Heroes' Feast: The Official D&D Cookbook
Hardcover – October 27, 2020
by Kyle Newman, Jon Peterson, and Michael Witwer; recipes by Adam Ried

This is an excellent example of a fantasy cookbook, in this case based on the fantasy roleplaying game Dungeons & Dragons across its various iterations and settings. It features a lot of big, full-color photos of food with fantasy-style presentation along with some picturesque fantasy illustrations. It reminds me very much of an earlier favorite, The Elder Scrolls: The Official Cookbook.

DIY Homemade Coconut Sunscreen with Shea Butter

1/2 oz. beeswax pastilles
1/4 c. shea butter
1/4 c. coconut oil
2 tbsp Zinc Oxide Powder

Combine the shea butter and coconut oil in a double boiler and melt down before adding the beeswax. Remove from heat and pour into another bowl. Blend with a hand blender on medium and slowly add in the 2 tbsp zinc powder. Blend until well combined and there are no clumps. Let cool to room temperature and you’ve got sunscreen. Store in a jar in a cool, dark cupboard for up to 1 month.

This homemade sunscreen is a bit different from the store bought kind. It needs to be rubbed in with some vigor to avoid white streaks.
