Day. Oh.

[madshutterbug]

A bit stiff and sore last evening, after all that maneuvering of the posing block to mount the casters to make it easier to move. Succeeded, it's easier to move. Stiff. Sore. Hot soaking tub helped with that.

Worked on some photographs today. Uploaded to a specialty site, will continue the working uploads over the next couple days so I can make a posting here.

Herself is home from SCA and Iron Chef Trimaris. The 'secret ingredient' this year (provided by the organisers) was... goat. Old goat. Tough, old goat. Tough, old goat with a lot of bone. Got made into stew for the most part, but Herself both wowed and weirded out the judges by quite correctly preparing brains and eyes.

Braaaaiiiiinnnnsss...

Hm, somehow zombie goat just... doesn't do it for me.

uh! Goat brains? um...prions?
Last year we assisted with culling a scrapie positive sheep herd.
Brains are possibly the one thing I *wont* eat.

I learned not to volunteer as a judge in any kind of edibles last time I was doing the brewing competition at Warlord. This just makes me certain I was right to learn that.

I know sheep's eyes were a delicacy in the Middle East in the Middle Ages, but I hadn't heard about the brains. Kinda wish I didn't know now. :)

Well, lamb's brains are still a pretty common food now - I can't stand the things, but my aunt likes them - so I can't imagine goat would be very different...

No, no, no. It's pronounced "Braaaay-nes". Gotta get that throat warble in.
