Oh no, I didn't send my best to Sue's dad -- I thought it so hard! I'm glad you guys aren't having a holiday tomorrow, at least.
In holiday news, the pumpkin roulade I just made is sofa king good, you guys.
Cacophony. That's pretty. What's it mean?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's the kind of campaign I like to play!
I miss DMing. Dealing with a bunch of people with military experience made it tricky, because they'd always say "No, we're not strolling up to the front gate and announcing ourselves! We're going in over the back wall!" Though one of them did learn that in the middle of a battle is not the time to change your armor and put on the really cool mega-armor you just found, because that causes the DM to grin and say "What's your buck naked armor class? Because a bunch of soldiers just came around the corner."

They gave me back the cat food!
Okay, I was not expecting that, yay!
Thanks for the ~ma. I haven't talked to him, but I suspect the no food will make him very grumpy. I wish he didn't have to be admitted to hospital...they're no place to be when you're sick.

Ooh, that filling sounds delicious Jesse! I was skeptical when I read "buttercream" but mascarpone with sugar and cream and ginger sounds delicious.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Connie, we went to the Vikings exhibit at the Museum Center today, and it totally made me think of you. Their motto was "The horns are fake. The beards are real."

Hah. The quote I like is from a Hagar the Horrible book "Sword for show, axe for dough." Also "Never loot anything that has to be walked, fed, or watered."

Thanks to current media's depiction of Vikings, I was SUPER surprised to learn the average height of a male Viking was 5'7" (and 5'3" for women).
My husband is 1 inch taller than a Viking.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Health~ma for your dad, Sue.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Vikings looked really tall next to Celts, though, right?
That roulade sounds fantastic! Please remind me it exists when I need to make something for next year's T-day pot luck, it would be perfect.
