I’m thinking gingerbread men with green icing. Either that, or another variety of long pig. Or maybe something with potatoes soaked in beer. (Yeah, _that_ sounds tasty. :dubious: ) ---

> [@Sunspace](#): > > In Germany, mitzekatze is a multilayered pastry formed in the shape of a cat. Yeah I know about that (I grew up living near Munich for junior high and high school and in Berlin as a youngster) but didn’t think many others would, and wanted to avoid the obvious. Besides Cat Noodles probably describes me better than yummy flaky pastries. 😉 ---

First, cacao beans are taken from trees in the darkest heart of the Amazon. There, they are flown directly to Africa, and carried on the backs of the locals there into the darkest heart of the African jungle, where they get lost. Once they are found, they are flown to a cacao processing plant in Geneva, where they are made into three different varieties of chocolate, each distinguished by its own mixture of seasonings (with emphasis on sea salt and jalapeno powder). From there, they are each mixed into their own type of decadently fluffy chocolate mousse and swirled together in a large martini glass, served with a single cherry in the center. That, ladies and gentlemen, is the Spatial Rift 47. ---
