None right now, but that's a good choice! I like that, bday cake, orange sherbet, and neapolitan!

Mmmm…
Bday is good too.
(Okay ive eaten half the pint. I need to stop.)

(Yeah... That's more than a healthy amount!

Mmmmmm..... I used to have a few different favorites like moose tracks or triple chocolate or that candy cane peppermint one only available in the winter... but lately, I'd really just like a mint chocolate chip, chocolate, vanilla, or that cashew milk caramel chocolate mmmmm

Would you laugh if I said the only ice cream I've eaten in the past two years was homemade organic vanilla or chocolate ice cream? Really easy to make too. 😋😋😋

Raspberry gelato

Mmmmm good choice, @clasingla! I've had that and it is definitely delicious!😋

@Dragonfly102024
AHEM. Homemade?!
Can I plssssssss have the recipe???

yes yes i would like it to!

Easy peasy.... It also gives you a work out 😉.

• One gallon ziplock bag
• One quart ziplock bag
• 3 cups Ice (not to be consumed)
• 1/2 cup Half & half
• 1 TBSP Sugar
• 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract (or other flavoring)
• Rock Salt (they say 1/3 cup)

First off I usually double the milk/half&half, vanilla &sugar to make more. You can experiment with other flavors too. It's fun!

1. Fill the smaller bag with the milk/half&half, sugar, and vanilla. Squeeze out as much air as possible & seal it well. Squish the bag full of ingredients until all are combined. Set aside.
2. Fill the bigger bag with crushed ice (or regular if you don't have crushed ice) until about half full. Add the rock salt (or regular salt if you don't have it). THEN add/place the smaller bag inside the larger one. Seal the big bag, again squeezing out as much air as possible before sealing it.
3. Exercise time!!! Shake or toss the bag for 10-15 minutes or until the ice cream has thickened.
4. Once ice cream has thickened open the larger bag to remove the smaller bag of ice cream. Wah lah! Ice cream!

A couple suggestions... Wrap the big bag in a towel before you start shaking it or your fingers get cold. I've also used the same recipe but instead of bags, I'd throw the mixture in a small blender thingy (it has a lid) then put it in the freezer, checking on it every thirty minutes and reblending it... Or just leave it be and shake it every hour or so. Mmmmmm now I'd like to make some!

We finally got a recipe, guys!

We finally got a recipe, guys!

😁 ENJOY!😁

YUMMY.

I will def make this!!!!

Lol, yeah, @Ember2026 should know... 😉

That's exactly why I said: YUMMY.

(and @PokeMom244 if you do the shake thing, then I feel justified in eating it BECAUSE of all the calories you burn. Or you could play hot potato with the bundle.... I recommend triple bagging it in that case.)

Oh I didn't see that @Hades0918 ! Orange sherbet is delicious!!!! I like when you get a scoop of that and a scoop of vanilla…mmmmmm

We call that dreamcicle! Delicious!

Mmmmmm yes! Definitely dreamcicle!

Il try it! also is table salt rock salt?

Honestly @fineasmatei , I've only ever used sea salt or table salt because I don't have rock salt, whatever that is, lol. Ummm i think the salt just helps the ice stay colder? Idk if that makes sense?

thanks!

Oops, my bad, I DO know what rock salt is.... And YES!! Himalayan Rock Salt (the pink stuff) is my absolute favorite type of salt because of the flavor (I like salt ,😋). But I've never used it for ice cream making.

I have to pink one! should i try it with the table one or the pink one?

Ummmmmm pink one is more expensive. Ask your Mom first. You don't actually eat the salt. It's for the ice bag.

@Dragonfly102024 now you should put up the recipe for homemade sparkling water/soda! 😁

il try it again with my brother this time!

And on a completely unrelated note the words of wisdom for today is here! I'll make the weekly word tomorrow, so be sure to check that out when it's time!

Heehee! I was just over there when I was "notified" you commented! Yay! Perhaps notifications are working again?

