being a writer is

50% daydreaming about plots and writing

50% procrastinating/suffering during the actual writing process

I just discovered foodtimeline.org, which is exactly what it sounds like: centuries worth of information about FOOD.  If you are writing something historical and you want a starting point for figuring out what people should be eating, this might be a good place?

Mr. and Mrs. I. N. Phelps Stokes

Artist: John Singer Sargent (American, 1856–1925)

Date: 1897

Medium: Oil on canvas

Collection: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City, NY, United States

Mr. and Mrs. I.N. Phelps Stokes

The portrait depicts the New York architect and philanthropist Isaac Newton Phelps Stokes (1867–1944) and his wife, Edith Minturn Stokes (1867–1937), whom he married in 1895, and had previously posed for Daniel Chester French's Statue of The Republic that was featured at the World's Columbian Exposition.

The portrait was commissioned as a wedding gift for the couple and originally planned to feature Edith alone in evening wear. It was then changed to Edith in day wear posing next to a Great Dane. The dog became unavailable, and Isaac stood in its place.
