It’s my wife’s grandfather’s birthday so we usually spend the weekend at his house playing cards and painting.

Fuck I want a GF to cook for so bad.

Nothing. Again.

Cringe holiday for vapid people

>>21861655
The only people who hate valentine's day are the terminally unlikable losers who only ever experience it alone

>>21861675
Most the board is people like that but it's still ok to have some fun and make something fun.

>>21861418
temper your chocolate with care, you can add coco butter or sugar or powdered milk. you will need to walk in your recipes yourself.

Bro there's a cock in this image.

Candied citrus! Maybe I can give it so some friends.

>>21862004
i know right? q(≧▽≦q)q(≧▽≦q)

I didn't expect this to be so depressing.

>>21861418
Sex isn't real. If it doesn't exist, then not having it doesn't affect me in any way. If anybody talks about fucking, they are lying.

Still thinking, got matchmaked through friend with really nice qtie and she'll coming to my town for the valentines, any suggestions?

I may make old babylonian beetroot stew because it is awesome and we are both into history and reenactment, but making it just for two is kind of a pain

>>21862937
it's a valentines day post on 4chan what the hell were you expecting

>>21862957
Only you are talking about it.

Chocolate box.
Orange filled.
Rum filled.
Coffee bean.
Mint infused .... Maybe getting the right oil is tricky.
Colored chocolate drizzles for looks based on flavor.
Bed of candied peanuts, all in a nice box.

I don't have a GF and this is all off my diet kek. Might kill myself once I get it boxed up.

>>21861418
>I need to know how to dramatically improve store bought confectionary chocolate
Like a block of chocolate for making confections or already made chocolates?

>and something very light and fluffy I can make at home. Something you could eat a bit more of without it being overwhelmingly sweet, points if it's also colorful.
Homemade whipped cream is great and you can make it light in sweetness, could work well as either cream puffs (segsy and you can add chocolate drizzle) or something like strawberry shortcake

>>21863209
Sounds like a patrician selection, I’m sure you’re a good dude and should stick around.

>>21863585
Store bought chips or blocks used to make chocolates at home. I i might add more coco butter to it but that's all I can think of.

Thanks that's a good idea.

And also thanks, I'll be here for a long time.

>>21863209
Add caramel filled to the list. Too easy to do and a very easy replacement if one of the other ones doesn't work out.

Elk heart seared to medium rare with chimichurri. Bosh.

>>21863604
But with who?

>>21861418
You'd better be gay because women are cunts. I'm not gay BTW, I've just been with quite a few women.

Cornish hens are sold in pairs. Veggy roast and serve. It's my go to.

>>21861418
>What are you making for Valentine's Day?
nothing it's stupid holiday. even my wife thinks so.

>>21861997
well you would be the one to find it.

>>21864715
Ok fun police.

>>21864718
oh yeah... buying cheap crappy candy and overly priced flowers and giant stupid teddy bears that NO ONE wants all to appease vapid women with princess syndrome is so much fun.

>>21864726
This is a thread about hand making your own stuff for the day so your point is moot.

Going to make chocolate covered strawberry for girl at work

>>21864730
oh my sweet summer child... no one here does that.

>>21864733
Multiple people in the thread are 2 moot points.

That sounds adorable
Maybe talk to her about historical recipes and desserts she’s interested in trying, then surprise her with them on Vday?

>>21862004
You'll live

>>21861418
Leaning toward steak au poivre with asparagus and risotto; chocolate genoise cake with ganache filling and chocolate buttercream icing for dessert. Might even bust out a raspberry sauce for it. I'm thinking I've got that blowjob on lock, and there will not only be eye contact, she'll even act like she kinda likes it after that meal.

>>21864899
Good luck anon. Sounds great to me.

Idk but I have a lot of little cast irons. One small dish in each one. Something that just looks nice.

>talking about something is the same as believing in it
I too remember being in 2nd grade. They really were simpler times. But, I'm still glad I was able to go through cognitive developement and reach adulthood. I'm sorry you can't, but maybe your stunted intellect prevents you from fully comprehending your status. I hope this is the case for your sake.

>>21866402
> sex isnt real.
do you believe that?

>>21866417
I do. I have a memory of doing it once, but it had to have been a dream. Because it's not real. Like the Loch Ness monster.>>21866402

>>21866444
I hadn't realized. Thanks for the info.

>>21866451
Sure thing, make sure to spread the word whenever the opportunity presents itself!

>>21866502
Congrats on your incel status?

>>21866502
What kind of cookies?

>>21866520
I would be more shocked if she wasn't surprised lol. It's a pretty unbelievable fact when presented at face value, but after some sould searching I ended up doing the math and found the conclusion: sex is not a thing that actually ever happens. It's all lies and illusions! Once you realize this, a lot of other things start to make sense too, like why chimpanzees can't talk and how butter is actually good for you.
But yeah, I wish you and your girlfriend the best of luck in your new understanding that sex isn't real.

I'll post some chocolate expeemants tomorrow.

>>21863599
Nah, caramel is boring.

moot "open to debate"

>>21867892
>>21867892
The only point proposed is that the point is moot. The only debate is the mootness of the topic, not the topic it's self.
unless you are implying no one could ever call something a moot point without being hypocritical.

I think I got the temper right.

>>21861418
I'm thinking of making a dark chocolate cheesecake. It's been a long time since I made it.

>>21868365
Hope it comes out nicely!

Why did no one tell me caramel is hell! Holy fuck it almost ruined my fucking pot

>>21868538
Are you making it dry or wet? When it finally gets a good brown it can burn really fast if left on

>>21868538
Do you really have a pot especially for fucking

>>21868589
This guy doesn't have a fur fukin kek.
Every one point and laugh.

>>21868587
No it just got in a place I didn't think I could get cleaned out. I made it way too dry, didn't burn has great flavor. I had to just keep adding corn syrup with it on a double boiler till is set semi soft.

>>21868587
It's not hell, it melts in water.

If it’s “involuntary” due to be a seething retard and not necessarily looks, women can definitely be incels

Butterscotch is a yummy flavor desu
