BryonySeries Throwback Thursday: Strange Foods

Strange Foods

After Melissa overcomes her initials trepidations about making a pact with a vampire, her biggest fear is not her health or safety, but the unfamiliar foodstuffs she encounters in the Victorian era.

Luckily, selections are lavish, so Melissa can avoid the unusual and stick to items she recognizes. Dealing with vampires is much easier, since she is convinced one has only good intentions at heart, while another is simply annoying, at best. A third leaves her uneasy, but Melissa deals with him as she does the food. She avoids him.

I say, she would have been smarter to sample the beef tongue and taken a deeper look at her fairytale surroundings.

Tired, A Little Overwhelmed, and It's Raining...

Ever have one of those nights where your brain just won't settle down? Well, I've had two, back to back.

Packed day, on call this weekend with one assignment to cover, and pining for time in the nineteenth century. Hoping the pouring rain slows to respectable trickles so I can drag my weary body outside for a brisk walk.

Pardon me while I refill my coffee cup...
