthony agrees 😏

Erin: [asking Ian if he had spicy time in the Link outfit like Anthony said about the Assassin’s Creed outfit in their 2 Truths 1 Lie eps]

Ian: “I did not have spicy time in the Link outfit because that outfit was very tight, there was not much of a range of motion in it.”

Anthony: “Right. Well you could be a pillow princess in that.”

Ian: “I’m not a pillow princess.”

Anthony: “Oh really?”

Ian: “Yeah.”

Anthony: “I’ve heard otherwise.”

[look at each other and Anthony laughs]

Ian: “Oh yeah, cause canonically we had sex for seven years.”

Anthony: [laughs] “In the Food Battle lore.”

Ian: “Yeah. Canonically in Food Battle, we’ve had sex for seven years. You know every crevice of my body.”

Anthony: “Of your anatomy.”

Ian: “Yeah.”

Anthony: “Anywho…”

Ian: “Wow, this went a weird place.”

Anthony: “Back to looking at Link in his prime.”

Ian: “Back to me looking freakin’ HAWT.”

Anthony: “Yeah.”

Just them casually discussing the fact they’ve canonically had sex for 7 years and then Anthony once again agreeing Ian looked hot in the Link outfit… I don’t think I even need to say anything.

Anthony: “Oh! And I just want to give a shoutout to myself.”

Ian: “Oh, [sings] shoutout to myself.”

Anthony: “I painstakingly added those fucking stars [in the scene] for some reason. I thought they were so necessary.”

Ian: “Yeah, no, that was sick.”

Ian giving Anthony a little compliment for his hard work 😊

…

Speaking of the stars it was also something Ian brought up again later when they appeared in the video again :-

Ian: “Stars. Stars.”

Anthony: “Oh yeah. Stars. We got ‘em in there.”

Very cute how he wanted to shoutout Anthony’s work again ☺️

Erin: “That’s Anthony?! [as Ganondorf]”

Ian: “Yeah.”

Anthony: “Shut up. You knew that was me.”

Erin: “That’s crazy.”

Ian: “You didn’t know that was Anthony?”

Erin: “Where’d your, like, jaw go?”

Ian: “What do you mean? He’s got an epic jaw.”

Ian got so defensive on Anthony’s behalf here, I love it! Reminded me of the moments from Who Meme’d It when Anthony was defending Ian 😌

And that was us for this video!

Moving on…

SOUP!

Gets a big title cause why not!

But yes, soup! So Ian has gotten into making soup this year and on that same Friday we got the Flashback, that evening we were blessed out of nowhere with these stories :-

THE WAY I SCREAMED WHEN I SAW THESE 😩

Like this is the cutest, most domesticated shit ever! They kill me!!!!

And okay yes when that first photo was posted I thought Ian was right then and there cooking it for him, Ian then responded with this :-

Let me live in my fantasies Ian! 😤

But regardless of Mr dashing-my-dreams Hecox, I’m still of the mindset they were hanging out that day and that’s when Ian gave him the container of soup.

Evidence :-

This photo only. That I believe Anthony took 😌

Also I try not to make these posts too shipper-heavy so that everyone may enjoy them if they’re just here for the friendship alone, so I’ll just leave this other little post I made here about some other thoughts I had on this soup situation that isn’t in the friendship realm 🤭 All cool if that’s not for you though!

VidConfessions

So 7 months later Vidcon finally decided to post this little interview they had with them lol. And even with such a short video we still got a few complimentary/cute moments :-

So Anthony was being his usual self and finding Ian the funniest person alive as always. There was a couple moments where Ian gave his answers and you just hear Anthony’s laugh in the background 🥰

Q: What are the last three things you Googled?

Ian: “Jared Leto cult…”

He’s a cutie ☺️

…

And it happened again!

Q: What’s the cringest thing you’ve ever done for views?

Ian: “I mean like our whole channel’s cringe.”

Anthony, once again: [laughing in the background]

Love him and how much he loves Ian and his humour 😊

This was just one wee last bit I thought was cute :-

Ian: [signing out the video] “This has been Ian from Smosh, that’s right, the channel that is 17 and a half years old that’s doing sketch comedy again with my best friend Anthony.”

Can never resist them calling each other ‘best friend’ so of course had to include it!

Making of Pokémon In Real Life 2024

So they brought back the classic Pokémon In Real Life sketch, and from that obviously we got the BTS. Only a couple little moments from this one but just wanted to include them cause they were silly 🤓

Ian: [sneezes] “Sorry. Your hairspray.”

Anthony: “Ohhh… he’s allergic to me [smirks].”

