With the Night King and his army destroyed, it's time to turn our attentions back to King's Landing and focus on our girl Cersei Lannister, Queen of the Seven Kingdoms. "When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die," said Cersei back in season 1 and here we are almost at the end of our story, and she is sitting her beautifully couture-d self on the Iron Throne. Cersei's revenge list too long to recount, but let's just remember Cersei watching from her tower as the Great Sept of Baelor explodes with wildfire, taking out most of her enemies. She smiles. She takes a sip of that wine. Delicious. Hold my wine, Night King, now that is cold.

This week we honor the Queen with something sweeter and more delicious than you'd expect - a Red Wine Sorbet sweetened with raspberries. Because for Cersei Lannister, Queen of the Seven Kingdoms, revenge is very sweet, ice cold, and tastes like wine.

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.

"Lemon cakes are my favorite."
Season 3, Episode 2: Dark Wings, Dark Words 
Season 4, Episode 5: First of His Name

Oh Sansa, you sweet summer child. Lemon cakes are just one of many exotic things Sansa falls in love with during her time in the south, and definitely the only thing from King's Landing that was actually sweet. Google 'Sansa lemon cakes' and a bazillion different recipes pop up. Cupcakes, tea cakes, cocktails, topped with candied lemon, topped with icing, topped with curd - it's probably the most popular recipe idea for Game of Thrones. There is even an 'official' Sansa's Lemon Cakes recipe, commissioned by HBO. Friends, this is not that recipe.

"I'm the three-eyed raven now."
Season 7, Episode 7: The Dragon and The Wolf

Since that fall out of the tower back in episode 1, little Bran Stark has been on a journey up north, down a cave, in the skies, to the past and quite possibly to the future as well.  That's a lot weirdness even for Westeros, but our Bran is handling it in stride. Mostly. He may be a bit freaky now, but we know that somewhere deep beneath the toasted nuttiness is the sweet young Bran we remember from the very beginning.
