Something I’ve been wanting to do for a while is post blog entries that list all the foods in a particular book, which gives me a nice, concise list of foods to tackle for any given novel. When I read A Dance with Dragons, I highlighted all the dishes (which my husband actually noticed!) on my Kindle version and now I have a quick and easy way to go back and find all the food Dany snarfs down while sitting on her ass in Meereen.
The trouble with that is, it’s not very easy to read. The highlights on my Kindle are all lumped together and is therefore very unorganized. These will be a way for me to reference back in a quick and easy way.
So without further ado, here’s my hit list for the first book in The Hunger Games Trilogy (some of it already done). Some are meals and some are just single items. You’ll be surprised at just how much food there is in this one book!