👀 Don’t know what that was about but alrighty, Anthony…

Ian: [cuts his finger and there’s a dot of blood]

Anthony: “Oh my god, dude. Are you okay?”

Ian: “No, I’m not okay. Trigger warning gore.”

Anthony: “Do you need someone to suck out the blood?”

Why did this just turn into Saltburn? Don’t know what Anthony was on with the these two moments but I won’t question it 😝 And despite saying ‘someone’, he was definitely offering to suck the blood from Ian’s finger himself 🤭

Pokémon In Real Life 2024 Watch Party

Of course with the sketch and BTS we got a livestream, which gave us some cute and complimentary moments 😊

To kick off this livestream I just wanna point out that they were wearing matching colours with Anthony’s jacket and Ian’s hoodie, plus matching Smosh Pokémon hats which is very cute 😊

Ian: [apologising for getting annoyed in the BTS due to the background noise messing up their filming] “Dude, this video. This Pokémon video. I apologise if I looked very angry in the behind the scenes.”

Anthony: [laughs] “You didn’t look that bad. Honestly, it amped up accurately.”

Erin: “The compilation of you getting angry, it was pretty funny.”

Anthony: Yeah, so it was justified. People knew why you were angry.”

Love the reassurance from Anthony here so that Ian isn’t worried about how he came across in the video.

[take their hats off]

Ian: “How’s my hair? Is it weird?”

Anthony: “Is mine weird? Yours is fine.”

Ian: “No, I feel like yours is like, yours has like a messy chic to it, you know.”

Them just complimenting each other’s hair - here for it! Also Ian’s added compliment of “messy chic” 😄

[playing Pokémon quiz]

I&A: “Jinx.”

Crew: [laughs]

Anthony: [smiles and points to Ian] “Jinx.”

Ian: “That’s our favourite. Favourite Pokémon.”

Funny because it’s both the Pokémon’s name and they said it at the same time 😝 Cute how Ian also got in that that’s their favourite ☺️

[complete the quiz]

Anthony: “Dude, 100 percent, bro.”

I&A: [high-five]

Of course always gotta include the highfives 😌

After the quiz they go on to play a Pikachu x Sonic crossover. Anthony plays a round and then Ian goes to play but can’t get the controls to work for him so Anthony’s showing him what to do 🥹 I don’t feel the need to include what they said here as it’s just Anthony saying what buttons to push but just wanted to include a little description of what was happening at this moment 😊

Ian: [completes the game]

Anthony: “You won the game.” [clapping]

Just another little cute moment I wanted to include of Anthony clapping for Ian 🙂

[playing Pokémon Among Us]

Anthony: [playing the game well]

Ian: “Alright, I hate that you’re like kind of eating.” [as Ian kept dying]

A begrudging little compliment from Ian there 😄

[signing the livestream off]

Ian: “Happy New Year, hope the holidays were a fun time for you and you had some eggnog and sat by the campfire…”

Anthony: “Roasting chestnuts.”

Ian: “Roasting chestnuts.”

Anthony: “Or chestnut. I’m not making any assumptions.”

Ian: “….What?”

Anthony: “Just if they don’t have more than one chestnut.”

Ian: “Ohh, okay. I don’t know if you could buy a singular chestnut but…”

Anthony: “I think there’s a way.”

Ian: “Go off king.”

Just a silly little one to end on because I wanted to include Ian calling Anthony ‘king’ 🤭

Can I Guess Who Slapped Me?

So the video of Anthony getting slapped finally dropped! And it was everything and more, especially when it came to moments between Ian and Anthony so let’s jump right in :-

Right off the bat we had this as the description for Ian…

👀👀👀

Now onto the actual slapping…

The moment that got us all was just before Ian slaps him he slowly started caressing Anthony’s face so obviously that had us all going crazy! Including the cast and crew!

Anthony: [after the slap] “Oh. Wow. Uhhh, this person thinks they’re hilarious.” [laughs]

Cast & Crew: [laughing]

Ian: [Trying not to laugh]

Anthony: “Uhhh, who would do that? Who would caress my face and slap me out of nowhere?”

Ian: [boops Anthony’s nose]

Anthony: “Uh, it feels like an Ian move to me… Did you just boop me? Um, that feels like an Ian move.”

Kiana: “That is correct.”

Everyone: [celebrating and applauding]

Anthony: [puts his hands out and Ian high-fives him]

Angela: “Friendship always wins!”

Ian: “Well done. Well done. Good job to you.”

Anthony: [bowing]

Ian: “There we go. There we go. That’s the only one you truly needed to get right.”

