The Frumpy Fairy Godmother isn't an idiot, she knows that wiping off the mouth of the bottle before taking a drink could be considered an insult, so she tips the bottle back for a larger (though still small) sip.

She blinks a little, but manages to keep from gasping and hands back the bottle.
"They're fine... squeezings, Trinity, thank you for sharing them. Did you ever pick out a new flannel shirt?"

Trinity · « **Reply #1121 on:** January 22, 2005, 09:38:38 AM »

"There now, ain't that good? ...And healthy too!!" Trinity lifts the bottle and pours deep into his gullet.

"What about mah shirt. don' you like it? I done had this shirt fer a looong time."

Delmonico · « **Reply #1122 on:** January 22, 2005, 10:06:27 AM »

A voice from the kitchen says, "toooooo long."

A voice from the outside door says, "That that's fer sure. Pick out a new one and burn that one. By the by, thar's eight inches of fresh snow on the ground." Slim closes the door and hangs his coat on the coat-chair. He sits on the chair, takes his snow boots off, and slips into his moccasins. "The herd is doing well this morning."

Seeing Slim, the Frumpy Fairy Godmother smiles widely. ( Not that he is her favorite or anything

) Then she looks over Trinity, and picks out a new flannel shirt to hand to him. "Go change."

Silver Creek Slim · « **Reply #1125 on:** January 22, 2005, 11:04:36 AM »

Slim smiles at Trinity, "Please!"

Trinity · « **Reply #1126 on:** January 22, 2005, 12:37:46 PM »

"Alright, alright! Ah jus' don' know what y'all got 'ginst mah shirt, but Ah'll put the flannel on" Trinity rises from the cot, takes the shirt from the FFG and sulks to his room.

With a loud thud, Trinity drops his old shirt and dons the new one and returns to the others. He walks into the room with his arms stiff out to the side complaining: "This shirt just don' feel right. What's wrong with it? ? ? ?"

Joyce (AnnieLee) · « **Reply #1127 on:** January 22, 2005, 01:06:40 PM »

The Frumpy Fairy Godmother blinks, then stares, then quickly turns her face away, shielding her eyes.

"The man has no pants on," she whispers.

Trinity · « **Reply #1128 on:** January 22, 2005, 01:34:48 PM »

"OOOOPS!!" Trinity shouts and runs back into his room. He emerges later with his pants on and securely fastened. "Sorry ma'am!"

Trinity · « **Reply #1129 on:** January 23, 2005, 06:27:29 PM »

Trinity has become aware that Delmonico is feeling under the weather. Get better soon, 'cause until then we'll have to eat more of Gophergrease's figs!

Joyce (AnnieLee) · « **Reply #1130 on:** January 23, 2005, 06:36:53 PM »

"Figs are good, but you can't make a diet out of them unless you want to spend all your time on the toilet. Does your shirt feel better now, Trinity?"

Trinity · « **Reply #1131 on:** January 23, 2005, 06:53:32 PM »

"Yes Ma'am, the shirt is feelin' better. After sleepin' in it, it ain' so stiff no more. Ah 'spect that it ain' gonna take but a few days more till it's feelin' as good as mah last one. Ah hope it ain' gonna slow mah workin' tomorry.

Joyce (AnnieLee) · « **Reply #1132 on:** January 23, 2005, 07:03:56 PM »

"If you'd like, I can take another of the new ones and wash it a few times, so it'd be soft when you first put it on."

With Del out of the kitchen due to his fall, Gopher Grease set to maken a rabbit stew. He asks every one how they like there corn bread. He likes his kinda sweat and a little wetter than some do.
With the stewed rabbit he thinks some pear cobbler mite just be good.

To the FFg he says "didnt meen nothing rude, just couldnt find them beds. Sorry for any ill fellings."

Delmonico · « **Reply #1134 on:** January 23, 2005, 08:07:05 PM »

Joyce (AnnieLee) · « **Reply #1136 on:** January 23, 2005, 08:16:37 PM »

"I like my cornbread a little sweet, too, and I'm not offended."

The Frumpy Fairy Godmother steps briefly into the kitchen to kiss GopherGrease on the cheek.

"Might be best to cook up something for Delmonico, he's already full of it, we don't want him to get worse."

( That sounds a lot like the fruitcake I made from Forty Rod's and Singing Bear's recipe today, but instead of figs, it has dried pineapple and dried mango in it. )

gophergrease · « **Reply #1139 on:** January 23, 2005, 09:01:28 PM »

Yes its basic fruitcake type recipe. How did yours come out? good I hope.
