  Warning: Spoilers everywhere! Season 2 episode 7: A Man Without Honor Jon and Ygritte's meet-cute. You know nothing, Jon Snow. Season 3, episode 6: The Climb Because I'll cut your pretty cock right off and wear it round me neck. Season 4, episode 9: The Watchers On The Wall We never should have left that cave. Before Jon Snow danced with dragon fire, there was Ygritte - a red haired, fiery tempered warrior woman, a killer shot with a bow and arrow, an outdoorsy girl with a love of ice wall climbing and natural hot springs, a true Wildling of the North, our favorite Game of Thrones spice girl. The moment Jon and Ygritte meet, sparks begin to fly - apparently on and off screen (congratulations to recently married Kit Harrington and Rose Leslie.) She's a perfect first love for our Jon Snow - she's independent, she's smart, and while we wouldn't say she has a heart of gold, at least she didn't kill him, which is good enough. Her words "You know nothing, Jon Snow" are pretty spot on even, especially, at the end of season 7. We miss you, Ygritte - you were a great first girlfriend, and deserved way better than death by Olly (but so did Jon Snow. Spoiler, sorry.)
So this week, we shoot a flaming arrow into the air for Ygritte, a woman of the Free Folk, North of the Wall and Jon Snow's first love with our sweet and spicy recipe for Extra Extra Gingery Muffins.
