Lol... I have never been on a shoe shopping spree in my life.... the only time I buy shoes is if I need them...

Does that make me weird? Lol..

Mmm... pretty close... a bit down from New Hampshire

*shivers as the fire starts to warm the place up*

Coffeehouse · 10-26-2008, 08:39 AM

*Looks at Flynn the Weird Redhead*

jk

Lol no really.. that's a rare trait!

Okay I'm going to guess that you're a Connecticuter or whatever the name is for ppl who live there. You could be Rhode Island but.. it's so small

And Massachucetts I can't spell so it can't be that

*Gets some blankets and chucks one over Flynns shoulders*

I'm getting hot chocolate.. mmm

Empress_Flynn · 10-26-2008, 08:42 AM

Lol, yes you would be correct... I am a Connecticutter.... and I have no idea what we call ourselves officially, so that name works as well as any other

M-a-s-s-a-c-h-u-s-e-t-t-s

*snuggles into the blankets* ahhh... thanks CH

Lol... I guess I'm just not much of a clothes shopper... I prefer buying books and DVDs and things...

Now, I WILL spend hours in the bookstore!

Coffeehouse · 10-26-2008, 08:47 AM

Lol Massachusetts.. I will never remember it.

*Covers up in a few blanks and sips hot chocolate with whipped cream*
Delicious

Connecticut seems like a beautiful place. I had a early middle school sweetheart who was from Connecticut

Respect for your libraryfetish! I have it too lol. Could walk around for ages looking at books. It's kinda nerdy but what the hell it's fun!!

*Turns on Pink Floyd 'Eclipse' for good measure*

Empress_Flynn · 10-26-2008, 08:52 AM

Lol... Connecticut can be really beautiful... especially in the autumn... but if you grow up here, the grass is always greener elsewhere, ya know? Lol...

And I usually take this opportunity to point out that I am from northern Connecticut, which is not the "rich part" of Connecticut... lotsa farms lol

I enjoy being a complete nerd! I get ridiculously excited over going to the bookstore, even if I can't buy anything, I like drooling over the books I want.

Not literally, of course

*steals CH's hot chocolate*

Coffeehouse · 10-26-2008, 08:58 AM

*Gives a long look to the kidnapped hot choco* Noooo.. Oh well.

*Grabs a new cup with even more cream. Lots of cream*

Admit it.. you've drooled on a book. Lol I can see it..

The pictures I've seen remind me of the part of Norway where I live, in the autumn. Lots of golden leaves and stuff. Good-looking

My uncle is a potato-farmer lol.. so you won't get jokes from me! I've actually stood on a potato-tractor (which is really big) and sorted out the dirt and rocks from the potatoes. It's great fun

Grey_Wolf · 10-26-2008, 08:59 AM

*The HotNTasty Beverage Monster keeps at it handing out Choko, Capuccino and Tea with the ardent help of the Tea & Coffe Monster*

***Varnafindë*** · 10-26-2008, 10:41 AM

Ooh, cappuccino! Cappuccino for me, please!

*accepts cappuccino from the monsters*

I'm packing for my Barcelona trip - I need caffeine ...

**Mari** · 10-26-2008, 10:48 AM

Good luck with packing

I have a book! And I have time to read it! 't is a Miracle I tell ya!

*nestles in the armchair near the fire and reverently opens the book to start reading*

sisterandcousinandaunt · 10-26-2008, 11:22 AM

Good morning, all. Sorry about the picture size.

I'm hoping to carve pumpkins today.

**Mari** · 10-26-2008, 11:27 AM

Cool, can I have the edible parts you cut out then? I'd like to make pumpkin-dango.

sisterandcousinandaunt · 10-26-2008, 12:06 PM

What's pumpkin dango?

Empress_Flynn · 10-26-2008, 12:29 PM

I want a pumpkin

sisterandcousinandaunt · 10-26-2008, 12:44 PM

Um, don't they have pumpkins in Connecticut? If you're very far away from stores, you must be close to pumpkins.

Empress_Flynn · 10-26-2008, 12:49 PM

Lol... we have pumpkins, but I don't have one lol...

And my car is currently not operational

Hopefully soon though

sisterandcousinandaunt · 10-26-2008, 01:23 PM

Aw, go for a walk. It'll be an adventure. "The Journey to Pumpkin!"

***Varnafindë*** · 10-26-2008, 01:30 PM

And you can write 50 000 words about it in November

**Mari** · 10-26-2008, 01:31 PM

A dango is a round sort of ball, three on a stick, usually made of mochi.

The pumpkin dango I want to make is with boiling the pumpkin for a short while, add honey and lots of sesame seeds! Then later you might want to heat them in the fire like marshmallows, but you can also eat them just like that.
Very delicious and healthy too ^_^

sisterandcousinandaunt · 10-26-2008, 01:39 PM

Generally speaking, the kind of pumpkin you carve for jack-o-lanterns is only marginally edible. The seeds are delicious toasted, but the flesh itself is fairly watery and uninteresting. Pumpkin for eating are small varieties sold under the name "Sugar pumpkin" or something like that.

The chickens have fun with them though.

**Mari** · 10-26-2008, 01:46 PM

Awww too bad.
I made those once in Japan and they tasted real good.
I would like to make them again some time.
