[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

billytea! Good to see your shiny typeface here.

Happy Birthday, Gris. That is indeed some nice sister.

Tell Kara and Ain-Kor happy bluebird feet. I'll see if I can find tiny blue and white stuffed birds to tuck into her marabou-trimmed "glass" slippers. And yay! for birthday dinners, kids down (or out) and front doors barred against intruders.

Carrot cake is veg, right?

No. It is sugar, fat, and some shredded veg that is cooked long enough that its starch is converted to sugar. I can't fake up carrot cake.

:: cries::

today Carrot cake can be a veggie, but only because it is saturday.

::is happy! throws confetti! gives beth carrot cake. does NOT share with cindy::

Actually, in our family, carrot cake is wedding cake. And proposition cake. "C'mon, honey-bunny. I'll make you a...carrot cake..."

This grocery store carrot cake was not worth the candle (heh) and after one slice, DH passed it onto Mom.

"Why should she get your cast-offs?"

"Is it sweet?"

"Yes."

His eyebrow goes up. He waits. The penny drops.

"Oh. Okay."

Wow, that's pretty. It makes me want to set a story in 1877 so I can write about a woman wearing it.

I'm not quite sure what I think of myself - if I had unlimited funds, I would literally collect clothing.

And did you see this one? [link]

If I had unlimited funds, I'd collect clothing plus a little bit of everything else my imaginary people use. I'm not quite sure what to think of myself when the mere act of writing a novel with a Rifleman hero has taken me from, "Guns? But I'm a liberal!" to "I want a reproduction Baker rifle, and I want to take it to a gun range and learn to shoot it."

Susan, that gown is gorgeous. I could do some serious covetting there.

Susan, that gown is gorgeous.

Isn't it? Like the one Aimee posted, I'm having fun imagining the right woman to wear it. Since it's a 1912 dress, it's a little too obvious to put her on the Titanic, so I'm mentally altering the line and cut just enough to make it an 1812 dress, only neither of the heroines I've created so far has the coloring for those shades, so I need someone with maybe chestnut or dark blonde hair and...

Good lord. Show me a dress and I write a novel.
