A great one was pepper chicken and apple pancakes. Nice, simple, and got me broken in for pepper and sweet, which blossomed into a love of brownies with chiles.
Mmm, that sounds good.
Whoa. Good myth.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Pepper chocolate sounds like something Leif might invent.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Kat & lori had me try some pepper chocolate. It was different.
That stuff is like my on switch for a steak craving. So I pretty much avoid it.

Oh, it wasn't bad. It was just different, the way unsweet chocolate in some mexican recipes is different. There's a moment when you just sit there, trying to figure out, now what exactly does this taste like? I'm not a big sweet chocolate fan, so that was the biggest part of the eh for me.

My grandma would cook fruitcake on New Years and store it in a container (in the coset or the fridge, there is some dispute over this) soaking it in rum monthly and gifting them the following christmas.
Last year we did this for a shorter period of time, before Thanksgiving, through Christmas. We referred to the daily spritzing with brandy as "feeding the bitch."
Me, getting home from work: Hi, honey. Did you feed the bitch?
Man that cake was good. I don't understand the bad rep fruitcake gets either. It must be those neon things in there.

Where is Kat? She was looking for saddle shoes the other day. Because here`s a source that was a Dress A Day today: [link]

I did not know that fruitcake was drinky. Or maybe, it isn't consistently so, because my experience of fruitcakes was seeing them at various relatives' houses, full of those neon things, never being eaten. They seemed very generic (and probably store-bought) and pointless, as holiday confections go. You gotta be prettier to compete with church window cookies and gingerbread people and buche de noel, you know?
I wonder if you can make fruitcake without the fruit. Probably it would just be called "cake." With some nice confectioner's sugar or glaze on top, there's a chance I would eat it.
