Allyson: if a little of what you fancy does you good, then doesn't a lot of you fancy do you excellent. (Grammar? This is a justification. I don't need no stinkin grammar!)

Yeah, probably not. I miss going to the DC VegFest every year. Bethlehem is the nearest one to me. (Well, there's also a thing in Johnstown, which is a little closer, but that's a conference, not a festival, so it costs money and requires staying in a dorm, and just, no.)

dcp, a shadowbox will work.

To the young man bagging my groceries:

Do not try to convince the bald woman in the scarf that she had a "super fantastic" day. You came *this* close to being beaned with a 12-pack of fizzy water.

So last night with my neighbors, my stomach was dodgy so I stuck to g-ale, later adding just a touch of bourbon. I wasn't paying attention, they were apparently killing 3 bottles of red.

I just had to give a recap. Pretty funny, except for A, who spent the day on a sailboat on some team building thing, and B, packing up their display rooms...oof.

Plei, thank you, I hadn't thought of that. The only thing I had come up with was a clear cover like a cake dome.

my "perk" arrived today

That is a really awesome perk!

Want to see when you get it done, dcp! Is it leathery-maroon on one side and sort of turquoise blue on the other? In the picture the dragon's throat is kind of blue, though I guess that could be the light.

Like a bell jar.

Leathery-maroon on top, yes. The underside is more a dark gray with a tinge of green. I need to find a better setting, with better lighting, to photograph it properly.
