Ep. 676: Where My Sproing At? | Chapters 50-51 / Volume 3, Chapters 14-15 Book talk begins at 22:17. Frank's letter. Frank has NOT behaved beautifully, but do us a favor - take his letter at face value. Tune in and hear us out as we go over yarn, a vintage chinois, and other updates. --------------------------------------------------------------- • • • • • • • My sock darns—inside • Sock darn—outside • • • • • • • •   Notes: Omg, I found the recipe!!! Here’s the recipe for Crabapple Chili ‘cheese’—like a chutney but fewer bits—and the recipe for Crabapple Chili jelly—which Thing 2 said tastes like better than real honey…which means I think I needed to cook it longer/higher, but 🤷🏻‍♀️ Either way, make the jelly first then save the pulp after straining to make the cheese. I didn’t have access to crabapples so instead I went to our local cidery and asked for the tartest/driest apples they had. She did not steer me wrong.  I added a booster step this time:  I have an apple peeler so I saved peels and cores, put them in a cheesecloth bundle, and cooked those down separately to get all the good pectin-y bits out. I reduced it by half then added that to the strained jelly.  I also made this in an instant pot. I can’t always guarantee I’ll be able to get to the kitchen when a timer goes off, so I used our trusty InstaPot on ‘Manual’ for boiling (takes 1-1/2 to 2 one hour cycles to get a good boil on a vat of Fruit pulp) then I used its “slow cook” for simmering. Worked a dream. I did the cheese in a regular heavy-bottomed saucepan—much less of it to work with.   *CraftLit’s Socials* • Find everything here: https://www.linktr.ee/craftlitchannel • Join the newsletter: http://eepurl.com/2raf9  • Podcast site: http://craftlit.com • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CraftLit/ • Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/craftlit • Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/craftlit/ • TikTok podcast: https://www.tiktok.com/@craftlit • Email: heather@craftlit.com • Previous CraftLit Classics can be found here: https://bit.ly/craftlit-library-2023   *SUPPORT THE SHOW!* • CraftLit App Premium feed bit.ly/libsynpremiumcraftlit (only one tier available) • PATREON:   https://patreon.com/craftlit (all tiers, below) ——Walter Harright -  $5/mo for the same audio as on App ——Jane Eyre - $10/mo for even-month Book Parties ——Mina Harker - $15/mo for odd-month Watch Parties *All tiers and benefits are also available as* —*YouTube Channel Memberships*  —*Ko-Fi* https://ko-fi.com/craftlit  —*NEW* at CraftLit.com — Premium Memberships https://craftlit.com/membership-levels/ *IF you want to join a particular Book or Watch Patry but you don't want to join any of the above membership options*, please use PayPal.me/craftlit or CraftLit @ Venmo and include what you want to attend in the message field.

Ep. 675: Not So Secret History | Chapter 49 / Volume 3, Chapter 13 Book talk begins at 13:23. "If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more." Tell us we're not the ONLY ones squealing over what may be the most romantic sentence in CraftLit history.  We've hit the turning point in the story here. Harriet is in love with Knightley. Knightley certainly seems to be in love with Harriet. And Emma's heartbroken. The tension begins to unwind in this chapter, but not without leaving a few knots for Emma to untangle.. --------------------------------------------------------------- • • • • •   *CraftLit’s Socials* • Find everything here: https://www.linktr.ee/craftlitchannel • Join the newsletter: http://eepurl.com/2raf9  • Podcast site: http://craftlit.com • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CraftLit/ • Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/craftlit • Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/craftlit/ • TikTok podcast: https://www.tiktok.com/@craftlit • Email: heather@craftlit.com • Previous CraftLit Classics can be found here: https://bit.ly/craftlit-library-2023   *SUPPORT THE SHOW!* • CraftLit App Premium feed bit.ly/libsynpremiumcraftlit (only one tier available) • PATREON:   https://patreon.com/craftlit (all tiers, below) ——Walter Harright -  $5/mo for the same audio as on App ——Jane Eyre - $10/mo for even-month Book Parties ——Mina Harker - $15/mo for odd-month Watch Parties *All tiers and benefits are also available as* —*YouTube Channel Memberships*  —*Ko-Fi* https://ko-fi.com/craftlit  —*NEW* at CraftLit.com — Premium Memberships https://craftlit.com/membership-levels/ *IF you want to join a particular Book or Watch Patry but you don't want to join any of the above membership options*, please use PayPal.me/craftlit or CraftLit @ Venmo and include what you want to attend in the message field.

Ep. 669B: Interlude This week, we're hitting the pause button on our usual programming. But don't worry, we've got a special treat for you—an Interlude filled with your wonderful voicemails and email, and some messages from Heather herself. We hope you enjoy this little break with us, and we can't wait to be back with you next week! --------------------------------------------------------------- Per : “'Gypsies' have been stereotypical outcasts in the British imagination for centuries. But this has little to do with real history of Romanies (ethnonym). A good book to read is David Cressy: Gypsies: An English History. Below are several reviews of it. I also found Sara Hemsley’s blog post (also below) but it merely repeats the stereotypes."
