Decant circle update - the phoenix has landed!
It's here! My Carnival Diabolique Act III decant circle order, that is. A very cold, snow-coverd postman just rang my doorbell and handed over a deliciously heavy Global Priority Mail box (well, in exchange for $11 duty & PST...*). I was a little wary since the box was in a plastic bag and marked as having been opened by customs, but I've checked and everything seems fine. All the bottles are now lined up neatly on my desk, and there's a sizable pile of frimps to divide between circle participants as well.
I will be working on decanting everything over the next few days. Another update to follow when everything is ready to go. Right now, I'm mainly just madly sniffing it all.
. . .
BTW, apologies for the lack of any sort of real posts here in the last while. I've been insanely busy, and probably will be for the next month and a half or so as well. Lots I'd like to write about, but no time to do it in. But I hope I'll be able to find a spare moment here and there to at least
. . .
* Yes, the Lab's strategy of kindly marking the value of all packages to Canada as $5 doesn't seem to have gone over well this time, as customs opened the box and reassessed it as $100. Can't complain, really, especially since the actual value was $350.
