2) ask Marihi to reforge any of the blades

3) after the cut scene, notice that the food effects on the party have disapppeared

This isn't a bug. It takes her 24 hours to reforge the blade(s), so the effects of the food expires.

food effects don't expire until you rest, so yes, this is a bug.

 

the problem is that the game periodically advances time by forcing a short rest instead of a short wait. Even if the rest was extremely short, you end up losing (potentially extremely rare) food/rest buffs, in addition to any drugs and such. It used to be bad enough where searching through any of the world map burial sites or some such would act as short rests, and would be extremely horrible for people in a constrained rest system (either as a voluntary self challenge, or with Rymrgand challenge enabled) and still bad for people who might have just paid out 1k gold to get the adra bath buff and watch it disappear because they searched a burial mound and found 14 hardtack.

 

I thought they had fixed most of these, but just last night in Forgotten Sanctum tinkering with a locked vault door advanced time by 1 hour and cleared all my food effects (had to reload and try something else). Didn't realize Mahiri is still doing a forced rest.