🔥🐔

🔥🐔🔥 "Lava Chickeenn, Lava Chickeenn..."

🔥🐔🔥"LavalavalavalavalavaChicken!!!! 🔥🐔🔥

MUCHO CONGRATULATIONS to the newest and your very first ✨💥 Gold Ribbon💥✨!!!!! For none other then the one, the only, @Ember2026 's lava chicken aka BLAZIKEN!!!

😃 gracias Muchacha!

BACAWZIKEN!!

BACAWZIKEN!!!

LOL!!!!

🤣

And actually, my Blaziken's name is Torch

Gooooooooooooo TORCH!!!🎉🎉

I name mine either BlazeKicker (always knows Blaze Kick) or, what I've been using nowadays, Blaze (it's in respect to my DnD character)

NOT NICE PERSON WHO FLAGGED! This is posted on a WALL not in general areas. AND it IS POKEMON RELATED! It's about Blaziken whom she also just earned a gold ribbon in UNITE which is an OFFICIAL POKEMON GAME! Not spam. Take your flag off!

Cool! Mine is called Torch, because, well, I guess I wasn't very creative and thought it sounded cool. lol (Torchic) He was my best Pokemon in Emerald and carried me all the way to The Elite Four, I currently am at The Battle Frontier, now I should play that again... Anyways, Yes, he knows Blaze Kick too lol, He also knows: Mirror Move, Double kick, and Sky Uppercut!

did you see me stevens fire torchic song???

Ooh! Sky Uppercut is cool! I'd love to raise a Blaziken... I can't say mine is any more creative than yours! The name is literally just because of "Blaz(e)iken" lol. If I had one, my move set would be: Blaze Kick, Fire Punch, High Jump Kick, and Brave Bird. BUT if I could get my hands on Sky Uppercut I'll be forgetting High Jump Kick! Mirror Coat is an awesome attack that I didn't know Blaziken could learn! I wonder if Thur knew...

I'm following a few of your ... ahem. "Discussions".... you ok?

Yeah, I'm perfectly fine! I feel pretty dang good right now!

Ok.... I was worried. It seems I've been getting into too many "discussions" lately and I find myself getting hmmmm more sarcastic than positive … you should've heard me get into it last night on Unite... Oh man that was a doozy!! It got to the point I had to just leave the lobby and my hands were shaking.

I hope things get better! I haven't see any sarcasm from you here, so I think you're fine! If something is bugging you I'll listen to it!

Thank you, @Hades0918 , truely.

No problem! 😁

Yeah HIIIIII!!! @Dragonfly102024 !!!!!

Hi!!!!! 😁😁😁 It's good to see you all here again... I was getting .. lonely and talking/chatting to myself.. heehee…Now I can at least pretend someone is reading it, so I'm not technically talking to myself, again. (Yes, I have been known to do that, lol)

I just noticed that... Odd…

I don't have permission to like something on my own wall?!?!?!?! UGH!!!!! sigh I tried to like this @UnovanZorua but it won't let me 🥺

Sad mu—

🎻—

Gosh I have to stop doing this!

But it's funny!

I take the silence as a no...

I believe it is. 🙂. Don't be sad... Be HAPPY!!! 😁

Yay! 😁

going to the clifffs later today

Yaaaaaayyy! Rock shop time for me soon, very, very, very soon

onine right now

I saw. Good to know. I'll check for it later!

Hu?

Something that was in my profile

Have you contacted any mods yet, @Hades0918 regarding the extremely silly (not the word I want to use) amount of flags you just got today? How many? 200-300 today alone????

@Hades0918 The silence means I will continue on my sad music journey.

( @PokeMom244 I barely turned the private wall thing off,.…I don't think @Hades0918 even knows yet)

Oops... @Hades0918 was typing when I typed the previous message. YAY! 😁

: D

How you feeling? Think you did good? I bet you did!

Are you having a brain-drain moment? Lol, that used to happen to me after really hard exams....

(Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, @Hades0918.... Honestly, I just read the comments and I have no clue! I'm confused.)

Oh, okay

@Hades0918 I'm not sure.... I'm sorry. I'm still piecing it together. Let me read it again. Brb.

Okay

Maybe I shouldn't have let my wandering mind do any theorizing... I do not like the path we are all heading... too much division. I honestly wasn't even talking about those issues, it hadn't crossed my mind. And the way the last comment is worded is confusing because loving and accepting who you are on the inside could be said for either side of this debate. I don't even know if I'm saying that correctly. Sigh. Too much arguing like our ditto friend would say. .....

I'm tempted to go back and edit my comments to a blank, just because of the unintended consequences of my thoughts. Even though I didn't think i said anything wrong. But it seems to have been possibly taken the wrong way?

@Hades0918, Take a deep breath and find a calm place before you read anymore from that thread. Don't be like me (too quick to anger for some reason lately, I don't know why) and be you, the level headed one... IF you read more of that post finish the entire comment first. I'm thinking the mods might just take it down.... You might want to steer clear of it. Deep calming breaths please?

I won't lash out but I'm not sitting by silently if there is disrespect to LGBTQ+. You know, when I said "gender rights" I was referencing women, not trans. Volt is the one that brought up trans (maybe not by directly saying it but heavily implied). And me abd him has fought over LGBTQ+ in the past. This comment was in response to mine and he immediately said "actually, don't respond. I don't want conflict." I think he thought I wouldn't say anything because every time it happens in the past I say let's drop it because I don't want to fight. No, if he wanted to avoid conflict he would have removed that part of the comment before posting it! (Dang, I'm getting heated thinking of it...) But Monsta seemed like he was trying to be nice! Granted, he was still saying that trans should just accept their original gender, which is wrong, but I don't think he was trying to be rude about it. Sigh I always try to stay away from topics of heavy conflict, but this happened and I'm not just letting go anymore!

I understand. You need to do what is right. Just.... be careful. Stress can impact our health, seriously it does. (Your analysis of the comments is what I was thinking too, why didn't he change it immediately after rereading it? I also didn't realize there is/was past conflict over the same issues with them. Yeah I think MD was trying to not be rude about it. I think the thing is, is that it's a hard topic for people to understand unless they know someone or are the someone who is directly impacted by all of it. So then, all that's left are opinions based on experiences, personal belief systems, and how they view the world. I've said before that the younger generation deals with things we never even thought about because certain things/options weren't around back then. Sigh. Oh, I also live in a state where the rules are diff and so the debate about the laws concerning rights seems so far away..... you can probably guess which state. 😉. The realm people know due to where the server is when I'm first one ingame.lol. oops)

I don't want to jump to conclusions, but last night I got a flag on my comment for supporting trans right and it was after the sunglasses commented. Like, almost immediately after. I think it was him, but he hasn't even mentioned me so either he flagged me and then chose to ignore me or I'm reading to deeply into it…

You have a ditto friend and you never told me 🥺🤯💀. (also hades its part of our religion)

YES YES! 😁😁😁 and it's You @fineasmatei ..... Unless... Sniff.... Unless... Hiccup.... unless you don't consider me a forum/unite/minecrft/somedayTCGP friend? 🥺

(yeah, I understand the religion/beliefs thing because it is a major foundation, deeply ingrained, for many which is why this is a controversial subject)

Yes yes you my friend 😁

@fineasmatei I used to be Christian and I've never been hateful on them. I've read the Bible and never have I heard anything about anti-LGBTQ+ in it. Let me ask you something, though: Does God mess up? It is said that he makes everything perfectly, and your life is already planned. But if trans or gays were not supposed to exist, wouldn't that mean that he messed up? No, that means they are natural and part of his plans and creations. (You can delete this if you want, D, but that's something that I figured I'd bring up)

I realy dont what to argue but i know you want me to answer you. I dont realy have anything against them. I belive that God doesnt mess up. He never said your life was planed but He did say that He has a plan for you. Its your choice if you want to follow it or not.

