35 days left...

... and for the first time ever, I can actually contribute to the Halloween flair. I tried my hand on pumpkin carving today and the results, well... they fit the holiday, I think. Not quite voluntarily, I might add, but there's a reason why I never wanted to become a sculptor.

( Warning: fairly horrible pictures behind the tag )

Other than that, Mum's prehistoric telly died on us for good, so we'll have to buy a new, flat, digital one that won't last half as long as the old one did. But that's capitalism for you.

Congratulations and felicitations!

Happy Birthday, motodraconis! I hope you're having a terrific time, despite being far from home and all that snow.

Here, have some Red Velvet Cake! I made it myself a month ago; alas, the guests ate it all, and I doubt it would have survived the long journey to Norway.



Many happy returnings, and may all your wishes come true!
