New Post on Ether Capacious: Moses the Black (because sometimes them naughty Catholik boyz is funny)
Thangs is so bad out theah in the real world--a real ciff-hanger ya' might say--that I'se lookin' to escape. Every Day. Escape.
When life is this fraught wif' anxiety, any decent woman turns to chocolate. Heah's mah current stash:
Stayin' true to mah goal to avoid harsh realities, I ignored all the mornin' chores an' piled mahself up in a comfy chair to thumb through catalogs an' read a new book on local food.
Y'all, wait 'til Uncle discovers thar's a local distillery 40 miles up the road what' they make "Artisanal Florida sipping whiskey" from Florida grown corn: "this ain't yore Daddy's moonshine." A few lucky fellas on mah list is gonna git some o' this fer they own Merry Merry Christmas.
One reality avoidance maneuver led to another an' afore ya' knowed it, I wuz fully charmed by this English sprite who cooks in Paris' smallest bistro--her cramped apartment-- whar' her maximum seating is two. But doan feel sorry fer her, 'cause the BBC now done made her an offer of her own TV show--move over Nigella.
How does she manage in this retro 1940s kitchen??
Ah, savory is good ( might substitute apricots fer the prunes, though), but looky!! CHOCOLATE!!
Well, see? We's been full circle--it's back to chocolate. Pudding. Mousse. Pastry cream. Wif' nibs. Eat it now in case thar's no dessert in a post-cliff dive world.

Well, ain't she cute? Wonder if BBCA might ever run her show. Meanwhile. I'll be lookin' fer that local larder lexicon. Gettin' more local - and ever localer - all the time.
Escape... sigh. I just finished a freebie bag of Ghirardelli chocolates. The dark with raspberry purt near made me swoon.
Keep reminding myownself... GOD is in control. Good thing, coz we dun made a royal mess o' things. All that corruption what took place, yet the opposition rolls over and plays dead. *sigh*

Thangs is a royal mess fer shure, hence mah escapism into Feast and Field, which be a grand fun book. Hope they have a copy up your way.
Good afternoon Aunty Belle,
Cute indeed and what a kitchen. The bit about should be 4 hours, but an hour will do. Was a hoot.
Often a situation ingnored, gets worse. Now is not the time to cede the field.
Tummy troubles has got me banned from chocolates. The wuthdrawal bout sent Blowfish to the casserole ladies.
Sigh ... I love her old porcelain bowl,the still lit with a match 2 burner, the tiles in the Kitchen, and this comment, "you need a bit of cling film".
Moonshine is legal again in the Carolinas so Moonshine places are popping up bout as often as the micro brewerys.
Nice of you to share this find Belle, twas a nice time out from the "have-tos"

My post dinner routine, a piece of darkydark chocolate in one hand and a sensible amount of cocoa roasted almonds in the other.
