How are you spending the special day tomorrow?

[kimmerspixelated]

I am going to a very special meditation and documentary viewing with some great people.

[BlueIris]

1. Another vet trip. These must be some special kittens we have with us.

They are turning out great--very sweet and friendly. Totally housebroken by the second day indoors. I'm a bit worried about them since they don't have the greatest astrology (born under a Moon-Pluto opposition, I think.) So I am interested to note that they have their next vaccination on 11/11.

[rucognizant]

36. I went to the beach........

to do Reiki at 11:00 AM..............There was no beach, the tide was high......so I sat in my car ( it was chilly and raining a bit...........thought about Neptune & Chiron going direct the other day.............meditated on
the wave action.....pretty vigorous.........

[Howler]

38. I'm so jealous...

Youve got a beach to go too. I just love the ocean.:)

[GliderGuider]

2. Gazing into the eyes of my beloved.

All day... :hug:

[kimmerspixelated]

8. Oh, Man o man...I like that!

Love....beats ANY OTHER PLANS!

Wowzie woozie Zingy...

Plus every other wild thing I can think of!

You Go, Girl!

[Howler]

3. Going shopping for

Holiday candy.
Gotta have a little chocolate in your holiday stockings.

[Kookaburra]

4. Mmmmm -- chocolate

I love me some dark chocolate oranges.

[Howler]

5. Now your talkin Kookaburra. YUM! n/t

n/t

[kimmerspixelated]

10. I love dark, organic choc in general. Never had orange

Sounds wonderful. Sluuuuurp!

[kimmerspixelated]

9. But, but, but

it's not even Turkey Day Yet! HAHAHAHAHAHA

[Howler]

19. Well Yeah.

I don't go out shopping (Expect for food supplies) after Thanksgiving. There are just Too many people to thoroughly enjoy the experience.

[kentauros]

14. I already did my chocolate shopping:

From King Arthur Flour

1 - ESPRESSO POWDER 3 OZ
1 - MERCKENS WHITE CHOCOLATE BAR 2#
1 - MERCKENS MILK CHOCOLATE BAR 2#
2 - MERCKENS DARK (BITTERSWEET) CHOC BAR 2#
1 - SCHOKINAG EXTREME BITTERSWEET CHIPS 1#

Yeah, that's nine (9) pounds of chocolate! }(
(I'll be making truffles.)




look at this chocolate site: http://www.chocosphere.com

[Howler]

20. OHHHHHHHHHHH! Drool.....

I want to come to your house to eat Kentauros.

[kentauros]

23. My girlfriend and I were talking about this last night.

We both feel we'll eat better (as in more nutritiously) once she's moved here, and taking advantage of my cooking/baking skills and cookbook collection :D

By the way, truffles are incredibly easy to make, and really only require three ingredients, with the third (cocoa) used only for a coating. The rest is simply melted chocolate and cream in a one-to-one ratio. The only drawback is that it's messy. I'm going to try to get my camera to take a series of shots automatically while I make them so y'all can see what it's like :)

[Howler]

24. Well I want to eat better....

Taking advatage of your cooking/baking skills and cookbooks too!LOL!
I would like seeing pictures of the truffle process very much! :bounce:

[kentauros]

25. I have some photos from a couple of years ago,

but only of the mostly finished products:










As you can see, the milk and white chocolates will be used primarily for coatings. Someone suggested using them as fillings, but I will have to experiment with that...

[Howler]

27. YUM YUM!!!!!

Those look fabulously delicious.:9 :applause:

[rucognizant]

35. Gee...........

I shaped the truffle centers and then dipped them in Merkin Dark melted. But I also love to just dip, nuts, glazed pineapple, apricots, & pretzels in chocolate, dk mlk & white........... My favorite chocolate mint patties. Tastes like a different food group than any commercially made ones.
Oh I just noticed from King Arthur flour...Is that how you buy the ingredients? I used to have a shop with those supplies near e in NJ. Now I have to go all the way to Bangor 65 miles to get Merkin CHocolate.
Those were the days when the young ADULT KIDS USED TO COME FOR HOLIDAY DINNERS. NOW ALL MY FRIE NEDS ARE OLD WITH DIETARY RESTRICTIONS.......NO DIPPING FOR ME..............

[MorningGlow]

6. Hangin' with my kid

School holiday. :shrug:

[japple]

7. Like Blue Iris--transporting cats, although not to the vet. They

are 4 siamese kittens who will be going from a high kill animal shelter into a rescue group!

[kimmerspixelated]

11. Bless you, bless you and those

babies . We had siamese kitties when I was a kid. Bred them and sold them for 5.oo ea. (back in the stone age)

[teenagebambam]

12. Driving to South Carolina

to see some dear friends. Listening to kitschy Christmas music the whole trip, if I get my way. Which I usually do :)

[kentauros]

13. I can do a little bit of silent meditation during lunch tomorrow,

but will have to wait until tomorrow night to do a good toning meditation at 11:11pm :)

I'll be going here to participate: http://www.templeofsacredsound.org

[Tumbulu]

15. I hope to be bringing my very lonely old horse to a barn

for the winter. A place that will have both a stall that she can go into in a storm and neighbor horses that she can interact with. Here she only has a lean to with a roof and sheep- no other horses. And it gets terribly muddy here at times. This place also has a long paddock so that she can walk around and the fencing appears safe. The feed seems good and I have been saving money and looking and looking for a place that she would be happy being in and that I could afford for such a long time now.

