Goodness, some salty, some not

I'm so glad I didn't say at the start of October that I was planning on posting daily. I've managed to post each week, though. That's something

A ♥ from me is not enough, so please imagine that Edmund is looking up at the sky and thinking wistfully of you.

I hope Charles is by his side!

I dont think they are, even if they're really yummy. This is what we [romanians], or I, get by saltines.

Hope you feel better soon :).

Okay, that google page made me feel really hungry! Except for the crackers that looked like little pigs - way too cute to eat!

I'm tons better, thanks! Just weary from the week now, and wishing it were Friday evening!

[kindofdanceit]

They're really tasty and easy to make, I could give you a recipe if you want one.

Friday evening is almost here! :)

I couldn't make them look like sweet little pigs though - I'd never eat them! I'd appreciate the recipe, if it's easy to share - thank you. I've got my parents coming to visit tomorrow, so I'd like to bake for them.

I think the closest you'd find in the UK is a (Carr's) water biscuit. Saltines are flakier and saltier but it's the same basic concept.

[oxoniensis]

I like water biscuits - perhaps I should just sprinkle them with nice big granules of sea salt.

[trcunning]

It's a little involved ~but~ you could make a layer of them on a cookie sheet, spritz them with a little water, sprinkle on some salt, and let them set in a low oven (or sunny window sill). That should adhere the salt to the biscuit.

I've made a mental note to try that if/when I have another stomach bug like that again. Good suggestion - thank you!

Aww, I hope you feel better. It's awesome that you're still able to appreciate the finer things in life (fandom) though. Who needs food when you have delicious fanfic, eh? Also, I have no idea how you manage to ever post close to daily, or even weekly. Major props for at least trying!

[oxoniensis]

I'm absolutely fine now, thank you! Well, shattered from a long day at work, but when is that not the case?!

I used to post more frequently. I even posted a fanfic or fanart every day for weeks for an Advent Calendar last December, though I'm in such a state of writer's block right now that I'm boggling at how I did it. So I'm being lazy and reading instead at the moment - so much good fic to read!
