The recipe we vaguely used - http://minimalistbaker.com/simple-tofu-quiche
Help make the next CwC:
Parmesan cheese is one of my absolute favourite things in this world, and for CwC 10th episode special, I pose this question - is there anything in this world that can't be improved by the addition of parmesan?? My bet is no, but I want you to prove me wrong. Please comment your suggestions for parmesan combinations I should try - outlandish is fine, but preferably things that are easy to buy / prepare, I don't want to cook 20 meals for one episode - and let's explore the boundaries of taste possibility together.

[Luna]
They say some ponies can never change
They say that i'm crazy, but the truth is
You are the only thing keeping me sane
[Twilight]
I've heard their slander
I know their lies
I know my heart's in the right
I know there's a difference between darkness and night
All these words on the tip of my tongue
But something seems to steals the air within our lungs
There are lines we cannot cross
All our actions have a cost
We cannot calculate
-- why did we wait?
[Twilight]
Sound fades, light fails
Time falls away
There are no illusions
There's only you,
There's the moon standing quiet in the centre of the room
[Luna]
I won't object
I'll do what they say is best
I'll take on the years as they come
With a dream of your touch and your love and forgiveness
All these words on the tip of my tongue
But there's a power here, oh something has begun
Everything disappears, i cannot see you through my tears
-- will we ever meet again?
~
Thanks for joining us on this wild TwiLuna ride! Your regular scheduled programming of Cooking With Cherax, inane vlogs and tantalising WIPs will resume shortly.
But that moment never came
All the billion other moments
Were just slipping all away ~

[Twilight]
I’ve held off for too long,
and now I’ve gotta come clean,
Despite what they all think,
I’m not just a machine,
It has to come out perfectly,
That’s why I’m writing it down,
I couldn’t bear a single mistake,
A stutter or a misplaced noun.
But look at the time I’m running late,
This is her first trip to my town,
I’ve lost track of time and made her wait.
I lost track of time and time flew,
I’ll never make it down,
Look at the time I’m overdue.
[Luna]
I had thought she’d be here,
She’s the only one I know,
Even with ponies all around,
I feel so alone,
I’ve tried to say hello,
but every time I speak,
They just run, they just hide,
I’ve heard nothing but shrieks.
[Townsfolk]
Our nightmares have come back,
Come back too soon,
And now we must burn the witch,
Or send her back to the moon.
I never believed in her,
no matter what they say,
tonight she’s shown her true colours,
so now we make her pay,
Take all the young ones inside,
we must keep them safe,
I’ve seen the hunger in her eyes,
We must expel the waif!
Francis and I are proud and ~very hype~ to present our collaborative EP, Wanting/Knowing - five super fun and rockin' songs about everyone's favourite star-cross'd pony princesses. Grab the full thing (including an updated version of this track) from francisvace.bandcamp.com/album/wanting-knowing

(you want a puppy to love
a new best friend from above)
when you're sad and you're feeling lonely
and you don't know what to do
there's a new best friend on the way
from Pocketville just to meet you
some puppy love to be there by your side
and be with you night and day
the truest friend that you will ever know
is only a wish away
find a friend forever in Pocketville
and believe in a puppy love story
no more tears in your eyes, no way
you've got a new friend, it's a brand new day!

