Nerd food.
« on: November 10, 2014, 06:38:45 PM »
So I can't be the only one who starts craving whatever food is being described when I'm reading a novel.
Heres a website dedicated to nerdy foods, I've successfully made both virgin and non virgin mudders milk and unsuccessfully made beorn's honey cake. http://www.geekychef.com/
I also found a recipe for seedcake somewhere, the hobbit always makes me mega hungry. As does a fair amount of the first (and best) parts of LOTR. I'll post it up here later.
Anyone else made such stuffs?

I'm rather partial to a nice plate of slumpie but that's only because of the Discworld cookbook. On the other hand when reading Witches Abroad I would have loved to try Mrs. Gogol's gumbo. Actually the same happens when a gumbo machine is offered as a snack machine in The Simpsons. Is gumbo tasty..?

I've been planning to make a black forest gateau Portal cake :D And I made pokeball cookies a couple of years ago :P

Also, SotK Gamma made Lembas bread once. He didn't like it, but I thought it was lovely :) Kind of like shortbread :)

So, I got some Portal cookie cutters from SotK for Christmas :)

Tried out some companion cubes with leftover gingerbread dough :)

Meh, the dough I used rises more than sugar cookie dough, which it suggests in the cookie cutter pack, and I only had a few icing colours, but they're cute in their own way :P

O.o Amazing!
Most effective elected official. Ever. (not counting Jubal)

He is Jubal the modder, Jubal the wayfarer, Jubal the admin. And he has come to me now, at the turning of the tide.
