[Start ID. Two drawings of the same person, humanoid but with honey bee wings, antennae, and miscellaneous other traits. The first one was drawn December 25, 2020, two years ago, and the second is a redraw from just before the time of posting. In the first drawing, the person faces the camera, holding a cup of tea, posed against a blank background. She wears a fluffy top and boots, her entire character in golden tones. The second drawing keeps similarities with the first, but her vague outfit has been changed to a jacket and sweatpants, and she is waving to the viewer and smiling warmly, with the text "TWO YEARS" behind her in green.

Happy second anniversary-slash birthday, both to my first piece of digital art ever and to a beloved character and world.
(And thanks @ameliejoyart for making it happen. <3)
I was hurrying so I'm not sure if this is the most accurate representation, but I've joined the summary and here are some of my favorite pieces from 2021!

Aunt Mary's Cookies - Desserts - No-Bake Cookie
Chocolate-Pumpkin Spice Cake - Pumpkin Cake There are few flavors as delicious as chocolate and pumpkin, and this cake combines the two flavors—along with additional pumpkin pie spice and chocolate chips—for a satisfying fall dessert.
Simplest Hot Chocolate with Maple Syrup and No Refined Sugar The only ingredients in this simplest hot chocolate recipe are vanilla extract and maple syrup, which are both naturally sweet.
Basic Truffles - Truffle You can customize this basic truffle filling by adding your own flavorings or extracts. This can be used to fill chocolate shells that you make using candy molds, or you can roll it into balls and then cover them in powdered sugar, cocoa, sprinkles, or other toppings.
Chocolate Cheesecake II This recipe, which combines cocoa and chocolate chips with the usual cream cheese, yields a cheesecake that is chock-full of chocolate goodness.
Dark Rye Bread - Yeast Bread This recipe for bread made in a machine calls for caraway seeds for flavor and a little cocoa to darken the loaf.

Closet Walk-In Walk-in closet - mid-sized traditional men's walk-in closet idea with raised-panel cabinets and dark wood cabinets
These cookies were the $#@&! growing up! I swear, me and my mom would pick these up while going grocery shopping at Aldi and no joke, we would probably eat the whole container's worth of cookies before the end of the week. They're basically just chocolate filled biscuit cookies in the packaging equivalent of a Pringles can, but these SLAP.
Happy new years!🎉🎉🎉
I drew Cocoa cookie to celebrate the new year she's just so cute!!

SEMI-FINALS
Silver Crystal
Is it really that important?: Yes
Why is it important?:
It is incredibly powerful as an offensive weapon and as a healing item. The villains and heroes spend the whole first season seeking it out.
Cocoa (Hot chocolate)
Is it really that important?: At first you think it isn’t, but then it becomes like the most important object ever
Why is it important?:
Okay, so I’m hoping this counts, because the object isn’t a specific cup of cocoa but rather the cocoa itself, which is made new and served and drank in a variety of different cups by a variety of different people throughout the course of the series. Despite it being *technically* new cocoa every time it appears, it is still the same recipe and serves the same purpose in the story. The cocoa comes from a French cafe and is frequently imported and drank by the one of show’s main character: The Interviewer. The Interviewer adores the drink, and consumes and ungodly amount of it. To express his enthusiasm for it, he has described it as “as pure as the angles”, “divine as deity”, and “sweet as sin”. He frequently offers it to his clients, who are people that come to him asking to fake their death and start over with a new life. Almost all of these clients, as well every other character in the show that tries the cocoa, remarks on how incredibly delicious it is. For the first couple seasons, you think it’s just a funny running gag. As time goes on, however, it is revealed that the cocoa actually has magic healing properties. The recipe involves adding a substance nicknamed “Patience” that can fix wounds and cure illnesses and just make you feel better in general. That is one of the main reasons everyone loves it; though I’m sure the cocoa by itself was probably pretty good too. Additionally, the reason the Interviewer drinks so much of it is because he is actually over 3,000 years old, and has been using the cocoa to keep himself alive and basically immortal. This becomes very plot relevant when the Interviewer no longer has access to the magical version of cocoa and starts to die because of this lack.
ROUND 4
the updated autopsy report
Is it really that important?: yes
Why is it important?:
it's iconic, and it's a much memed line in the fandom. also, it's actually plot-relevant, as it resets all the progress that you've made and really shows the shitty tactics edgeworth uses in court.