Anthony: [laughs]

So true Ian! That was the most important one he needed to get right! And I just want to point out how Ian was only the 3rd person Anthony got right, and of course he knew it was him right away with his cheeky little joke of “this person thinks they’re hilarious” 😝 he knew the second Ian caressed his face that it was him cause they truly just know each other that well ☺️ Live for Angela yelling “Friendship always wins!” after he got it right too! And can we also talk about the totally unnecessary, but very, very cute little nose boop Ian threw in there just cause he wanted to! Obsessed!

A little bit later in the video during Duran’s round of slapping Anthony another little moment happened that I just wanted to include cause I thought that it was funny and showed how silly of a mood Ian was in, I think Anthony being blindfolded was playing a part in that and he gained a little extra layer of confidence to just fuck about with Anthony 😆

Anthony: [standing with his butt pushed out waiting to be slapped]

Kiana: “The stance is great. The stance is great.”

Ian: [runs over and pretends to go in to slap Anthony’s butt]

Anthony: “Why’s there wind?”

Cast & Crew: [laugh]

Hehe 🤭

Anyways! That was it for the slapping video but I did also want to include something that came off the back of it and that was…

Bonus

Anthony dedicating a whole Instagram post to Ian slapping him :-

Obessed with this though! The fact he went out of his way to make a post specifically about Ian slapping him over anyone else, plus that caption! ‘only ian would slap me like that’ - truly the cherry on top of it all 😌

Jacksfilms Confesses His Biggest Regret

So they had Jacksfilms on as a guest for Flashback to react to some of his old videos and an old collab of his the boys had been a part of.

Jack: [talking about how he moved to LA after he graduated] “…And that’s when I started collaborating with some, then, very big YouTube channels.”

Anthony: [looks at Ian] “Yeah, back then we were big.” [elbows Ian and Ian elbows him back]

Them just being silly 😄 loved the little elbowing of each other too 😊

Jack: “I remember I was in college, I was like out hanging with my friends. I just got 50,000 subs on YouTube, baby. And one of my friends just like took the air right out of my tire, or sails, whatever, and was like ‘Uh, yeah, did you know that Smosh has like a million now?’.”

Ian: “Pffft.”

Anthony: [silent laughs] “Noice!” [high-fives Ian] “Noice!”

Again, just more of them being silly. Plus high-five!

I should have mentioned at the start of this section that Ian is in a tshirt-dress for this video as a reference to Jack as it’s got tweets of his printed on it. Anyway, as a result his legs are out obviously, and that’s relevant to this next part :-

Anthony: [talking about how there’s always an audience for every kind of content, it’s just about what kind of audience you want to have]

Ian: “That’s true. And you want this audience.” [pointing to show off his legs]

Anthony: “You want this.”

Ian: “You want the audience that accepts this.”

Anthony: “This is what you want. This is the audience that we have. And we are very happy with this audience.”

Ian: “Exactly.”

Anthony: “They’ve been begging for this.”

And we’re more than happy to be the audience for it! 😌 (As is Anthony considering how many times he was checking out Ian’s legs during this video 😉)

Anthony also had this to say about YouTube’s hate for Ian’s attire 😤

Jack: [talking about a sponsorship he done with other youtubers to test out a new workout program]

Ian: “Did you get Jaaaacked?”

Anthony: [looks at Ian with a smirk and high-fives him]

Second high-five for this video! Also Anthony just quietly complimenting Ian’s pun 😄

Ian: “Do you [Jack] have any regrets? Any videos that you regret making?” [smiling]

Anthony: “You look so happy saying that.” [smiling] “This is happiest I’ve seen you all episode.” [laughs]

Just thought it was cute how Anthony seeing Ian smiling made him smile and laugh 😊

And that was it for another Flashback!

No1 Ian Fan Strikes Again

So Anthony was back at it! The Smosh team was out celebrating one of the crews birthday - Erin posted this to her story. Now I’m sure there were probably multiple photos and videos taken this night but what was the only thing Anthony shared from it? That’s right! Ian of course!

He’s obsessed with that boy and I love it! 😌

Ian also reshared and replied to Anthony’s story which you can find here

Making Of “MrBeast Copycats Have Gone Too Far”

So the BTS of the MrBeast Copycats Have Gone Too Far sketch offered us a few little moments :-

So this seemed to be a very high-five, hand-hold heavy BTS. Think they were just in one of those moods where they want any excuse to touch each other 🤭😉

[Finishing off their little video introduction]

Anthony: [goes in to high-five Ian and grips his hand]

Ian: [high-fives Anthony back and also grips his hand in response]

I&A: [still holding each other’s hands] “Let’s go shoot this shit!”

