It's coming close to a year since I started working on this "little" personal project that was supposed to be something quick and silly. This Ivysaur is one of four band members. Maybe if I know people actually like this project I'll feel more motivated to get it done

Rice makes you happy

I don't think I know what goa is... Which southern european cuisine are you referring to? I can't think of any that is similar to Indian cooking
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes, I cook with rice all the time
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
YES lmao
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
According to her, it's less of a thing in Sicily than other parts of Italy
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
I'm totally biased but Indian cooking is definitely one of my favorites. But so is Italian
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
I do that enough without being cursed lol It is true though that it's been fun to learn about how different the approaches to cooking are between Indian and Italian. Indian cooking is maximalist, ALL of the flavors. Italian cooking is minimalist, just a few ingredients.
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
I've tried samosas with quite a variety of things in them, but I don't think tomatoes are one of those things. Tomatoes are used A LOT in Indian cooking though
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
yes
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
Her famjam is Sicilian, apparently they don't do rice as much there?
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
She's had it, and I asked her about it. Apparently risotto is more of a Northern Italy thing and her family is Sicilian where they don't have it as much
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
We make pasta sauces from scratch when we make pasta. The first couple of times I tried I put everything in, like Indian cooking My gf informed me that the Italian method is to have very few high quality ingredients, and I think I agree that's the best way for pasta sauce

The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
I asked her about it and she said those are mostly a northern Italy thing. Her family is Sicilian and apparently rice isn't as big a thing there
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
Pasta and pizza are things I feel most people are familiar with. What's been fun to learn about is the stuff outside of that. She makes a fantastic fennel and tomato sandwich
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
She's had it, but rarely. Her mum isn't big on rice
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social)
My girlfriend is Italian and I'm Indian, we've been exploring each other's cuisines and it's been a lot of fun. One thing that's wild to me is how infrequently she's eaten rice. It hasn't been a big part of her diet. Ya gotta have rice it's so good. So I've been teaching her Critical Rice Theory

(5/4) Oh~ And try to make your compliments passive, like it's something you just wanted to say to them and don't require anything in return. "I love your dress by the way!" "Cool shoes, I hope you're having a great day!" "Hey I just wanted to say that tattoo is awesome, cheers fam"
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes! I was actually thinking of adding another part to mention exactly that! Passive statements, by-the-ways, just-so-you-knows, kind of things. Not letting it hang like you're prompting them to say something to you
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
(4/4) And feel free to ask if you think of anything I missed. I think it's really good to compliment strangers. Make where you live feel more welcoming, brighten someone's day, let people know that you do notice the things they put effort into and clearly care about! It's great!
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
3/4) Don't compliment strangers on their eyes, eye color, smile, natural hair color, general attractiveness, weight, skin tone, height, lack of height, boob size, muscles etc. Things they did not decide for themselves/things about their body are only things you should mention if you're flirting.
The Legend of ZimZamZom (@zimzamzom.bsky.social) reply parent
(2/4) Compliment strangers on their outfit, glasses, bag, tattoos, hair style, hair color (if it's clearly dyed), cute pet, style, make up, sense of humor if they're making jokes, their art if you can see it.

(1/4) How to Compliment Strangers -- A simple guide for people who are worried about coming off as creepy. Preface: Do it! You'll feel good, they'll feel good, you're putting positive energy into the world. There's really only one rule: Compliment people about things they have control over
