    I'm going to save them for a bit, but will probably spend on FQ cookies in the end

    I got 350 NC from CC this year. It's a nice bonus for sure; I may just spend it on FQ cookies as I never really have interest in customizing.

    What are you guys going to buy with the NC we got for participating in charity corner this year? Or are you planning to save it? I got 250 NC, and decided to go with the sweet dreams crib and a faerie quest fortune cookie! So happy to have the crib, I've always wanted it for my baby pet 😄

    Hahaha, I know, right? I guess a chemist came up with the name not someone from marketing. xD
    You totally should! Nothing quite like 'em once the weather cools. Easiest breakfast ever if you've got a tubful in the fridge, too. Though if you have a home-made pie hanging around that's a pretty strong contender too, isn't it.   How long did your apple pie last?
    That sucks about the chicken! Is it something you can have cold in salad?

    oh my GOSH those all sound amazing! Thank you so much for sharing! I'm glad to have another vegetarian recipe blog in my arsenal as well 😄
    This was my old go-to before I moved; it's great topped with sour cream and shredded marble. If you've got a big stock pot it makes a ton and it's easy to double for left-overs and meal prep. It's better with beer than vegetable stock, but it's so tricky to get alcohol here that I haven't made it in a grip. Hopefully one of you can use it!

    I wonder why the chicken didn't reheat well. 😮 Did it make the sauce taste funny? I second the rubbish-at-pastry comment so I'm also impressed by your pie!
    I also second the curry suggestion, and, SOUP! I live on my own so I'm all about the leftovers!
    I've made DamnDelicious stuff before *nods* It was a prawny/coconut milky/chili-ish thing... wait, there were zoodles too! It was good, but what I most remember is I used harissa rather than actual chilis and I put too much in and just about blew my head off. zoodles and prawns both being things that don't reheat well though, as I discovered with the rest of it. 😞
    A food blog I follow could be very helpful for you ladies. Easy Cheesy Vegetarian, I make quite a lot of her recipes, in particular:
    Lentil and Halloumi curry I use green lentils rather than brown as brown ones are tough to come by in the UK, I often chuck in some chickpeas too. Cauliflower and red pepper's my fave veg for this as it looks so pretty. Last time there was carrot and courgette too so it looked gorgeous.
    Mushroom stroganoff soup this recipe just serves 2 so it's easy to scale down for one. I often make it with a red pepper either as well as or instead of the mushrooms, and I stir some cottage cheese through it for creaminess as I don't have sour cream. I may also have accidentally used 1 tbsp of smoked paprika one time instead of 1tsp, but I had no regrets, it was amazing.
    Speaking of smoked paprika... this soup... red lentil and chicken soup I've made it with chicken and it's delicious. Though I dumped the raw thighs into the soup to poach as it cooked then hooked 'em out and shredded 'em, I didn't faff with cooking them separately as the recipe says. But as I have no access to good chicken I've stopped buying it. This recipe is still my go-to though; I just switch the chicken for a can of black beans (or dried ones that I've cooked if I'm being super-efficient). Often a pack of halloumi goes into this too, it is SO. GOOD.
    Oven Baked Rice and Vegetables this sounds dull, IT IS NOT. Also this lady is FUN and her recipes are all great. Here's the quick vid the this recipe.
    I want to make this again now xD It's AWESOME reheated for breakfast with some fresh greens added and a fried egg on top. 😋 I make it with brown rice so it needs to cook for about a year (slight exaggeration) but Nagi is fab for recipe notes that cover all bases, so she gave directions for brown rice.
    And another soup recipe! Lemony lentil soup got sweetcorn in it so when it''s blended up it's an amazing golden colour 
    Just one more! lol. Spicy peanut and sweet potato soup 
    Three of the five blogs linked to here: Pinch of Yum, Recipe Tin Eats, and Easy Cheesy Veg - are where most of the recipes I use come from.

    Ooh! Totally inspired by this! I did not realise the sky full of stars works like this.
    *goes to waste a lot of time on DTI*  B)
      HA! This looks like some nether portal action on Minecraft. xD
    Ooh... now I'm rather enamoured with this very simple combo! 😮
    Not only is it very fitting for an alien to be quite happy up there on top of the clouds, but the stars overlay makes the cloudy sky background look all moody which I love! I think I'm going to try and make use of this combo myself.

    I recently moved into a one bedroom apartment by myself (love it so far!) and so now I'm learning how to cook for one! One of the biggest wins recently was pesto alfredo tortellini. So easy to make, lasts a few days, and so yummy! One of my biggest busts was honey chicken... it's delicious the first day, but heated up it's awful. And since fall is here now, I think I'm going to try making some pumpkin pie 😄 Made some apple pie a couple days ago - here is the result if you wanna see a picture! (Lol it is not very pretty, but the crust is made from scratch and it was so yummy!)

    If anyone knows any recipes with good leftovers feel free to share 😋

    Oh my gosh, that pie looks amazing! Pastry is so tricky and I'm glad it turned out!
    One of my go-to's is red curry, with whatever veg I can get on discount. This recipe is my favourite base for curry: https://damndelicious.net/2018/02/25/easy-thai-red-curry/, and since I don't eat meat I put mushrooms & frozen peas instead of chicken. It microwaves really well, too!
    And could you share the recipe? It sounds delicious!

    That outfit made me say "Well, hello Jafar" out loud, lol! It just made me think of the live-action version of Jafar from Aladdin, haha! I do agree that it could have been a Royal outfit!

    Not a fan of Skeiths or Stealthy, but it`s a solid colour that always seem to have effort put into it. I really, really love and appreciate that they`ve broken the outfit up into many different pieces - of the details of the outfit I like the protection on the tail spikes and the wings. The pattern on the trousers looks odd, like they have been sewn together. it looks like large seams to me.

    The tdn website has a really cool avatar page that lets you input all your avatar data from the neopets site. You can access it here Avatar Site. From there you can click on the "Your Counters" link to get your own counter. There are a variety of counters to choose from. The tdn team has really done a great job with the avatar page. :D Hope this helps.

    It's been posted already, and I know I'm probably biased as I have this one (and I'm a cat fanatic), but I like the Kadoatery trophy.

    The Avatar Collector trophy looks really nice too; I like the simplicity of it along with the golden outline.

    Too bad it's nigh unobtainable if you:
    - don't have an ancient account that participated in old events often enough to have the avatars from them
    - aren't extremely good at games which award avatars
    - haven't got the resources/NP to do certain things like Battledome (allowing you to participate in plots with battling) and purchase extremely expensive items that would also award avatars, etc.
