Just a little reminder of:

The Shire Kitchen Recipe Fic Challenge

http://community.livejournal.com/shire_kitchen/33464.html

The stories will be posted on April 16th. I hope that we'll get lots of them. And they don't have to be hobbity--Men, Elves and Dwarves all have to eat too!!

What's the submission deadline?

Also, are modern ingredients like Cool Whip and gelatin acceptable in the recipe if given at the end and as an elvish thing? Just thinking of a backup in case I don't get around to making that raspberry cobbler. . . .

Desperately,

The deadline is anytime before Monday the 16th (though if you are a tad late, we won't smack your hand--we want the stories, after all *grin*). We've made posts to be mod-approved, so you can post at anytime beforehand, and we can keep them under wraps until the day.

As to ingredients, don't worry if they are a little modern. If I use something modern in a recipe, I usually accompany it by a footnote saying that of course, hobbits would have used something else, but that this is an acceptable modern substitute. Or, if you want to be whimsical, and say the ingredient is Elvish or Gondorian, that's fine too, LOL!
