Lalá!

if you ever wanna try your hand again at a pie crust, this one is delicious, very forgiving and can be repurposed for sweet things. it's crumbly and flaky:

i'm inordinately fond of shortbread. please have this recipe; it's my go-to, and i make it with almond flour. i've swapped out up to 5 g of flour in the full recipe with cocoa powder for chocolate shortbread, folded a tablespoon of dried lavender flowers or lime zest into it... it's a good base. it also slaps as a pie crust:

You see, the cornmeal bread I was referring to isn't cornbread, as in the Southern United States cousine, but rather bread made with finely ground maize flour. I mistook the terms. It seemed similar enough when I researched about it, but it might be different from what you're expecting. Either way, it's a really good and easy bread and fits both sweet and salty spreads, so I still recommend it! Here is my recipe:

240 ml warm milk

240 ml water

10g active dry yeast

6 tablespoons of sugar

5 tablespoons of oil

One egg

2 teaspoons of margarine/butter

1 teaspoon of anise/fennel

1 teaspoon of salt

360 ml finely ground maize flour (1 and 1/2 cups? Approximately)

650g wheat flour (it's not that exact; add flour little by little until the dough stops sticking to your hands)

Activate your yeast in a pan with the warm milk, sugar and water. Meanwhile, mix the oil, egg, anise, salt and margarine in a bowl. Once the yeast is bubbly (alive! Eating your sugars!), put it into the bowl and mix everything. Sift the maize flour into the bowl, then put the wheat flour little by little until you have a well-mixed dough that doesn't stick to your hands. Knead until it's smooth, then let it rest for 30 minutes. After that, shape it into the form you want and let it rest another 30 minutes. Sprinkle maize flour over the loaves, bake it at a 200 Celsius heat until golden.

why is being on pace so important for every study program? why do they care about complicated assignments and scores and deadlines and limited amount of attempts? if you display skill they should let you pass no?

A lot of us were raised with the idea that “its normal for wives/children to get hit! it helps them learn– only white folk don’t get beaten when they misbehave”. That’s not true, white people aren’t the only ones who deserve a safe and abuse free environment. Black and brown people can and do have loving families.
