Raspberry Fool with Lemon & Rosemary Butter Cookies

Raspberry Fool with Lemon & Rosemary Butter Cookies©Kevin Ashton 2023 History Of The Term Fool Historically, cooks and chefs where not know for writing recipes and methods down, thus recipes were frequently passed on verbally, often leading to the origins of a dish being disputed. You might even say a mishmash, which is appropriate!  The word ‘Foole’ was first mentioned as a dessert in 1598, made…

So I went to see the local dinner theater's production of that Dracula play wherein Renfield impersonates a doctor and here are some things I'd forgotten:

Jonathan Harker first shows up charging into the asylum, emptying his gun into Dracula, and immediately faints afterward. Also he has a beard, the state of which suggests he hasn't shaved since Dracula tossed the mirror months prior

Dracula has a big black horse named Lilith which has been with him for "a long time" and is extremely fast, so I'm assuming Dracula vamp'd his horse

At one point Van Helsing is reading Latin prayers from a book to make Dracula fuck off, except then Dracula asks if Van Helsing can read in the dark and uses his Making Lightbulbs Explode vampire power to explode the lightbulbs

The actor playing Dracula howled at the end of his "children of the night, what sweet music they make" line, and then howled again after he made Mina (Lucy in this version) drink his blood

Also he for some reason stabbed the bag before he threw it to his brides, I guess just out of spite at them

The play opened with Lucy (Mina in this version) and Dracula having a lovely choreographed dance number together

But enough about that, let's talk about the themed cocktails the dinner theater was offering:

Dracula's Blood: Black raspberry liqueur, raspberry vodka, cranberry juice, and it glitters!

Black Magic: Grape pucker, blue Curacao, cherry syrup, cranberry juice, splash of Starry

Bloody Mina: Bloody Mary mix, clamato juice, tequila, dill brine, Tabasco

Renfield's Elixir: Coffee liqueur, coconut rum, pina colada mix, ice cream base, grenadine

Cherries & Berries: Mixed berry & strawberry puree, rum, lime, margarita mix, served frozen

Also shooters:

The Monster: Apple pucker, spiced rum, lime juice

Van Helsing: Triple sec, grapefruit vodka, lime juice

The Brides: Coffee liqueur, butterscotch schnapps, vanilla vodka

FORAGING FOR HOLLY AS WINTER BEGINS.

Today is the 13th and last new moon of the Celtic year; the Elder (tree) Moon. You may know it as December 1st 2024 but next year the new moon and the first of December may not coincide. The vagaries of the secular Roman calendar mean that it does not follow the moon's female cycle.

It was mild.  We set out for the Wild Wood on a Holly Forage. I love going out to cut holly for the house. Most of you know by now that I do everything naked. This day was no exception.  It was good to be outside with the soft winter light bathing my skin.  I grabbed my Minnie Mouse shopping bag then we headed up the track to the wood.  It lies part way up a hill and the brisk climb warmed us. I kept on my beanie and my pink wellies. Black over the knee socks kept my legs and feet warm.

In Celtic mythology, Holly carries great importance. I have spoken of the Derwen (Oak tree) before.  The Oak King reigns the bright half of the year. Celynen, the Holly tree, is an emblem of Winter. Its shiny dark green leaves and scarlet berries shine out in an otherwise leafless woodland.  The Holly King now reigns supreme in the darker portion of the year.

For thousands of years, people have gathered sprays from this Winter tree to garland and beautify homes in the darker days.  The berries are poisonous to humans but the tree and leaves are known for their wonderful, magical properties. Holly wood, ivory white and hard, makes well balanced spear shafts for hunting.  Babies were bathed in holly leaf water to safeguard them from ills. The Holly, like the Elder, was known to protect homes from evil spirits and to guard against lightning. The Holly symbolises peace and goodwill. An entwined wreath of holly brings good luck and faeries are thought to use it for shelter in the winter months; bringing good fortune on those who keep some of the boughs in their home.

