I think I may just explode. I shrieked so loudly the baby stared at me like I'd lost my mind, which I had. Not that I should read this. Even though the stories I've read so far are really quite good. Still, I should not read this. Really.

To make up for it, a DCU fic rec and a multifandom art rec:

[livejournal.com profile] mildredmilton wrote "The Talk", because when one has teenage sidekicks one must take care of their sex education, mustn't one? [livejournal.com profile] petronelle reviewed this story better than I can, but I'll just say that this story needed to be written and that if it hasn't been recced by the time I'm reccing for [livejournal.com profile] crack_van I'm going to rec it.

[livejournal.com profile] hyel, who draws in many fandoms including Bujold, Pratchett, and LOTR (and writes well, too), has started the community [livejournal.com profile] absurdconcept for her fanworks. (Earlier stuff can be found on [livejournal.com profile] hyelandia, which is well worth going through). If you recieved a beautiiful Winter Holiday card from me this last year, she drew it.

This is from an issue of Saveur I found while packing for the move. I wish I could show you the accompanying picture; it looks like gilded bacon.

Billionaire's Bacon

"The late chef and food consultant Gene Hovis gave the recipe for this decadent appetizer to Mortimer's in NYC; that restaraunt's succesor, Swifty's, still serves it at cocktail parties both on premises and off. Separate strips from 1 lb. bacon and blot dry with wide paper towels. Put 1&1/2 cups light brown sugar into a wide dish. Coat both sides of bacon in sugar, firmly pressing sugar onto each strip. Lay bacon out on sheet pans as coated (some sugar will fall off). Cook bacon in a preheated 425 F oven, turning once, until browned and laquered, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a lightly oiled sheet pan to let cool. Break slices into thirds." Revel in the bacony goodness.
