Yep, Val got a royalty check, which means Val can spend a wee bit of money on her two newest obsessions:

1. Bentos: I bought some egg molds, veggie cutters and another box. It is soooo cute - pictures when I get it.

2. BPAL: I ordered six imps - Hellcat, Jolly Roger, Ode on Melancholy, Danse Macabre, Haunted and Blood Kiss. I'm in love with the names already. Hopefully I'll get them before Christmas.

Working on my sister's blanket at work, and glad it's big enough to snuggle under!

More later.

Well! This has been quite the weekend!

Yesterday, we had gaming on the porch with [livejournal.com profile] argus7hills and his buddies, while we had writers group in the living room. Lots of good feedback and good food (I made a roast pork with apples, garlic and onions, and lots of roasted root veggies. Then watched the Red Sox win Game 6 against the Indians, played a bunch of WoW and went to bed at around 4:30 am. Whew!

Today, I woke up to whooping - the guys were watching the Patriots beat Miami into the ground (yes, I slept that late). Cleaned up the kitchen and the dining room, then got down to the serious business of cooking.

I made:

- a cranberry pecan bread with soymilk (we ran out of regular milk)
- my first batch of onigri (yay!)
- a whole wheat pasta with garlic, roasted veggies and cheese and garlic sausage in a tomato sauce
- egg salad (and I tried a tea-stained egg! Very good!)

That's all so far. I've packed up bento lunches for [livejournal.com profile] argus7hills and I for tomorrow - I still have to pack my dinner bento for tomorrow, but I'm not sure what I want (besides onigri). I'm going to see, after the end of Game 7.

Now to work on [livejournal.com profile] argus7hills' halloween costume while watching the game.

More later.
