the tiniest of problems but i still like to complain
sowans!
i am so sorry
Weald & Woe and Fiadh were very excited to be able to collaborate with the incredible Amy Hastings on this design, which has been added to their merch store as a preorder to be printed in October 💘 wealdandwoe.bandcamp.com/merch/there-...
autumn aka despairing my nutmeg allergy season
ok but pizza crunch
i support this!
i’m so sorry we should make our own
LFG SHORTBREAD
one of my unpublished blogs it’s on the history of shepherds pie!! i have to finish that one
so the food my thesis was on is also a scottish dish and there is SO much scottish lore on it, and oats!
frame this
it was SO present in almost every district that i was surprised i had never heard of it after several years of studying traditional texts! so that’s when i dived in :)
one thing i noticed was the ubiquitousness of oats alongside the expected potatoes, and well outside of the expected northern regions known for its production. i also noticed references to an oat food called sowans, flummery and bull-milk in both english and irish in every county represented
while not a traditional source there is so much rich regional nuance and data in these archives (all available ad duchas.ie, much is transcribed but there are tons that are either just scanned or still not uploaded, primarily the irish language documents)
most of the accounts come from older folks (the very oldest born at the tail end of the Famine) who become an alternative primary source on food culture in the 19th century as well as during the Famine period
there are thousands of pages of oral histories recorded in the 1930s by folklorists and school children (37-39) as part of a governmental effort and “food” was one of the assigned topics. many of these pages are in irish and have yet to be transcribed
shifting this here so i can nerd out properly! i started research on irish food in undergrad and then started building a digital database for nyu of global irish diaspora recipes as well as pulling food mentions from the national folklore collection’s archives - plus a blog!
i’d wear it all
this made me happy and now i hope it makes you happy too
i was until i saw the price
yes!
you are an angel
happy birthday!!!
i want to live in a world where the reaction is “oats, of course, the most important grain to ever have existed and the backbone of medieval monastic societies in northwestern europe”
are you going to do more?
the only time i’d be fine with this level of consumerism
you know it had to be
😑
and yet
has anyone ever had just one bowl
ok we need to talk
THIS IS WHY I HAD TO DO IT
oh hell yea!!!!
barely
no u
i bet you learned a lot of cool stuff tho!! what did you focus on?
girl thank you this is why i’ve been so shit at emails 😭 your positivity & encouragement helped get me through this last hurdle
it’s all a challenge, what are you studying???
thank you 💕
OATS!!!!!!
🥰
so happy to share this & another apology for being behind on communication while i finalized my thesis. thank you to family, friends & faculty for your patience, supporting me & allowing me to achieve this with full-time work, the label, and through an entire pregnancy🥹💜
Any day can become a good day, especially if you disappear into the forest and open up a tea shoppe and used bookstore that caters primarily to the wild folk of the wood.
2 and 4
never thought i’d have a mini potty launched at my head but here we are
omg i did not need this at 9am

this and never seeing a dumb ig story again
you’re on the right track the comment section here has almost done me in www.facebook.com/share/r/1GDm...
i was a big fan of mary shelley, which came before barrowlands & i recommend checking out maryshelley.bandcamp.com/album/in-the...
i apologize i feel like my comment was awful, i should clarify that the early 2010s online noise scene was terrifying!!!
chat have i earned it
noise is terrifying
if you think enoch burke belongs in a classroom kindly block me
and all i had to do was slap some text on a bunny with a sword and hit post
that is so beautiful 🦋 also a lowkey little gandalf moth moment
also i want to say i always get really excited when you review a band im working with bc i know that review will be well written, fair and have valid points worth discussing regardless of the rating
ok this is so sweet and ideal and important for a community to evolve - conversations NEED to be critical and differing opinions SHOULD be shared respectfully because how else can we learn, empathize with others experience and just be better overall?
THERE ARE DOZENS (three) OF US
i’m obsessed with your evenstar
just decided i was gonna keep yapping about whimsy & hope so i wouldn’t fall into a deeper depression when i realized that has been the point this entire time
me and my mom have the same hand tattoo but when i got my neck done she just looked at me and said “you know i don’t like that” and we haven’t spoken about it since
just tag me next time

this is so valid
i actually get nervous looking at your comment section (complimentary) i don’t know how you deal!!!!
leaving the genre related fb groups has already done wonders for my mental health
the first one x 2 and actually a bit of the third
YES THANK YOU the one site i kept getting redirected to had a paywall
i did glance at this one but i think i was thrown off bc of all of the subheadings in the section i was sourcing & also that i kept seeing three different “authors” being used on university sites - i am also quoting from letters enclosed in correspondence WITHIN these papers 🫠
god forbid a girl has hobbies
i appreciate you!! this has been surprisingly difficult to navigate and every example i could find was a few decades old
i mean
i appreciate this SO much
i just realized how normalized waking up to screaming has become
ty!!!!
you deserve it!! we only have my mom (who i love & adore) but we also live with her & relatives equipped for children are far so i will live vicariously through you
oh hey (wearing a hanes girls training bra)
@violethourlabel.bsky.social
this is literally what i’m doing is this a universal (nightly) expedience?
i’m always so relieved to get the little ones in bed & then 20 min later i miss them 😭
it’s submitted 🎉
practicing radical acceptance (poop & vomit so far & it’s only 8:30am)
Correspondence and Accounts relating to the different Occasions on which Measures were taken for the Relief to the People suffering from Sacarcity in Ireland, between 1822 and 1839 [734] in Parliamentary Papers: (Volume 13) Scarcity in Ireland. Session 22 January - 28 August 1846. Vol. XXXVII, 1846.
no one does 😭😭😭 i actually can’t find a single example of the basic session paper format even using the site you sent me
it’s my fault i should have been more specific!
they’re enclosures within personal letters in an appendix to a parliamentary session subheading 😭
maybe if i make it up no one will notice
i already tried 😔
i can help with that
does anyone know how to cite parliamentary papers (chicago)?
