Why this story must be read:
As it's my birthday, today I rec my favorite Highlander story. Carciofi did two things. First it solidified my love of Highlander and love of Duncan/Methos. And secondly, it presented a beautiful meal that to this day I'm temped to prepare every time I read this story.
This story starts with an unfamiliar atmosphere, cold and brittle, out of place. Methos, ever the survivor, has been indulging himself in what little of a comfortable life he remembers that remains. Surprises, in many forms, bring fragile peace and the offered comfort of good food and better company.
Unovis has a lovely writing style that without overextending the use of words, portrays Duncan and Methos' current environment and emotional presence with ease. It's the small descriptions that go so far as to show the story rather than telling it.
I wish everyone a lovely read and if you like artichokes, I suggest making this dish. It's fantastic.

The GeoCities site is closing. Carciofi (http://hlfiction.net/viewstory.php?sid=34&warning=Mature%20Content) is on the Highlander Fiction archive. The recipes aren't there, though.
