Cheeky Actress Posted December 25, 2007 Posted December 25, 2007 Not for Tom's singing... but fer nigh on seven years now, Cheeky has told me she cannot sign...so fer nigh on seven years she's been humming... Do not get me wrong Captain....'Tis not that I cannot sing. I do have a splendid voice...yet, just like MadMary....it is that I do not care to in public..especially a lone. I do love to sing if someone where to sing with me... Perhaps Silkie and I can muster a tune or two? Member of "The Forsaken"
Silkie McDonough Posted December 25, 2007 Posted December 25, 2007 Dear, dear Lilly (or Bess) I would indeed love to see what we may do with a melody!
William Brand Posted December 25, 2007 Author Posted December 25, 2007 And a good holiday for singing too. I shall add a baritone to the mix and we shall see what we can make of a few tunes.
callenish gunner Posted December 25, 2007 Posted December 25, 2007 Well after a brunch of hashed browned potatoes with peppers and onions and scrambled eggs with a sharp cheddar melted in, with top sirloin steaks grilled extra rare .....went about steaming the Christmas pudding with figs and dates and golden raisins, fresh grated ginger, and cinnamon, and fresh ground nutmeg; add to that, eggs, freshly made bread crumbs, and some nice rich black rum and ginger brandy ....it's been steaming for the past three hours another two to go ......aye now that's Christmas
Black Syren Posted December 25, 2007 Posted December 25, 2007 Flies through the doors with a spray of mistletoe in one hand, A laugh upon her lips and the holiday spirit in her heart...Merry Christmas!!!!! Twirls about the room kissing Silkies cheek then Maeve's...Curtsies and then hugs Cheeky with great exuberance as well as Jenny Hugs William and Dorian and tosses glitter like magic from her other hand. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v519/Dara286/trident01-11.png If you got a dream chase it, cause a dream won't chase you back...(Cody Johnson Till you Can't)
Red Cat Jenny Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 Aww thanks Syren hugs back..here ya go and I have some left over dark chocolate strawberries for all of us to cap the night.. Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.... Her reputation was her livelihood. I'm a pirate, love. By nature and by choice! My inner voice sometimes has an accent! My wont? A delicious rip in time...
William Brand Posted December 26, 2007 Author Posted December 26, 2007 It was a grand holiday and I made out like a bandit. Pirate books, food galore and no shortage of family fun.
Silkie McDonough Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 Silkie, who spent the holiday at work or alone or in bed, sits quietly near the hearth sipping at a hot toddy (to help cure her cold) anticipating the coming weekend with her family.
William Brand Posted December 27, 2007 Author Posted December 27, 2007 Silkie needs chicken soup with thyme. There. You'll feel better.
Red Cat Jenny Posted December 27, 2007 Posted December 27, 2007 "Now you nevermind about time.." Miss Ashcombe Says as she ushers Silkie to an overstuffed chair in the parlor, soup in hand. "What you need is some fluffy slippers a blanket and a lap cat to keep ya warm. "Now then you just sit there till ya feel better" Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.... Her reputation was her livelihood. I'm a pirate, love. By nature and by choice! My inner voice sometimes has an accent! My wont? A delicious rip in time...
Silkie McDonough Posted December 27, 2007 Posted December 27, 2007 Silkie curls up in the big chair with the soup, slippers and the kitten. Nice kitty ...Silkie lets it lay thee but doesn't touch the fur ball ...allergic. If I touch that then my face, neck or eyes ...very itchy stuff gona happen. But it is so much better than a hot water bottle.
Red Cat Jenny Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 This morning's beverage is hot cocoa with mini marshmallows.. Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.... Her reputation was her livelihood. I'm a pirate, love. By nature and by choice! My inner voice sometimes has an accent! My wont? A delicious rip in time...
William Brand Posted December 28, 2007 Author Posted December 28, 2007 Have you ever tried homemade marshmallows?

William Brand Posted December 28, 2007 Author Posted December 28, 2007 They are for eating. Let's play draughts with them.

Smiles to Silkie and cuddles the kitten. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v519/Dara286/trident01-11.png If you got a dream chase it, cause a dream won't chase you back...(Cody Johnson Till you Can't)