Ian: [messing up his line] “I’m having a trouble! I’m having a trouble…” [facepalms]

Shayne: “That’s so funny. ‘I’m having a trouble’.”

Anthony and Courtney: [laughing]

Anthony: [to Ian] “Are you having a trouble?” [puts hand on Ian’s shoulder]

Ian: “I’m having a trouble. Words.”

Anthony: [laughs]

I know they were (lovingly) poking fun at Ian here, but the wee glimpse of the shoulder touch from Anthony to Ian is what got me ☺️

I&A: [In character but joking around]

Ian: “There’s a twist. There’s a twist.” [puts hand out to Anthony] “There’s a twist.”

Anthony: “There’s a twist.” [takes Ian’s hand and grips it]

I&A: [still holding hands whilst lightly pushing/tapping each other and repeating “there’s a twist”. They then start scissoring their fingers together, before gripping each other’s fingers and pulling the other in closer to them whilst now repeating “getting twisted” and manically laughing]

Well… that was… something… 👀

Told you they were just looking for any excuse to touch each other. But hey, wouldn’t be a Smosh BTS if Ian and Anthony weren’t flirting with each other 😜

And to finish off this high-five heavy BTS, I’ll leave you with this :-

Ian: [talking about how Anthony injured himself by dropping a laptop on his foot and how he should take an Advil but Anthony doesn’t take Advil so he doesn’t know if it’ll help]

Anthony: “I don’t care about the pain, I just want the throbbing to stop.”

Ian: “He doesn’t like throbbing.”

Anthony: “I don’t like throbbing. I like pulsating.”

Ian: [laughs] “I hate both of those words.”

Anthony: [laughs] “Yeah, usually I say throbbing or pulsating member…”

Ian: [acting disgusted]

Anthony: “Speaking of members thank you so much being a Smoshtastic or Smosh Royalty member!”

Ian: “Yeah! Thanks for being our throbbing members.” [laughs]

Anthony: “Our pulsating members.”

Ian: “Yeahhh, throbbing members.”

I&A: [high-five]

Um… thanks boys, I guess… happy to be a throbbing and pulsating member… 🥴🤦‍♀️ They high-fived so I had to include it, don’t blame me for what they said! 😩

And on that’s note that brings us to the end of January! Hope you all enjoyed reading - I’d say it was a very good start to the year in terms of content, and the boys very much delivered in terms of complimentary moments so can’t complain 😌

Thank you all again for reading and I shall see you next time! 💖

#feel I say this every month but sorry this took me so long to get out for you guys 🫣#appreciate your patience!#but anyways hope you enjoyed the compliments for another month 😊#ianthony compliments #ianthony #☀️🔍#ian hecox #anthony padilla #smosh #my posts

Navaratri 2024: Embracing Divine Energies in April's Splendor.

For the last Navaratri celebration, the focus was on honoring tradition while adding a modern twist to the culinary delights. Here's a glimpse of the delicious fare that graced the tables during Navaratri 2024 in April:

Sundal Varieties: Sundal, a South Indian snack made from legumes like chickpeas, black-eyed peas, or lentils, was prepared in a myriad of flavors. From traditional coconut and mustard tempering to innovative twists like tangy mango or spicy tamarind, each sundal offered a burst of flavor.

Navaratri Special Thali: A vibrant array of dishes adorned the Navaratri special thali. It featured delicacies like crispy Sabu dana vadas, creamy pumpkin kheer, and spicy potato curry. The thali was a celebration of diverse flavors and textures, symbolizing the richness of the Navaratri festival.

Fruit Chat with a Twist: A refreshing fruit chat received a makeover with a drizzle of honey infused with cardamom and saffron. This sweet and tangy treat was a delightful addition to the Navaratri menu, offering a burst of freshness amidst the rich festive fare.

Navaratri-inspired Mocktails: Cool and refreshing mocktails were served to complement the spicy and savory dishes. Mocktails infused with flavors like rose, mint, and citrus provided a welcome respite from the heat and added a touch of sophistication to the celebrations.

Innovative Desserts: Traditional sweets like coconut ladu and jaggery-based delicacies shared the spotlight with innovative desserts. Guests indulged in decadent offerings like chocolate-dipped bananas adorned with edible gold leaf and saffron-infused rashgullas, elevating the dessert experience to new heights.

Garba: Garba is a traditional dance form originating from the state of Gujarat in India. During Navaratri, people gather in large groups to perform this joyful and energetic dance. Dancers form concentric circles or intricate patterns, clapping their hands and moving gracefully to the rhythm of traditional folk songs. The vibrant costumes and rhythmic beats create an electrifying atmosphere, where participants immerse themselves in the joyous spirit of the festival.

