Cheeky Actress

Well...my room is also booked. I am surprised, they are filling up FAST! Let's see....get there Thursday night, help with SCHTUFF (as Rats puts it) - and see all you wonderful people again!!!! Lady B, The More the Merrier! My word! Looks like our Captain will have to make sure he is armed to the teeth the RF4!

Well Pat, the general rule is 14-21 days. Best bet....

^ I love the Fall colors! This year, my yard is showing more orange and reds than in the last three years! Must have been a very wet spring! < Syked about Williamsburg! Can't wait...so much to do, packing, laundry, shopping, lists.... V What is the down side of vacationing that you don't care for?

^The movie 'Always' - Based on the original movie - A man name Joe - True classic love story with a twist of ' what if...' < Fall...Fall...Fall...I miss New England in the Fall V pass the question along

And you're still eating them?! Brave man, you are! Not much of a dinner tonight...more like picking over the left overs in the fridge. Warmed up chicken and rice, carrots, half a apple and a dove ice cream bar. Ya, I'll be able to fit into my Halloween costume if I keep eating like this!

Ah yes Master Dorian!...I can tell. Same Father - different mothers!

The sound of me catching my breath... Gosh, what a busy day!

The sound of my heater going...ya, I know...but it is rainy and cold outside today...

UPDATE: Just wore my 17th century shoes this past weekend for 11 hours. The condition of the ground was wet, hard packed in some areas and very muddy in others. As far as the comfort went, I had no problems! Note, As Mary Diamond did state, a shoe horn is needed to help get the shoes on. Overall...I am very happy with them!

^ A day trip to a spa is always nice! I get the whole treatment...Well worth it with the holiday stress. < Sending you a hug, Red Cat. V Cross country skiing or down hill?

Yup! It was a great day...connected with friends and family far and near, enjoyed sitting on the porch sipping wine and laughing... We all need more days like this!

Very well...but it was Master Dorian who started it!

^ Yes, but it's been years since I've flopped backwards into a 6 foot high drift. Back in Upstate NY we had them all the time...here, not so much! < Gosh, Thanksgiving isn't even here and you're talking about SNOW V What is your first Winter ritual?

1) Cheese pizza with bacon 2) check book that needs to be balanced! 3) Christie 4) Flaxen

Seeing that it is Sunday...tis the day to drink to Absent Friends... Our heart across the ocean wends, And loyally, with three times three, We toast our “Absent Friends!” Absent Friends!” -- The lost legion that lies in the grave; The friends who were false and the friends we forgave, -- Whose words had the edge of the enemy’s knife, To torture the heart and to poison the life; -- The friends who lay dying and never could know That we loved at the last as we loved long ago! So each across his wine-cup bends, And silently, and tearfully, We pledge our “Absent Friends!”

The steady drone from the television in the other room.

Didn't have to really cook tonight. Friends brought a ready made pizza and all we needed to do it heat it up.

Thank you Red Cat...and all of you. Happy and motivated!

Some left over white wine my friends brought over tonight. It's not half bad. It's called, "Menage a Trois'. It's a nice California White table wine. Discovered it about a year ago down in IL. Just barely a glass left

Dove ice cream bar...(Hmm...Heavenly)

Captain! The very image is amusing at best...but how does one tie it to the end of a rod? The image of that poor thing meowing as it thrusting in a cannon...YIKES!

Printing out the wonderful Green tomato mincmeat posting that Ransom just posted. Sounds yummy!

I hear you too, Lady B. My evil-twin has a lovely pair of black court shoes and wears them often...even out in the mundane world. She's had them for seven years and they still look good. What is comes down to is once you get those great shoes/boots and you spend that nice bit of gold for them...THEY WILL LAST, but only if you maintain them right. She found a local cobblers who does a great job on heel/soul repair. He also cleans/shines them up for no charge with repairs. Very nice gent.

Me too! My word...tell me you don't have four pairs of Manolo Blahniks in your closet too, Kenneth!?!
