Fun weekend:)
May. 2nd, 2005 10:38 amTwas a good weekend:)
Fri evening - birthday dessert evening, shared with Rachel, and at R&Ms place with lots of medievalists. Good company and nice desserts. Should I be unsuprised about how small the Chch world is? Z pointed out Phil's latest photos to Rachel and we found out Becs was on the same floor as Rachel at Bish... Given the overlaps in people known as Z was at College House with Mathias...
Sat: Birthday.. 28 now. Lazy day:). Some shopping in the late afternoon - found raw henna (YAY!) and big bags of cinnamon and cassia quills (indian grocer which sells spices by the kilo - ground and whole and cheap:). And bags of sugar crystals over a cm square... The Last Unicorn on DVD:). Mmmmm homemade curry and tandoori chicken fo dinner - curry initially didn't smell right after adding yogurt and coconut cream, but tasted good in end. Hot pumpkin pie and cream, left over from Fri.
Sun: AAF workshop at Mark's place. Lots of forge work going on - swords, tripods, failing to melt things... Got back inset gore placed in Bayeux Tapestry dress- worked a LOT better than previous attempts. Need to finish seams on that, put in front gore (yay swirling full skirts:), finish attaching sides and work out how much to take in at sides, embroider and sew on cuffs, hem... and then it is done:). Remains of curry etc for dinner - even nicer reheated:)
Yep, good weekend. Warm skin and all:)
