#Cranberry Fruit Extract

[swagging-back-to]

ok besties update on my roommate leaving pills around i have gotten rid of almost all her pills (put them in a large bottle) and got rid of most of their toxic chemicals (some like windex are bought regularly so i cant really get rid of them. i noticed they also have a pet friendly urine spray now instead of using windex and leaving the soaked tissues down on the doggy pad.) and i trained both dogs to avoid pills altogether.

i also told her when she was giving me her eork schedule "im worried about my dogs getting into stuff while im gone" cause she asked why i was offering the dogs pills and then i told her husband that theres always pills on the floor (cause hes in denial) and that im training them to only eat kibble or treats.

in a few days im gonna try walking around with her on a leash and pills on the floor to see if she will actually ignore them. ill only do it when im confident enough in her aversion.

and I'll try it with foods that might be poisonous, like cherries ,raisins, chocolate. i want to start doing the poison food aversion sooner than later.

then gonna try other things like chemicals, especially chemical soaked paper towels which my roommates leave down a lot. like, all the time.

okay okay yes chef sanji is wonderful but baker sanji. confectioner sanji. think about it.

sanji kneading dough on a saturday morning with his shirtsleeves rolled up to the elbow. he has flour on his cheeks and one of those cute canvas aprons the colour of a brown paper bag with a million pockets and he keeps getting pissed off because strands of his bangs are constantly falling into his face. he makes sourdough and cheesecake and strawberry pavlova and tangerine tarts and dried mango nougat and carrot cupcakes that everybody eyed suspiciously before they actually tried them and now they're a friend group favourite.

he makes monthly batches of those agar-agar edible crystals for vivi's entire family and ships them by the crate to alabasta. he bakes robin and franky's blue raspberry black forest wedding cake. all of the straw hats have multiple packets of his dark chocolate dried fruit and nut and oat yoghurt brittle in their bags at any one time because they're the perfect snack and they're delicious. he makes red bean matcha mochi for zoro because the mosshead can't tolerate anything too sweet.

he has jar upon jar of aromatic infusions on the shelf: vanilla, black pepper, florals, all steeped in liquor to make high-quality extracts that he has gotten MULTIPLE offers to start a business out of, but he always declines because hello. he's busy cooking for straw hats and co.. luffy and fam. he has no time he is a busy busy man and would you look at that chopper's upside-down apple crumble is ready.

usopp makes him all sorts of contraptions, a high-speed blender, a state-of-the-art stand mixer, an ice-cream machine; sometimes if he's feeling lazy he'll go equipment shopping with sanji and just modify whatever they buy. sanji has a toffee hook on the wall of the galley and a very formidable collection of cookie cutters and piping tips. he's managed to make fondant that doesn't taste like utter trash and it's legendary. his salted caramel cashew macadamia popcorn has and will continue to make grown men cry.

but sometimes, he just chucks some charcoal in a pot and plops it in the middle of the dining table with a bowl of chocolate on top and brings out the fruit skewers, or the marshmallows and graham crackers. sometimes they eat rice krispy treats out of the packaging as they huddle together on the lawn and stargaze just because they can. sometimes the almond and dried cranberry combo just can't be beat and sometimes plain toast with butter makes you see god. but you'd best believe the next day he's up and at it again; his sourdough starter's looking more and more like a sentient life form by the hour and he has seven different things going on at once with two more bowls cooling off in the fridge and the oven preheating. i love baker confectioner sanji.

Spiced Cranberry Pear Fruit Leather! 🍐

Sweetened with Orange Spice Tea infused honey from work 🍊

I cooked down the cranberries and honey a bit until it was more of a compote, so that I could extract more out of it. The flavor is perfectly tart, like candy 😍

The ultimate mix and match qucik bread recipe:

if something is beautiful it should be shared and cherished, and this banana bread recipe is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. It’s a formula for making quick breads/muffins from a Food Network Magazine from like 2012 and it works miracles. It’s so flexible and delicious. Also ignore the part where it says to only use 1 fruit or vegetable type, I’ve mixed and matched to get to 1 cup. My all time favorite is banana zucchini bread. And it’s scalable!! I love using it to use up produce thats about to go bad. Its a very flexible and adaptible recipe/ recipe framework. Recipe in text form:

Choose a Flavor: Prepare one cup of fruit or vegetable (1 kind) such as pear(shredded and squezzed dry), apple(shredded and squezzed dry), banana(mashed), carrot(shredded), or zucchini(shredded and squezzed dry) *Note from me: I have used mixtures of multiple of these fruits/veggies adding up to one cup like a mix of zucchini and banana with great results. I have also had sucess using 1/4 cup cut up dried fruit (such as raisins) mixed with 3/4 cup warmed up applesauce*

Pick Your Mix-Ins: Choose up to 1 3/4 cups total of the following ingredients (use no more than 3/4 cup nuts). Toast and chop any nuts; chop any large dried fruit: walnuts, pecans, almonds, hazelnuts, pistachios, dried cherries, dried cranberries, dried currants, raisins, dried figs, dried apricots, pitted dried dates, rolled oats, chocolate chips, shredded coconut. *Note from me: I never add oats, but if you do add a lot of them you may have to decrease the amount of flour you use slightly*

