“Peace is not for this world…” #saki #whenwilliamcame

I've written about the Edwardian author Saki a number of times on the Ramblings; remembered now mostly for his satires, I've read his adventures of Reginald, his "Chronicles of Clovis" and other shorter works reissues by Renard Press, amongst others. He's a clever and witty author who always makes me laugh, but he had a tragically shortened life and also another side to his writing.

#Ukraine 🇺🇦 aerial attacks on military #Saki and #Kacha airports in #Russia 🇷🇺 occupied #Crimea

🇷🇺 drone hits on residential building in #Zaporizhzhia, 10 civilians wounded

🇷🇺 channels reported their forces "entered" #Pokrovsk only to next day clarify it was fake

🇺🇸 intelligence believes 🇷🇺 #Putin has significantly reduced his military goals in 🇺🇦

Reading, or in many cases, re-reading the works of #Saki (H.H.Munroe) via @gutenberg_org, starting with _When_William_Came_ which I somehow never read. I remember in high school, devouring my parents' copy of the complete (?) short stories of Saki.

"A footman came round the corner with the trained silence that tactfully contrives to make itself felt."

@RickiTarr

what's something you've learned that's made your life easier in the kitchen?

Deglazing the pan as a proactive strategy to keep from burning while cooking. For cooking meat, fish, even cauliflower fried rice. These tend to dry up the fat or oil at higher heat settings, so I add cooking saki and leftover wine, or water that's near boiling near the end. If I have marinade, I use that early in the cooking process. I have a set of silicone sauce brushes. I add a few tablespoons of liquid, deglazing as I go. After decanting the food, I'll return the pan to the fire and deglaze in earnest, and pour it as sauce. The sizzling sound makes cooking more fun.

Number two in an occasional series on antiques.
I'm told that these tiny, (AA battery shown for scale), Japanese saki bowls are known as guinomi and the shape is sobachoko.
Ceramic, glazed interior, exterior modelled (or moulded) as lotus plant, its stem or root forming the foot rim.
I'd like to know an accurate date and the name of the maker; I believe one of the two marks indicates Tokyo and they date from 19th century. Please correct any errors!

PS: to get an idea of Saki’s range, read “The Lumber Room”, & follow it with “Sredni Vashtar”. Both stories feature small boys, domineering aunts, & revenge; one is very funny, & the other – isn’t. “The Lumber Room” is in BEASTS & SUPER-BEASTS, & “Sredni Vashtar” is in THE CHRONICLES OF CLOVIS ☝️
