So, we have confirmation that Bellara and Lucanis take over cooking because they fear the others would either starve or poison themselves otherwise. Now they must come to that conclusion from experience, and I can't wait to discover why everyone else is banned from the kitchen.

How many people put the kitchen on fire?

Who can cook only the most basic bland food, offending Lucanis's delicate sensibility ?

Who accidentally poisoned the food ?

Whenever someone says "This would kill a Victorian child." Or "This would kill a medieval peasant." I have to think about Machete. Would he... would he survive eating a Dorito?

People say that northern food is bland when in reality, northern food done poorly is bland.

Northern food relies a lot on the flavor of the ingredients instead of spices to get its flavor. Just a hint of seasoning, like salt and pepper. The point of it is to let the ingredients stand out. If it's not cooked to respect the natural flavor, it's going to taste bad.

So no, we don't cover or laden or dishes with spices. It stems from the fact that the north doesn't provide a great environment for spices. But we found how to make our food taste good without it.

Case in point:

I made a clam chowder earlier this year with a recipe that was more orientated for my state. Salt and pepper were the only seasonings- the flavor came from the clam juice and bacon. It was good.

I've made Dublin coddle several times, which is an Irish dish. Salt and pepper are the main seasonings. It gets its flavor from the sausage and bacon, and the vegetables. It makes a delicious gravy to mop up with the right kind of bread.

Northern food isn't bland. It needs to be cooked right.

Children can be the most cruel creatures alive. They have the herd instinct of prejudice against any outsider, and they are merciless in its indulgence

We've talked about how lmm doesn't talk down to her child readers, and this is another example of it. LMM recognizes that children are people with feelings, and that same recognition allows for the fact that children can be as cruel and ruthless as any other person off the street.

there are two types of wyler shippers:

the ones who were heartbroken by the reveal

and the ones who became invested after the reveal

[liyazaki]

it was real & it was great & it was real great, but I'm just gonna say it: that might have been the most forgettable finale I've ever seen, point blank period.

anyway andrea time again. she works retail and whenever she's not scheduled, she tries to pick up shifts as a spanish to english interpreter at the local hospital. it's not ideal and she works a lot, but it works for her and brock!! she used to depend on her mom to help out with brock when she has to work late, but jesse has taken on that role and with unexpected enthusiasm. she's never dated a guy who was so eager to help her out and take care of brock: then again, she's never really dated a guy like jesse. he even agrees to watch brock while she's busy with the rush of holiday shoppers and has to stay after her shift is over to clean up and refold everything, which means she's coming home at nearly ten o'clock in a tired, miserable mood. but as she opens her front door, she's hit by the scent of pepper and garlic and momentarily forgets about how much her feet hurt. brock runs in to greet her and just as andrea's about to chastise him for still being awake past his bedtime, he starts pulling on her hand: "hurry, mama!! before it gets cold again." andrea follows him and the smell to the kitchen, where jesse is standing by the stove with the kind of almost nervous, sort of proud, blatantly hopeful smile that brock gives right before he presents her with a drawing. "im sorry for letting him stay up so late, but i thought since its friday, maybe it'd be okay. um. i made u pozole. we made u pozole, i mean. i didnt let him use the knife. it got kinda cold, but i think its still good??" andrea stands there for a second, looking at the pot on the stovetop and thinking about how nobody has ever butchered the pronunciation of "pozole" as badly as jesse just did, then crosses the kitchen to grab his face and kiss him; brock goes "ewwwwww" behind her. jesse is always trying to give her things, offering to pay the bills and getting new stuff for her place, but none of that measures up to a hot (well. warm) bowl of her favorite dish after a long day of denying expired coupons and putting shirts back on hangers. it's sweet and kind of clumsy and earnest—like a high schooler trying to ask a girl out to the prom—which is what she loves about him. she's never really dated a guy like jesse, which is a total shame for the rest of the male population because she never wants to date any other kind of guy again.