Prepare the Pan: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter one 9-by-5-inch loaf pan or three 6-by-3-inch mini pans. *Note from me: you can also use muffin or mini muffin tins*

Make the Batter: Mix 1 1/4 cups flour, 3/4 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon each baking powder and salt, and 1/2 teaspoon each baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg in a large bowl; add your dry mix-ins (from step 2). In a medium bowl, whisk 2 eggs, 1/2 cup cooled melted butter or vegetable oil, 1/2 cup plain yogurt or sour cream, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon citrus zest (optional). Stir your fruit or vegetables (from step 1) into the egg mixture, then fold into the dry mixture until just combined. *Note from me: you can use any mix of white & brown sugar, and you can use AP flour or a mix of AP and whole wheat flour, also playing around with differnt seasonings and flavorings is fun*

Bake the Loaf: Spread the batter in the prepared pan/pans. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 55 minutes for a standard loaf, 35 to 40 minutes for mini loaves. Cool 30 minutes in the pan(s) on a rack, then turn out onto the rack to cool completely. *Note from me: check at like 15-20 minutes for muffins*

Make a Glaze: Prepare a glaze, pour on the cooled bread and let set, 15 to 20 minutes. Chocolate: Whisk 1 cup confectioners' sugar, 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, 2 tablespoons milk, 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Vanilla Bean: Whisk 1 cup confectioners' sugar, 1 tablespoon milk and the seeds from 1 vanilla bean. Brown Butter: Brown 3 tablespoons butter over low heat; cool slightly. Whisk with 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar and 1 tablespoon milk. Use immediately. Citrus: Whisk 1 cup confectioners' sugar, 1 tablespoon each milk and citrus juice, and 1 teaspoon citrus zest. Cream Cheese: Whisk 1 cup confectioners' sugar, 3 tablespoons softened cream cheese, 2 tablespoons milk and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract.

Happy baking and enjoy!!!

Morning and evening

Maids heard the goblins cry:

“Come buy our orchard fruits,

Come buy, come buy:

Apples and quinces,

Lemons and oranges,

Plump unpeck’d cherries,

Melons and raspberries,

Bloom-down-cheek’d peaches,

Swart-headed mulberries,

Wild free-born cranberries,

Crab-apples, dewberries,

Pine-apples, blackberries,

Apricots, strawberries;—

All ripe together

In summer weather,—

Morns that pass by,

Fair eves that fly;

Come buy, come buy:

Our grapes fresh from the vine,

Pomegranates full and fine,

Dates and sharp bullaces,

Rare pears and greengages,

Damsons and bilberries,

Taste them and try:

Currants and gooseberries,

Bright-fire-like barberries,

Figs to fill your mouth,

Citrons from the South,

Sweet to tongue and sound to eye;

Come buy, come buy.”

Ice Lolly

I feel these are probably pretty straightforward, but! I will give two recipes here. One recipe is for the kind I make every summer for my kid and the other recipe is for the kind I've made a few times in the past (and points to you if you recognize where I got the idea from lol).

Simple Ice Lollies

Ingredients:

Fruit Juice Concentrate or Fruit Juice of your choice(I use 100% Unsweetened cranberry juice)

Fruit (I use strawberry or raspberries usually)

Water (to water down your concentrate if that's what you're using)

Ice Trays

Toothpicks or popsicle sticks

Get a measuring cup and mix your juice concentrate with water until its the taste profile you like. If using juice you can probably skip watering it down.

If you're adding fruit, cut it into small chunks that'll fit into the ice cube tray slots. (I slice the strawberries so one slice fits or I'll usually put a whole raspberry and so no cutting required!)

Pour the juice into the ice cube trays about 3/4 full. Stab a piece of fruit and put it and the toothpick into the ice cube so the toothpick sticks out like a popsicle stick.

Repeat filling the ice cube tray until they're all full.

Place the tray in the freezer until frozen. (An hour in my freezer, time may vary depending on your freezer.)

Crack the tray and hold your homemade popsicles by the toothpick!

Fancy Ice Lollies

Technically these are ice cream lollies, but these'll look more like the stuff from the store, especially if you use a mold.

Ingredients:

4 eggs yolks

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup sugar

1/8 tsp salt

6oz evaporated milk

1 cup heavy cream

Blue & Green food dye

Sea salt flakes

Ice Cube Tray

Popsicle sticks

Popsicle molds

Separate the egg yolks and place into a large bowl. Add vanilla extract, sugar, and regular salt. Whisk quickly for about 2-4 minutes until the mixture falls off the whisk in thick ribbons. Don't overbeat.

