Pride & Prejudice

Vikings
‘I’ll Tell You A Story’ — ‘Tell me,’ he said over the snapping flames, the gentle glow casting his face partially in shadow, while pronouncing his eyes, ‘do you miss it?“ Picking at her food, her journal securely held in her lap, she fiddled with the glued binding. 'My home, you mean, or my time?’ 'Are they not the same’ he posed, lifting the corner of his mouth when she met his gaze. She looked away, unable to answer. Warnings: Adult themes, Mature

Recipes
Over the past year or so I’ve begun entering the world of baking and have found that it suits me fine:) My sweet tooth can be sated much faster and with the added satisfaction that I made the delicious treat myself.
Of course I am still learning and picking up tricks and tips; often times with new recipes my patience has to accommodate several batches until I get it right. I find that it is worth it, though.
My hope is that this can be a place of discussion; of trading advice and sharing recipes. I take childish pleasure in the growing collection of ‘tools’ I’ve amassed, but am ever more eager to learn new and fun recipes!
