Chit-Chat: Ground control to Major Tom

[Wicked3DS]

Man, that sounds really good. I wish I had more dessert here now.

 

[Livewire]

A "friend" of mine actually baked me an apple pie (of all the things, lmao) the other day and hooooly **** it was actually really good.

 

[Pinkie-Dawn]

Happy Friday the 13th, everybody! I hope you'll survive Jason's onslaught.

 

[Sylphiel]

I actually didn't even realize it was a Friday the 13th today until someone mentioned it earlier.

Thinking of apple pies and stuff, I actually made an apple crumble the other week.
...I forgot to peel the apples beforehand, but it still came out really good.

Would make it again if I had more apples.

Bigelow makes a pumpkin spice tea, but it's a seasonal flavor so the stores don't always carry it. And they might have to special order it on a display shipper with a few other holiday flavors...like salted caramel tea which is the new flavor of the year. Everything's salted caramel now.

Apparently my stores don't, since I didn't see it there. :( Wonder if it's at their fancier store. Or Walmart. Then again, I was looking at teas at Walmart just the other week and saw nothing of that sort, so that's probably a bust as well.

Happy Friday the 13th, everybody! I hope you'll survive Jason's onslaught.

There was no onslaught here, but I did survive the unluckiest.

My god, but it did happen in Paris. Rest in peace.

 

[Hikamaru]

My god, but it did happen in Paris. Rest in peace.

Yes it is terrible. So many innocent lives lost.

 

[Pinkie-Dawn]

Thank goodness it wasn't Jason, since I'm pretty sure Friday the 13th has already past in Paris, but Muslim terrorists are just as bad. 100 dead hostages is both insane and sickening. My condolences to those who reside in Paris having any of their friends or families lost.

 

[Corrin]

Yeah, it's really horrible what happened :( then there was earthquakes in Japan and Mexico and bombings in Baghdad and Lebanon.
Crazy day.

re: friday the 13th

Aside from the terrible events that happened overseas (not just in France), I have not had bad luck at all.

 

[Limey-chan]

I had quite a good Friday 13th, bought myself a new jacket and upgraded to a new phone.

Awful, awful news about Paris. Thoughts are, of course, with family and loved ones of those involved.

 

[Mobile Tsk]

what cola trucks? oO

...there are cola trucks??

Of course someone has to bring the cola places!

 

[Sylphiel]

If those are here, I've never seen one in person. :T

Not fancied up like that, at least.

 

[TheFattestSnorlax]

Speaking of vehicle spotting, I once saw the Google Street View car here in Sydney. Now that's cool.

 

[Corrin]

You guys are lucky then, Those look really cool.
I know in this city at least they decorate the buses xD

 

[Tsutarja]

Nothing in my town gets decorated that's maintained by the city :( at least parking lots and private businesses decorate though!

 

[Wicked3DS]

There's a few decorations around where I am, but not a whole lot yet. I imagine there will be quite a few more this coming week.

 

[Honest]

Yay, I'm happy this thread is back. I didn't like Treehouse without it much honestly.

As for decorations, NYC is notorious for decorations. Personally, they can kind of get shoved in your teeth kind of obvious, but its still nice honestly.

 

[Corrin]

I like seeing everyone's decorations as we drive by, some people go all out and it's really nice to look at. And some stores have huge light decorations too.

 

[Ice1]

We're too busy preparing for Sinterklaas before we start putting up Christmas decorations. And even then, in my neighborhood, there usually isn't too much decorated.