In a small pot bring the evaporated milk to a simmer. Be careful not to boil it or scald the milk by making the heat too high. (If it starts to get a skin on the bottom don't scrape the skin. That doesn't break back down and you'll have milk skin chunks...) Incorporate the simmered milk into the egg mixture by mixing and pouring in slowly.

Once combined, pour entire mixture back into the small pot and place on stove at a medium heat. Whisk continuously until the mixture begins to thicken and take on a custard like texture.

Be very careful not to boil or overheat the pot otherwise your eggs will begin to scramble.

Once finished, place the mixture into another big bowl and place in the freezer until it reaches room temperature (30-45 minutes).

Add in 1/2 cup of heavy cream to your first mixing bowl and whisk until it has doubled in volume.

Remove the egg mixture from the freezer.

Carefully fold in the whipped heavy cream into the egg mixture until it is fully combined. Pour the contents into an ice cube tray, spread it out evenly, then place back in the freezer to freeze (3-4 hours).

In a separate bowl, combine the remaining 1/2 cup of heavy cream with 10 drops of blue food coloring and 3 drops of green food coloring. Mix until the cream is the desired color.

In a blender, combine the food coloring heavy cream, sea salt, and ice cream chunks from your ice cube tray. Put in as little or as much sea salt as you'd like. It has a very powerful flavor and you may find the salty taste a bit overwhelming, so add it in slowly and mix it around until you feel you have a good balance between sweet and salty.

Blend the ingredients together in the blender, occasionally stopping to stir the chunks around and scrape the sides down. Once the entire mixture has reached a soft-serve like consistency, pour the mixture into your ice cream molds.

Stick popsicle sticks in your filled molds and place back into freezer.

After about 3-4 hours, your ice cream will be done! Take the molds out and run them under warm water to remove the ice cream more easily.

Enjoy!

The sea salt ice cream popsicles is a recipe I wrote down from Feast of Fiction like a decade ago. It's a pretty good recipe and I wholly recommend it.

Moonless, Dark Night. Pt. 2

Pairing: Aemond Targaryen x OC!Strong (half Targaryen) Words: 4.5k+ Warnings: Violence and Graphic Descriptions, Emotional Distress, Mature (ish) themes, Mentions of Self-Harm and Su*cide, Adult Language, Incest.

Part 1 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5 Part 6 Part 7

Sansa had been awoken at her usual hours that morning. She was only fifteen. She had broken her fast with fruit loaf and honey, a slab of salmon on the side. Septa Lysa had sat her down for a lesson on the Lyseni poetry, asking her to have readied a critical comparison of the Lyseni tongue and its High Valyrian roots for the next day. Sansa feigned illness, saying that she could smell the stale salmon with every burp. The Septa looked horrified, piteously halting the morning early. Sansa picked up her parchments, her quills and inkpots taken care of by one of her ladies, Neyla. She went up to her bedchamber, having her ladies help her put her hair in two beautiful, neat, slightly flowy plaits. Cranberry extracts were used on the apples of her cheeks and her lips, her eyes adorned lightly with kohl. Fragrances brought as presents from Lys were dabbed onto the napes of her neck, her wrists, her bosom, and the top of her head. Her black hair was sleek and shiny, her lilac eyes sparkling. 

She walked downstairs, to the training yard. It had been over a week since she had shown up there and felt like it had been reasonably long. She admired the sight of his training immensely. His face contorted in close focus, his doe-like eye large in alarm, his hair flailing about him; she could drink in the sight whole.

She found herself joining a significantly large audience at the yard. Everyone was whispering among themselves, speaking of the marvel that the young Prince had grown to become. Unlike his older brother, the young Prince trained tirelessly. He had grown almost a foot tall in the past year and looked like he had turned from fifteen to twenty before even turning sixteen. He was handsome, almost mythical. One might argue that the lack of an eye, his being an amputee of sorts, made him seem like a fierce, deranged monster. However, there were many women who found the eye-patch rather flattering on him. They spoke of the sapphire that hid beneath, the glinting stone reminiscent of the eye and indicative of his status. They even spoke of the sight he must have made when the only shred of garb on him was just the patch, silk and smooth. Talks like that, she chortled off. It would be a lie, however, to deny the thoughts crossed her mind, too. 

As children, much of their respective fathers’ conversations revolved around how the two would marry once of age. Lord Strong would never fail to remind the King that his support and loyalty were to the house Targaryen and alliances should be cemented elsewhere, with other houses. However, King Viserys never paid heed to such propositions. 

However, after her father’s passing and the king’s ailing health worsening with quick bouts of horrid illnesses, especially after the death of his half-sister; such discussions had ceased to happen at all. Earlier that year, the Queen had invited Cassandra Baratheon to the Red Keep. Everyone suspected that the invitation had been extended as a means of securing the support of House Baratheon by marrying Prince Aemond to the Lady. However, nothing of the note was ever uttered amongst the people at the Keep. Cassandra Baratheon was, undeniably, a beauty. She had icy cold blue eyes and hair as dark and sleek as Sansa’s. Her neck was swanlike, her waist perfectly cinched. She danced like a fairy, her healthy skin glistened after any physical exertion, leaving her rather seductively ruddied. Sansa said nothing of Cassandra’s presence at the court despite the slightest jealousy she would experience every time the Prince spared her a glance. She knew, deep down, that her father would approve of a union so advantageous. She said nothing. 

