Okay, looks like the glitch, whatever it was, is fixed.  I'm still not sure what happened to lock me out of the "compose" function. 

Reading Freedom's Landing, by Anne McCaffrey. An oldie but a goodie; one of her juveniles.  Aliens kidnap humans to serve as slaves in their empire.  It's holding my attention, but it is so Mary Sue.

Good weekend!  I spent Saturday at Sharon's. Winalee showed up and we went over documentation for A&S projects using the Guided Documentation form from the Kingdom A&S site.  I think they both have a good understanding of where to go from here. Winalee and I will both proofread and nudge hem along the way to Magna Faire. Both Sharon and Jory took the class.  Sharon and I went out to a gardening store with wondrous stuff, and thence to JoAnn's, where I proceeded to try to buy the entire yarn department. Oh, and we gt quilling kits, too. She's already made a flower with hers, and it's beautiful.  I think she'll stick with it.

Winalee has asked me to knit a bag for her; it's the Turkish bag out of the new Piecework. We talked about that for a bit. Hilary never showed up.  Dave came with Nick, and he sat and wove a strip on his loom while Nick ran around ike the two year old he is. He's a cute kid.

We tried out the Scotch eggs recipe, and it was a real success. Dave suggested that instead of eggs we use a ball of cheese, and that was good too.  We all agreed the cheese neeeded to be different; something meltier. We used string cheese because it was the only thing we had on hand.  We'll try Monterey Jack, and something else to be determined. Sharon thinks the Scotch eggs/cheese should have stayed in the oven for a bit longer; we used 10 minutes per the recipe, and she thinks we should go with 12 or 15.

Sunday, off to fighter practice, and we had a lot of heavy fighters there, as well as, let's see, I think we had six rapier fighters as well.  Phylip came and fought a bit. I think I counted six heavies as well, with both Aethulwulf and Valdryk teaching in small groups as well as the whole. Among them, they managed to break four shields, and they've scheduled an armor night to repair the shields and work on armor in general. It was a good fighter practice.

On the way home from practice I stopped at K&S, the international grocery on Charlotte avenue, and picked up garlic, leeks, some hot sauce, and chipotles in adobe for some recipe Theo's trying. And the car wouldn't start again, because the anti-lock on the ignition is worn, and the key is worn, and the antilock now thinks I'm trying to steal the car and shuts down the ignition. I have to sit and wait for the computer to reset. I have to figure out some way to disarm it or disconnect it.  It's getting really annoying.

To infinity and beyond!

Home to straighten up and try a bowl of Theo's gumbo, which was defini

Still Can't Post Anything. Weird.

Okay, looks like it'll let me type in the block if I change everything to HTML, whatever that is.

Odd. I can't seem to post anything in th text block