Dandiya Raas: Dandiya Raas is another popular dance form performed during Navaratri, especially in Gujarat and other parts of India. In this dance, participants wield colorful sticks called dandiyas while moving in pairs or groups. The dancers strike their dandiyas in sync with the music, creating a rhythmic pattern of beats. Dandiya Raas is not only a dance but also a social activity that fosters camaraderie and community spirit.

Folk Dances: Apart from Garba and Dandiya Raas, various folk dances from different regions of India are also performed during Navaratri. These dances showcase the cultural diversity of the country, with each region contributing its unique style and repertoire. From the graceful movements of Odissi to the energetic steps of Bhangra, folk dances add a colorful dimension to Navaratri celebrations, reflecting the rich heritage and traditions of India.

ARB Special 2024: Meguno Kohaku

March 21

[“I could believe in hell, but it was impossible for me to believe in the existence of heaven.]

“I was wondering why Saki-Chan was telling me to take a day-off today, and then I remembered!”

“A present for me? Kekekeke! Thank you so much!!!”

Voice Lines

“23 years alive! But I like to think I truly started living 3 years ago now that I’m out of that hellpit!”

“Saki-chan told me that maybe I could try slowing down sometimes, especially when I’m getting older, I wonder how? :3”

“Right… I’ve been hearing rumors about another division joining in, and that division has none other than him in it! But I can’t let that ruin my day.”

“I sometimes wonder why exactly was I born like this? The same set of eyes and hairs as Akira, it’s like some kind of punishment from the gods.”

*on the phone* “Ahoy there! ….it’s been a while heh, Sage? Keke, I’m doing well, thank you for your concern. Abou-[STATIC]”

“Shi-shi!! ThatwouldmakeyouthesecondpersontoremindmeIforgotaboutmyownbrithday!!! Anywaaaay, wha’s that on your hand?”

“Woaaa… it’s real?!?! You’d… make a whole outta your wallet just for me?! No way in hell can I thank you enough!!!

“Nacchan!! How was your shift??? Say, a scandal, huh? What do you mean by that?!”

“Champagne, huh. I’ve drank lots already but that one’s new to me! Thank you so much, big sis!”

Nishio Lines

“Haku, don’t tell me you forgot it’s your special day today, hmm? Fufu… either way, I got this one for you!”

“Its a red amber dear, a real one of course! It’s very expensive, but I think it suits you! Fufu, you’re always welcome.”

Nayomi Lines

“Kocchan, happy birthday. I think I heard something spicy about the DRB at my recent shift, whatever that fucking meant. Bleh, that aside, I also got ya something!”

“Champagne-infused sweets, my dad used to buy this shit a lot and I was wondering if you’d like them too. Hah, you’re welcome, my brother-in-arms.”

2024 Book List!

Not that anyone will care about this but I wanted to do it and have fun!! Here is a list of the books I have read so far this year and some of my thoughts!

1. Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins

This was my favorite book of the Hunger Games trilogy. I haven’t read A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes but I do have it. I started the Hunger Games to cope with the fact that I didn’t have the next book for Throne of Glass, but I still loved it I cant wait to watch the movies!!

2. Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

I still to this day have no idea what this ending was and I didn’t like the book enough to try and figure it out. It was alright, didn’t love the ending, and Katiness honestly pissed me off.

3. Heartless by Elsie Silver

Oh my GOD I LOVE THIS BOOK. This is the second book in the Chestnut Springs Series (Flawless, Heartless, Powerless, Reckless, Hopeless) Cade is the standard I have for men now. He is him. I want a grumpy, mid thirties, cowboy to tell me everything’s gonna be okay. Cade and Willa are my lord and saviors.

4. Powerless by Elsie Silver

This is the third book in the Chestnut Springs Series (Flawless, Heartless, Powerless, Reckless, Hopeless) and it was some of the best character development I’ve ever read about. It was fanfuckingtastic. So good, so we’ll thought out and so god damn smutty. Jasper is so 🤭🤭🤭 with his 6’4 tattooed ass.

5. Reckless by Elsie Silver

Theo. Silva. Is. Him. Bullriders are hot. Convince me otherwise. You cannot. Again, some amazing fucking character development form the FMC (Winter Hamilton). I love love love this book. My heart was so happy in the end.

