Faerie Bread

Hello!
In the facebook group Neopets Nation, Lavinia Nastas mentioned it, Katrina Henriques showed it, I set my sights on it and I knew I HAD to make it!
This is the Fairy Bread - The sprinkles on top are so crunchy! And I have to thank the Australian: first for mentioning this on the group and second for inventing such a funny treat!
Not difficult to make at all, just make sure to use butter, real butter. And not margarine ;)
Enjoy!
The food will be rated from 1 to 5 stars, meaning:
⭐ - This could be part of gross foods! Ugh :(
⭐⭐ - Waste of ingredients but edible...
⭐⭐⭐ - Ok. Not my favourite thing but also not that bad
⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Now this has a lot of neopotential :D
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Wow! Was this created by fairies?! Yummy!
Now remember that this is, obviously, my opinion only ;)

Faerie Bread - ⭐⭐⭐⭐ - This cute bread receives four stars because, even though it's not the most delicious thing in the world, it is super funny, super cute and it still tastes good. Simple as that :) It just doesn't have five stars as rate because the crunch from the sprinkles actually hurt my teeth a bit :/

Sugared Meatballs

Hello!
Today I'm bringing you a gross food called Sugared Meatballs - Eww yuck, who would want to eat sugared meatballs?
This was mentioned by Erin A Lucy on the facebook group Neopets Nation. And her questions are legit, I mean, we do indeed eat sweet and sour dishes and we add sugar and other types of sweetners to our foods. So, how yucky could these sugared meatballs be, actually? 
I ended up volunteering to cook my version of these meatballs and share my opinion. I used beef and pork meat, lard, eggs, bread crumbs and sugar for the meatballs, then I cooked them with a soy sauce, mirin, sugar, garlic and ginger paste, sake and rice vinegar sauce to give them a sweeter glaze, and I finished them with three different coatings: regular granulated sugar, cinnamon sugar and powdered sugar. 
Here's the video.
Enjoy!

Sugared Meatballs - ⭐⭐⭐⭐ - ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 1/2 - I have different ratings for the different coatings of the meatballs. My favourite was definitely the one covered with powdered sugar and that received four and a half stars. The others (cinnamon sugar, regular sugar and with no coating, just the glaze sauce) received four stars. Here's the deal: the one covered in regular sugar was overpoweringly sweet, the cinnamon sugar one could have had more cinnamon to make a difference and stand out somehow but the cinnamon in it only ended up cutting the sweetness from the sugar, the one with only the glaze could be perfectly served as a dish in a meal because it was not that sweet and my favourite, the powdered sugar one was a very nice balance between sweet and salty. All in all they weren't yucky at all and after some considerations I would definitely serve the sugar covered ones as an unusual sweet treat, and the ones with only the glaze as part of a dish in a meal.

Seaweed Omelette

Hello!
Today I bring you the Seaweed Omelette - Add a bit of green to your diet by eating seaweed with your omelette! This must have been funny to eat. And somewhat exotic. Unfortunately it wasn't me who ate it but my boyfriend said it was one of the most delicious omelettes he has ever eaten so... I trust him on this 😁
Enjoy!

Seaweed Omelette - ⭐⭐⭐⭐ - my boyfriend rated this with four stars because despite being something he is not used to eat in an omelette, he still thinks is delicious. Different... but delicious!
