Barrel Stands (and other weird desires)
MokeyHokey:
Grits are yummy, especially with plenty of butter and pepper. ;D
My stepsister came from Long Island NY and I'm from Georgia. We'd constantly debate the "correct" terminology--she'd get on line at McDonalds and I'd get IN line at McD's and online on my computer . ;)
witch:
Terry Pratchett has a recipe for Strawberry Wobbler in Nanny Ogg's Cookbook which sounds really interesting, though the publishers made her take some of the ingredients out...
jrd:
"him", Terry is a male name.
Renatus:
And it wasn't the actual planet earth publishers that made him take it out. ;) It was the Discworld ones, added for comedic effect. After all, I doubt Earth has the ingredients that Nanny Ogg would consider 'exciting' and the discworld publishers call 'dangerous'.
(Also, wasn't it the chocolate dessert, and not Strawberry Wobbler? The editor's note on the Wobbler is a note about the moulds she recommended, not ingredients...)
witch:
Sorry, I meant the discworld publishers made Nanny Ogg take some of the ingredients out. So it was 'she', but not terribly comprehensibly...
As for the rest, you're dead right, it was the unavailable moulds for the strawberry wobbler that was the problem. They settled for champagne flutes in the end. The Chocolate Delight with Special Secret Sauce was indeed the more dangerous food item. I can only plead Alzheimers.
It was the Spotted Dick which made me think of Nanny Ogg. 8)