Cassandra was polite with Sansa and Sansa was the most cordial, they had nothing to despise each other for. Cassandra did not consider Sansa, a mere orphan, a threat. Sansa could not find it in herself to despise a woman whose own machinations had little power amongst the Hightowers. 

A fortnight before her sixteenth nameday, the Queen entered her bedchamber with a beautiful gown. Sansa knew little of fabrics, but the quality of the cloth seemed divine; it was soft to the touch and exceedingly fine. “You can fold it and fit it within a small matchbox,” the Queen mused, “You are to become a woman grown, suitable for marriage. I believe you deserve to have the finer things in life.”

“Your Grace, I am very thankful. This is a lovely present.” Sansa smiled at the Queen earnestly, admiring the green fabric. The Queen endearingly returned the smile as Sansa held the gown upon her and admired how it flattered her in the mirror. “This is such a fine gown, I wonder where I’d even wear it!”

“Well, on the occasion of your and Aemond’s namedays, we are hosting a two-day long grand joust. You could certainly wear this on your nameday, sweet child.” The Queen put a hand on Sansa’s shoulder, gently turning her to face her, “Dearest, I want to speak to you about something of utmost importance.”

Sansa held her breath, her fingers becoming too feeble to hold onto the present. One of her ladies took it off her, as Sansa asked the Queen if she’d like to have a seat, perhaps a cup of tea. The Queen smiled in agreement.

“You are of marriageable age now. I owe to Lord and Lady Strong that I wed you well.” The Queen took a hearty sip of her tea, “You have been such a good girl, Sansa. I must ensure you are wed well.”

“Your Grace, that is very kind of you.” Sansa spoke softly, fearing the worst. “The Queen is going to send me away,” Sansa thought to herself, “There’s no going back.”

“Lord Ormund Hightower, my cousin, lost his lady wife last winter.” She began and Sansa’s heart dropped, “He has four young children he very much loves. You might think him old, but he is only four-and-twenty. Quite handsome, too, burly and dashing, the ladies say.”

“I am certain he is a good man, your Grace.” Sansa bit into one of the lemon cakes, her mouth dry.

The Queen bit her lower lip in contemplation, sizing the girl before her, “You would make a great Lady Hightower, dearest.” 

Sansa’s eyes fell on the tea before her and offered no response. The Queen waited before continuing. “Father wanted to pay you a visit himself and speak to you on that matter. My cousin has expressed interest in the proposition, saying that he would be delighted if you grace him with an audience on your nameday.”

“I understand, your Grace.”

“You do not have to make a decision now. Lord Ormund will be here for three or so weeks. That shall allow plenty of time for you to know him well.” The Queen took Sansa’s hand in hers, “I know how intimidating it must be to think of marriage, my dear. However, it is… not as bad as we fear it might be. With Aemond’s betrothal to be announced on his nameday, we would love to have yours in motion as well” Sansa nodded, looking up at the Queen and smiling. “I have known your son for sixteen years to only lose him for a man I will only know for three weeks.”

She spent the whole day and the whole night in wonderment. She always thought she’d marry him. And even if that would not be possible, she had expected Aemond to put up a fight. They grew up together, shared a bond over not having any dragons, took many lessons together until he retired from scholarly ventures for physical excursion. Aemond losing his eye and gaining a dragon was Aemond changed, to a good extent. Despite Sansa’s valid feeling that Aemond had become a wholly different person altogether, she tried to hold onto him, for he was a friend, if nothing else.

For the past three years or so, Aemond had isolated himself largely from everyone else at court. He trained endlessly to overcome the lack of an eye, in an attempt to compensate for the lacking that shaped him significantly. He kept mostly to himself when he was not training, focusing on learning the stately affairs. He inserted himself in many Small Council meetings, and was more often than not found speaking at lengths with his grandsire, hoping to absorb his wisdom and intelligence. Sansa, initially, tried to interest him in similar readings or even trifle conversations, to which he always apologised, “I have a prior commitment I need to attend. Please, continue without me.” After multiple attempts as such, Sansa stopped trying, surmising that she’d have to make do with catching his glimpses. She hoped that he’d choose to marry her after all, if for nothing else than to just forego the courting process altogether because it did seem like he took little interest in women. However, he was often found gazing at women’s forms, appreciatively. It was not news that he liked women, just not enough to indulge in them freely.

Aemond was most kind to Sansa when the situation arose, sharing his ale with her and pulling her chair out for her. He spoke to her more than anyone else other than his grandfather and mother, and whilst it was not much, it meant something. Or so she thought it did. She conspicuously made sure he’d catch sight of her every once in a while, before disappearing altogether for a number of days. Three, five, even ten; depending on how receptive he was to her appearance. She wondered if Aemond and Cassandra had any clandestine meetings than the ones that happened during meals. Despite the Queen’s insistence, Aemond refused to entertain her at any other hour. His refusal to engage with her any further had reassured Sansa that nothing beyond such meetings could happen between the two of them. She felt so foolish for having set her hopes so high, she thought.

