Arreal | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 04:31 pm  I'm not so worried about the host. I don't see him as being cruel or picking sides. I think he just suffers from a bit of PMS now and then. This punch will last a while I think. 1 quart red grape juice 4 T sugar 40 mint leaves 1 quart red wine juic from 3 lemons edible flowers such as primroses, apple and orange blossoms, pansies, borage, and rose pettal. heat the first three things then add the mint leaves. Let sit for a while (Overnight- but we'll skip that point) Steep and and the rest of the things. I must say it is very good, especially served cold. You did say you were up for trying new things. |
Arreal | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 04:35 pm  I have been worrying about voting conspiracies on the outside. I would hate to think my friends and family are targeting anyone in here to keep me safe. I just don't think it is fair. I think everyone should form their own ideas and opinions, both in here and out there. No 'group think' for me. Something else that really chaps my ass, the new passwords we all have. I can't remember it half the time. It's a pain. |
Moondance | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 04:38 pm  Arreal ... left a message in the BR area and you can change your password in edit profile |
Roger_Ramjet | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 04:40 pm  Vykin, Moon, Arreal--great to have us all here this fine afternoon--at least I hope it's fine for all of you. Arreal--The punch sounds great. I think we have all of these things in our storage areas. <Unless I hear otherwise from Host, I'm making it with all ingredients as listed--haha> Yes, I like to try new things. Sometimes they are great, and sometimes not---although you'll never get to experience the great things without trying! lol! Moon, Vykin, Arreal--you feeling pretty good that we will succeed on our first group challenge?? I look forward to seeing if everyone else gets to the same point as we did after looking over the information. You guys have any specific takes on the banners?? <<<<btw, how many of you have started typing in your old name or password at least once??? I've done it twice now. I laughed at myself!>>>>> |
Vykin | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 04:40 pm  Hey Roger, Moon, Arreal, Just came from the Bathroom, I think Luke is taking a shower. Rog, I love a good Mondavi |
Roger_Ramjet | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 04:45 pm  It would be great to hear how Luke's day has been going. He can join us in our BS session. Vykin--I've had a number of his wines. Some are good and some I didn't care for. His igher priced vines are very good, at least on my tongue! Do you like any dessert wines? |
Vykin | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 04:45 pm  Group: arreal agree would be honored if my hometown stood behind me, but I certainly wouldn't want them to do anything devious or underhanded. I left instructions before I entered this House, for items which needed to be dealt with in terms of my business and personal family needs. Other than that, I like a fair and square game. Regarding the challenge: I think we may do well. Passwords: don't have problem with my user name, but I really need to change my password. Big H, has us working so hard in here, I haven't had time to change it. |
Vykin | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 04:48 pm  I was hoping Luke snuck some seafood in for us, I recall being in S.F. and having the greatest clam chowder there! |
Roger_Ramjet | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 04:51 pm  Arreal--I'd like it better if big groups didn't "gang up" on anyone. I always promote individual thinking in any event. It is part of the game, however---or I should say, can be part of the game. I'm thinking back to all of our friend son the outside--seemed such a high percentage are fantastic folks. I think they will be fair to us. As you said though, you never know what will happen, since we can't see what's going on with them. |
Himay10ns | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 04:52 pm  Hi everyone...I'll hang around for a few more minutes. Hot date with the gyno tonight! Roger, just wanted to say great job with the challenge. Your questions really helped to nail down some important information. |
Moondance | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 04:58 pm  May ... hot date??? ... we want the scoop tomorrow Have a great time! |
Roger_Ramjet | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 04:59 pm  Thanks May--I bet we would have gotten there sooner or later in any event. This group is to smart not to have. <<Have a good date--are you back with us tonight??>> Vykin--how about some clam chowder with a buttery chard??? Sould like it would be yuuummers to me! Moon--what ya thinking?? You've been quiet |
Arreal | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 04:59 pm  I know. I guess I feel very isolated in here. This is only the second day. And I'm missing just being able to find someone on any thread and be able to talk and laugh or be silly. I find myself alone in here wandering from room to room looking for people or trying to have spontaneous conversations. It just isn't happening yet. At home, if I want to talk and it's late at night, I just dribble water on my sweety to wake him up. Sometimes I get whacked in the chin, <laughing> but he just thinks I'm being silly and contankerous. He doesn't get mad and judge me. Here I feel everything is judged. That's kind of unsettling. |
