Plomeek Soup

Plomeek Soup

Thanks for all your kind words and comments last week! This is going to be a lot of fun. If you have any requests for specific dishes, please let us know. And remember, you can also follow us on twitter and facebook to keep up with the kitchen adventures. We’ll be posting pictures of the cooking process on the facebook page, so if you’re interested in seeing how the dishes are created, be sure to check it out!

This week we turn to another classic dish from a classic Star Trek race - Plomeek soup, a Vulcan dish. Most Vulcans, including the most famous one, Spock, are vegetarian. I would actually suggest that it would be logical for Vulcans to be vegan, not just vegetarian, but maybe that’s just me. I thought it was important to ensure that the recipe was vegan, rather than making it impossible for vegans or vegetarians to eat it by using chicken stock or similar. In addition, this is described as being quite a bland soup, so I have left the seasonings fairly minimal.

There are various iterations of Plomeek soup in the Star Trek canon; they appear to be a variety of colours and thickness. You can see all of them on Memory Alpha. However for this recipe, there was no contest. I had to make the original Plomeek soup, as thrown against the wall by Spock when in the throes of pon farr. If you’re interested in testing out its properties, you can always throw it against the wall, but I’d suggest eating it instead.

Plomeek Soup

Replicate your own (Serves 2 as a main course or 4 as a starter)

1 onion 2 garlic cloves 5 carrots 2 small-medium sweet potatoes, peeled 3 small-medium beetroots, peeled 3 sticks celery 1 litre vegetable stock Salt and pepper Vegetable oil Parsley for garnish (optional)

Start by peeling the beetroots and then the sweet potatoes. Wear a pair of gloves when peeling the beetroots if you don’t want to get pink hands! Then chop up all the vegetables, including the onion and garlic cloves, into chunks. Don’t worry about making them too exact as they will all get blended at the end.

Start by sauteeing the garlic and onion in vegetable oil until soft. Then add the rest of the vegetables and cook for a few minutes. Add 750ml of the stock, reserving the rest. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until all vegetables are quite soft, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Ladle portions of the vegetables and stock into a blender and blend until smooth. Alternatively, you could use a hand blender if you have one. When all the soup is blended, check the flavour and add salt and pepper to taste. At this point, check the soup’s thickness - if too thick, add the remaining vegetable stock as needed.

Serve and garnish with parsley if desired - although I’m sure the Vulcans would consider this highly illogical.

I Just Find It Funny How Stamford Seemingly Did NOT Mention To John That Sherlock Would Know Everything

I just find it funny how Stamford seemingly did NOT mention to John that Sherlock would know everything about him the moment he’d walk in there. He did not know that he was instantly gonna be able to tell him everything about himself as if he had just finished copy and pasting a Wikipedia article about Watson directly into his verbal drive

Instead of warning him Stamford was just like “Can’t wait to see your reaction, it’s better when you experience it first-hand without spoilers lmao” and decided to let John walk into that room completely unprepared for what he was in for lol

John thought this was gonna be a relatively normal conversation

Granada Holmes Granny Square Blanket

In 2020 my husband and I got really into the 1984 Sherlock Holmes with Jeremy Brett. In The Musgrave Ritual, the fourth episode of the second season, Holmes spends a lot of time swanning around being cranky wrapped in a crochet blanket. I had: lots of online classes and zoom calls, lots of pent up anxiety and energy, a wrist injury that flared up during everything except crocheting for some reason, and a Holmes-loving husband who was just as obsessed with this iconic blanket as I was. So I made this!

If you'd like to make one too, read on. I wrote the pattern two different ways; both are in the reblogs. There's a quick and dirty version where I assume you know the basics of crochet and throw some details at you and it's pattern chaos. And there's a nice, neat, detailed pattern with more specific instructions. Caveat for both: I'm a long-time "figure-it-outer" when it comes to fiber craft and I've made up tons of projects but I am new to writing a pattern for someone else to interpret. So good luck in there. And let me know if you have questions!

Incompetent Connor is so hilarious.

Replaying the Hostage and when you manage to save the kid and Daniel is killed and the camera pans to the kid sobbing on the floor and music is all intense and Connor just looks and walks around all cool like mission accomplished - it's such a great badass moment.

Incompetent Connor Is So Hilarious.

But when you don't save her and he walks the same way it's like -

I came.

I horribly messed up,

Connor OUT.

and only used the design function in ACNH for very important stuff🙂‍↕️/hj

Went Back To My Artist Roots
Went Back To My Artist Roots

I used to design a bunch of things in this game, I had almost forgotten about that until I picked it up again for the first time in a while, realized I couldn't put together that cool of an outfit and then remembered I could just design things like this :D

Long story short: I've got a science officer uniform now and my island has gained a Spock photo cardboard thingy lmao

Went Back To My Artist Roots

Also here's a version where I was trying to figure out a background and it ended up looking like Spock was unhinged and in flames🥸

incoming !DBH SPOILERS! TW: concentration camp

I mostly want to mention that 1. I’m glad I managed to play Markus in a consequently pacifist way, love that guy 2. I’m glad I managed to have Connor become deviant while having a stable friendship with Hank and 3. Kara wasn’t as lucky in my playthrough. She ended up in a camp with Alice, while Luther had died at Rose’s house. The camps and their obvious references to world war 2 were devastating to see them go through, as someone who has learned about these events multiple times throughout my school life and who has visited two of the camps that still stand as memorials, reminders and informative sites due to the fact that I’m German, seeing Kara and Alice be stripped of their identity and forced to look less/not human to be degraded and most likely easier to kill, seeing the lifeless bodies being loaded onto trucks, seeing the two of them stand in these lines without any clothes despite Alice already freezing during winter, Kara trying desperately to get back to Alice while having to obey the guards enough to not get killed on-sight before they’d both be forced to walk into the machine and end up dead anyway together. It was a cruel thing to watch and a tragic way to end their story. I’m very happy with my first endings though, because this may be one of the most intriguing ways this game could end for me, I’m definitely gonna replay some of it to see some alternative endings though, for example RK-900 didn’t appear at all in my game, didn’t even know that was possible and Kara, Alice and Luther deserve their happy ending in Canada being a family of three, I really hope that’ll be possible on my next attempt

I just finished Detroit Become Human for the first time and I’m in desperate need to talk about it

I just started watching The Next Generation and it instantly starts off with an evaluation of whether humans are still cruel and whether the people in the present can account for what humans have done in the past, oh I'm loving this🦫
