Hello Gleeks of my f-list, it's that time of the year where I ask for Puck/Kurt fic recs again. Do you have any for me? Gimme gimme pleaaaaase!

As for the Sherlockians of my f-list, I wanted to ask: has anyone read this book:



And is it any good? I started reading the beginning at the bookshop and saw that Watson was married (okay) and had at least a child with Mary Morstan (wait, what?) which put me off a bit and made me replace it on the bookshelf. But the thing is, I usually like Anthony Horowitz's books and since I'll be travelling soon, I need something to read on the plane; I'm just kind of reluctant to read something that would kill any hope of slash between Holmes and Watson (don't judge me, I'm a hopeless fangirl)...

tl;dr I need a fellow fangirl/boy's opinion on this plz.

We finished watching the last episodes of the second season of Glee yesterday, merely out of obstination and in order to get some sense of closure -- we really didn't want to. It's safe to say now that I won't be watching season 3.
That second season was very bad. Some good ideas here and there, sometimes one good episode that cruelly gave us hope, but overall, poor writing, poor song choice and interpretations, and guys, sorry to tell you, but ALL your "original songs" SUCKED big time. The New York one made us howl with second-hand embarrassment. And just as we thought we couldn't be more unimpressed, bam, last episode, complete anti-climax that left us wondering what the hell it was we saw in that show in the first place, whether there ever *was* something charming, fresh, new that made us fall in love with it or if it was just wishful thinking and total delusion on our part.
The only thing good about that last episode was Usher's Yeah! sung by unknown female choir that looked a lot like the Jane Addams girls, but I guess they had to cut the performance in half because they didn't want the viewers to realize how inferior New Directions' performance would be compared to it (too late, ha!).
I also enjoyed watching lovely (and gay as ever) Jonathan Groff's comeback, "Rolling in the deep" was also one of the good songs that I'll remember from those horrible last episodes.

Fortunately after that, Kiri had the good idea to show us NPH's performance at the Tony Awards and we gained back some faith in humanity and show tunes. This has probably been reblogged over and over all around the Internetz, but I don't care, here is my own reblog of that fabulous awesome piece of epicness:

( NPH FTW )

Just to keep you posted, part 2 (out of 3) of Chapter Three of The Art of Love and Cooking has just been sent to beta. Another 4000 words or so.



Yay, finish line. I'm EXHAUSTED. I've been writing all week just to get that part done; I'll try to write part 3 as soon as I can, but for now, I hope you won't mind if I take a little break. X____X Writing in English for a long period of time hurts my brain; I'd love to update quicker, believe me, but this is truly the best I can do. I just checked: about 30 000 words already written for that fic, if I include the part I've just finished. This is insane.
And now I need to get RL work done, which also consist in writing, but in French, hurray, so hopefully my brain won't turn into jelly and start trickling down my ears. Gaaaah. Kill me already.

My betas. I love them: drgaellon and guilshad 

Rating: This chapter will be NC-17! Holla~! Only this part is still R-ish

Fandom/Pairing: Glee, Puck/Kurt

Warnings/Spoilers: Food porn, and then some actual porn after that. No spoilers because it's an AU in which glee club didn't happen.

Comments: PLEASE DON'T KILL ME. This is part 1, part 2 and 3 will come later, 'kay? Again, this chapter is dedicated to my betas; they're really great and I can't thank them enough for the work they put in this. You rock, both of you. <3
In each part I try to put as much food and music (since this is still a Glee fic, yo) as I can, I feel there is a little less food and more music in this one. At the end of this post you will find a Youtube mix (just because it was simpler, never mind the videos that go with the songs, most of them are rubbish) with all the songs mentioned in here.

What do you mean, "wishful thinking"? It totally happened, okay? YOU SEE, YOU JUST DON'T OBSERVE!
(still, it's kind of flattering, especially when no other pairing is featured. Puckurt rulez è0é9)

Also, France is fucked, 4chan is on to us:

AND DYLAN MORAN WILL TOUR ENGLAND FOR A NEW SHOW THIS YEAR!!!! IT'S CALLED "YEAH YEAH"! MUST GO SEE!!!!! <°0°> AAAARRRRHHHH *major flailing*

(WTF is this post? What a mess!)

Here below is the (much overdue) bonus post to Chapter 2 of The Art of Love and Cooking (it's a PuckxKurt WiP that I'm writing where Puck is a chef. Yeah.). First of all, I'M SO SORRY GUYS. I'm unforgivable, I shouldn't have let so much time go between updates, it's just not done; but the good news is, I'm working on (the true nightmare that is) Chapter 3 as we speak, since I'm almost done with Rhapsody's script (at long last!). There will be about six chapters all in all for this fic I think, so please bear with me and my excruciatingly slow writing, I swear I'll finish it, I just don't know exactly when. Thank you to the people who have recently discovered and read the fic and left the sweetest comments, and thanks also to the regular readers, you all give me courage to wrestle my crappy English and get down to writing at last.

Careful, the post below might be a teeny bit image-heavy.

( Photos, recipes and music )

Finally saw The Substitute, and it was SWEEEEEEET!

( A few remarks in caps lock because I just can't help myself )

That is all. Now I need to go back to the beach and work on my tan. Nyaha.

Woo-hoo!! Finally watched it, and... incredible start of season! WHAT WAS WITH ALL THE GHEINESS?? We almost choked from it! (in a good way, of course) We squealed so loud throughout the episode we made the neighbours crazy!