Sigh So you think they are going against his plan… I won't say anything to avoid conflict. Just know, as I'm sure you already do, that I disagree.

Everyone has their own belifs. thats what makes everyone unique. also if you dont want to answer this then you dont have to. You said you used to be Christian what made you stop? also for that thing you said I've read the Bible and never have I heard anything about anti-LGBTQ+ in it. here is a quote from the Bible Leviticus 20:13 “If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.” (I know it sounds weird)

Hmm… Okay, well there is one. Point taken. This isn't me being rude, but I don't take that as fact because I don't believe. HOWEVER!!! I will harness my inner cousin and find a loop-hole. It doesn't say anything about two women or changing genders. Anyways, me changing is very personal, but the reasoning is easily "countered" by Bible versus, but to be frank I don't care. After I left Christianity and went back and reread it, I've realized it is not something that I want to follow, the current topic being one of many. While yes I agree that everyone having different opinions make us unique, I believe there is a difference between just an opinion and a hatred for someone that looks, acts, believes, and/or identifies a certain way. That's just negativity. Sigh Look, I try not to talk about these things here. Politics, religion, and LGBTQ+ I like to avoid because of the fact that I have strong opinions that many will disagree with, leading to fights similar to the one in the theories thread. I won't drop it unless someone else does because I won't let the injustices slide. We can end the conversation now if you want because I know 1: the topic probably makes you uncomfortable and 2: you don't like conflict and I don't know if you consider what we are currently doing a fight.

I dont think its a fight. just declaring opinions.

Okay, good. I agree with that

😁. It's because I'm a gamer, huh @Smellykiki ? Honestly, I believe you are only as old as you feel inside. The body ages, you have more life experiences but how you go forward and react to life is your choice.... and I choose to live on and stay young inside... then again, I was once called an "old soul" back when I was in my upper teens, soooo age is relative?

DUDE, EVERYBODY CALLS ME AN OLD SOUL RIGHT NOW IN MY TEEN YEARS!!! Anyways, I thought the same thing Kiki but she's talked about things that happened when she was a kid or in her teens years that means she's older than that. It was a shocking revelation for me.

SAME Hades but how old do you think I am

But people @Dragonfly102024's age normally say Back in my day (lol)

@Hades0918 , it's cuz we're cool like that 😎... (And great minds and all that 😉) (Feeling the vibes? 😁)

Probs

@Smellykiki I'm guessing upper teens?

@Smellykiki Hmm... 15 or 16. @Dragonfly102024 No diggity! (That's to say that I get what you're saying, no doubt about it. I think I used it wrong...) Oh, by the way Kiki I'm in my teens but say "back in my day." It makes me and my dad laugh.

actually..... @Smellykiki , people my parents' generation say "back in my days".... My generation says back in the days.... Big diff. Let me sing it for you.... Ahem..🎶 "Back in the days when I was young I'm not a kid anymore but some days I sit and wish I was a kid again" 🎶. (That was a popular song in highschool back in the days). Oh.... and there's another one that starts off as "I rememmmmbereeer, when we used to play..." (I'd type the rest but it's probably politically incorrect to reference how we used to play with waterguns/toy ones nowadays.

Bro, I thought we were about to break into Five Finger Death Punch "I remember... EEEEEEEEEEVERYYYYYTHIIIIIIIIIIING!!!"

LOL!

How about a raises hand for a fist bump...

@Hades0918 ... (They came out after college for me, but I was in my twenties 😎)

I can do that! Returns Fist Bump

How old do I seem? I'm occasionally told my vibes are like a fossil's (paraphrased and very exaggerated), so I'm curious to know how true that is.

Actually, you're only a bit older than you are. You've said you're in school, and I think it's High School. However, the amount of knowledge you have makes you seem older. I would say you're a wise mud-20s year old, but I think you're an extremely wise 16 or 17 year old

you guys calling me an "old soul" now but not far of

Also does CP have a Forums acc

Kiki: No, she doesn't. I tried to find a solution with Google but I assume tat didn't work because she's still not here

We tried again yesterday. Nope, same results. I'm sorry.

