Round Table Revisited

And so Lord of the String said unto the peoples, "Go forth anew. Seek a land you can call your own."

The people saw it was good.

So, on the last day the people said their solemn goodbyes and began the long journey to the promised new land.

And so began the new land and its people were joyous!

Welcome, to the Return of the Round Table known as...

"Round Table Revisited" (RTR)

Re: Round Table Revisited

Hi Karen

 

At least your were rewarded for cleaning your son's bedroom - don't spend it all at once though lol

 

Did you have to go to a Christmas party today or am I mistaken?

 

Today I have re-learned the sheer delight of an afternoon nap with the breeze gently wafting through the front windows Smiley Happy

Re: Round Table Revisited

Pistachios, Laney.

 

I am going to do a dark chocolate bark with pistachios, marshmallow and glace cherries.  I also bought some red currants but I'm just eating them.  I hope I can get some more in a couple of days because they would look really pretty on the trifle with some chocolate curls maybe.

 

It's good when you are not having to organise the whole lunch because then you can muck around making goodies.

 

Karen, I would want a lot more pay than that to clean my sons rooms.  Gross.

Re: Round Table Revisited

I might go buy myself a magnum icecream, Laney.

My Christmas party is on Monday... hoping I can sneak out early so I can go do Christmas food shopping. I still haven't decided what kind of roast to cook. I don't want turkey this year, but I wonder if I bought a large chook if I can tell people it's a small turkey? Actually I'll probably end up getting beef or lamb, that's what I feel like. I'd love a roast pork but I start gagging when I remember it's a pig.

Re: Round Table Revisited

Something I just read took me back to my bridge playing days lol

 

Games were peppered with calls for 'Director', 'Director' when someone disagreed with the interpretation of an opposition call or play. So often the director was a sour-faced old biddy who, as the name suggested, was expected to direct the players based on his/her interpretations of the issue which the players would have to accept.

 

Fortunately, posters here do not have that authority and the sooner they realise it the better!

Re: Round Table Revisited

It sounds divine j*oono even though I rarely eat chocolate.  I could be sorely tempted to try your 'Bark'.  The glace cherries are a great addition and will certainly give a festive colour to it.

 

I used to make a 'stained glass window' cake and I just loved the colours and look of it - it tasted so yummy too.  I have not made one for a few years but your recipe made me think of it ...... I might just have to get the ingredients tomorrow lol

Re: Round Table Revisited

That sounds good Laney.  Someone once put the recipe for stained glass biscuits here one year.  They look great too.

Re: Round Table Revisited

If beef or lamb are what you feel like - then just have that!

 

Just make sure you do not leave it in the shopping trolley Smiley Wink

 

It is the company (and of course your Christmas tree) that matters and makes the day festive lol

 

I prefer chicken over turkey anyway and quite often serve it with cranberry sauce through the year lol

 

A magnum sounds like a good plan lol lol

Re: Round Table Revisited

I always like to give cooking tips, so here's one, Joono. Did u know Darrel Lea sells rocky road? Just buy two, chop them up and chuck into a bowl, then throw your berries on top and add cream 😄

Laney, re the card dictator...perhaps allow them the control they need, cos obviously they don't get it anywhere else?

I'm eating my Christmas nuts, so I'll have to buy more. I'm getting a taxi to come home from shopping cos the local driver always helps carry it inside lol. A lot of people hire her just for that reason. I am a good tipper, so I don't feel bad.

Re: Round Table Revisited

Hi Everyone , hope that you are enjoying your day.

Laney, my good mornings really aren't standard when the first time I post here is in the afternoon and I forget that it is afternoon lol.

Take care all

Re: Round Table Revisited

Ah but Iza - don't forget the 3 hour time difference.  It was still OUR morning when you posted (at least I think it was) so you are excused! 

 

You could always say you were working on WA time if you were challenged by anyone lol
