SCHOLAR AND SCRIBE INTRO by WHYWHY
Tell my story...... Again?
Well, I have been on HIVE since early 2021, but it was a bit overwhelming, I did not really understand the concept as I was thinking it´s just another blogging site.
I was wrong and it took me a year to figure that out, but now I am back to let you I can really....write I guess?
You might have seen me around the SCHOLAR AND SCRIBE community. Over the last weeks, I have been publishing a nice little dark celestial tale there.

Lets Do Some Fiction and have a cookie
So where July´s Dreemport challenge was pulling me out of my comfort zone, this August challenge might fit me a bit better.
The only thing I now need to do is find the time to write.
Now some chocolate-loving person came up with the idea to introduce ourselves through our favorite dessert. This is a challenge as I have not been a fan of desserts since I grew up.
My favorite dessert after a really good meal would therefore be a cup of Columbian Coffee, grind those beans and let the steem press the taste into that cup. Serve it with a little milk and sugar and a home made ANZAC biscuit.
Now why those ANZAC biscuits, because it was the best cookie I ever had. They are not too hard to make and well they are said to last sometime.
I had never heard of them btw, until I hosted an Australian couple that made those great chewie oatmeal cookies with raisins. Raisins might have not been in the original recipe, but any cookie tastes better with raisins.
Now of course they told me the story behind the cookie. How wives and girlfriends would bake them for their men at the Western Front, because they didn´t spoil easily and it would give them a taste of home in the war.
Other research shows these cookies might have been a little too luxurious for your common soldier back in those days. It says that ANZAC biscuits were mainly consumed at galas, parades, and other public events at home, to raise funds for the war effort.
But that is a cookie with a history and I loved it, both the cookie and the tale.
Now bring on the fiction part and see how I do in this month's challenge because I have enough reality to last me a lifetime.

Awesome, I love your vibes on this challenge, it's giving me more morale to want to challenge myself more than I'm already challenging myself, lol.
Columbia coffee and ANZAC biscuits are two new things to me but from your tale, I'll say it must really taste nice, I'm looking forward to try it out, hehehe.
All the best for the challenge Bitcoin baby, I'm rooting for you 🤩.
Happy new month ❤️.
There are plenty of recipes out there and they are quite easy to make, you should give it a try with any coffee! Thanks for your sweet comment!

Great intro BB! You can become a professional "Introduction" copywriter! !LOL
Oh my! I just remembered you're one of the few serial fiction writers I know... You're good really! 😅 I can't wait to start reading the one you've got to share for the challenge.
That new kind of cookie you're showing me is giving me all the tempting looks, how do I find it here in my place and have a bit? 😕 I love it already.
It's so obvious you've got this challenge, I can only wish you the very best fun through it 💕
It´s not so hard to make them yourself https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/anzac-biscuits-recipe
Oh thanks, I'll check it out 😋
Welcome back to Scholar and Scribe @whywhy ! Glad to have you participating in this contest with us! 😁
Anzac biscuits though? I swear you Australians just come up with the most bizarre shit. 🤣 I know will forever wonder what does actually taste like since I doubt I'm gonna ever travel to Australia. Never say never, eh?
Curious to see how you tackle this challenge. Hope it's more darkish content. But don't let me wedge you in any particular direction. I'm sure you'll do great either way. 🙂
Good luck and glad to have you with us this August! 🍻
Thank and lets see what the challenge brings but I vae been writing a lot of vanilla posts lately so hope we can poor in some darkish chocolate, btw I am not Australian that is why I never heard of them till I was hosting a couple of Australians at my place and they baked those cookies and told the story behind them
Wow
Are those biscuits only available in your place? Where are you based? Just curious. They look like hobnobs.
Looking forward to your creations
Came in through Dreemport
Nope but the best ones are homemade anyway and not that hard to make, just look up a recipe for ANZAC biscuits and keep in mind that you need top add raisins

That cookies are sounding quite a delicious dessert and their use at the borders by soldiers would make them remember their loved ones.
It is good to hear that you are back to hive with a boom. Let's spread creativity together. Hehe
