#UsingWorldAnvil

I had a long week of pondering how to tackle Food, Glorious FOOD! Unofficial Challenge to expand my worldbuilding and came up with several ideas. It sprouted with both, something sweet, and savory. Some products had to be purchased (I don't have my own source of bacon nor honey), but thankfully, the some could be foraged in the nearby forest. First tests will start this week with articles being published some next week or so.

Hot and cold, hot and cold. With early spring came earlier summer and the elderflowers and robinias are already blooming. Time to prepare some wild lemonade and flowers in pancake dough. Bird eye cherry is almost done blooming and I may be late for foraging flowers for oxidation and almond-like flavoured tea. Pine cones are green and tender and soon will be ready to make a pine-cone syrup. Little to no mushrooms, though... Let it RAIN!!!

I made a good progress with the article about taking inspiration from mushrooms but it's getting too big, so... I'll have to think of ways to break it down into smaller, easily consumable portions.

Categories got some love and with that a new thing learned -- each category has a page of its own. They can be customized via a drag&drop design tab. The default is Table of contents | Articles (blocks) | Maps/Timelines but unneeded fields can be dropped altogether. There are 5 custom content fields + the usual ones:

Still playing with it to logically navigate the readers and make browsing through the world much easier. But since for that I'll need index Tags, the changes are not implemented yet, and probably won't until a week or two (I fear that even more, but we'll see how it plays out).

No progress in this field, though the preparations are set up and aligned with the Food, Glorious FOOD! Unofficial Challenge.

Definitely taking part in Food, Glorious FOOD! Unofficial Challenge by moonflower-writing. Foraging wild plants gave me some ideas on how to cook something quirky and tasty. Fingers crossed I will be able to find something wild. If not, I'll just grab something from the market. A wild idea would be to chain several prompts together to make something delish. We'll see, we'll see.

Despite a fairly dry spring, there was enough rain for mushrooms to appear, so spring/summer mushroom foraging is likely to be on my list of "MUST DO" for the upcoming weeks.

An article or two about using plants and their toxic lookalikes for spicing up a story is under way!

May will be a good time to put Content Trees, Tags and Variables to good use. The plan is to focus more on Variables and prepare some standardized content, especially for the geographical regions. I have a plan for Generators as well but that's lower on the priority list.