You can't erase a good memory.
Those are moments you can never take away from me.
Every second is encoded in a photograph
And even though you're gone every moment I can hope to last.
Our slowest dance I play on infinite.
I only know you're real, cause I can still remember it.
And though I know we'll never be again
You're in molded in my mind, I close my eyes so I can see you then.
I see you in the corner of my psyche.
I dream of what it was, and what it might be.
Exciting and inviting, our fleeting moment was lightning.
Cause it was bright and it was fast, and passed just like a night's dream.
You were phased in my reality, a 4th dimensional being
Being graced by you challenged me.
The fallacy was that you doubted me
and my ability to keep you bound in my mentality.
You can't just happen to me and leave.
And then expect me just to disbelieve.
'cause in my synapse is our history.
And this story's a mystery, and leads me to this misery.
How i'm putting the pieces all together
'cause yesterday you were here, and now - you were never.
You were kind, compassionate, really you were clever.
I could find myself following you until forever...
So how the hell did we ever get severed?
For you to walk away from me clearly had to have effort.
Indefinitely i've been emptied and left in the desert
And in the air is this pressure, stressing my heart to Escher
Meaning perspective's distorted and skewed.
I'm in an infinite maze, with unlimited views.
And though I want to see in black and white,
a million shades of gray is making daylight blend into the night.
And it's inside of me this hollow void.
But though in spite of this emptiness - I'm not annoyed.
Because I'd rather have you in my life and sadly lose you.
Then live a life never knowing how badly I would choose you.
It's that impression that you left in me.
And showed me there's someone who brings the very best in me.
"You and me" had to be the perfect recipe.
And ask me if I found Happiness.... I'd say it has to be.
You can't erase a good memory.
Those are moments you can never take away from me.
Every second is encoded in a photograph
And even though you're gone every moment I can hope to last.
Our slowest dance I play on infinite.
I only know you're real, cause I can still remember it.
And though I know we'll never be again.
You're in molded in my mind, I close my eyes so I can see you then.
You can't just happen to me and leave.
And then expect me just to disbelieve.
Cause in my synapse is our history.
And this story's a mystery, and leads me to this misery.
But every second with you, no regrets.
And in the timeline of my life, this would go in "best".
No other person will compare to you.
One day I'll let you go, 'cause if I don't, it just ain't fair to you.
You're my alpha and omega.
You're the apple of my eye.
You're my guiding star, Vega.
You're my saint, you're my sin.
In the game of life, you would be my fail and my win.
And if I was a sail, you would be my wind.
If I was a face, then you would be my grin.
And if I was a race, then you would be the end.
You will never be replaced, on that you can depend.

"Below her, the remains of the world, and everyone in it, spin slowly, around and around, in a sea of purple goo. But that doesn't mean Celestia's work is done. The Road lies ahead of her, and at its end—the most difficult decision of her life. Again.
How long can one pony keep hope alive?
Long."
Found this gem a couple of months ago and was blown away. There's a whole lot packed into these 2500 words. The genre tags aren't wrong, but take 'em with a grain of salt.

i'm sorry i don't treat you like a goddess
is that what you want me to do??
i'm sorry i don't treat you like you're perfect
like all your little loyal subjects do
i'm sorry i'm not made of sugar
am i not sweet enough for you??
is that why you always avoid me??
that must be such an inconvenience for you
well,
i'm just your problem
it's like i'm not even a person, am i??
i shouldn't have to justify what i do
and i shouldn't have to prove anything to you
i'm sorry i exist
i forget what landed me on your blacklist
but i shouldn't have to be the one to make up with you
so why do i want to...??
Ahhh, Sister. Despite its blatant simplicity and strange choice of subject matter, this has always been one of my favourite original songs. It was amazing to reinvent it here a far cry from its original bombastic electronic version, and it worked so well I might even call this the definitive version.

bright moon,
is this what you meant?
can i be bettered by this terror?
(is this helping?)
would you visit me again?
reassure me
'cause god i need to hear your voice
(wake me up)
oh sister
if you could see me, at a distance
the strength in my grip
but not the tears in my eyes
'cause you can never see me suffer
tear this masquerade asunder
glimpse the child beneath the pain i am under
...
oh sister, pick me up
you've braved monsters -
what's a little water?
oh sister, please hurry up
that rushing sound
growing louder, louder now
The original version of this song, done with the inimitable Seventh Element ( http://youtu.be/mQLOd5MBEgA ) , was very tight and beatsy, and I love it; but when I arranged this for guitar for one of my "CxDr LIVE" videos, I knew I'd stumbled upon something special, and this has been on my to-do list since. Man, it feels so good to check things off.

