Catriona MacGregor Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 (edited) Cat and family have 3 pets, Dragh-a dog and Leanne-a cat and Aileen has a bunny. The cat had been found during one of Adam's capers. The bunny joined the family with the girls' arrival at Christmas '77. Will continue with any other notes needed to keep continuity Edited July 4, 2022 by Catriona MacGregor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catriona MacGregor Posted July 7, 2022 Author Share Posted July 7, 2022 Note to self: How in the ever loving did I forget Mary and remember Noni? And now that I remember, I miss the ditz, but reclaiming her would require Mulgrave andwhat hijinks could this (she'd be a mother by now if she hasn't lost the baby as she was pregnant at Brighton, per a thread) ding-dong get up to? No, get Cat set up before the comic relief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackguard Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 We are still discussing royalty moves and other NPC actions, as well as waiting for a boatload more recess summaries to be provided to us. Even the mod group has not completed our first submissions yet, so we are not blaming players. Apologies. Yes, let's get Cat established first, then we can think of ditzy amusement. We might even think about Cat having a ditzy servant that could add color to some of your posts, if you would like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catriona MacGregor Posted July 7, 2022 Author Share Posted July 7, 2022 Nah, nah, it's cool. I just totally forgot about how much fun she was, but no need to pull her back right now. Or ever. I don't know if I could even attempt some of those long winded stream-of-consciousness rambles she went on. I just totally forgot the ninny.

Catriona MacGregor Posted January 26, 2023 Author Share Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) Per Wikipedia: The Kingston Black is classed as a "bittersharp" in the standard classification of cider apples, being high in both tannin and acid.[2] The tree is strongly biennial in fruiting, and can be prone to common apple diseases. Its fruit is small, round in shape, yellow skinned with red streaks on the shade side of the fruit or dark red with dark purple streaks on the sunward side, and patches of grey russetting.[5] Baked goods using Apple cider https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/cinnamon-pear-rustic-tart/ https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/caramel-apple-strudel/ Edited January 26, 2023 by Catriona MacGregor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
