Re: CCT,

Live Action Role Playing--As kids, we called it Let's Pretend, and dressed up in whatever was in the dress-up box. Grown-up dress-up gets quite a lot more complex!

When I was in England at my daughter's, we had a nut loaf of the brand started by Linda McCartney. It was very tasty, kind of sausage-like: had a lot of sage in it. I was disappointed to find it could not be bought here in the US.

What is a larping Ciel. I know I should look it up. It is the same when I ask my brother something .he says look it up on Google. You do seem to have a variety of food. We are just experimenting with nut roast it needs plenty of beef gravy.

I need to buy yarn. I used to make scarves for the homeless and gave to a shelter that would hand them out along with sandwiches.

Re: Goldiec,

I keep saying, trying to learn my phone and any new computer thing--the learning curve is like trying to climb a mountain while wearing flip-flops!

Good afternoon

I love shopping at Joann's Fabrics. They have so many craft ideas and supplies.

Good Morning

Ciel, I loved this post.  I think you had a wonderful week doing just what you wanted to do.  Those mushrooms sure sound tasty to me.  I just put a roast in the oven and now that I'm thinking about it I should have put some mushrooms in with the gravy.  This is such a beautiful time of year to go for a ride and to take pictures.  I got a new phone and I was trying to take pictures with it and I kept taking selfies.  I didn't want a picture of me I wanted a picture of the beautiful trees outside.  My grandson was here this weekend and he showed me what I was doing wrong.  It was simple but I didn't know.  I know now.  The kids are so good with phones, remotes, computers and you name it.  Every now and then I need them to help me.  I hope you have a good day and a great week.

Re: adnohr,

Much of the week was just veging out or doing my LOTRO diet. That's my one game: Lord of the Rings Online. I go there for a false sense of accomplishment as my very attractive and slender avatar/toon/selves run endlessly across the landscapes of Middle-earth kicking shins and mugging orcs for their slippers.

Just that one day alone was very busy! If your whole week was like that, you deserve to sit in a chair and relax with kitty.
