Bottéro thinks it's likely that there were meat pies in the Old Babylonian period, although he only has the written recipe for a "false pie" with birds presented between layers of pastry.

It's my birthday! My birthday wish is for you to share your favorite work from this year and I'll boost it. Here's mine, "The Metamorphosis". Becoming disabled might feel like Kafkaesque horror, but there's a beautiful path to acceptance and a good life. Also there's sloths. gavagai.com/posts/3894

Love Michael Hurley, and this is a great appreciation. "The Tea Song" is always a mid-fall afternoon for me. "Werewolf Song" also a great one from First Songs.

Oh, I've just started A Place of Greater Safety (100 pages in counts as "just started," I suppose)! Wolf Hall didn't really do it for me, for some reason, yet I'm entranced by this one.

I’m reading this for the first time now!

John Crowley, Endless Things

“What if the hope then was that a story told about that wonderful and hopeful marriage might change its nature backward, and make it far more wonderful; what if language of the right kind, describing that more wonderful thing, could be powerful enough to change altogether what it described, even when what it described was something that has already happened? Gematria: the alteration of preexistant things by the alteration of the letters that constitute their true names, which first brought them into being.
And then to go on from there along the new way." - John Crowley, Endless Things

This is, as Shaboozey might say, Good News!

In time, those Unconscionable Maps no longer satisfied, and the Cartographers Guilds struck a Map of Love-for-the-World whose size was that of the World, and which coincided point for point with it.