6. Credence by Penelope Douglas

What the actual fuck did I just read. So…. She goes to love with her dads step brother and his two sons in the remote mountains of Colorado. And they get snowed in for the winter. And she’s the only women around. For five months. I’m gonna let y’all figure out the rest. But it has good moments? I think? It was so weird and I’m mad at myself for thinking some of it was hot. It’s fiction, it’s not real. (I’m delusional).

7. Where Broken Wings Fly by J. Rose

This book was outstanding. Fantastic character development and a really good portrayal of PTSD. It’s about a mom and her daughter who escape an arrange, abusive marriage and flee from Mexico to a remote mountain Villingen in England. The cliffhanger at the end made me want to absolutely tear down my house brick for brick to find the answers but I supposed buying the second book will do. It was so good, super smutty, absolutely beautiful.

8. How Does It Feel? By Jeneane O’Riley

What. The. Fuck. WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK. I AM SO NOT OKAY????? Those last two chapters had some Fourth Wing level plot twists that I had no hope of predicting. I am in shambles rn. Absolutely distressed over this fucking god damn mother fucking book. It’s about a biologist who falls through a faerie portal, onto the crowded prince. They think she’s an assassin sent to kill him, and he puts her through a lot of torture to prove her innocence. NOTHING. AND. I. MEAN. NOTHING. will prepare you for this ending.

9. Hopeless by Elsie Silver

AMAZING. 11/10 Elsie silver kills it ever time. This story is about Beau and Bailey. Arranged fake marriage, enemies to friends to lovers. He’s a medically retired special ops military guy and she’s got the worst last name in town. So cute. So sweet. So spicy. Beau Eaton is the standard I have for men now. He’s everything I need. Love love LOVE

10). One Dark Window by Rachel Ginning

My favorite book of the year. Hands down. I cannot stress how much I LOVED. THIS. FUCKING. BOOK. The main character Elspyth has been infected as a child and now harbors raw, unfiltered magic. It is a crime to use magic without the use of the Providence Cards. There are twelve Cards and they all give you separate abilities (strength, speed, beauty, to control others minds, influence emotions and so on). She had the ability to absorb the magic from these cards and now has one of them living inside her head. She teams up with a band of rebels to reunite the Cards in the deck to lift a deadly mist from their town. It’s insanity. It’s so crazy good idk how NO ONE HAS SAID ANYTHING I HAVE NEVER ONCE SEEN THIS BOOK ON BOOKTOK OR IG AND ITS CONCERNING. easily the best world building I’ve ever read. I finished the book last night and the second one will be here today 😭😭

La Cantina Meyhane - Lahmacun and Arabic Pizza

Here you can read my thoughts and feelings about the restaurant we held our second meeting at - La Cantina Meyhane and the gluten-free, turkish pizzas!

~ Alex.

The restaurant we went to on January 2nd 2024, is La Cantina Meyhane, one special restaurant. It specialises in italian cuisine the same as other italian restaurants, however this one offers every position on the menu as gluten-free! It is therefore including of people who can't have gluten, as well as offers vegeterian and vegan options in there menu! About the location, it just great; so-called New Town located in the centre of Warsaw and it's really close to both metro and the bus stop!

Other than the classic pizza, the meal of the week was Lahmacun. It's a Turkish kind of pizza, which originates from Middle East - specifically from Levant region - but due to being highly popularized in Turkey, it's usually named and recognized as Turkish pizza. What's specific for this kind of pizza, is that it's not prepared with cheese and its crust is thinner. It is usually made with minced beef or lamb, minced with vegetables, and then herbs are added to it. it is usually eaten rolled up! Other than this pizza, we also tried another kind of turkish pizza - Pide Caprese!

As you can easily guess from the paragraph above, we made a good decision to order Lahmacun and Arabic pizza, as well as some classic choices: pizza e pistachio, focaccia, and capriciosa. Benath this paragraph, you can see the photo of us making these tough choices, haha (tough, because really, there were so many other, tasty-sounding options to pick from!):

The wait for the pizzas didn't feel long at all to me, when they were served it felt like it was right on time :). I was really impressed with the amount of food we ordered and how good it all looked. You can see it beneath, as well as us starting to eat the pizzas <3:

So finally, here are my thoughts about these special pizzas <3:

First, let's talk about the Turkish pizzas! The important thing to repeat here: they are just as gluten-free as other positions in the menu at this restaurant <3:

Lahmacun - this pizza had ingredients of beef filling with traditional spices, tomatoes, onions, parsley, and lemons. I found this pizza part spicy, part sour, sometimes sweet, and I did not expect it to be as dry as it was! It's a positive aspect of it, I found the taste of this pizza very specific, very interesting, and very tasty!

