Where is Little Miss Muffet’s cottage cheese (curds and whey)?
I love Alice in Wonderland’s :D So pretty!
And it looks delicious.
Awful lighting and composition… but a fantastic idea!
I agree. So shadowy! It works for Oliver Twist, not so much the others.
I also agree… And BETTER RESEARCH! Sweet n’ Low didn’t exist when Catcher In The Rye was written.
but at least she used a paper straw
You call it awful lighting, I call it realistic lighting. People in novels didn’t carry light sets and reflectors about with them while they ate these meals. Also, I’ve always been a fan of shadows. The only ones that seem to interfere with the image itself is the last meal (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) since they make it look too busy.
The picture from Moby Dick makes me ever so hungry. Now *that* is what I call a meal.
She should have done Game of Throne.
Y No feast from The Hobbit?!!
