I found my camera uploading cord! Hooray, it is picture time. This first one is from the Jane Austen tea, which Emma and Micky and I had over Christmas break. Aside from the name, it was not very Austenian: we had cucumber sandwiches and ham & brie sandwiches, and chocolate cherries, and tea.
The teapot in the background was my twice great aunt's. Usually it sits behind glass on the sideboard, being picturesque.
( I'm a little teapot... )Last night at Stonehenge (Emma lives in Stonehenge. It is a successor state to Camelot) we had a turkey dinner. The turkey did not finish cooking till midnight, so until then we amused ourselves with sweet potato fries, rice with mushrooms, and no-bake cookies; and Emma French-braided my hair.
( Braids! ) I should name my apartment. We tried to call it Shalott, as in "the lady of," but as I never lived in Camelot, it never seemed to take. Emma lives in Stonehenge (and before that in Avalon; but that didn't work out), and Micky lives in the Little Blue House; I begin to feel left out.
On the other hand, my car is the Silver Steed. We all shout "Hi ho, Silver!" whenever we go anywhere.
