Yeah, they skipped (so far) all of The Imps intrigue in King's Landing. The interaction with Craster was about 500 pages/half way through the second book.

2 pound cakes, rice krispy treat, and covered it with fondant. It took her about 7 hours. She cut out each scale individually. And it tasted yummy!

It was a big hit, and I'm very proud of her. Maybe Cake Boss is hiring.

Good episode. Huffington Post actually has power rankings for 'Game of Thrones'.

So glad to see season 2! Not much action in the first episode, lots of talking ,but I suppose that's inevitable due to all the storylines it had to pick up. Looking forward to the next one.

I haven't seen it.

I don't want any spoilers.

But.

Is there a female character named ... "darius" or something like that? Long wavy blond hair, dresses in furs?

Yes - Daenerys Stormborn. I love her character.

She and the Imp were my two favorite characters.

Best line from last night

Lord Janos: Are you questioning my honor?

Imp: I'm not questioning your honor Lord Janos; I'm denying
its exsistence!