Sansa found her misery pitiful. If he had moved on and chosen to engage himself with another woman he knew so little, then she should take the chance to look elsewhere. Despite her half-brother, Larys’s position in the Small Council, she often felt unwanted, burdensome even, at the Red Keep. Her mother was beloved and adored and if she were alive, Sansa perhaps would have felt more at ease. She might have been able to tell her mother that she wanted to marry Aemond, and that she could speak to the Queen on that matter. However, if the Prince had made up his mind about Lady Baratheon, then no appeals would be heard or paid heed to. “This was meant to go this way,” she gave out a small laugh sardonically.

-

“HEARD YOU’RE TO be wed to my mother’s cousin.” Aemond had sneaked up on her as she rested in Godswood with a hefty book on her lap. A week was left of the grand joust, and the preparations were going on in full rage. Aemond rarely met up with anyone at court unless it meant pure business. Sansa had never expected the Prince to show up unannounced, but there he was. She closed the book, looking up at him as he towered her. “He’s not even trying,” she thought, “He just happens to be huge.” If she hadn’t grown up with him, she’d be intimidated.

“I thought we were friends,” He spoke again, “I would had hoped to hear of your betrothal from you.”

Sansa wet her lips as she set her book aside, getting on her feet. She was as small and dainty as her great-grandmother, the Good Queen Alysanne. On the other hand, the Prince was as big as the Conqueror. She hadn’t stood before the Prince, so close, in some time then. The Prince smiled when she reached her full height, finding it amusing, “It’s almost as if only one of us grew, despite our being the same age.” Aemond teased.

Sansa had little scruples regarding petty jokes. “How come I had to hear of your betrothal from the Queen, and not from you?” She looked up at him, demanding a steady answer with her gaze.

“Mother already informed you?” He spoke more to himself than to her. His eye wandered slightly, and Sansa took it as his refusal to look her in the eyes. “Word travels fast, eh?”

“I suppose we have become more distant in the past few years. I am not surprised.”

“I never thought our bond to be so superficial that my devotion toward perfecting myself would build a wall. However, if you believe so, half of it is of your own design.”

Her smile poured irony as she relaxed her neck, looking straight ahead, “I must congratulate you on securing such a great alliance. Father would have been most pleased.”

“You are to become the Lady of High Tower, I believe that itself is more illustrious.” She could not make much of Aemond’s voice, and refused to derive anything with scrutiny. It was too late for any of that. 

“You will always be welcome to visit, cousin.” Her dejection had turned into spite. She sat down, the book back on her lap and opened on a random page. She pretended to read, for the shadow over her to dissipate. However, nothing of the sort happened.

“Sansa?” he called her name, her head jerking upward promptly. She had not expected to find him bent down, his face so awfully close to hers that his breath tickled her mouth. His eye traversed over the finest details of her face, making out the little creases, the smallest scars. Her eyes were his own, and when he looked into them, he found a bit of himself, too. 

“Aemond.” She breathed out, her voice just a squeak. She wondered if he’d kiss her, she hoped he would. No one usually made their way so deep inside the Godswood unless summoned. No one would have to see or know. She almost closed her eyes, threw her head back, and puckered her lips slightly.

“You were on page 264,” he muttered, “This is page 512.” He raised himself straight, smirking at her shrunk form, before walking away. “Just a small punishment.” He thought to himself as she watched him leave.

--

LORD HIGHTOWER MADE all the attempts a man could to impress Sansa. Sansa was quite intrigued, even taken by his antics. The day he arrived, he arrived with sixteen large bouquets of lilac. He brought her a beautiful hair clip, encrusted with purple zoisites, harvested from the rarest forms of tanzanites. “May I?” He said, walking behind her and securing the clip on top of her plait, “It looks lovely, my lady, the most lovely.”

He was surprisingly youthful for a man who had fathered four children. Jubilant, generous, and zestful; Lord Hightower was the most delightful company Sansa had ever known. She had never been made to laugh as hard and nor was she ever so astounded by someone’s charm. “Lord Hightower’s charm goes through the roof.” she wrote in her diary, “He is such fun, such pleasure. Any meal with him is a feast, any audience with him is an epic. His joy is infectious. Any woman would be lucky to be wed to him. I would, too, for Aemond won’t be making me his wife.”

“Lord Hightower, may I ask you some questions that may transgress the level of proprietary here?” Sansa and Lord Ormund were sat at the gardens, having freshly plucked peaches. The sun was bright red, closer to the ground than the sky. The wind was cool against her bare shoulders, the sweat that had gathered at the base of her neck due to the walk almost dry.

