'Tis time to sow the barley night or day"

#FolkloreThursday No self respecting mother in Liverpool will not have & serve her own version of ‘Scouse,’ without first warning her kids “this’ll put hairs on your chest!” Legend says the stew originates from the Norwegian sailors who arrived in the port in the 18th century.

Loretta would look so perfect in that getup though XD

What’s Mjollnir’s one flaw?