@UnovanZorua , I agree with @Hades0918 assessment.... You definitely seem to be wise beyond your years..… but how far beyond hmmmmmmmm that's the question? A fossil is a very very old thing (lol)

Dang to the CP thing... Also, what do you think her name would be here? I think "EmberPrincess2" would be cool!

Actually...... @Hades0918 , SHE JUST GOT IN!!! 🎉🥳🎉

OHMYGODSWHAT!?!?!? 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

(I deleted references to specific ages from this thread... age ranges are fine but let's not mention exact ages, ok? Thanks!)

🥳🥳
yayayayay!!!!!!

Okay, but now I need to know what y'all think my age range is@

YYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

@Hades0918 I honestly think You're 15 or 16. (I may be wrong)
I just feel like it.

@Hades0918 I think you're around 17.

Okay, Okay. @Smellykiki I feel your joy!

Now I wanna know how old y'all think my age range is.

Hmm... 13-15 @PokeMom244 Maybe (MAYBE) a bit younger but I think what I said is good

@Hades0918 is definitely old soul... But physical age of 16-18 with the wisdom, empathy, understanding and eloquence of someone much older. My goodness, I remember originally thinking you, Hades, were either last years of college or already starting out in the world when I first met you. But the compassion and good advice you shared with those here seemed to me like you were the older brother helping out those who needed someone to hear them. Lol, then you also fought like cr4zy creative fun with @Thur55555555555 and just reading it all cracked me up so much. To see/read the battles was epic, but to have you two include me in a few, well I was honored and happy, like cheesy smile happy. Thank you! 😁

🥹🥹🥹 Dang, now you got me cheesing! You're welcome!

@PokeMom244 ..... Hmmmm the comment you made something like "now I have a kitchen?" when we pretend defended it with a big mustard mess, made me realize you were probably not as old as I assumed. For some reason I thought you were older..... Maybe because you're so nice to everyone and like food as much as me?

@Dragonfly102024 🙂 That made me smile.

She has that effect on people! It's her amazing positivity and wonderful personality!

🥹😊😁awww shucks you two! Can I get a.... Ahem ..."Team Dragon Flame!" 🔥🐉🔥

"TEAM DRAGON FLAME!!!" 🔥🐉🔥

"Team dragon flame!!!"
🔥🐉🔥

🤓Erm acualy there is still a comment that mentions exact age

Where at?

Oops... Hmmm I'll try to find it. In this "thread"?

Found it! Sorry. I had to delete. Actually it mentioned two peoples exact age. Thank you for noticing, @fineasmatei !

LOL! I had mentioned the SAME thing to CP earlier. ,😁. It's all good. Another gathering spot for those here willing to brave my love of Unite and occasional rambles without the fear of most sticks and wavy things.

(Oh if you or anyone ever wants me to delete things off the wall, just let me know)

Eh, it's not worth stressing over. If you like what's on your wall then don't let someone else take it off.

Ok 😁 no stress no worries, right?

Does CP have an account on the Forums

She does now!

🎉🥳🎉

YES!!!! It must have at least a little bit of purple in it too 😉💜. Plus Dragonflies can represent spirit and change too.... Hmmmm....pondering

Okay, that would be pretty cool to incorporate that into its design! Yes, of course it needs purple! Maybe even a love for chocolate…

why not dragon bug

(i mean its the perfect oppurtunity dragon-fly plus we already have multiple dragon flying types dragonite, altaria, rayquaze, salamence) i think we need a dragon bug type

That feels like a Regional Flygon, though. (Or at least to me it does)

Hmmmmm pondering....

must… have….. dragon/bug yanmega line………

Flygon is a dragon fly isnt it

i think its part ground

Still, it needs to have some purple in the design...💜
