little ghost

"Known as "Petit Fantome" (Little Ghost), this agate belonged to the philosopher, writer, and Surrealist Roger Caillois, who made a collection of such images, the spontaneous work of Natura Pictrix."

I'm slowly working my way through Phantasmagoria, by Marina Warner which is where this image of Petit Fantome is taken from.

i hate you alice b toklas

Here's the recipe for hashish fudge direct from the Alice B Toklas cookbook.

Take 1 teaspoon black peppercorns, 1 whole nutmeg, 4 average sticks of cinnamon, 1 teaspoon coriander. These should all be pulverized in a mortar. About a handful each of stone dates, dried figs, shelled almonds and peanuts: chop these and mix them together. A bunch of canibus sativa can be pulverized. This along with the spices should be dusted over the mixed fruit and nuts, kneaded together. About a cup of sugar dissolved in a big pat of butter. Rolled into a cake and cut into pieces or made into balls about the size of a walnut, it should be eaten with care. Two pieces are quite sufficient. Obtaining the canibus may present certain difficulties.... It should be picked and dried as soon as it has gone to seed and while the plant is still green.


I watched I Love You Alice B. Toklas last summer and regretted it immediately. I hate Peter Sellers. I hate hippies. I hated this movie. This scene is all you really need to watch anyway.
