Thanksgiving 2015

Image
We celebrated Thanksgiving at our new home this year and it was such a pleasure. Spousal Unit's sister and Tara joined us, as well as Douglas. It was such a lovely evening. I'm just going to picture spam, so enjoy! As you can see, Tara is still terribly impressed with my picture taking.

November House Night

Image
Some time ago, Rosslyn, Camilla, and I decided to make our own household in the SCA. We have yet to officially register it, but we have begun doing monthly house nights. This November it was held at Rosslyn's house. Camilla, Rosslyn, and I all took over the kitchen. Douglas, Spousal Unit, and Camilla's SO sat at the table for a long while, but eventually we gave them something to do. The table was so pretty all set for the meal we were making. The guys in the living room where they had been banished (not really). They went out and played bacci ball outside while we worked. I finally handed off my phone to Spousal Unit to take pictures so I could focus on making the pasties. Rosslyn looked up recipes on her laptop since she couldn't eat gluten--we made special pasties for her and ensured no cross contamination. Smiles from the cooks! I made hot apple cider with fresh squeezed local apples.

SLC Evening With My Sister

A band my sister loved was in town in SLC, so she asked me to go with her to see them play and spend the day in SLC with her. We hit the City Creek Mall first. Obligatory selfie. Tara was less than amused. Later we did dinner at From Scratch, my favorite place. Tara took this selfie while we were waiting for the band to begin. I found these business cards in the bathroom stalls and was amused by it. And the band! Tara had a blast and they did have a beautiful, ethereal sound.

Flowers

Spousal Unit noticed I hadn't been doing well since the move and decided to surprise me with these beautiful flowers. He made me cry.

Knit Night Matchy-ness!

Just some fun accidental and unplanned randomness. Rosslyn and Donna ended up wearing matching outfits. And then pounced Kimberly.
