I am at a restaurant called Torchy's Tacos in Dallas TX. I haven't been here before but they have a Hogfather taco. I had to buy one. 🙂 And it was really good! I wonder if the owner is a Pratchett fan or if it is a coincidence? #torchys #discworld #hogfather #pratchett

Image from the 2006 BBC Adaptation of Terry Pratchett's Hogfather. Death, having taken the role of Hogfather upon himself due to the fat man's disappearance, sets out to deliver presents to the good children of Discworld with his assistant Albert.
Twas the night before Hogswatch, when all through the house, not a creature was stirring, but a skeletal mouse. We take a visit to the miraculous universe of Discworld with Hogfather, and learn the true meaning of holidays, and how the little oddities of life elevate it.

Immer wenn ich Michelle Dockery in irgendeiner Rolle sehe, warte ich darauf, dass Sie einen Schürhaken in die Hand nimmt und der Mäusetod auftaucht. #Hogfather

TIL that there is a special cake for Epiphany called the King's¹ cake, and it's *this* cake that has the bean in it.
¹not actually sure how many Kings, so it might be the Kings' cake.

HUMAN BEINGS MAKE LIFE SO INTERESTING. DO YOU KNOW, THAT IN A UNIVERSE SO FULL OF WONDERS, THEY HAVE MANAGED TO INVENT BOREDOM.

Mr. Crumley knew how it was supposed to go. It was supposed to go like this: the child was always struck dumb and the attendant mother would lean forward and catch the Hogfather’s eye and say very pointedly, in that voice adults use when they’re conspiring against children: “You want a Baby Tinkler Doll, don’t you, Doreen? And the Just Like Mummy Cookery Set you’ve got in the window. And the Cut-Out Kitchen Range Book. And what do you say?” And the stunned child would murmur “’nk you” and get given a balloon or an orange. This time, though, it didn’t work like that.

“Arrest the Hogfather, style of thing?” “Yes!” “On Hogswatchnight?” “Yes!” “In your shop?” “Yes!” “In front of all those kiddies?” “Y—” Mr. Crumley hesitated. To his horror, he realized that Corporal Nobbs, against all expectation, had a point. “You think that will look bad?” he said. “Hard to see how it could look good, sir.”

WHY ARE YOUR HANDS ON BITS OF STRING, CHILD? The child looked down the length of its arms to the dangling mittens affixed to its sleeves. It held them up for inspection. “Glubs,” it said. I SEE. VERY PRACTICAL. “Are you weal?” said the bobble hat. WHAT DO YOU THINK? The bobble hat sniggered. “I saw your piggy do a wee!” it said, and implicit in the tone was the suggestion that this was unlikely to be dethroned as the most enthralling thing the bobble hat had ever seen. OH. ER…GOOD. “It had a gwate big—” WHAT DO YOU WANT FOR HOGSWATCH? said the Hogfather hurriedly.

close up image of sculpted ornament amongst pine boughs and rainbow christmas lights. it is the head of Death from Discworld, a skeleton with glowing blue eyes in a rugged Santa hood and obviously fake beard, with hooks attaching it to his cheekbones. He faces out to the right at a 3/4 angle.
2 sculpted ornaments hanging next to each other in a tree. On the right is Death, and on the left is a full-body Death of Rats.
A shot of Death facing straight, held dangling in front of a hand. It is small, about 2 inches at its longest point.
The hand holding Death, this time facing 3/4s left, so the stitching on his hood is visible.
happy Hogswatch everyone, my spouse and i made ornaments

REALLY? AS IF IT WAS SOME KIND OF PINK PILL? NO. HUMANS NEED FANTASY TO BE HUMAN. TO BE THE PLACE WHERE THE FALLING ANGEL MEETS THE RISING APE. “Tooth fairies? Hogfathers? Little—” YES. AS PRACTICE. YOU HAVE TO START OUT LEARNING TO BELIEVE THE LITTLE LIES. “So we can believe the big ones?” YES. JUSTICE. MERCY. DUTY. THAT SORT OF THING. “They’re not the same at all!” YOU THINK SO? THEN TAKE THE UNIVERSE AND GRIND IT DOWN TO THE FINEST POWDER AND SIEVE IT THROUGH THE FINEST SIEVE AND THEN SHOW ME ONE ATOM OF JUSTICE, ONE MOLECULE OF MERCY. AND YET—Death waved a hand. AND YET YOU ACT AS IF THERE IS SOME IDEAL ORDER IN THE WORLD, AS IF THERE IS SOME…SOME RIGHTNESS IN THE UNIVERSE BY WHICH IT MAY BE JUDGED. “Yes, but people have got to believe that, or what’s the point—” MY POINT EXACTLY.

“What did he do it all for?” said Susan. “I mean, why? Money? Power?”
SOME PEOPLE WILL DO ANYTHING FOR THE SHEER FASCINATION OF DOING IT, said Death. OR FOR FAME. OR BECAUSE THEY SHOULDN’T.

A glacial landscape with a broken ice bridge in the foreground. On one side, a severely dressed lady in black and white stands next to a bleeding bearded Father-Christmas type in red cloak and white tunic. Hams and sausages spring up in his footsteps; there is a huge pig and a giant red sack of gifts behind him. On the other side, a trio of grey nonentities in chain-bound robes turn away from the edge, only to be confronted by the grim figure of DEATH himself, eyes and scythe glowing blue, his robe changing from red to black. Made with tabletop miniatures, a scene from Pratchett's HOGFATHER.
HAPPY HOGSWATCH! HAVE YOU BEEN NAUGHTY? OR NICE?
HO. HO. HO.

“Well, that about wraps it up for this dress,” said Susan. “I’d just like to ask, just out of academic interest…you were sure I was going to survive, were you?” I WAS QUITE CONFIDENT. “Oh, good.”
