~Regency Wednesday...continued~ Bon Appétit! (Part 5)

In part 5 of Supersizers Go Regency, we get to see Giles fight a duel, Sue's attempt at the language of the fan, and a bit of Regency gambling...where Giles and Sue enjoy sandwiches. I've embedded the video below and as always, YouTube provides the link to the final video at the end of this one. Enjoy!

~Regency Wednesday...continued~ Bon Appétit! (Part 4)

In another continuation of this week's Regency Wednesday post, I've embedded below part 4 of Supersizers Go Regency. In this part, we get to enjoy the novelty of seeing Giles fashion himself after Beau Brummell, that famous Regency dandy, and we get a peek into the French cuisine that became the rage after Napoleon's defeat.  


Stay tuned for the answer to last week's mystery pic. Happy reading, writing, and guessing!

~Regency Wednesday~ Bon Appétit! (Part 2)

Many of you saw the video I posted last week, the first part of a six-part series called The Supersizers Go... Regency. It's actually just one episode of a BBC series called The Supersizers. (If you live in the UK, I apologize for what is no doubt very old news to you. lol) 

Below I've embedded the second part of Supersizers Go Regency. In this part, they try jugged hare, English rarebit, and sweetbreads. (I will issue a warning here, if you are sensitive to the sight of a cook chopping up a bunny, don't watch this part.) As a special treat, I've included a recipe for English rarebit (a very simple recipe and similar to my husband's favorite snack), immediately below the video. 



English Rarebit (based on what is said in this video):

Cut thick slices of bread, douse with red wine, cover with cheese and grill or broil them until the cheese bubbles and browns.

(Apparently, the treat my hubby enjoys is Welsh Rarebit: same as above but without the wine.)

Instead of waiting until next Wednesday, I'll post Part 3 tomorrow. If you're interested in the cookbook mentioned in the first part of this series, you can download the Google book HERE.

Happy reading, writing, and EATING!!
