corvaxgirl* As I've mentioned, my sister has decided to put her crazy into baking. This means yesterday when she answered the phone, she said, "Hard. To. Talk. Bananas. On. Hands!" leading to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shardkin giving her her new mob nickname, Melissa Bananahands.
* Got to hang a little with her yesterday. She now wants to make jambalaya with me and is determined to tackle Paula Deen's Savannah High Apple Pie with me. This requires 24 apples. The joke has been she can come over to cook if it's WINTERAPOCOLYPSE as we're three blocks away. This had led us to speculate that she would have a cask of coffee around her neck like a St. Bernard and that she would carry the apples in her throat somehow and then reguritate them for baking in a Jennifer's Body like scenerio.
* Last night took Mothra to Colonial Kitchen Dinner. The look of utter panic on my sister's face when she realized what she was in for (a low key renaissance faire like setting) was awesome. I was like, Do you need to call someone about this? But as usual, she got totally into it. She was offended that "Abraham Lincoln rejected her advances" and made friends with the musicians. The "pye" was really good, the beef soup was really good, the warm apple wine was really good, and the desserts were good. I must be eating less now. I can only eat half a bowl of ramen at the noodle gourmet and I could only eat half my dinner and a few tiny nibbles of my dessert.
* I am finishing the last bit ofgeeksdoitbetter's roving. shardkin and I ordered some Blue Face Leicester from Louet. geeksdoitbetter has been v. patient explaining stuff to me. My next purchase will likely be a swift and then a starter set of dyes. I'm contemplating attempting 3-ply yarn. My spinning is improving. I think by like April, I should be competent enough to know how to skein it, measure the yards, and possibly dye my own (the last is a stretch but I live in hope).
*arxacies started sleeping in his new place on Sunday night. It's a little weird and at times anxious making for all parties involved, but so far (on day 3 ;p) the transition to non-cohabitating romantic partner seems to be going well. His roommates are nice, he's getting settled.