“You may ask me anything that concerns you or delights you, my lady.” He bit deeply into a peach and munched enthusiastically, looking at her with warm, gentle eyes.

“You are surprisingly happy for a man who lost his wife not even a year ago. Your happiness is, in all honesty, rejuvenating. Especially at King’s Landing, where everyone’s rather stern and all business. I just can’t help but wonder…”

“My lady, I am glad you communicated your feelings with me. I always appreciate such transparency. It’s most necessary.” He says, “When I lost my wife, I was the most despaired. I had stopped eating, bathing, and even attending to the needs of my family. After a month or so, I realised how much had collapsed in my absence. Bureaucratically, all was good, thanks to my Regent. However, my children looked chalky, lifeless, unfed even. I have worked toward building myself, block by block, ever since. I had no plans to court any woman, until my Uncle sent me a likeness of you, commissioned for your fifteenth nameday.” He smiled, “There is something so distinct about your gaze that it pierced through the portrait. I felt like getting to know you could cause no harm.”

“You flatter me, Lord Hightower.” And, Sansa did feel flattered. No man had ever offered her such praises before, not even Aemond. He had been mostly absent, busy with his own affairs, to pay anyone any heed at all. He had not noticed her bosom, then blooming over her neckline, neither had he ever taken note of her arms that were toned from lifting weights, her clavicles touched upon with petroleum. Lord Hightower took her hand, kissing the back of it. He excused himself, saying he must meet his uncle before supper, and he would see her soon. Sansa was about to start for her own bedchamber herself, however, she was halted by Cassandra.

Cassandra wore a beautiful yellow gown with green embroidery on the high neck of it. Her hair was coiled in a neat bun, she had the bone structure for it. “I must congratulate you and thank you at once, Lady Strong.”

Cassandra was a head taller than Sansa, fuelling Sansa’s insecurity. “Aemond must prefer taller women.” She turned to Cassandra and smiled, propositioning that they had a seat in the lovely, breezy garden before the sun set fully. Cassandra acquiesced, confused.

“Lady Baratheon, what were you saying?” Sansa tried to smile brightly, hoping that her face did not reflect her turmoil regarding herself.

“I wanted to congratulate you and thank you, Lady Strong.” She took hold of one of Sansa’s hands on her lap, “Perhaps, even ask a question, woman to woman, if it’s alright.”

“Congratulate and thank me? For what, Lady Baratheon?” Sansa’s eyebrows furrowed on their own, in utter befuddlement. 

“Well, this is quite embarrassing to admit, but I suppose we can talk to each other, like friends.” Cassandra scooted closer to Sansa enthusiastically. “Aemond told me that he would have never agreed to our… betrothal, if you hadn’t agreed to yours.”

“I - I don’t unders-”

“Please, Sansa, if I may call you so,” Cassandra was then holding both of Sansa’s hands with her own, “I am aware, I know everything. It is alright, I shan’t tell a soul.”

“Alright…” Sansa decided to give the girl a listen and not say anything else then.

“I am aware that you and Aemond were… lovers. Now, I do not know what must have gone wrong between the two of you for you to give up on a Prince, however, I would not even mind his being… with you, you know how, even after our marriage. As long as I get to be the wife of a Prince, of course.”

“Right, I must say,” Sansa struggled to come up with words that could falsely inform Cassandra of her failed cognizance, “I understand what you mean, I would, too.”

“You would…? Then why did you agree to be wed to Lord Hightower? I mean, the fellow is not bad to look at and he’s wealthy. But, he’s no prince.”

Sansa stared at her, agape, “I was... tired, I suppose.” There was some truth to what she had then replied.

Cassandra lifted her shoulder high to drop with the biggest sigh, “I understand, I do. Now, there is something I must ask you. It is rather personal. You won’t make quick judgments here about me, I hope.”

“I shall never,” Sansa had begun to emulate Cassandra’s tone without realising, “Ever judge you, Cassandra.” Regarding the Baratheon girl informally took a toll on her, but she did it anyway.

“Alright, so, upon the confirmation of our betrothal, I went to Aemond furtively. I wore a beautiful, satin green cloak and nothing underneath.” It took Sansa all her might to conceal her surprise. “He was THE most surprised to find me there-”

“How did you enter his bedchamber?” 

“I lied to Cole, told him he had asked me himself to wait inside. Cole let me in and I waited.” Cassandra spoke like it was the most normal thing she had ever done, so natural, so routine. “When he came in, I greeted him, and took off my cloak.”

Sansa swallowed hard, “And then?” She managed.

“He walked up to me, picked the cloak up, and wrapped me in it! His face was stone-cold, his eyes- I mean, his eye, UNFLINCHING. He goes,” And then Cassandra proceeds to do the most hilarious, yet accurate, impression of Aemond to have ever existed, “”The only reason I agreed to this is because she agreed to marry my silly uncle.” Then he poured himself some Dornish ale, did not even offer me any, saying something along the lines of rather joining the Kingsguard than marrying me, but deciding that the “latter” would spite you more.”