We threaded the muddy paths of the Wild Wood and saw few other folk.  Out on the pasture close by, a mixed flock of sheep were grazing, brought down here from the winter fells. There are many holly bushes here, dotted about among the taller trees.  Most of them are male.  You can tell them by the yellow flowers they sport in the warmer months. The female trees bear pure white flowers, and later, abundant scarlet berries. One male tree can fertilise up to about eight females (as long as they are no more than 300 feet apart)!

The Holly has a life of around 100 years, sometimes a little more. Like most trees, they embody a wisdom all their own. Look at a mature holly tree, particularly the taller ones (they can grow at least to 30 feet).  Lower down, the leaves are spiny; a great defence against being eaten by cattle.  Up above, the leaves lack spines and are gently smooth around the edges.

Once home, we will use the holly boughs to adorn our home as the Winter Solstice approaches. We decorate the fireplace, dresser, door frames and mantles to cheer the house as the light fails.  Naked, you have to take care not to get pricked by the spines; ouch! We'll place holly above the old Welsh Dresser too.  On its shelves, alongside the plates and crockery, stand two bottles of wild raspberry schnapps made from fruit foraged in late summer. Here's raising a glass to the turning of the year, the lengthening days and the returning power of the northern sun. Only then will we be able to spend long warm, naked days outdoors again.

If you are a naturist like us and you enjoyed this post, please like, share and re-blog with our blessing.  All photographs were provided by my professional photographer husband (also pictured below).

Thank you Mart for taking such great images. All photos remain our copyright. We welcome messages of support and chats with other genuine naturists or the 'naturally inclined'.

If you simply enjoy looking at pictures of naked girls like me and don't want to read the blog, that's okay too.  We won't block you, even if you have one of those creepily empty blogs. If you send messages or images of a sexual nature however, don't expect me to respond. They will generally be deleted and occasionally blocked. Finally, since you clearly appreciate nakedness, why not do us a favour and try it yourself? That weirdly vacant blog of yours could do with at least one naked, naturist photograph of you!

My blog depicts non-sexual nudity. This time I won't be posting solo pics separately as I have done previously.  Too many of those shots have been re-blogged onto sexually themed sites, sorry. I love sex and intimacy but you won't find it on this blog. My blog is flagged as 'adult' because of its naturist content, not because there is anything sexual in its pages.

Enjoy your Winter naturism.

[redbullgivesyouwingedkuriboh]

hi. if you’re reading this that means it’s my 21st birthday. I had this idea and had to write it down immediately (it’s may 29th. see y’all in just under 6 months) so. yeah. enjoy. happy 21st birthday to me!

The GX Cast In: What they would order for their first legal drink at a bar

DISCLAIMER: blair is excluded from this one cause I can’t fathom her being an adult rn. all characters are considered to be of legal drinking age for the purposes of this post. I do not condone underage drinking. drink responsibly and always call for help if you or a friend are displaying symptoms of alcohol poisoning.

Jaden Yuki: I have determined that Jaden doesn’t like whiskey, but if it’s mixed in something he might be okay with it. a rum and coke would be his go-to. on the rocks, he can’t drink warm liquor.

Chazz Princeton: straight vodka. i have a working theory that the more trauma someone has the better they take shots. (this is not a healthy theory, to be sure, but Chazz certainly qualifies as an observable subject.) he will spit out any food that contains the tiniest amount of carrot but pounds vodka like a champ. he’s definitely tried to do the whole lime and salt thing but found he prefers the burn. I just want him to be okay :(

Dr. Crowler: wayyyyyy back in the day, a very hot, very gay bartender gave him a shot of raspberry schnapps on the house because he “looks like a raspberry schnapps kinda guy”. keeps a bottle of it in his office for feeling nostalgic. atticus has gotten into it more than once, with zero evidence left behind.

Syrus Truesdale: the fruitiest goddamn cocktail you’ve ever seen. there’s a bendy straw and a paper umbrella. probably served out of a pineapple. he does not want to so much as SENSE the alcohol

Alexis Rhodes: whiskey sour. asks for the lemon on the side and squeezes the juice directly into her mouth.

