Was Rabelais as good at making marmalade as historians make him out to be?

Of course he was. Us historians do not fuck around when it comes to delicious foods. I have his recipe for elderberry marmalade SOMEWHERE...

The King's Landing wrapped dresses are based on an 11th Century Byzantine design of a court dancer. Clearly the costume designers know their Tom Tierney coloring books very well.

Suu,

I'm told the Goths did not invent corpse paint. Is this true?
