Oh yes,I remember your stonings well...

I love a good stoning.

Oh you're back, are you? Indeed, I thought I saw an old buzzard circling overhead. Not to mention the distinct whiff of maryhoowana that usually accompanies your visits to these most GODLY of forums.

Shoo, demoness!

Re: Have You started collecting stones?

I wonder if we should do a themed buffet, with all the food made to resemble stones and rocks?

There could be round plum puddings, big cheese balls rolled in crushed walnuts, pate and meatloaf shaped like bricks, "butter boulders", etc.

Discuss ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

That is a great idea!

Oh Mistress Cookie!

I have a WONDERFUL recipe for Rock Cakes, which would make for a perfect addition to your fabulous idea!

Oh... gosh.. we could even make some lovely fondant designs (to resemble stoning buckets) and fill them with rock candy, or even ... rocky road!

Old fashioned licorice toffee looks like lumps of coal.

With a bit of whiskey mixed with it!

Yes Brother it does! However I am yet to find a good recipe for it so that I can make it from scratch. Perhaps your good wife has one in her fount of recipes she would be willing to share, or perhaps better, make some herself?

Speaking of your wife, I have not seen her around at all lately, or at least since the last fishing trip you were on.. is all well?

In a few weeks we will have the festival! July 17th people!

Re: Have You started collecting stones?

Why are you having a stoning festival to mark the feast day of a Catholic virgin saint?

St. Marcellina

The only sister of St. Ambrose of Milan, b. about 330-5; d. about 398. She was older than St. Ambrose, and was born most probably at Trier, where her father resided as praefectus praetorio Galliarum. Even before her father's death she went to Rome, the home of her family, and, before her mother's arrival at the capital with her two sons, had already forsaken the world, elected to live a life of Christian virginity, and devoted herself to the practice of piety and asceticism. On Christmas Day, probably in 353, she received the veil of consecrated virginity from the hand of Pope Liberius. The advice, which the pope addressed to her on this occasion, has been preserved by St. Ambrose (De virginibus, III, i-iii), especially emphasized being the obligations of Christian virgins to preserve virginal purity. After Ambrose had become Bishop of Milan (374), he summoned his sister thither, and found in her a zealous assistant in fostering and extending the ascetic life among the maidens of Milan. To her Ambrose dedicated his work on virginity, written in 377 ("Libri III de virginibus ad Marcellinam" in P.L. XVI, 187-232). Marcellina survived her brother, and died in 398 or shortly afterwards. She also was buried in the crypt under the altar of the Ambrosian Basilica, and was honoured as a saint. Her feast is celebrated on 17 July.

Re: Have You started collecting stones?

I thought you where with him yesterday, I wonder who... never mind. I guess the house is coming along , foundation is done and the lumber trucks are coming every day.

After what happened a couple of months back, I'm not even going to ask.

It's just such a pain to board the dogs, get a sitter for the kids, etc. Also I have to be here in case something comes through on this end.

I hate moving.

Mrs. P.
I am sorry that I can not ask my wife for the recipe as she was killed last year. She was taking my old dog Beau to the vets and was driving her Toyota. Her throttle stuck wide open and she plowed into a semi tractor trailer, both her and Beau died as a result of the accident.Even though it has been over 6 months since the accident I still get choked up when I think about it. I just can't seem to be able to get over losing Beau that way.

Oh Brother Aim, I am so sorry to hear about poor Beau. It is very difficult to let go a friend you have loved so much.

Did your wife happen to leave a recipe book by chance though.. and perhaps some Tupperware? I am sure the LOL's could put it to good use, especially with the Stonefest so close!

Next time I am passing the old homestead in Natchez Mississippi I will rummage through her box of stuff in the attic and I will look for you.Presently I am traveling through North Carolina toward Virginia. Right now my plans are to spend the 4th of July weekend in the Newport News area protesting a new abortion clinic that has opened just outside the gates of the Naval yard there.Next week I will start my drive toward Freehold for the Stoning Festival. As you can see I have allowed a couple of extra days in case I am arrested during our picketing the clinic, if that doesn't happen I should be able to swing by the house and check for those recipes.

Sister, Brother James Dewitt asked me to contact you. I am in Freehold with my security team ramping up for the Stoning Festival. I am conducting interviews with some members of the Chicago Hell's Angles a Men's club that will be helping with crowd control.
If you would like me to look into the matter for you, it would be my pleasure.

Thank you Brother Diamond. Part of me wants to know, and the other part of me says to let sleeping dogs lie. So I'm not really sure what to do.

I'll be in Freehold tomorrow morning. Has my first obsidian cargo arrived yet?

It arrived in New York Monday night. As of this morning 17 semis from Hutchins trucking are on the way. They will arrive Friday early AM.

Little Sister I hope you don't mind that I contacted Sam. Its just that Seth has not stayed in my home at all, He is at a Motel 6. He left me with the house plans and asked if I would oversee the project. I think maybe you should come down as soon as possible, I cant get a hold of him, and the contractor has a few questions. The home is 3500 sq feet with 2 small bedrooms and a den/ office of 1800 sq feet. The Den has its own private bath and a exercise room. The bedrooms are 8'x 8' with another small bathroom and the plans call for a 8'x8' kitchen. Is that what you want?

Wait what? That's smaller than our current 1979 cookie cutter house (well my area anyway). Brother Diamond could you please look into what's happening.

Brother Dewitt, is it too late to change things? I'll be travelling down tomorrow. Now that school is out here I have a friends daughter that can do some live-in baby/house sitting.
