Hello. C J here. I’ve typed a lot over the last few days mostly because I took a break from typing video game scripts. The Chapter One dialogue needs more time to plan so I took that typing stamina limit and applied it to marketing. Chapter One is going well but there are some technical things I need to figure out first about what building the dialogue happens in and when it happens. I am using Minecraft to fix these issues by building the many projects you see here on the blog. I’m playing video games on work time. This is my job.
Speaking of Minecraft, I had this random thought. I know how to code. I know how to retexture things. I don’t know any Java but I could try. I might make one of those fancy Add-Ons the cool people are using these days to have a wider variety of edible fish, cool hats, bedframes, enemies, or pocket monsters in egg form in the game. I thought I might make one that follows the same patterns and is horribly derivative of other people’s work that’s about building your own robots. There are robots in the game. I just change their colours and apparently I’m paid some variety of cool colourful Minecraft currency for doing so. Cool!
In all seriousness though I think I have a cool idea for a Minecraft Add-On that I should make. I’ll look into it later once I’ve got some planning done. I’m calling it Engineering Plus. It allows you to make technology and eventually robot allies out of materials already found in the game like redstone, lapis lazuli, copper, gold, iron, stone, wood, wire and glass. It’ll be fun. This is my way of planning out some of the crafting mechanics for Absolute by trying them on a smaller scale. I want Absolute to contain engineering so I thought I’d try it here first.
I’m not adding any new metal or block types. I’m using only stuff the game has in it already and the normal crafting bench for actually making the stuff. I’m sure I can do cool things here. I’m also working on a tutorial about building underground minecart rails in Creative mode where Creative mode gives you unlimited materials. Lanterns are very useful. Like incredibly useful. Make lanterns your friends. Currently I still play and build in a completely normal vanilla account with no additions. This might be the first of several Add-Ons I do based on my setting.
I also need to go buy fish soon. I’m working on a recipe. I have had traditional Japanese barbeque before about four times. Japanese barbeque is often called teppanyaki. It’s made on something that resembles a giant room sized pancake griddle and uses tiny cubes of chicken, salmon or beef along with rice and several sauces. The whole thing is fried hot in front of you and served to you on a counter that is part of the grill table. I want to replicate this. I am thinking of getting a salmon filet, some smoked salmon, sticky rice, a cucumber and a bunch of sauces and seeing what I can do on a home pancake griddle.
I want a small square plate of small fast-grilled salmon cubes, a little shredded smoked salmon salad and some of my homemade cucumber salad served with a larger square plate of hot fresh made egg and soy sauce fried sticky rice. The sauces are important here. I remember a spicy mayonnaise and a milder seasoned mayonnaise. I know how to replicate both of these at home. They come in three little dishes alongside the meal with soy sauce in the middle dish. This is an ambitious project. I don’t know if I need both a salmon filet and smoked salmon but what I don’t use I can make actual sushi out of. These are my thoughts that I meant to type up today for the weekend.

Hello. C J here. I read a lot of cookbooks. This is done mostly for fun. I’m currently reading a short but really interesting book about traditional Chinese cooking. The book was written by an Indian author who has clearly researched Chinese food very well but some of the translations of recipes or concepts get a bit strange. I’m currently done the soups and starters section and am onto the section labelled ‘food that is saucy.’ Cool? Is it also savvy? There’s a surprisingly large amount of ketchup in the recipes. No I don’t think I want a recipe for hot and sour soup that is thickened ketchup water with vinegar and a bit of cabbage. No I also don’t want to take a slice of white wonderbread, roll it into a tube, stuff it with canned corn, deep fry it and then top it with sesame seeds. What in God’s name do they eat in China? And why is it specifically an image of white wonderbread? China? Are you okay? I managed to take out the vinegar, water and corn starch that makes up most of the h...
