Food, Flowers, and Furry Animals
Long time no livejournal, eh? Thanks for the happy birthday wishes last week, I'm surprised any of you remember who I am. ^^
I was telling Tamma Lammaaaaa about my newfound love for pickled eggs. I went to a picnic last weekend for my chapter of the chinchilla breeders club, and brought along deviled pickled eggs which I thought turned out rather smashing, but not too many of the folks there were brave enough to try them. My culinary talents were confirmed when I brought the leftovers in to my coworkers, and they were disappeared by the end of the day.
Garnished with a sliver of beet. SO TASTY!
Also, I went to the Farmers Market downtown today. It's been a few years since I've browsed down there, but I wanted to get some gentle soaps for my super sensitive skin and I heard someone sells some there. One of the soaps I got has ylang ylang in it. XD I had to get it, just to rehash the "Sleep" that Jink once sent me.
Also got some shoofly pie! From authentic Amish people! That their children made with their bare feet! I've never had it, but heard so much about it, so I thought I'd try it. I didn't think I would like it, but it was better than I was expecting. Not something I'd go out of my way for, but not bad.
And! A pretty bouquet of flowers for my dining room table. It's so purdy. If I had to pick a favorite flower, I think it would be sunflowers.
And lastly for this update of updates, the litter of kittoons I've been raising turned 8 weeks old yesterday. They're all grown up! Well, they're still tiny, but they're more like miniature cats now than kittoons. Pygmy cats. =D
Coincidentally, this one's name is Flower.