I am hoping that she will be happy there and that I will also get the courage to ride her a little bit more again myself.

It is a beginning of something special from my past. This horse came into my life when she was young, I sold her, but she was given back to me when she became lame. I have nursed her along for almost four years now but feeling very very terrible about her being the only horse here and also increasingly distressed about the muddy winters and the way the barn that I do have floods.

But it costs a lot of money to board a horse at a place....and so it has taken me a long time to figure out how to do it.

But tomorrow I hope to move her there. If not tomorrow, sometime over the weekend.

[Howler]

21. I hope the Horse move goes well for the both of you

Tumbulu.:hug:

[Tumbulu]

34. Thank you Howler

It looks as though ti will be tomorrow as it is raining here today, but I am excited and hopeful.

[Howler]

37. Me Too!

Please let us know all the details when she gets to the new stables and her reaction to the other horses.:bounce:

[Tumbulu]

42. Oh my goodness- she thought that she went to heaven

and so did I. She has two geldings to nuzzle and interact with, one on each side of her. Right away the conversations began. She has a roomy wonderful stall with a hay rack UP OFF THE GROUND that has clean shavings.....oh heavens. She was so happy, she kept walking around going in and out of the stall and talking with the guys and she seemed to have forgotten all about me and humans entirely. She was just inhaling horse and filling herself up with the wonder of being with her own kind after so very long. I am so grateful that I sold enough yarn to be able to spring for this.

It was very hard for me to leave- you see I fuss over her all the time here...and I am clearly quite attached to her.

The young woman who transported her was thrilled as well - she said that her horses would be going nuts being in a new place, but our mare was just completely calm.

I was worried that she would behave strangely with the other horses, but no, she was just happy happy happy.

Thanks for asking Howler. I am so relieved that she is there safely and settling in. I will go tomorrow and see how she is doing first thing.

I am so grateful that finally I could do this for her.

[Howler]

43. aHHHHHH!

I'm so glad she made new horsey friends so fast!!!! :)
It sounds like you provided a WONDERFUL situation for her Tumbulu!!!!
YAY!!!!! All your hard work and love as payed off for you and your baby!
Life doesnt get any better then that!
Congratulations.
Tumbulu,do you have any pictures you could post of your horse?:hug: :pals: :yourock: :woohoo: :applause: :fistbump: :headbang: :loveya: :hi: :bounce: :toast:

[Tsiyu]

16. Figuring out how to keep the power on

Things are looking up, but not in time for disconnection dates lol

I did get a kick out of "Your power will be disconnected on 11-11-11"

There was just something amazingly hilarious about that....

[kimmerspixelated]

17. Love and light

literally to you..

[kentauros]

18. I second that!

I'll use my little bit of quiet time this morning sending Love and Light your way, Tsiyu :hug:

[Tumbulu]

28. I third it

loe and light

[Tsiyu]

32. Thank you and also

kentauros and Tumbulu :grouphug:


some friends loaned me the money...we're having dinner later. Waiting on a check but I think today's a holiday so I'll wait another day....


Thanks for the light vibes! It's really good to have heat and water and computer!

Happy 11/11/11 to everyone including old horses

and I wish I had some of those truffles above if you'd all work on that next lol

[Howler]

22. Sending thoughts of prosperity and abundance your

[Tsiyu]

33. Thank you cuz it worked Howler

Now, about kentauros' truffles.....:P

[Howler]

39. I'm tellin ya those truffles look divine.

So glad the lights will be coming back on Tsiyu.:)

[Tsiyu]

40. I luvs me some truffles

and no worries on the lights. We are members of a rural co-op and they are sweet and will try to work with you before they resort to turning off the juice. SO I didn't lose a drop of light!

Their rates are real good, too.

Hope your saturday is wonderful. I'm gonna go help a disabled buddy, and hold my four-month-old adopted grandbaby, and play some git-fiddle and consider attending a porch party to see some musicians I've been missing. But it's kinda chilly so I'm thinking I may not want to take the guitar out. All my bangabout guitars are on loan...


Have a swell day Howler!!!!!

[Howler]

41. You Too Tsiyu!

It sounds like wonderful day you have planned !
Go forth and thoroughly conquer fun ! :)

[NuttyFluffers]

[findrskeep]

29. I'm participating a sound healing/energy clearing/chanting

event tonight and debuting my RAW KALE CHIPS along with my Consciousness Coaching and psychic readings!! We're expecting a lot of people so hopefully I'll get some customers! Check them out at HighVibeCuisine and also on highvibrationalliving where there are other raw food offerings but that part of the site is still under construction. My next step is making the everything available for purchase through my website. My goal is to finish it this weekend, if all goes as planned!

Happy 11.11.11 everyone! :party:

[lildreamer316]

30. I plead the fifth.

:evilgrin:

Actually, most of the time it will be chilling on the couch; letting my son enjoy his day off. But later on.. :evilgrin:

I do plan on spending some time in meditation, of several different sorts. LOL. Energies will be in flux.

[LWolf]