Atticus Rhodes: margaritas, plural. unironically sings “gimme one margarita ima open my legs” the entire time and has to be physically restrained in order to stop him.

Zane Truesdale: he can’t drink, he has a heart condition. however: him and atticus buy cheap wine from the liquor store on oct 31 and sit somewhere outside as the clock ticks over to midnight, making the switch from atticus’s birthday to zane’s. they toast. life is good. zane has palpatations immediately and never drinks again.

Aster Phoenix: wine aunt energy. exclusively drinks wine, but alternates between white and red. his palate changes depending on what he ate. for his twenty first birthday, he probably had steak (s2 fishing incident had me rolling on the ground laughing), which pairs well with cabernet (I think that’s a red) so he’d get red wine.

Yubel: technically has always been legal drinking age? regardless, the strongest whiskey you can find. Jaden dislikes whiskey, though, so has only ever gotten him to take one shot of it. collects the little shooter bottles. it’s really cute to see them all lined up.

Jesse Anderson: fruity cocktail for a fruity bitch. he’d order a sex on the beach, but it would go something like, “I’d like a, ah… ha, alrighty then. A s-sex on the… you know what I mean!”, followed up by Chazz saying, “oh my god he’d like a sex on the beach. jesus.”

Jim Crocodile Cook: not much of a drinker, but he’d also love the fruity cocktails. he would order a strawberry daiquiri. frozen. he’d also do a shot for the hell of it, probably of cheap vodka, and spend the rest of the evening wondering how everyone else is handling that stuff so well.

Axel Brodie: straight fucking gin. no additives, no garnish, no nothing. just axel and a shot glass. somehow never shows signs of being tipsy.

Adrian Gecko: beer. he thinks it makes him look relatable. unironically a beer drinker. probably PBA.

Bastion Misawa: he orders a shot of “your finest whiskey, barkeep”. sniffs it first. takes a little sip. “oh, goodness. no thank you.”

[theaussieblue]

The head canon's continue unabated. Just like me when I was banging your mom last night.

Hm. Running out of stuff to say. Ah well.

Surge has the sweetest sweet tooth. She loves to eat sweets - she doesn't care about quality, so much about quantity

Sonic loathes overly strong flavors. He's used to mild savory and bitter tastes from his diet, so things jammed with sugar disgust him, if only because he's not used to it.

Blaze has a selection of fine wines to drink. She has her own personal team of cooks and chefs and eats extremely well. She has never had to cook anything a day in her life, and doesn't know how.

Blaze thinks that food in Sonic's World is much, much tastier than the food in hers. This is because Blaze's world doesn't stuff food full of preservatives and chemicals. Blaze remains unaware of just what goes into cakes in Sonic's world, but if she ever found out she'd swear off it forever.

Shadow's taste buds are completely burned out. He eats coffee beans because that's all he can taste. Other foods include over spiced curries and extremely bitter dark chocolate.

Blaze will seek a husband to marry and give her children to carry on the family line - Blaze doesn't care if they hate each other so long as he performs his "royal duties". She will have a consort for love, though they will never be wed, nor will their children inherit.

Rouge may take her body image dead seriously, but she's practical. She will eat things that would make a goat sick if she has to - and she has. At one point, she ate a leather belt to survive.

When it comes to alcohol, Surge is a total lightweight. She can't handle a shot of raspberry schnapps let alone four glasses of wine.

Jewel is a true carnivore. If it's meat, she'll eat it. She will eat vegetables as a side to the meat, but flat out hates salads.

Rouge likes to take charge of relationships - she very much likes to be in control of everything.

I've been wishing about you

Sam temporarily covers the bar on his day off while Alice sings Karaoke Read now on ao3!

WHITE GUMMY BEAR SHOT

A shot with raspberry vodka, pineapple schnapps, sour mix, sprite, and pineapple juice.

——————————————————

"Hey, Sam?" Sam glanced up from his computer, seeing Alice stood in the doorway of the back room in the pub. It was located next to the stairs that led up to the flat they shared above the pub.