Sansa heart raced against her chest, she could feel her pulse going wild in her throat, “You’re so beautiful, he did not take you to bed?”

She snorted, “I asked him the same question, I dare say. I told him how men from all of the seven kingdoms would die to bed me. I am aware of my beauty and I am NOT scared to flaunt it. I told him I could sleep with his own brother even, if I wanted.”

“And?” Sansa could have sworn that Cassandra was narrating some lusty tale she heard in Flea Bottom, were it not for the solemnity with which Cassandra went on.

“And, he says, “You may be the most beautiful woman in seven kingdoms, but you’re not Sansa.”"

“That is awfully bad of him,” Sansa spoke, doing her earnest to seem embarrassed on his behalf, “I must apologise on his behalf.” 

“You mustn’t really, people have a hard time imagining themselves abed with anyone but their first love. It's just that, I had only thought it to be us women though.” Cassandra had the most dynamic face, Sansa thought. “However, my question to you is, how to get him to lie with me?”

Sansa stared quietly at Cassandra. She had no clue what to say, she had never even kissed the man, or anyone, for that matter. “What?”

“The way he spoke of you, you must have done something right!” Cassandra was holding tightly onto Sansa’s arms then, hoping to squeeze out an answer.

“Well…” Sansa contemplated lying, suggesting something outlandish to see if she would commit to that. But then, she held herself back, “I honestly don’t know… he’s never been… particularly… picky with me.”

“Well, he must truly love you then.” She huffs out, “I will probably have to wait until our bedding ceremony. I am certain I can get him to lie with me more often then.” She wistfully prays, and Sansa reassures her of the same. “Might I ask you another question, very personal?” Sansa wanted to retort in the question of what else had she left to ask that could be any more personal, yet she held herself back and nodded. “How big is he?”

“Well, they say he is as big as the Conqueror himself!” Sansa wonders what is so personal about the question, given he is out there, large and burly.

“Targaryens are truly weird…” She muses, “Have you the Conqueror’s size in record?”

“Oh, I mean, of course, we do…” The moment Sansa realised her transgression, “We have various measurements, as Targaryens, believing in the purity of incestuous unions.” She reinforced, despite being somewhat languid.

“At least you own up to it.” Cassandra slowly nodded in understanding.

---

THE SUPPER THAT followed was something Sansa looked forward to, more than anything she ever had. She let Lord Ormund sit beside her, she audibly amused herself in conversation with him and chuckled with such zeal that the whole table marveled at their happiness. Aemond, on the other hand, looked everywhere but at them, nibbling the food before him and only responding in nods.

“Lady Strong is well-educated in Political History,” the Queen began, “Maester Cliff is always full of praises for her acumen. I believe that she will serve as an excellent regent at Oldtown, even!” Otto Hightower nodded in agreement.

“Well, as smart as Lady Strong is, I do not think she’d make a fitting regent.” He opined, “In fact, I believe women are best caregivers and, in return, would make shoddy leaders, politically.”

“How come?” Sansa asked, without missing a beat, her whole body turned toward Lord Ormund, in hopes of an answer that could dissuade her irritation at his depraved myopia.

“Well, women have nerves that are different from men. They are more prone to failure in maintaining composure, especially in matters of negotiation and reconciliation.” 

“Would you say the same regarding Nymeria Martell? She led the Rhoynar to the Dornish lands, established the Supremacy of Nymeros Martell, and ruled as the Princess of Dorne for well over two decades.” Sansa looked the man in the eyes, hoping he’d, at least partially, retrieve what he had said.

“There will always be exceptions, Lady Strong, they don’t make for robust examples.”

“We have only regarded Aegon as the Conqueror of Seven Kingdoms. In the process, we have gravely failed Visenya Targaryen and Rhaenys Targaryen, who had played just as big roles in unifying Westeros as Aegon had. Visenya and Rhaenys both ruled alongside their brother-husband. Visenya’s authoritative influence on governance was absolute, many even say that she was more instrumental when it came to ruling Westeros than her brother-husband. Not only that, she is one of the fiercest warriors in history. Rhaenys, on the other hand, was paramount in diplomacy, having resolved more issues via words and smiles than known in history. Had she not been there, so many revolts would've egregiously led to war.” Aemond pauses for a moment, looks up at his uncle, and continues, “It is very shortsighted to suggest that women cannot contribute to stately matters when you happen to be a minor feudal lord in a Kingdom that was made by two women.”

Otto Hightower agreed with his grandson but veered the conversation in a direction completely disparate to what had just transpired. Sansa smiled to herself quietly, glancing at Aemond and hoping to catch a glimpse of him, just to let him know she was exceedingly happy with how he carried the conversation. However, he never looked at her. Not for once.

Easy cranberry curd tart with almond crust

The Cranberry Curd Tart recipe is a delightful recipe treat that elegantly captures the essence of seasonal flavors, combining the tartness of fresh cranberries with the smooth, rich texture of curd. This dessert not only steals the show at holiday gatherings but also offers a refreshing alternative to traditional pies. 

