FairytalesFood
@FairytalesFood@mstdn.socialA storytelling podcast featuring stories & folklore with connected recipes & food history. Honouring the stories despite how tenuous the link to the recipe becomes.
I’m Rachel: a part-time storyteller, fascinated & sometimes alarmed by vintage cookbooks. I enjoy traveling the world & through time via the medium of food & stories. I love history, folklore, stories, cheese, cocktails & cats (not necessarily in that order). I’m on a never-ending mission to find the magic in the spaces between.
mythologymonday
@mythologymonday@thefolklore.cafeStories from world mythology, every Monday. Founded 2019 by Elisabeth M
@independentpen, Aimee Maroux @AimeeMaroux and @ClassicalMyths.
JOIN US! Every Monday, we announce a theme & pin it here. You toot a story from world mythology and tag it #MythologyMonday (tag us too to make sure we see it). We boost it!
Your toot can be on- or off-theme, but do tell the gist of the story in the body of your toot (we don't boost toots that contain only teasers or promos).

And while I enjoy DND, it's not not my favorite TTRPG. I'm currently mostly using #FATEAccellerated and #PbtA
I am trying to keep this account about gaming and all things worldbuilding (as if that narrows it down), but social issues will creep in...