Moondance | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 05:04 pm  Arrealllllllllll we have a drink with your name on it! Roger will cook something for you to eat... he is very talented you know! |
Arreal | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 05:08 pm  Thanks Moon. A Colorado Bullpuppy would be most excellent. I'm cooking dinner tonight. I will head on in. Please all, stay out of the kitchen Please. |
Roger_Ramjet | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 05:16 pm  Arreal--That's great that your guy doesn't judge you. I think in too many cases that the closer a peron is, the more likely they are to judge! just been personal observations over the many years. I don't know if it will help to look at it in here this way--it's a game, and a score is kept. In order to create the score, evaluations are made about us and what we do. I hope more by what we do, since that defines who we are. I'm not taking it personally, as it is a game. I figure if I condcut myself in here the way I really am, then win lose or draw, I was evaluated for all the things that make me who I am. I couldn't ask for anything better!!!! Just MHO though, and it may not have any positve affect on helping you to feel better. If you ever want to just have a talk while we are in here, you are welcome to get me at any time of the day or night. It's the way I am on the outside, and it's the way I am in here. I can just listen if you want--although you have to say so first--by default I will try to solve problems unless told otherwise!! LOL hard Moon--Arreal said she wanted to fix haggis tonight. The prime rib will hold well till tomorrow, or for those less adventurous, I'd be happy to grill a prime rib slab for those folks. |
Talisker | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 05:23 pm  Hey you guys! Word up? How have you all been? |
Himay10ns | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 05:26 pm  Since everyone seems to be sitting outside, I have a question just for those BGs that are here. What do you think about those that have been sleeping all day?? Luke and Mantastic?? I think Luke has been pretty stressed out and Mantastic is so OLD. Do you think they are enjoying The Game or is this place just too much for them?? |
Roger_Ramjet | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 05:32 pm  Tali--hi--great to see you. We've been working on the challenge. Check out what questions we've asked, what the answers were, and what we've thought of so far. Being the jet-jockey, I/we hope you can give us some 1st hand experience here. Waht's been going on with you?? May--I'm not sure about Luke and Mantastic. <<I'm thinking that on a Saturday, they may have a real life compared to us!! LOL hard! Any idea whta's got Luke going if not just the day it is?? I know that when the week days come around, as busy as I will be at work, I won't be posting much during the day>>> <<<our take on the issue>>> (addressed to anyone who wants to respond) |
Arreal | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 05:35 pm  Thanks a whole bunch Roger. I appreciate your offer and may take you up on it. I know it is just a game. I'm not taking things to personal, just in my nature to worry occassionally, especially about other people. Oh, did you get your punch done? dinner is about to be served... |
Roger_Ramjet | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 05:41 pm  Arreal--I hope you do take me up on it if you wish to. I was serious about the ofer, or I wouldn't have made it. Hey, if it's your nature to be that way, then go for it. Don't do anything that will make it worse for you. We all have our little things we do, and always will!! Taking things personally lets you know your heart is warm at least. Advantages and disadvantages to just about everything. Punch is ready.....I didn't hear anyone wanting Prime Rib for fear of your dish, so it looks like we will all have haggis. |
Arreal | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 05:47 pm  Haggis is in the kitchen. Let me know what you think and I'll give you the recipe Roger. Thanks for the support to. (((Hug))) |
Roger_Ramjet | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 05:52 pm  <<<Heading into the kitchen to dish some haggis up and get some punch, I yel out to the folks outside with me>> "Hey everyone Arreal ahs made a dish that is new to me. Anyone up for an experiment in new foods???" Arreal--No problem o the support (((back at ya))) I bring my food and punch outside, sitting back down with my fellow BGs. It has a unique smell to it, and well it should--it's a unique food! I can hardly wait to dive into it. |
Arreal | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 06:01 pm  Hey all, what you think? Just finished cleaning up some of the kitchen. You did an awesome job on the punch. I love it. I had it for my wedding. Being a church wedding though, we had to substitute the wine with cranberry juice. I love it with the wine. Nummers. |
Roger_Ramjet | Saturday, October 07, 2000 - 06:03 pm  Hey Arreal, this is pretty good! A decent blend of flavors, and textures. The spices really work well together. I'll definitely take the recipe--<for real if you had one> <<I looked into this dish, and posted based on how I think I'd like it based on wht it's made with and how it's made>> The punch goes well with the haggis. I'll help with dishes to night! Seconds if there is enough left! What do the rest of you think of it??? |