Every bite is a harmonious blend of sweet and tangy, making it a must-have for anyone looking to impress during Thanksgiving or small celebrations ( birthday ...) . When preparing this recipe , it is important to allow enough time for resting, as the curd needs to set properly after cooking. 

Altogether, the total time for preparing and resting the tart is approximately 5 ½ hours, making this recipe an excellent choice for those who enjoy planning ahead.

Importance of Almond Crust

The almond crust recipe serves as the perfect base for the cranberry curd, providing a nutty flavor and crisp texture that beautifully complements the fruity filling. Here are some reasons why the almond crust is essential:

Flavor Enhancement: The slight nuttiness of almond flour elevates the overall taste experience.

Texture Contrast: The crunchiness of the crust contrasts wonderfully with the creaminess of the curd.

Gluten-Free Option: Almond flour naturally avoids gluten, providing a delicious option for gluten-sensitive guests.

Incorporating an almond crust not only enriches the visual appeal but also makes this recipe memorable and unique.

List of Ingredients for the Tart

Creating a delicious Cranberry Curd Tart recipe with Almond Crust requires fresh, high-quality ingredients. Here's what you'll need:

1 cup almond flour

½ cup cornstarch

⅓ cup granulated sugar

½ teaspoon table salt

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled

¾ teaspoon almond extract

For the Cranberry Curd: 1 pound (4 cups) fresh or frozen cranberries

1 ¼ cups (8 ¾ ounces) sugar, divided

½ cup water and a Pinch of salt

3 large egg yolks

2 teaspoons cornstarch

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

For Garnishing:1 cup heavy cream, whipped

Having these ingredients on hand ensures a successful culinary adventure!

Substitutions and Variations

This recipe offers flexibility! Here are some potential substitutions and variations:

Nut Alternatives: For those with nut allergies, substitute almond flour with oat flour or a gluten-free mix, keeping in mind the flavor will shift.

Sweeteners: Consider using coconut or maple sugar instead of granulated sugar for a different taste.

Adding Zest: Incorporate fresh orange or lemon zest into the curd for an added citrusy kick.

Fruit Variations: While cranberries are the star, experimenting with a blend of berries or adding a touch of pomegranate can create a unique twist.

Remember, these modifications can lead to deliciously unexpected recipe . 

Steps to Prepare the Almond Crust

Creating the perfect almond crust is essential for a successful Cranberry Curd Tart recipe . Follow these simple steps to ensure your crust turns out just right: Preheat the Oven: Start by adjusting your oven rack to the middle position and preheating it to 350°F (175°C). 

Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cornstarch, granulated sugar, and salt until well combined. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the melted butter and almond extract. Use a wooden spoon or spatula to stir until a uniform dough forms.

 Crumble about two-thirds of this dough evenly into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Press it down firmly to create an even layer on the bottom and evenly along the sides. Place the pan on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for approximately 20 minutes, rotating it halfway through for even baking. 

Chill the Dough: If the dough seems too crumbly, chill it for about 15 minutes. This makes it more manageable. Don’t forget to poke the bottom of the crust with a fork to prevent bubbling during baking.  

The crust should be golden brown when done. Keep an eye on it to avoid over-baking.  With these steps and tips, your almond crust will provide a delicious and flaky foundation for your tart. 

Recipe for Cranberry Curd

Now that the almond crust is ready, it’s time to create the star of the show: the cranberry curd! This filling is what gives the tart its vibrant color and tangy flavor, perfectly balancing the sweetness of the curd. 

Here’s what you’ll need:  fresh or frozen cranberries , granulated sugar, divided ,  cup water , Pinch of salt , 3 large egg yolks , 2 teaspoons cornstarch , 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened.  First ; Cook the Cranberries: In a medium saucepan, combine cranberries, sugar, water, and a pinch of salt. 

Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and maintain a gentle simmer until the cranberries burst—about 10 minutes.  Transfer this mixture to a food processor and blend until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer to remove any solids—this ensures a silky-textured curd.

Assembling the Tart

Layering the Curd on the Crust : Start by pouring the cooled cranberry curd directly onto the pre-baked crust. Spread it evenly using an offset spatula for a smooth finish.Bake the Tart: Place the assembled tart in the preheated oven and bake for about 12 to 15 minutes. 

You want it to be set with a gently jiggly center, which indicates a perfectly luscious curd. Once removed from the oven, let it cool on a wire rack for about an hour before transferring to the refrigerator. The chilling step helps the curd fully set, making it easier to slice and serve later.

Garnishing and Serving Suggestions for this recipe

When it comes to garnishing your tart, the options are as endless as your creativity! Here are a few serving suggestions:

Whipped Cream:  For a beautiful finish.

Sugared Cranberries: For a festive touch that adds a lovely crunch.

Candied Citrus Peels: Can introduce another layer of flavor and elegance.

Slice the tart into wedges, serve with extra whipped cream on the side, and watch as everyone falls in love with this stunning dessert .
