Eleventh Thread: Wedding Edition: The Hobbit Hole XI - No One Admitted Except on Wedding Business!
New verse:
Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
And good morning everyone!
And BTW, the actual title is just "Messiah" (no "The") </music geek nit-picking>
Soo...what time should I show up?
I love that stuff...
Heh...last night we went to the Irish session at the pub, and when we left Stephen and I were both all keyed up even though it was ten o'clock. He said "let's go SOMEWHERE!" I reminded him that he's in rural Vermont, where nothing is open after maybe seven at the latest, except for McDonalds (open until eleven) and Wal-Mart over in NH (open until midnight, just 'til Christmas). He said "OK, let's go visit the Qs!" Dunno where that came from! Guess he just assumed you'd be up. ;-)
My dad likes to make his mother's recipe of Christmas sugar cookies every year, complete with frosting and sprinkles. If our oven worked a bit better, and we had more room in our kitchen, I would like to make them too.
Suzi, that sounds delicious! What is the sweetener? Maltilol? That's good stuff!
Rosie, how was the session? Oh my goodness, I wish I could go!
I'm fixin' cheap cinnamon rolls for the boys...you know, the kind that come in a tube? They love 'em and the house will smell good.
heh... we'uns just got done watchin' it yesterday...good flick...
the only thing missing is elves gettin' iced screamin' like wimmen'...
Hallelujah!!
Good morning!
mmmmmmmmmmmmm... Mississippi Mud cake...
It was a pretty quiet session. Just me and Stephen and Bill and Jim. One guy that plays with us came for the first time - he plays with another band and their practice night is on Thursdays, so usually he's unable to come. However, he hurt his hand and couldn't really play along, so there wasn't much to it! All family members! We coulda held it at my house. But I like that pub...it's a nice little place.
muh folks is inbound... gettin' thehouse ready...
gotta re-zero Painless, get thegarbage tuh the corner, drop off stuff at the taxidermist, pick up a leafblower from the MDC...
gonna go cut a small cedar tree with the grandparents tuh put in the playroom fer thekidz...
We had our Secret Santa "reveal" this morning. Lots of snacks.
Elastic waistbands are our holiday friends.
I'll drink (and eat) to that!
There are cookies here today. I can make New Year's resolutions, I guess. Heh...
Wife actually bought one of those last year for school stuff. She was putting together some of the students' works and it wsa cheaper just to buy it and bind them herself.
Well, yes, but the subject matter is The Messiah...
Suzi has one of those, too. I woulda taken her up on the offer to help me make a book outta my document, but since I took so long to finish, and since that place is so cheap...and it woulda taken a LOT of ink and neither of us have a laser printer, I figured I'd just use the service I mentioned. I think it's cheaper in my situation.
But comb-binding works the BEST for cookbooks, IMO! Means the book lies nice and flat.
True, but as it was written in quotes, she was referring to the musical work, not the subject thereof.
In other words, there's a reason why you're unable to chat in the Hole that much! You're BUSY!! :-)
Cat just got the chickens all "uh-lahmed" (alarmed as Joshua puts it). It just saunters through our back yard on the way to it's home...but it doesn't seem to want to bother the chickens...but it's a whole lot of excitement for the girls!
