Last night I posted to ff.net the LJ story I did last year for [livejournal.com profile] venilia for the Narnia Fic Exchange, Food For Thought.  It's without the pictures of course and I tweaked it a bit.  If you missed the story, before, it's here on ff.net and here, complete, on LJ.  I'm curious whether any of those who avoid my work due to its (perceived immoral) content will check out Food For Thought given the rating and description.  (I even took out the words ass and crap a few times).  I suspect not, but we'll see. I admit that was one of my reasons for posting it as an alternative to the long, angsty and combative things I was contemplating last week.  I need to get the whole thing up, pictures and all, on AO3, but that's going to be a while.

The previous meme has turned into an awesome free-for-all and it's now [livejournal.com profile] econopodder 's fault that I'm contemplating the point of view of Artoo Detoo.  With [livejournal.com profile] knitress the three of us spent a long time discussing Leia and what is and isn't known in the Star Wars EU about Padme after we saw the Avengers.  Really, I don't want to go back to Star Wars fic.  Really.  I've not even managed to get up all the Stuff chapters and that's finished (which should also go up on AO3, eventually).  Oh, for those of you bound for CJ Con, have a GREAT TIME!  So jealous!

As Clairel asked, I'l post that my monarda (bee balm) is doing much better.



I've got some comment fic floating around now in the last couple of entries, so I'll collect that after I write something about Jill and Eustace hanging out in Canada in the TSG AU for Clairel's ask in the meme.  As for Harold and Morgan, 4,000 words of one chapter done, 15,000 or so in the next, so it's going.

EDIT:  I forgot to add the real reason for my post!  British super mystery writer PD James has written Pride and Prejudice fan fic.  Death Comes to Pemberley


Actually, it isn't, in my experience.  I am fine, humming along, though my desire for massive quantities of baking wars with my desire to not eat all the cookies.For those of you who find this time of year especially stressful, whether to exams or otherwise, I send good thoughts and the guarded recommendation to check out the three sentence ficathon.  The recommendation is made cautiously because once you start scrolling through the 30+ pages of prompts and comments, you'll end up in a TV Tropes sort of daze and 4 hours have passed.  It has slowed down a bit, and I didn't post much as I've been writing AW.  There are wonderful, wonderful things there.  Like a perfect bite-sized piece of chocolate, with no calories or fat. 

Narnia, AW, etc. )

As I was researching, I learned that there was a 1938 Jack Benny program sponsored by the makers of Jell-O. The wriggly stuff has been around a really long time.  And speaking of Jell-O and not eating all the cookies, I'll post here a favorite cookie recipe of mine.  Tomorrow, I'll do a separate recipe exchange post and I hope that others will share their recipes for holiday food traditions and favorites.  I am going to dig up the lime Jell-O and pretzel recipe, just for the hell of it. 

Come to the Dark Side, we have chewy ginger cookies )