Pide caprese - oval pizza with ingredients such as tomato sauce, fior di latte, tomatoes, and basil pesto. It was not as dry as the first one felt to me, and the fresh tomatoes were delicious!!! I even caught myself wondering why am I finding this one so good… Well, it's obvious, haha! The tomatoes were sweet, the shape of the pizza itself made me happy, so I can openly say I fully enjoyed eating it <3.

Now, let's move to the classic gluten-free pizzas, that were just as good <3:

Pizza e pistachio - this pizza had ingredients of bacon, corn salad, a cheese I don't know anything about, buy which I think was delicious, and, obviously, pistachios! To be honest, I found the combination of the unidentified cheese and pistachios to be weirdly tasty, which went, suprisingly, extremely well for this pizza in my eyes, and is the reason why I think this one is my favourite!

Focaccia - I think we all know this one, I'd say it's one of the most basic pizzas to ever exist, but it still got me. It was a nice meal, a change of taste between the other pizzas, while also giving something special from its own ingredients combined together <3.

Capriciosa - the pizza with the ingredients of tomato sauce, fior di latte, ham, chorizo, eggs, dried tomatoes, mushrooms (champignons), and olives. I love the mix of mushrooms and ham, sue me, of course I loved it! And yes, again, the tomatoes of many kinds made this one ideal for me too, haha.*

This is what our table was like after we were done with these tasty-sounding (actually being, of course) options :3:

All in all, I'm happy to say this meeting was one of the most interesting ones yet! Sure, it was only the second restaurant, but I found it to be a curious case for me regarding all the pizza-related surprises and new experiences <3. So, I am ending this blog post thinking this meeting was a greatly positive one, and looking into our pizza-filled future with just as big optimism!

~ Alex.

pairing: miguel o'hara x reader

sweet or spicy: sweet

word count: 898

prompt: [ DANCING ]: as they slow-dance together, the sender takes the opportunity to lean in close to the receiver and tell them that they love them.

notes: hi everyone! welcome to the sweet and spicy special for valentine's day 2024! we're starting off with some sweet fluffy goodness, so prepare for some spicy smutty tomorrow for day two!

and if you want to know the song i listened to while writing the dance scene, it's 'so close' from the enchanted soundtrack!

it wasn’t often you and miguel got a chance to go out, but when you did, it was always a wonderful time. this was no exception. the company he worked for, alchemax, was hosting a lavish party, and despite not wanting to go, employee presence was mandatory. whatever, this gave miguel the perfect opportunity to show you off, to show his coworkers that he had the loveliest partner in the world. so when he asked you to accompany him, you were more than eager to join. you loved these nights out, getting to dress up and spend the night out of your apartment.

when you arrived, the lobby of the hotel the party was being held in was stunning. glimmering white lights created a warm glow, and the room itself had a warm atmosphere. you were holding onto miguel’s arm, letting him lead you through the lobby to the ballroom, where you were greeted by a few of his colleagues. he was cordial, but you could see in his eyes that he’d rather be anywhere but there. he took two glasses of champagne from a nearby waiter’s tray, and he handed you one, which you took with a small smile.

“thanks, i needed this,” you said softly, trying for a mood-lifting joke. he allowed himself a smile of his own, and you two stood off to the side to sip your drinks. as other waiters passed by with trays of hor'dourves, you picked at a few, deciding to try some new foods. after all, miguel liked to remind you that it was on alchemax’s dime, why not enjoy yourself? he was happy to see you happy, and seeing you get dressed up was an added bonus, of course.

as the night continued, the hired band was playing upbeat song after upbeat song, and you found yourself swaying a little bit, tapping your foot, just letting the music take you away. miguel watched you for a moment, cracking another smile. you were adorable in his eyes, always living in the moment and enjoying the little things in life. and he wanted the whole of nueva york to know that you were his.

the current song came to an end, and then, the band’s lead singer gently tapped their finger to their microphone, catching everyone’s attention.

“i’m hoping everyone’s having a good time tonight,” they said with a chuckle. “this next one’s for the couples in the room. we’ve been playing good singles music all night, but this one, we picked it with you in mind. so if you brought a special someone with you here this evening, why don’t you bring them out to the dancefloor for a little number?”

the music started up again, but it was a much softer song, with piano filling the room before the singer’s voice. miguel looked down at you, then took your hand, much to your surprise. he was gentle as he led you to the dancefloor, and even some of his colleagues had wide eyes. he never struck anyone as the dancing type. but once out on the floor, his other hand was on your waist, and he led you in a very graceful dance among the other few couples that had join the floor. he felt your free hand rest on his bicep, and he swore he saw your eyes sparkle. the outfit you’d chosen for the night made your eyes pop, and you looked ethereal in the glow of the white lights. you were elegant as he swayed with you in his arms, and it felt like it was only the two of you in the whole world. he spun you around, then pulled you back and continued to sway with you.

