After over a year on hiatus. I finally finished the next chapter of my novella of, I don't know what to call it, psychological horror fantasy set in the #ForgottenRealms, Personal Demon.

The recipe was Fendarl's Gate Morningfeast Hardbread from Juniper's Companion to Venturesome Cookery.

The source of the quote in that Trump–Epstein letter is "Higglety Pigglety Pop! or There Must Be More to Life" by Maurice Sendak, 1967.

Damn, this scene is dark for a children's book.

Maybe this is why I included so many poisoning tales in The Forgotten Realms Wiki Presents Juniper's Companion to Venturesome Cookery?🤔

I'm getting back into the Phantom and I was impressed to see Frank Frazetta once drew the Ghost Who Walks, for a trading card series in 1996. And I don't think we've ever seen Devil so savage.😆

If I had a buck for every time the TARDIS mutated into a vast bone structure in the sky over a city in another universe, in an awful story about a final battle over the fate of the Time Lords...

25 years on and Davies and Moffat never escaped the shadow of the ED fuckin' As.

Bonus: A rare first-time success for me, a Bargewright Inn–style spud, i.e., a hasselbacked potato baked in olive oil with paprika and mustard powder. It was very tender and nice.

If you think that's bad, I got the original Dirge when he was first released. And time has not been kind.

I made Lemon, Garlic, & Oil Potatoes salad, part of the Tonguelash spread served at the Yardarm tavern in Velen, Tethyr, in the #ForgottenRealms. From our upcoming #dungeonsanddragons cookbook, The Forgotten Realms Wiki Presents Juniper's Companion to Venturesome Cookery.

Which is odd, because one of the sources of gelatin is bone and it is extracted using acid. 🤔

I'm pleased to share a birthday with the Phantom, the very first costumed comic-book superhero, who made his first appearance 89 years ago today.

I drew a tressym from the #ForgottenRealms, to go in Juniper's Companion to Venturesome Cookery. I used my own cat as the model, since he joined me when I was trying to figure out the pose, but wouldn't sit still long enough to be very helpful.

I went to a costume party as the fourth Doctor. Then I got beat by Darth Vader.

And yes, a coat and scarf was an ordeal on an Australian summer evening.

My sister has been excited about her growing pineapple "baby". 🍍 Well, after I was done housesitting, they came home to discover that baby's eyes have opened. 😆
