The band cranes

Listen. shoegaze is fucking dope. not novel but it’s even better when it’s scary. I would recommend the song Thursday on Wings of Joy. The whole album is just out of control. The beautiful nymphette vocals that sound right out of the BCE, the liberal strings, the suspense, the drama. sounds like taking one too many oxycontin. last time i did that it was 2016 but i was listening to spooky black x clams casino (obviously)

mo dotti - opaque

perfect new shoegaze record - extreme fuzz and mellow moments. especially obsessed with the “carnelian” & ”wave goodbye”

SWIRLIES - WHAT TO DO ABOUT THEM

american shoegaze pioneers i think most ppl into the genre have heard of them but it’s worth putting here. it’s not as talked about as their other albums but it’s really unique lo-fi shoegaze/noise pop. all their music has such a distinct sound so give their discography a listen if you haven’t already.

random cookie recipe i got in a baking group years ago

not specifically a christmas cookie but i make these around christmas. the chocolate chip to flour ratio is wild lol 1 cup unsalted butter - room temperature 3/4 cup + 1tbsp  granulated sugar 3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed 2 large eggs 1/4 tsp lemon juice 1 & 1/4 tsp vanilla 1 tsp baking soda 1/2 cup of rolled oats 1/4 tsp cinnamon 2 & 1/4 cups flour 1 tsp salt 2 & 2/3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips 1 & 3/4 cups chopped nuts (pecans recommended) mix together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. beat in eggs, vanilla, and lemon juice. blend in flour, oats, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. fold in chocolate chips & chopped nuts (it will be absurdly difficult). refrigerate dough overnight. scoop & bake at 300F for ~20 minutes* *they don’t spread if you refrigerate the dough for 24 hours & keep the remaining dough refrigerated as you’re baking them. also, i make the dough balls big (like a scoop of ice cream) & bake 8 at a time, so they can take several minutes longer than 20 minutes 😅 it’s a little time consuming but worth it imo