"I know it's your night off and all, but could you cover the bar for a bit? I wanna see if I can get a few songs in before we close down Karaoke."

He nodded, closing his laptop. The spreadsheet could wait until later. "Sure. How many songs are you planning?"

"Maybe two or three," she shrugged. "You're sure you're good?"

He nodded, getting up from his spot on the small sofa. "Yeah, just give me a minute to get changed."

It probably wasn't work appropriate to tend the bar in plaid sweatpants and an oversized Tiberius shirt that had been left after the first day. He quickly ran upstairs, throwing on a black t-shirt and a pair of jeans before heading back down to the pub.

By the time he had gotten back, Alice was already by the stage, scanning the song list for their Kareoke setup. He could spot a few of the members of Tiberius around, too. He could see Colin talking to Alec, the band's lead singer, and Archie, the drummer (and youngest member of Tiberius). They had the night off from performing, but they still seemed to stick around The Tomcat.

Tommy leaped up onto the bar counter, sitting and staring at him.

Sam smiled, reaching out and stroking the cat's head. Tommy leaned his face against his hand, purring gently.

After a moment, he slipped behind the bar, washing his hands before getting started with anything. There wasn't too much going on; it was 10 PM on a Wednesday. Their usual uni crowd showed up closer to the weekend or whenever there was a special event (Like Tiberius playing), so it was just a few of their older regulars, plus some that Sam didn't recognize off the top of his head.

"Hey Sam!" he glanced over, hearing the unfamiliar voice. It was Alec, coming over to the bar with Colin and Archie. He'd heard Alec singing, but never actively heard him talk before. "Could we get three shots? Your pick."

"Two shots," Archie corrected. "Can I just get a draught beer?"

He nodded. "Any allergies or preferences?"

"I'm allergic to cranberries." Alec mentioned.

"I'll keep that in mind. You guys want to open a tab?"

After briefly discussing, the three of them agreed. Sam got Archie his draught beer—IPA was what they had on tap at the moment, before starting on the shot.

He started with pouring raspberry vodka and pineapple schnapps into the shaker, topping it off with a bit of sour mix, sprite, and pineapple juice to boost the flavor. He'd often make the mistake of not adding enough pineapple schapps, and the shot tasted more like raspberry than it was supposed to, so part of him hoped that he was able to even it out with the pineapple juice.

After a minute or two of shaking the mixer, he pulled out two shotglasses and poured the drink into them.

Sam set the two shots down on the bar counter. "White Gummy Bear shots."

"Thanks, mate." Colin gave him a slight grin before he and Alec both downed their shots, while Archie sipped his beer beside them.

Sam heard the music start up and glanced at the stage, seeing Alice with the microphone in hand, grinning like an idiot.

"This is gonna be good." Colin snorted lightly, and he was right.

The first song she ended up singing was Eye of the Tiger, a song she knew every word to but couldn't pitch right to save a life. It was a well-known inside joke to say that Alice was tone deaf (she wasn't; she just sang bad to be funny), but it seemed to be more obvious with this song than others she's sang in the past.

Alec had ended up excusing himself to the bathroom halfway through, leaving Archie and Colin at the bar.

Sam glanced into the shaker, and noticed that there was still some of the mix left in it. He took Colin's empty glass and poured the rest in, only filling the shotglass about halfway. He put it back down in front of Colin "On the house."

Colin looked away from the stage and at Sam, then at the half-filled shot in front of him. "Oh. Thanks, Sam." his stormy blue eyes lingered on him before looking back at the stage and Alice.

Why must he have such nice eyes?

It didn't really help Sam in the long-term. Colin lived in Edinburg, over four hours away. He was also in a band and probably travelled often. He also might already have a boyfriend back home. Sam wouldn't know, and it wasn't any of his business, either.

Overall? A terrible idea.

But part of him still stopped to think on what if.

[untrue-furi-dialogue]

The Flame: The Beat?! You let that naive brat be the last stand?!

The Voice: Oh please, she insisted she could handle it.

The Flame: She couldn't handle a shot of raspberry schnapps, much less an alien hellbent on ending your entire species!
