wiseheartI'd like you to know that the Gode Cookery website is a delight. I never imagined so many medieval recipes would still exist. I checked out the site for a menu that would match Lord Orchald's Yule feast, and found the most intriguing things possible.

Ahem. Yes. Lord Orchald has always been played by Sean Connery, but now I have "cast" Stuart Townsend as his son, young Lord Herumor. The boy looks pretty, but not in a feminine way, and long hair suits him greatly. I think he was considered to play Aragorn for a while, but then the idea was discarded because he looked too young. That's true, actually. He does look too young for a LOTR-era Strider. But as a young Estel, when he meets Arwen for the first time, he'd be great. Assuming someone else than Miss Overbite would play Arwen, of course.
I hope to finish this Advent series in time. The first part of DAy 24 is already finished, but I needed to break it into several pieces, so that it won't become overly long compared to the earlier parts. I still have at least two more parts to write. But again, I still have two days, haven't I? It would be ridiculous, should I not manage to finish it.
I was actually surprised to see that some people liked it. A series with nothing but original characters in it, who are all - well, most of them - doomed to die horribly in a few months' time is nothing you'd suppose to become popular. Well, popular is probably a bit too optimistic. But people really seem to like it.

Mira offered to make a Sean Connery=Lord Orchald photomanip for me. *hugs Mira* Now if I only could figure out how this photobucket hosting thingy worked, I could even show you folks the result.
