Show; Foodstuffs; Storybook 

Yesterday (Saturday) around 10:30 I drove with Carrie up to her folks' house where she and Lisa were doing a home jewelry show. I was making mimosas for the guests. Carrie's mom made a tonne of food, including seven-layer cookies (with and without nuts), meringue chocolate-chip cookies, roasted vegetables, mushrooms stuffed with cheese & garlic, pigs-in-a-blankets, cucumbers stuffed with salmon spread, a couple of other things, and deep-fried sauerkraut balls. I'd never even heard of that last thing before, but Jim assured me that they were on the menu at every wedding in the Ohio area. They were very tasty.

I stayed up there for about an hour after the show started, then came home. Geoff called me shortly thereafter and we hung out for a good while in the afternoon. I showed him the Woody Woodpecker segment of Destination Moon, as well as a couple of episodes of Clone High (he'd never seen the show before).

Then it was Fools Play, which was Storybook, one of our most popular formats. Being such, the audience was pizzacked! Taisha was doing the drawings during the show. My favorite drawing I did (that actually got included in the story) was of a giant drilling maching bursting out from under a city street. Michael insisted it was the Technodrome, even though it didn't look AT ALL like this:


Mine was a tube with a giant drill at one end. Kinda like the snakes in that one episode of Teen Titans.

Anyway, the show ran really long. It was like ten minutes until 11:00 by the time we started breaking down. I didn't go hang out with people, even though Sandy & Mathias were there, and I haven't seen them for a long time and therefore wanted to hang out with the boths of them.

However, before I left I played some Mario Kart DS versus Leah and two audience members. I just "happened" to have my DS with me. I hadn't played versus like that (only WFC online versus, which is a bit different). We played the Luigi's Mansion track, and I won. Then the connection dropped and I became more interested in hanging out with people than playing video games. Huh.

It turned out to be a rather good one-day show for Carrie. Plus, her mom let her take home a tonne of the foodstuffs.