Hi,
I started this blog, because I feel like I'm depressed.
That is "unhappy and without hope" as Cambrige Dictionary puts it.
The state of sadness is definetely longer than 2 weeks, I'd say.
If I'm not mistaken, it's been over 5 years (plus a few weeks).
I may return to this and explain the thing I believe to be the cause of my emotional state. Of course there was a break more or less through the year 2021, because I just read books all the time in hope to escape reality and finally acomplish something. And I did. But 2022 came with new disappointments, lost "friend(s)?" and not enogh will to read so many books again.
I would like to add a few words about myself as an introduction, but I don't think I know mysef well enough to be able to do it this instant.
So I'll just write down some things that I like in no particular order: - cold (it's been way too hot recently) - tea (I'm going to take a sip right now) - jigsaw puzzles (today I started doing one I wanted to for a few years now, but the last time I gave up after putting only a little bit together) - books (their smell, feeling them in my hands, flipping through the pages and sometimes reading) -cocoa (recently mainly because of The Amelia Project; you MUST check it out or I'm going to throw USB sticks with it at you and run away) - podcasts (I know it's pretty unexpected; yesterday I discovered I Am In Eskew and I love the vibes; the depressed and ominous vibes that is) - music (at the moment I'm listening to Dr. Sunshine Is Dead; as I said, the depressed vibes; recently I also listen a lot to AlicebanD) (sip) - idk, not sweating? it's way too hot for this time of day - old Hitchcock movies ( so far I've seen in this particular order: 1. Strangers On A Train (1951) (yes, because of The Amelia Project) 2. Rope (1948) (it's great; to sum up: be gay do crime) 3. Rear Window (1954) ( I really like the way it's filmed, I almost felt like I was one of the tennants of the building)
and after I'm finished with this I'm going to finish watching "Dial M for Murder (1954)" ( I started yesterday and stopped at Intermission; I wonder how he's going to frame his wife, I'm not smart enough to figure it out only from what I've seen so far)
It's funny that all the Hitchcocks films I've seen so far can be connected by starring actors/actress: 1&2 Farley Granger 2&3 James Stewart 3&4 Grace Kelly - Dirt Poor Robins (great band, and Queen Of The Night is increadible, I'm just listening to Komm Jesu rembering what happens in the movie)
- you made it so far?
♠♣♦Congratulations♦♣♠
Anyway, I think that's it for now. I'm going to watch "Dial M..." after tagging this post.
Ciao
PS: Yes, the blog's name comes from that The Guess Who song in case you were wondering.
I waited, and I have been rewarded! •v•
This week, Kumamon brings a simple but effective solution to last week’s problem! The revamped hot cocoa flavor comes with bits of cookie mixed into the milky chocolate coating. This is the perfect addition to make a mediocre flavor much more enjoyable! The crunchy bits remind me of dunking cookies into my hot chocolate as a kid, and I love it.

This week’s special guest is Kumamon, here to introduce hot cocoa pocky. I love the concept, but struggle to see how this flavor really stands out, aside from having a chocolate biscuit stick. There are a lot of ‘milky’ chocolate flavors so I am not sure what exactly could make this cocoa flavor stand out on its own. Luckily, Glico seemed to think the same thing– come back next week to see how they amped up this flavor! ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆ ( 3 / 5 )
We’re switching it up this Wednesday, and am taking a break from our midi detour. The ‘excellent’ chocolate pocky is..a bit of a mystery.This limited edition flavor claims to be some sort of fancier (sophisticated?) dark chocolate coated with cocoa powder on a chocolate stick. (sounds very similar to a flavor I’ve yet to review here, but ok) This flavor was incredibly bitter, with the dark chocolate and powder not having much sweetness to balance them out. The cocoa powder also melts and makes an absolute mess very easily. Maybe if I was more of a dark chocolate fan I would have enjoyed it more, but alas.
