Fun! My dd does these "cyber-parties" on the fairy tale forum. I especially found their costume parties funny as they'd change their avatars for the night! HA!

"See" you all tomorrow then!!!!! Glad dd made some peanut butter kiss cookies! Maybe they'll last till tomorrow afternoon!

Snort!!!!!!!!

I'll have you know that dd and I baked IRL cookies today so I could road-test my recipe for the cyber-exchange tomorrow. I even took a photo. My menfolk are very happy about the cyber-exchange because they have many cookies to enjoy this evening!

[gasp]

My heart stopped! And the retreat hasn't even started!

Mel, if this is any indication of what you'll be "sharing" tomorrow I would like to be forewarned.

Okay, that is 8 pm for me. I think I can stop by. But I cannot promise any cookies since I am sort of laid up. Maybe I can motivate my dd to help me out a bit...

Oh MY....I was just thinking that I might kick back and watch P&P today as I am barely able to make a line from the computer to the couch after getting an awful cold that is now a lovely sinus infection. Then...to see Mr Darcy....that’s it....it is a better day now, 4 Real Retreat and Mr Darcy.....if you are going to be sick, might as well do it up right--right?? (any sniffing in a hankie with a red nose emoticon?)

My only regret is that I thought it was from 5 to 10, not 3 to 10, so I missed the first couple of hours. Rats! It was great fun sharing time with all of you...especially Colin Firth

We did it this past Friday, Leanne.      

But I think we will have another before too long!
