A new day coming

So Skyrim's going to have cooking in it. This will change everything! This blog will continue, of course, but it'll be less theoretical and more focused on the real world versions of what's going to doubtless be a very interesting collection of recipes. For example, in the E3 demo, there was salmon. That's a new one.

And another thing, there's this "Skyrim Food Truck" they're doing. Well lo and behold, it's coming to MY neck of the woods end of this month. To Boston University, my alma mater, no less. You better BELIEVE I'll be there, taking pictures, and sampling foods of a Skyrim-themed nature.

So tonight I'm making Mutton Stew from my Medieval Cookbook. It does assume existence of chickens and eggs, but both have allegedly been confirmed for Skyrim. so what the heck. Tonight's choice wasn't so much to adhere to Tamriel guidelines, but because my husband was idly flipping through my new cookbooks and said, "Ooooh, can we do mutton stew sometime?" :)