i've been watching you
giving up all of the things you had
i was lost amid the foothills too
i fled higher to this precious land
the air is rich and soil is fertile
so give me your hand -
even if you forget me in a moment's time,
you'll be fine
for paradise you're moving slow
cross precipice and frozen snow
keep moving you ahead, keep moving
remember when you last saw yourself clearly
asking why you hated getting up early
don't be led astray, keep moving your own way
there's a love, a sacrifice
haunted by this bad advice
given time, the heart will wilt
and heal itself with what it will
letters, songs and bits of string
don't let any hatred in
always making references
to passages of books you've read
reaching out into the dark
settling for hope instead
only let go of the flat line,
only let go to find a foothold
old horizon
lazy weekends crowd the streets
behind the curtains you can see
taking all your time away
but you can't relate
This song comes from the Cats Millionaire Million Dollar Mixtape!, an awesome tribute album to the awesome Cats Milly and all her awesome music. Archived here - mediafire.com/?s8g6vk9ary5ac6v
I fell in love with Cats the moment I heard I'm So Sorry, and I've fallen in love with just about everything she's made before and since (not to mention her inspirational Tumblr presence). This cover is a fairly shitty way of saying 'thank you for the music,' but hey, it beats the hell out of my abandoned ambient screamo cover of At the Crown of Eternal Sunlight... If the original is about Nightmare Moon's part in the pilot, I imagine this cover is a kind of prequel, representing Luna's transformation into NMM as her anxiety is overwhelmed by her anger - but it's also just a hella club beat, so I mean. There's that.
If you haven't heard the original, get on it now! Prepare for lo-fi rock perfection! http://blacksquares.bandcamp.com/album/im-so-sorry
While you're there, be sure to check out all her other tunes, even (especially) the non-pony stuff. It's all Cats. It's all good.

lying in our room
bathed in the dusk bloom
watching your heart spill out
and splash onto pages
your love is contagious
and i'm coming down with something fierce
lying in our room
just dying to tell you
all of my bad-penny thoughts
been plagued for ages
your love is contagious
and i'm coming down with something fierce
time moves slow now
the sun is going down
or burning out, for all i care
let's just stay here
live this day for years
one frozen moment playing over over over...
no more teasing
i'll say what i mean and see

Vinyl slipped off the bed and padded across the room, giving the cellist an almost reverent berth. From the neatly stacked school supplies that had transported themselves onto her new desk, she withdrew her sketchbook and pencils.
Upon seeing it, Octavia's cheeks flushed red. "Um, Vinyl, I'm not very good at-"
"Shh," hushed the white pony, positioning herself in front of her roommate as if she was in a daze.
And dazed she was, now exposed completely to the musician before her. Higher thought processes escaped her, instead replaced by an insistent, congenital urge to create.
Together they sat, one reciting and the other creating, in the dusk bloom.

Today is also the second anniversary of my illustrious career in pony music. Weird to think that two years ago, I uploaded a shitty post-rock song about Spike; a year ago, I uploaded an acoustic video of me playing the Rescue at my local park; and here we are now. Thanks to everyone who's joined me in this bizarre journey. Let's see what 2014 has in store!

Golly gosh! I'll be releasing a brand spankin' new EP in a month's time. Please be patient with me, I've got a lot of finishing touches to put on it. There'll be a *dank* new single, and possibly a cute little beep-boop, released before then, though, so keep your ears to the ground. Proverbially. Otherwise you won't hear much of anything.
The lyrics here are an awesome poem written by Idylia for the anniversary of Sori 52's release - http://sgaptribute.blogspot.com.au/2013/12/sori-52-1-year-anniversary-is-coming-up.html?showComment=1388722284682#c5913807119672973499
The beat extensively samples SGAP's 'space ponies' and 'RD/RA.' Thank you Digi for killin' it on vocals, and for proposing this project in the first place. I'd been meaning to remix some SGAP for ages. And of course, thank you SGAP. I've never been, and likely never will be, able to properly articulate how much I love your music, but hopefully this song can give you some understanding. (Hint: it's a lot.)

cold stone
hello again, old friends
lifelong for some
but not for this one
years go by, and still i can't die
something here is keeping me alive
she said the magic never fades away
but neither does the pain
