Food and Fandom: Forged Frittata

Food and Fandom: Forged Frittata

Wow, I think it's almost been a year since I've put up a new food and fandom post! Not that I've been lacking food inspiration, just that I've been lacking the motivation to actually plan out what type of foods to make based on the books I've read (or the anime I've watched--and boy, watching [...]

Food and Fandom: Heist Hutspot

I could have probably named this any number of things, including "Kanej Hutspot," because let's face it, I totally made this dish because it's one that Kaz Brekker and Inej Ghafa go back to when they're talking about sharing food during one of their heists. And I love this pairing so. Damn. Much. tl;dr (click [...]

I swear, every time I see Russian-inspired foods in a book, I go out of my way to try to make it. I managed to do this same thing when reading Katherine Arden's The Bear and the Nightingale trilogy (although I think it's called the Winternight trilogy). So it's no surprise that when reading Crooked [...]

Food and Fandom: Matthias’ Semla

It's all about the Grishaverse this weekend, and as a commemoration of having absolutely binged the TV show of Shadow and Bone within a day, I figured I'd post about this lovely food I picked up from Matthias' wistful thinking! tl;dr (click on the semla recipe here) This was something different. If the demon Brekker [...]

I've been greatly neglecting many things, including this poor blog, but here I am, coming from the woodwork on this chilly--but lovely--Easter morn to talk about food that I ended up making out of the fiction I've been reading! So I finished Lore by Alexandra Bracken some days ago, and I would be remiss if [...]

Mari-with-an-I prefers her fantasies drenched in oil and fried up in faerie, but when that’s not the case, she’ll read it anyway. She likes writing what she reads, and likes baking while she writes. She’s written a few things for anthologies, including an anthology that got translated into Czech (I know, right?! Eeeeee!), and if you haven’t read them yet, she urges you to do so! Who knows, there might be a few cookies waiting for you at the end of the read.

…Or not. (Blast her pet steampoctopus for eating them all!)

Reading Ratings (in Cookies)

5 cookies = Book was so deliciously awesome that I couldn't put it down or get it out of my mind for a while.

4 cookies = Book was great and certainly worth the read.

3 cookies = Book was good but I expected better.

2 cookies = Meh.

1 cookie = Why did I even bother?!

I have so much research to do this weekend but FIRST, let me soak in the fact I'm mostly recovered from the 'vid and it's now summer break and Fire Emblem Three Hopes just came out so we all know what I'm doing when I'm not at the waterfront 😂
Another year done! Until the next!
