Dorothy, it's Stan. Didn't you recognize me? Of course I recognized you. That's why I slammed the door in your face.

What do u think Herb’s favorite foods would be? Or just food he really likes
Hey babes, so when I first got this ask I had absolutely no thoughts on the matter whatsoever, but recently I read the transcript of the episode of Ed Gamble and James Acaster's podcast Off Menu in which Stanley Tucci guest stars, and I decided to take the ones I thought gave the biggest Herb vibe about them.
And a bonus, because I thought this parallel between Stanley and Herb is really interesting:

I'm not add impressed by it. I know it's seen as a classic, but it took an hour for the real action to start.
I think Jackie and Sammo have better collaborations and individual movies.

'Singin' in the Rain' – Gene Kelly's gotta dance on HBO Max
‘Singin’ in the Rain’ – Gene Kelly’s gotta dance on HBO Max
Singin’ in the Rain (1952) has been hailed as the greatest American musical ever made. It’s certainly one of the most fun, a knockabout reimagining of the transition from silent to sound movies: lousy history but a blast of singing, dancing, romancing energy and color.
Gene Kelly is Don Lockwood, the vaudeville schlub turned movie stuntman and finally matinee idol. His introduction is brilliant,…

“ you must be one of mina’s friends, then? you better come in, i saw leo and sammy take snowboards to the roof, and they won’t bother to think about safety until they’ve knocked you out. “ there does exist a small part of her that wonders if she ought to exercise a touch more caution with just inviting people into the apartment. frankly, all along there had been this unspoken agreement that they would all defend themselves perfectly well enough to handle whatever dangerous stranger had the audacity to waltz in off the street. but oddly enough, fighting a stranger when they’re having a family dinner together feels out of place. so even as she closes the door behind him, she finds herself lightly hoping that he’s just here to socialize and have a good meal, rather than carry out any nefarious deeds in the process. “ i’d offer to take your coat, but i’ve been working on this prank all afternoon, and there’s paint on my arms. don’t suppose you want to help, would you? i just need someone to keep watch for tim; you might actually want to keep your coat on, if you’re helping me, that is. “
@lightcreators liked THIS POST for a family holiday dinner starter for draco!! ( and i’m gonna leave all the locations of the other muses in the tags in case you want draco to mingle! )

Headcanons for the Bittle-Zimmerman farmhouse:
Bitty keeps a garden. He plays Beyoncè for his heirloom tomatoes. The strawberries are Swifties. His herb garden prefers whatever Spotify playlist Jack uses when he goes on his morning runs. Jack started talking to the basil in French. Bitty ended up making pesto.
The kitchen takes up half the first floor. It’s the heart of the house. Clearly. It has a big stone fireplace that Bitty has used to cook things. Jack has pizza delivery on speed dial when Bitty announces he’s going to cook in the fireplace. It always smells like freshly baked bread. Bitty’s sourdough starter is named Blanche. Like the Golden Girl. She’s a sassy bitch. There’s a sitting area and breakfast nook. If they have parties, everyone gravitates toward the kitchen. It has a door that leads directly to Bitty’s hothouse. The kitchen is painted butter-yellow. There is more than one oven.
Jack found the dilapidated farmhouse while he was taking a drive to clear his head one weekend. He liked the wraparound porch. He pulled into the drive and instantly saw Bitty and a couple of kids cavorting in the yard. He put an offer on it the next day.
The wall of the staircase has Jack’s photos on it. Mostly black and white photos. The mantle of the living room fireplace is crowded with family photos. Most of them are candid shots.
There are six bedrooms, four full bathrooms, and two powder rooms. Tater practically lives there during the off-season. Ransom, Holster, Chowder, Nursey, and Dex call it Haus 3.0. Nursey finished his first novel in one of the guest rooms.
Alicia and Suzanne helped pick out the furniture. It looks nice, but can withstand an entire NHL team celebrating a Stanley Cup win.
There’s a photo of Patrick, their youngest, recreating Jack’s first encounter with the Stanley Cup during his first encounter with the Stanley Cup. In all fairness to Patrick, he was only 3 months old.
Jack built an outdoor kitchen for barbecues. Bitty uses it to can his jams.
Jack learned food photography. He does the photos for Bitty’s cookbooks, but uses a pseudonym. (His first and middle initials and his paternal grandmother’s maiden name.) All the photos are done in the kitchen, dining room, or the back deck/outdoor kitchen.

Christopher Gable and Twiggy in The Boy Friend (Ken Russell, 1971)
Cast: Twiggy, Christopher Gable, Max Adrian, Bryan Pringle, Murray Melvin, Moyra Fraser, Georgina Hale, Sally Bryant, Vladek Sheybal, Tommy Tune, Brian Murphy, Graham Armitage, Antonia Ellis, Caryl Little, Glenda Jackson. Screenplay: Ken Russell, based on a musical play by Sandy Wilson. Cinematography: David Watkin. Production design: Tony Walton. Costume design: Shirley Russell. Music: Peter Maxwell Davies; songs: Sandy Wilson, Nacio Herb Brown, Arthur Freed.
Nothing succeeds like excess. That seems to have been Ken Russell's motto, well displayed in The Boy Friend. As I watched it, I thought the first parody of Busby Berkeley's kaleidoscopic production numbers for Warner Bros. musicals was brilliant. The second was entertaining. The third was ... well, maybe the law of diminishing returns had set in. The original stage musical was a campy sendup of the kind of musical comedies that P.G. Wodehouse, Guy Bolton, and Jerome Kern used to create for the Princess Theatre and later in the 1920s: tuneful light romances with silly plots. But for the movie, Russell superadds a campy sendup of the backstage movie musicals of the 1930s, borrowing plot and even dialogue from 42nd Street (Lloyd Bacon, 1933), hence the Berkeley parodies. I first saw The Boy Friend around the time of its first release, and enjoyed it. But watching it again now, I found myself looking at the clock after the first hour and a half passed. The version I had seen in the theater was the one MGM had cut by 25 minutes; the restored version runs an exhausting two hours and 17 minutes. That said, there is much to enjoy about Russell's movie, especially the vividly colored production design by Tony Walton and costumes by Shirley Russell (the director's wife). The presence of the great Tommy Tune in the cast is also a plus. The Sandy Wilson songs are pleasantly hummable, and the interpolation of two songs by Nacio Herb Brown and Arthur Freed that were featured in Singin' in the Rain (Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly, 1952) is nice. But a little camp goes a long way, and piling camp on camp can be tiresome, especially if the camp is done the way Russell does it: with a smirk rather than a wink.
