Prize goes to Judithah! It's a few drops of maple extract added to milk...the extract always churns and shoots out in the most interesting patterns. It's the start of our sat a.m. breakfast...follow on being eggs added to the milk and beaten to make whole wheat french toast served with 100% maple syrup, butter, and slices of fresh strawberries. Yum.

Okay, patting myself on back...I showed it to Keoni and he was amazed I got the flavor! Ha!

Congrats Judith!

I'd have never spelled "Rorschach" in a million years. I finally remembered the word and tried to google it to figure out the spelling and this stupid isp wouldn't load the google page.

16723. arkymalarky - 9/24/2005 8:34:14 PM

Yeow!

I don't remember that about Yossarian, but I'm sure you're right. I need to read that again.

?

"That book"

Well, it's rained enough that the satellite keeps going out. I guess I ought to resign myself to a rural lifestyle and quit trying to have it both ways out here. It would cut down on 50% of my whining, and on %100 of the part y'all get exposed to. ;-)

16725. arkymalarky - 9/24/2005 8:44:21 PM

Well, evidently all the other Arky hicks in my part of the state are also out of satellite reception and now they're on this slow isp with me. It's crawling and I keep getting disconnected. Guess I'll read a book before the lights go out. I swear, this Christmas Santa's bringing us a dadgummed generator.

Y'all stay dry.

Not only could I spell Rorschach but I've been to the town of the same name near the border of Germany and Switzerland.

16727. PelleNilsson - 9/24/2005 9:52:06 PM

Catch 22 belongs to the books I re-read every five years or so. I think it's time soon.

16728. arkymalarky - 9/25/2005 12:31:44 AM

Well, satellite's been back and puter's back to "normal." Coincidencs? I think not.

16729. arkymalarky - 9/25/2005 12:34:38 AM

I used to have a short list of books I'd reread every few years, among them Wind in the Willows and Lord of the Rings. They're good for my psyche. I actually bought a new one-volume LotR book when I had my surgery and didn't get around to reading it, but I'm thinking I will this winter. I finally saw the first two movies this summer on TV. I wish I could have seen them in the theater.

16730. arkymalarky - 9/25/2005 12:36:16 AM

Man, the wind is really whipping here. I'm loving this weather. Rain all day and temps in the 70sF.

16731. arkymalarky - 9/25/2005 12:37:04 AM

Gotta go to the porch now. Too bad it wasn't this neat outside when the computer and satellite were screwing up.

16732. wonkers2 - 9/25/2005 1:52:48 AM

I've read Catch 22 a couple of times. It's one of my all-time favorites. It's also my youngest son'e favorite book. I find satisfaction when my children like books or movies I liked. Usually it's not on my recommendation but by their chance discovery. (They don't respond readily to my recommendations.)

16733. wonkers2 - 9/25/2005 1:55:22 AM

My two oldest children liked "The Lord of the Rings." For some reason I never read it nor did I see the movie(s). My daughter's cat is named "Frodo."

16734. arkymalarky - 9/25/2005 2:18:00 AM

Hey! My parents had a dog named Frodo.

Well, the weather was cool, and now the electricity's out. I'm on my laptop with the dialup modem hooked up, but not for long on battery power.

It's rained hard pretty much all day.

16735. arkymalarky - 9/25/2005 2:18:38 AM

Cool as in neat, though it's fairly cool as in cool. 74F.

16737. Ulgine Barrows - 9/25/2005 3:01:48 AM

16687. Ms. No, that is some gorgeous tooling. I have some bags from my grandmother that don't have as much detail.

16738. Magoseph - 9/25/2005 1:08:33 PM

Sorry, Ulgine, but 16736 had to go.

16739. Magoseph - 9/26/2005 11:34:47 AM

Hello, everyone! Did you have a restful weekend, Mac? Not much to relate from here. It has been raining all weekend, not cold yet, though.

Ali, how was the birthday party, and Ms. No, were you able to go to the 12th Annual Hart of the West Intertribal Pow-Wow? Judith, how did the dinner last evening turn out?

I hope that we hear soon from Jen. It’s worrisome not to know anything.

16740. Ms. No - 9/26/2005 3:51:21 PM

Ulgine, I'd love to see pictures. I'm always hunting for design ideas now.
