1HDC: Winter is Coming Challenge

1HDC-October.png

Dive into the world of designing for a fantasy world. George R. R. Martin’s Game of Thrones series has been turned into an Emmy winning HBO television show. Ned Stark, one of the story’s driving characters warns that, “Winter is coming.”

In the book and TV series, there are epic battles with glorious knights in shining armor and creatures from deep inside the fantasy world. A significant part of their persona is their armory. For this month’s 1-Hour Design Challenge, we invite participants to design a suit of armor or weapon suitable for the world of G.R.R. Martin’s Game of Thrones. Keeping with the context of the book, each weapon or piece of armor must have a theme. For example, Sandor Clegane, known in the book as “The Hound,” has a helm in the shape of a dog (see image above). Check out full details for this month’s 1-Hour Design Challenge here.

Gaufrettes Amusantes

Humorous messages on classic Picard wafers
gaufrettes1.jpg

Gaufrettes Amusantes are traditional waffle wafers with a humorous twist. Written in either standard French or in our preferred Northern France’s Picard dialect—also called Ch’ti by locals—the funny phrases stamped on each cookie reflect the witty, working class community. Idiomatic messages like “Allo Cherie” (hello darling) and “Cha n’vaut pas un pet d’lapin” (it’s not worth a rabbit fart) add a touch of charm to morning tea or dessert.

Comptoir des Flandres uses a recipe dating back to 1894 to make the tasty wafers in vanilla, chocolate, chicory, hazelnut and raspberry varieties. The cookies sell individually (€3) or in boxed assortments (€10) at Comptoir des Flandres, and are available at many French grocery stores. Also available in the U.S. by the case at The Frenchy Bee for $49.
