Fatal Rivalry: Part Three of The Last Great Saxon Earls
Description
<p>In 1066, the rivalry between two brothers brought England to its knees. When Duke William of Normandy landed at Pevensey on September 28, 1066, no one was there to resist him. King Harold Godwineson was in the north, fighting his brother Tostig and a fierce Viking invasion. How could this have happened? Why would Tostig turn traitor to wreak revenge on his brother?<br />The Sons of Godwine were not always enemies. It took a massive Northumbrian uprising to tear them apart, making Tostig an exile and Harold his sworn enemy. And when 1066 came to an end, all the Godwinesons were dead except one: Wulfnoth, hostage in Normandy. For two generations, Godwine and his sons were a mighty force, but their power faded away as the Anglo-Saxon era came to a close.</p>
Story Behind The Book
Every Fall, my daughter and I head to the local grocery store and buy the biggest, heaviest pumpkin we can dig out of the bin. We bring it home, break it down, which includes boiling as I've never done the roasting method very well, and then proceed to make our pumpkin pie filling.
Due to affordability issues, some parts of the original recipe changed, resulting in a light, not as thick pumpkin pie that people seem to really like. So much so that in recent years, my daughter's friends have been asking how to make it. She dedicated her 18th birthday last year to teaching two of her friends how to make my pumpkin pie.
This year, I decided to share the process with the world!
