I'm back, but only in spirit. Nice to know I was missed, however.
I'll be around here or there, more or later, but all in might do me in. Baby steps.

Good think indeed. When I am king, autocorrect gets to spend its last days in The Scorpion Pits.

Third for Small Gods. And, even Flashman is a bit much by today's standards, George Macdonald Frasier's The Pyrates is riotously funny.

I think the question is why does your kid dig those two: wordbuilding? Fantasy elements? Escapism? Satire (Pratchett's legit my favorite satirist since Mark Twain)?
If it's the worldbuilding, Dune? If the fantasy bit, maybe The Night Circus? If the satire maybe The Master & Margarita?

Oooooh and that Turkey Molé might be replaced when we have time (not tomorrow- 1/2 pig and fish day), but let us never speak of this again.

And it's *insane* to use good knives in a butcher shop. I just like being out of restaurants. Where it's insaner unless you work at, I dunno, n/naka.
I just am old, tired, and mad, and like to treat myself.

I've given up on German knives entirely, save for maybe Messermeister.
I love carbon Sabatiers from France.
But I am so far over the nerdrizon, it's not even funny. My favorite knives are made with Hitachi white paper 1 or 2. They need sharpening ~ weekly, but I can adjust them, which I love.
