For instance, one particular Pharaoh had a very popular cooking show held in his kitchen. It was titled, 'Ramses' Kitchen Nightmares'. A group of invited Egyptian guests would be entertained in his kitchen as Ramses awed them with his culinary prowess. His speciality was a wonderful concoction with an exceptionally spicy bean as the main ingredient. They would find, much to their delight, after consuming said meal; that they could all toot in common. Ah, ancient Egyptian food...just like mummy used to make.klahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3651058317830668643.post-1023476616495723332012-04-12T18:12:12.923-04:002012-04-12T18:12:12.923-04:00There is the language of magic.There is the language of magic.PT Dillowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09394481476862013009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3651058317830668643.post-16247527011761970512012-04-12T18:04:24.161-04:002012-04-12T18:04:24.161-04:00So much detail.

Interesting that this unifier of upper and lower Egypt is not wearing the double crown that is the symbol of this unification. I guess that came later. It will be fascinating to see how you connect Egyptian history into your story.stephen Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659054447637207734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3651058317830668643.post-46441842687680379272012-04-12T15:36:39.218-04:002012-04-12T15:36:39.218-04:00I'm going to go around now like Yogurt in Spac...I'm going to go around now like Yogurt in Spaceballs: Merchandising!

HA! I made a joke about how stupid I am.<br /><br />I was skeptical that you could keep this up for a whole A-to-Z thing, but the way you're fleshing out this world is very impressive. If I was a publisher, I'd snap up the rights to this book and then slip something into the fine print about how sequels and ancillary properties belong to me and not you.<br /><br />About which: maybe go read that contract again.<br /><br />Please tell me that Karlak II becomes a villain.Brianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01616494058636881575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3651058317830668643.post-40452885811921676352012-04-12T15:00:35.784-04:002012-04-12T15:00:35.784-04:00I like the Egyptian connection.

I really enjoyed the first two mummy movies and having this Egyptian connection will most likely give that same era feel that I got from the first two mummy movies.
