Fakesgiving!

At least for this camper, Thanksgiving isn't always that much fun. With family tensions running high, the opportunity to be reflective and thankful with I have is often missed. So this year, I decided to gather my friends and some of theirs round to celebrate Fakesgiving. It was a fun night, culminating in a women of osageland dance party to the hits of the 80s/90s and classical music. I eventually went to bed, but I believe Abigail and Andrea were raging on to "Noting Compares to You."

Sandy is mean AGAIN!

Hurricane Sandy hit the east coast two weeks ago, followed by a Nor' easter, and the power was [still?] out on Baltimore Avenue when the ladies of Osageland hit the streets....

It was good times! Good, candle-lit times!

With our new housemate Abigail Weathers in tow, there was much discussion of pressing house issues--1 ply versus 3 ply, how many osagelanders it takes to change a light bulb, etc. With business out of the way, we discussed our various exotic food-adventures which included spam-and-pea-fried rice to the tune of a Titanic rerun, played on one of those TV/VCR combo machines in a remote corner of Chica. On the other side of the world, Abby visited a Indian-run Chinese restaurant in Syria, where she got a haunting bollywood tune stuck in her head. But we were on a culinary adventure right there and then. Andrea had to use her camera to see the food....

Speaking of food adventures, it's about time I [randomly] post an image of the ice cream sundae we ate back in September:

Expect more random posts of Osageland past in the near future!!!
