It's Ricotta Cake, not cheesecake.
This week's Resolution Recipe, which I really had no excuse not to put up since I made it two weeks ago: Ricotta Cake.

Ruddygore last night was good. The Gorey-inspired set looked fabulous, and not just because I'm a lifelong Gorey fan. I'm glad we went to see ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
aimeric and Laurie. As I often remark, Ruddygore is my favorite Gilbert & Sullivan operetta - not least because the baritone gets to be the romantic lead for once. %$^&*$# tenors. The "matter" song is also one of my favorite bits (and it was performed well last night). The only less-than-stellar bit, in my opinion, was the actor playing Dick Dauntless. He couldn't maintain a consistent lower-class sailor accent when speaking, and it completely vanished when he sang. (His singing was quite good, however.) Probably for the best that he didn't attempt Cockney.
Late night, but well worth seeing.
