Last week I had the opportunity to bake and share Charles Benson’s ginger bread recipe ! I used coals and a bake kettle, and we had actual sour milk! It was a labor-intensive process and took about 2 hours from starting the fire to pulling the cake off the coals.

I was told it was very delicious and not a crumb was left after lunchtime, and that the recipe is going to be one used for ongoing interpretation.

I hope Mr. Benson would be pleased that this recipe has been so popular so far into the future.

Slayers: A Buffyverse Story

Release date: October 12, 2023.

Original cast members from the beloved TV series, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, reunite for an all-new adventure about connections that never die — even if you bury them. A decade has passed since the epic final battle that concluded Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV). The game-changing spell that gave power to all potential Slayers persists. With new Slayers constantly emerging, things are looking grim for the bad guys. Rebellious vampire Spike is working undercover in Los Angeles with his old pal Clem when he meets feisty, rookie Slayer, Indira, who wants Spike to be her mentor. Stakes intensify as Cordelia Chase emerges from an alternate reality where she alone is the Slayer, and Buffy Summers doesn’t exist. Cordelia enlists Spike’s help with a classic big bad terrorizing her world…his ex, Drusilla. Giles, Anya, Jonathan, and Tara also return, but through the years and the vastness of the multiverse, not everyone is who they used to be…

Writers: Christopher Golden, Amber Benson.

Starring: James Marsters as Spike; Laya DeLeon Hayes as Indira; Charisma Carpenter as Cordelia; Emma Caulfield as Anya and Anyanka; Amber Benson as Tara; James Charles Leary as Clem; Juliet Landau as Drusilla; Anthony Head as Giles; Phina Oruche as Olivia; and Danny Strong as Ghost Jonathan.

Also Featuring: Julia Cho as Ms. Bang; Josh Petersdorf as Kurgan; Juno Dawson as Miranda; Jessica Gardner as Amy Madison; Cheryl Umana as Zantina; Joshua McClenney as Rahim; Denise Pickering as Buzz; Glenda Morgan Brown as Esther; Jasmine Hyde as Althenea; and Michael Swan.

Charles Benson, a Black mariner from Salem, authored many journals that are a fascinating glimpse into the life of an ordinary Black man at sea in the mid to late 1800s. In his later journals he invented a code, presumably to keep prying eyes away from his innermost thoughts. 

Here’s a few I’ve translated!

Jan 26: CAPTAIN AND MATE HAD A GROUL (groul being an outdated spelling of ‘growl’, meaning argument

Oct 10: drank lots of bad BRANDY GOT TITE (got tight, meaning got drunk!)

Big news today about "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" as the show teamed up with Audible to record a new story called "Slayers" that centered on Spike 20 years after the show ended and he's helping out a new teenage slayer Indria in LA pretending to be a villain again. While trying to find a watcher they get caught up exposing a multiverse and in a new reality were Cordelia became the slayer instead of Buffy and the big bad is Drucilla!!! :D The story was written by Amber Benson and Christopher Golden, and James Marsters, Chrisma Carpenter, Anthony Head, Juliet Landau, Emma Caulfield, Amber Benson, James Charles Leary, and Danny Strong are all back in their roles and newcomer Laya DeLeon Hayes voices Indria.

They're going to be at New York Comic Con next month too revealing more about this and makes me wonder if others will be in the story too that they'll announce there. This story does remind me a bit of some of my old "Buffy" novels that was a 4 part series that included Buffy being trapped in another universe and us seeing one on the show before too. Also curious if what happened in the comics also happened in this story as well and what they'll mention about the other characters, and if this gets a print version as some of Audible's stories have.

The story premiere's October 12th and their NYCC panel is the next day the 13th.
