[meta] Holiday Spirit

We took some holiday photos last week. We’ll have those ready soon, but for now, a few candid shots…

The surprising thing to me (not) was that we were the only ones at Guardian Games wearing Santa hats!

You’d think those 40K guys would be all over the Holiday thing, right?

We couldn’t resist putting a hat on Mr. Orbius beholder himself.

And then, in the middle of gameplay……

We needed a Jellybelly break:

These are “Soda Shop” flavored ones.

The Dr. Pepper flavor was good!

Treats!

I hated missing last week. I’ll never know the thrill of offing the Easter Bunny. I am quite happy that Indira’s second cousin was a good healer (thanks to Lucas!) If someone had died, I woulda felt terrible.

I’m making rice krispie treats for Wednesday’s game. I threatened to make them for Angel’s birthday only to find I didn’t have marshmallows. This time I have all the necessary spell components!

Rice krispie treats maybe not the best gaming food — sticky and gooey! But they taste so good. And they’re fortified with vitamins and minerals so we’ll be healthy gamers.

What's a Gaming Session Without Food?

We’ve been playing together for about a year and a half and in that time, we’ve developed some traditions. Some one dies, we eat chocolate. Sometimes there’s lots of chocolate.

It’s not all about sweets, though. Angel sells these great jalapeno Cheetos. Best. Cheetos. Ever.

We try to do birthday treats whenever we remember. Angel’s birthday is tomorrow. I have banana bread in the oven now.

It’s maybe not too appetizing now, but wait until it’s fully baked! Rice Krispie treats are another favorite, but I only have half a bag of marshmallows, so no-go, at least for tonight.

Nonsticky foods like animal cookies are best, however, so we don’t leave fingerprints on the DMG.

Sometimes we just have to use extra napkins because messy is where it’s at. Karla made this amazing castle cake once.

I wish it was a better picture — this creation deserves a better photographer. Chocolate drawbridge, gummy fishes, gummy guards (I think this was our Kua Toa phase), chocolate cake castle with…… wait for it ….. caramel treasure inside. My god, it was good cake.

You’ve waited patiently — here’s the banana bread:
