When someone gives the advice of “don’t be afraid to disappoint your parents” they don’t just mean taking music theory in college or starting a YouTube channel.
It also means wearing things they might not approve of. Using accommodations that they might not think you need. Not falling for their guilt trips. Eating when you’re hungry, not when it suits them and their idea of your weight or health. Making your own friends instead of seeking the stamp of approval from them.
Of course, some parents are stricter than others, and some use abuse to keep you from expressing yourself. But do what you can, even if it seems small.
Otherwise, when your parents are no longer in the picture, you’ll try to find it somewhere else to get validation. A strict boss, an abusive partner, a selfish friend.
Going against your parent’s wishes is developmentally healthy. Not doing so stunts your independence and self-regulation. You shouldn’t be living to constantly please others, even the people who love you.

What's that poem about the cockroach and the moth where the cockroach is like "I wish I've ever wanted anything the way that moth wanted to burn itself up in that lantern" because we had to read that in high school and it still fucks me up to this day

As lunar new year approaches, I'd like to share my mom's Chinese new year cake recipe. It's probably more like a pudding, as definition, but we call it a cake. This makes the perfect "not too sweet" nian gao. And it also doesn't stick to your teeth like a lot of nian gao. Edit: Recipe has been edited to include metric measurements as well as provide some dietary notes such as being gluten free.
2024 blaze edit: my mom had a massive stroke last March and it left her barely able to walk. She was an incredible cook and her head is full of the most wonderful recipes. I just felt this year, it was more important than ever to share some of those recipes so that even though she isn't able to cook for others herself, she can be cheered by the knowledge her recipes are still making ppl happy.

Mom’s Chinese New Year Cake (Nian Gao)
Yield: 3 cakes in 7” aluminum pans
Ingredients:
1 cup (250 ml) brown sugar
1 cup (250 ml) milk (cow milk can also be substituted for a plant-based milk if you prefer)
1 cup (250 ml) coconut milk
½ cup (125 ml) oil
3 eggs
1 bag glutinous rice flour (400 g)
1 tsp (5 ml) baking powder
Directions:
Grease three 7” pans and set aside. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Mix together sugar, milk, coconut milk, oil, and eggs. Then stir in dry ingredients and blend until smooth. You don’t have to worry about overworking the batter as it is made with glutinous rice flour, not wheat flour.
Divide it evenly amongst three greased pans.
Bake @ 375°F (190°C) for 40-50 minutes. All three can be baked at the same time in the oven. Just rotate where they are in the oven halfway for even browning.
Notes:
Cake should have nice brown crust on top and glutinous squishy sticky core.
Tastes better the next day and once fully cool.
If you don’t want a bunch of leftover coconut milk from the can, use the entire can of coconut milk and then add enough milk to get up to a full 2 cups (500 ml) of liquid.
Don’t skimp on the coconut milk. The recipe is simple enough that you will taste the difference.
This recipe is gluten free. Glutinous rice flour isn’t related to gluten.
If you try it, let me know how it goes! I'd love to see.

new favorite choc. chip cookie recipe!!!!! with a little note on browning butter.
you can sub normal butter for the browned butter -- it will be less flavorful dough, but still very good. you can also sub all purpose flour for the ⅔ cup bread flour; they will be less chewy but still good.

BROWN BUTTER BIRD COOKIE
1 cup cane sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup butter, browned ✿
2 eggs
cream together.
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
3 tsp vanilla extract
2 ½ cups all purpose flour
⅔ cup bread flour
chocolate chips, to taste
add to mixture, combine. cover & chill in freezer for at least an hour.
preheat oven to 375° F. shape into balls, place on baking tray. bake for 8 minutes. enjoy!
✿ BROWNING BUTTER
add to saucepan over med-low heat. let melt.
stir continuously to avoid scorching.
it will begin bubbling and frothing as water boils off. when the butter particles are golden brown and it's caramel-smelling, remove from heat.
add a couple ice cubes to replace lost water.
let cool to room temperature before using. or you will scramble the eggs in the dough...
The problem with having OCs is that sometimes you wanna read about your little guy being in situations but unfortunately he is YOUR little guy and no one is gonna put him in that situation but you. Tragic.
