[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.
