[Panel 1]
[Nils]
I say, Elizabeth, has Bell
given you one of her
new invention to try?
[Elizabeth]
A lamb-and-apple
pasty? Yes.
I didn't have the heart to tell her
they're not a new invention at all.
[Panel 2]
[Elizabeth]
Or at least, not unless
you're an early Mediaevalist,
and regard Henry the Eighth
as a bit new-fangled.
[Nils]
Oh?
[Elizabeth]
The mixture is mentioned then. But
it was called "squab pie". Nowadays
it's being called "lample".
[Panel 3]
[Nils]
Meanwhile I came across something I
hope she'll cook some time.
Not for hog
roasts or the
pub. Just for us.
[Elizabeth]
Do tell?
[Panel 4]
[Nils]
It's in a fantasy book Jaakko
insisted I had to read.
[Nils]
Its proper name
is Quick After-
Battle Triple
Chocolate Cake.
[Nils]
But I plan to
call it "Massacre
By Chocolate".
[Elizabeth]
I am definitely interested.
