case in point, i'm honestly pondering doing a mini rp event in #ffxiv where the bar/tearoom/cafe opens for a special new year dinner, where i can look at all of the historical traditional new year's food and represent it. okay, so it may be half research, half an excuse to serve ham, black eyed peas, and collard greens (or eorzean equivalent thereof). (with pepper hot sauce on every table ofc, i'm not a monster who would make even fictional characters eat collards without)
