quote by G.K. Chesterton
I'm doing my British Lit final project on J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan . . . it has made me really wish that Neverland was a real place.
quote from Titanic . . . in honor of yesterday
Only two months and twenty-seven days until the Taylor Swift concert!
inspired by the song "To Build a Home" by the Cinematic Orchestra . . . it's beautiful, go listen to it.

Also, here's the recipe I found for the crumpets I made earlier today! I added a little cinnamon/sugar on the tops while cooking them to add a little more flavor. They taste best when toasted.
Crumpets
Ingredients
• 2 1/2 cups Flour, Enriched All-purpose
• 1 1/2 cups Milk
• 1 tsp Salt
• 2 tsp Sugar
• 1 tbsp Active Dry Yeast
• 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
Directions
In a large bowl, stir the sugar or honey into the warm water. Sprinkle the active dry yeast over the top and let it sit until it bubbles, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the remaining ingredients. Cover and let it sit for about half an hour in a warm place.
Grease a griddle or frying pan and the crumpet rings or cookie cutters. Place the rings on the cooking surface and preheat all.
Pour about 3 tablespoons of batter into each 3" ring and cook over medium low heat until set, about 10 minutes. (Avoid cooking them too quickly.) The top should be full of holes when they are ready to turn.
Remove the crumpets from the rings, turn, and brown the other side, if desired, for a minute or so.
Repeat until all the batter is used.
Serve warm with butter and jam or peanut butter.
Makes 16 crumpets
