Today Tasia and Beulah came over for the last three epidoes of the HBO series Game of Thrones. I enjoyed it as ever, especially the very ending, with Danaerys and her dragons.

I noticed something I hadn't thought about before: just before he is beheaded, Ned Stark makes a speech about his treason and his guilt and his attempt to kill King Joffrey and take the throne for himself - all totally untrue, of course, and done for his daughter's sakes. And in that speech he adduces Baylor the Blessed, which anyone who knew him well would know was a sign of deception because Ned doesn't worship Baylor, he follows the Old Religion of the Godswood.

So cool.

And I love the scene between Catelyn Stark and Jaime Lannister.

Love all Tyrion's scenes with Shagga sun of Dolf. Tyrion just gets better and better.

Must get back to reading A Dance With Dragons.

I found a paleo recipe that looked really good: lamb meatballs made with fresh oregano, in a tomato sauce. Sadly, they didn't have any minced lamb at the Metro today, and I didn't have the time nor the desire to go elsewhere, so I got organic bison instead. It cost more than beef, but no more than the lamb would have been. I served the meatballs with cauliflower and a mixture of plain rice and wild rice. Beulah brought some really delicious pumpkin tarts. Tasia brought red wine. A lovely time was had by all. We sat for a while after supper, talking about books. Tasia recommended the Victor Carl series by William Lashner.

So many books, so little time, and mountain of them in my 'currently reading' pile by my bed.
