So: today’s additional shoot of the Wilted Bitterleaf with Beef Bacon and Black Barley Sausage recipe that’s soon to appear at Food and Cooking of the Middle Kingdoms. (Except this time it’s white barley sausage, to see how that looks...)
It tastes different, but it’s still really good...
(ETA: to @sarafinadarkhart : Not sure who/what Daja is? ...But we got this knife-fork-and-spoon set from the Etsy store of a German-based online retailer called Pera Peris. They specialize in medieval-period reproduction items for reenactors and LARPing folk. ...Later on we also picked up from them a matching pricker, which is the utensil that a lot of people used to use to eat with before forks... and which frankly is potentially one of the deadliest objects in our kitchen. [See also @petermorwood’s dreadfully edifying discussion of the usefulness of common kitchen utensils for the torture of enemy secret agents...]) :)
(...Honestly, we’re the gentlest and most harmless of creatures. It’s not our fault that we’ve got... moderately active imaginations.)
(EATA for those who’ll inevitably be curious: ...Here is the pricker. ...Note the cork. We do not keep cooking/eating utensils safetied, around here, unless there’s genuinely a need.)
...Here it is un-safetied. Look at the diameter of the point. And after that—as an old friend says—“I’ll leave you to your own deductions.” :)

Missives From the Planetary Capital of New Daxam, Home of the Great Queen Rhea, Gracious and Benevolent Imperial Majesty of the Empire of Daxam, Long May She Reign
A Sanvers Big Bang fic by @roadien60 and me!
Summary:
“Well, I’m glad to finally be doing something useful,” Maggie says with her mouth full, chasing an over-large bite of dumpling with a gulp of the delicious, bitter tea. “So, is this the mission?” she asks, gesturing to herself, the way her ratty, travel-worn clothing hangs off her bony, half-starved body. “Show up on her doorstep looking like an urchin, begging for her help?”
Lucy nods. “For now, yeah. She used to love you, after all. We just have to hope that there’s enough of the old Alex Danvers in there for that to still matter.”
Read all 78,000 words here, and sorry in advance for, uh...the entire plot.

Sick with anticipation. Just when you think it’s four blocks behind you… it sneaks through the shady lane and chokes you, still from behind
And so very pathetic is the reason

Another reason I want more Addams Family with the 90s cast is I think it would be so nice to see Morticia uncorseted and aging gracefully. I don't think she'd go full Grandmama but do you really think an Addams is afraid of wrinkles and cellulite?
Look me in the eye and tell me Anjelica Huston doesn't still have it.
