Me too hon. My fav vampward. I squeeled in the airport this morning with the Epi turned multiples.

Hey RDMickey! How's it going! 

Now, I've been trying to find a way to make this Twific related because I'm always off topic, but I can only think of one liquid that is often described in Twilight fanfic as thick, creamy and delicious, and THAT sure isn't eggnog! 

So after our little chat this morning and my promise to make Eggnog Icecream, I found Martha Stewart's Eggnog recipe (because everything Martha does is awesome, and everything thing she does with alcohol is even more awesome!), and merged it with my famous No Churn Margarita Icecream recipe (that I stole from Nigella Lawson), then I ducked down to the shops, and I now have a container of  something that smells and tastes delicious in the freezer. I've attached the recipe for any other brave souls - just remember this is the first time I've tried it and it will likely need tweaking.

I still can't imagine drinking too much of it on a hot day, but it really does taste very good - thank you for broadening my horizons, Ella!

I'm a little worried that it won't freeze (it has a lot of bourbon, rum and cognac in it) but if it doesn't, we'll drink it! I have friends coming over for dinner tonight - they're used to being my guinea pigs. We're having Jalapeno & Bacon Poppers (cooked on the BBQ), Thai Beef Salad (also on the BBQ) and (hopefully!) Eggnog Icecream  - how very multicultural!

Back to my endeavour to be ON topic, here is a link to an Eggnog related o/s: Warning - It's Jasper and Edward...and eggnog!

Fanfiction confessions: I've never read Clipped Wings and Inked Armour, I regularly skip 3-5 chapters at a time if I'm bored with a story and I thought The Office was boring. I feel much better now 

Frontline updated! Not that I understood half of it, but it's only 2 chapters from completion now so there'll be answers soon.

You need to say three Hail Robs.

You need to say three Hail Robs.

All part of my daily routine anyway, I usually take the time between brushing my teeth and making my tea to do so 


Big age differences set me on edge only when Bella is <~20 or so. Otherwise they don't bother me too much as Bella's usually a librarian type who's always been an adult blahblah.

I agree sometimes I don't give a crap about the age differences... but this Bella is just so immature... Gawd it drives me crazy, no matter if it's FF there is no way a 31 year old would put up with this crap.

I agree. I read it, but I didn't care for it to save a copy.
And the last couple of chapters, plot wise, angst for the sake of angst.

I agree 

I liked the beginning, perused the middle cause there was a lot of repetitive plot and skimmed the end. Won't be re reading that one.

Mmmm I've been wanting to read this one but I guess I'll put it on hold for a while longer... I hate it when a fic gets repetitive, for me is a cause to flounce

I have just noticed that the status of fics (complete/in progress) is now on the title/cover page when I download from Flagfic. Is this new or have I been reading with my eyes closed again? 

It's new

Sigh....another on my TBR list gets pushed down to the "When I'm desperate" section LOL!

A lot of times with these fics, I see it rec'd, read the first chapter, put it on follow because I don't know how good the writer is about updating, and read it when it's complete. But all I hear are bad things and the little bit I read? Doesn't make me like Bella much 

Oh well, there are still a lot of stories out there.  Including CW&IA, which I also have not read.  I'm not usually big on tattoos, but lately? Adam Levine from Maroon 5 is hot & he has a lot of tattoos....I guess they aren't so bad 

CW&IA is a really good read. Long and lots of heartfail but I love this broken Edward and Bella.

Wild Child was good but I was getting pissed at the same thing over and over. I get the behaviour and age but I mean really *sighs* ON the upside she updated every Thursday and Sunday, not that it matters cause it's complete 

Hey, I got asked to find that story and I know it but I don't remember title or author and I don't find it! It drives me crazy!

Edward Bella story - One part in the story that sticks out the most to me is a charity event for Halloween that Bella is asked to attend with Edward where she meets his family for the first time. Her gay best friend who I believe is Jake but I might be wrong creates her a goddess costume for the party. Later on when Christmas comes around Jake and Alice kick Bella and Edward out of their apartment while they decorate it for Christmas. I think Edward decides his gift for Bella is a bakery?

Does anyone recognize this?

And I put in my own all time lost story, perhaps you Ladies know it, but I'm pretty hopeless... 

Summary (as far as I remember): It's around 1918. Bella is a vampire, being changed by Carlisle ages ago, living with him like siblings ever since. Now Esme is with them too and they live in Chicago. Their neighbors are the Masens and she falls in love with their son, Edward. They get married secretly (he still hasn't figured out what she is). The flu strikes and Edward gets sick. He gets changed by Carlisle and Carlisle tells Bella he didn't survive the change. The story starts years later, Alice has joined the family and asks Bella to tell her lovestory. The story is told in flashbacks until Bella told her story and then they hear they get visitors from Alaska. One is Edward, who survived the change but lost his memories and left Carlisle after freaking out about being a monster...

I read this on FF.net about a year ago, I think it was my first Fanfiction in English...
