WIP Project Preview - Tea Leaf Curing, Tea Ingredient Crafting, and Tea Recipes
This is not a great video but I'm lazy and didn't feel like editing it so apologies for jumping around, stuttering, and pausing so much. I just don't have the energy right now to make a better one lol.This is a longer video on how my newest mod project - Tea Leaf Curing - works as well as how you can use those cured teas to make Teas and Tea blends via the mill.
WIP Project Preview - Afternoon Tea Teapot
A quick video on how my new teapot and some of the tea recipes work!
Tea Curing
So all the stuff I made is uploaded a little differently this time, it's one large file that includes everything listed below. Later when it's ready for Pre-Release I'll separate everything so you can pick and chose what you want but everything is so interrelated it's going to take me a while to prep all the files. I know I listed all the items in my WIP Update post but I'm going to list them here as well in case someone misse...
Check-in & WIP Progress
Hey all! The day after I posted that I was coming home my son's lung collapsed again. They think that some air got in when they were pulling his tubes out and it caused it to deflate again. They had to repeat the whole process of removing the excess air and they were overly cautious removing his tubes so we were there much longer than anticipated. He's doing great now and I'm happy to say that he's finally home and ready to host D...

Checking In
Hey all, I just wanted to let you know that my son is finally out of the hospital tomorrow. I know I didn't go into any detail but he had a collapsed lung and ended up needing surgery since it's the second time it's happened this year. He actually bounced back pretty quickly so after I get him back to his apartment tomorrow afternoon I'll start my drive back. It's a bit of a drive but I should be back at my desktop and creatin...
Personal Announcement
Hey all, I'm sorry for the delay but there was a family emergency and I had to drive out of state. I won't be back at my desktop until later next week which means I won't be able to wrap up most of the files I've been working on until then. I will upload a few things for Pink Lotus Patrons tomorrow, they just won't have any formal download posts until I get back. You can check out some of the stuff I've been working on in ...

Harvestable OverhaulPlease remove the MOD-EA_BrazenLotus_MULT_HarvestableOverhaul_Tunings file from your game if you haven't already.

Brainstorming
A patron brought up that it would be nice to have specific buffs for the teas in the upcoming 'Afternoon Tea' project I'm working on. It takes me a REALLY long time to come up with buffs and buff descriptions so I generally leave them out but if you all have some suggestions I can try to add them. Know that I may tweak them if I use them but I'll do my best to keep them original. If there are multiple suggestions per recipe then I...

Brainstorming Discussion!
We need some recipes for our Afternoon Tea set and although I have a few ideas I'd love to hear what recipes you want to see! Keep in mind that a traditional afternoon tea (from what I've read ๐) consists of tea with savory bite-sized snacks, scones, and sweets.We need: Teas - some traditional British and Irish type teas Savory Snacks - I'd like to have some Tea Sandwich recipes for sure, but I'm open to other ideas as well!

The Brazen Homestead | Seed Catalog
I added a new page to my site today - The Brazen Homestead Seed Catalog! It lists some of the basic info about my harvestables so you can use it as a quick reference if you like. This page will be updated automatically as new harvestables get added or old harvestables get updated. I've also included a column with a 'Last Update' date so you can quickly check to see if you have the most recent version.
