Hiding fandom in the underwear drawer since 1977

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.