“this is nice,” you whispered, and he nodded with a smile.

“a lot nicer than i thought it would be,” he agreed. the music began to swell again, and he spun you once more, but when he pulled you back, he caught you, then lowered you into a dip. your eyes met, and you saw nothing but adoration in his gaze. he pulled you back up and held you close to his chest, then leaned down a bit to your height.

“i love you,” he whispered. “so much.”

“i love you, too,” you whispered back, and he leaned back to look down at you. he was gentle as he lifted you up a bit, and his lips met yours in a soft kiss, just as the music faded away. when you pulled back from one another, you knew people were staring, but you didn’t care. this was a side of miguel that didn’t often come out in public, but when it did, it surprised everyone around you.

“thank you for such a wonderful night,” you breathed, and he grinned.

“thank you for letting me take you. you’re what made it wonderful,” he replied softly, and you felt your face warm slightly.

“such a charmer,” you teased, and he kissed your forehead gently.

“only for you. let’s head out, i need to get out of this suit, it’s suffocating me,” he said, tugging on his collar. you laughed, and this time, you took the lead.

“and i need real food. those little appetizers are so not filling,” you murmured, and he nodded in agreement once again.

“real food and real clothes, waiting at home. god, i love you.”

15 Delicious Ugadi Special Foods and Why They're Special

In South India, especially in places like Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, and parts of Goa, there's a special celebration called the Ugadi Festival.

It's a big deal here because it marks the beginning of the New Year according to the Hindu calendar.

This year, on April 9, 2024, everyone will be gearing up for Ugadi. And you know what's really exciting about Ugadi?

The food! Yep, you heard it right. Food is a huge part of any celebration in India, and Ugadi is no exception.

If you happen to be in Bangalore and want to make some special dishes for Ugadi at home, you're in for a treat!

There's a whole bunch of 15 easy Ugadi special Food Recipes waiting for you to try. So get ready to cook up a storm and celebrate!

About Ugadi Festival

As I mentioned earlier, Ugadi Festival is like the New Year's Day for folks in Telugu and Kannada communities in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, and Karnataka. It's celebrated with lots of enthusiasm and joy.

In Maharashtra, it's called Gudi Padwa, and for the Sindhi community, it's known as Cheti Chand. Telugu people call it Ugadi, while Kannadigas refer to it as Yugadi.

The name "Yugadi or Ugadi" comes from Sanskrit words where 'Yuga' means 'age' and 'adi' means 'beginning'.

So, basically, it means 'beginning of a new age'.

During Ugadi, people buy new clothes, clean their homes, offer prayers, and decorate with beautiful rangolis.

And you know what's really cool?

There's a special dish called Ugadi Pachadi that they make, which represents the different experiences of life.

It's like a symbol of life's ups and downs, all in one tasty dish!

Significance Of Ugadi Festival

Now, let's talk about why Ugadi is such a big deal. Apart from being the New Year's Day, Ugadi is steeped in mythology and stories.

Some say it's the day when Lord Brahma started creating the universe after a long meditation.

Others believe it's the day when Lord Rama was crowned king of Ayodhya, marking the victory of good over evil.

And then there's a tale about Lord Krishna leaving Earth, marking the start of a new era called the Kali Yuga.

Despite Krishna's departure being seen as sad, the Kali Yuga is supposed to bring positive changes.

So, you see, Ugadi is not just about parties and food; it's also about remembering these stories and the lessons they teach us.

Ugadi Food

Alright, let's get to the best part - the food! Ugadi Pachadi is one of the star dishes of Ugadi. It's special because it has six different flavors - sweet, salty, spicy, sour, astringent, and bitter.

Just like life, right? It's a reminder that life is a mix of all these emotions.

Then there's something called bevu bella, which is a mix of neem leaves and jaggery. It's unique to Ugadi and loved by many.

Along with these, there are other yummy snacks and sweets that people make, creating a feast fit for a celebration!

Oh, and if you're wondering, most of these recipes are easy-peasy and even vegan-friendly.

Conclusion

So, there you have it - Ugadi Festival in a nutshell! It's a time for new beginnings, delicious food, and joyful celebrations.

Whether you're in Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, or anywhere else, Ugadi brings everyone together in the spirit of happiness and togetherness.

So, here's wishing you all a Happy Ugadi! Enjoy the festivities and the yummy food!
