Back in 2006, kaleidoskope made a matching set of Severus and Remus in Santa hat icons. I've got the Severus half, but I'm missing the Remus half, which has Paul McGann as Remus. Does anyone happen to have it?
- the Severus half of the set |

Request: Holiday art/icons....

All right, last year, I made a call for Snupin holiday icons in about mid-December: Our Holiday Icon Round-Up from last year.
This year, I thought it would be nice if we could start earlier with fresh icons. First, anyone is welcome to snag any icon on the old post.
Second, if any artists (traditional medium or otherwise) would like to offer brand new holiday art to icon, or would like to make icons from holiday art they'd made in the past, please link your offerings here or make a new post to the community.
And there is a hidden third - if any artist would like to send me holiday art for iconing as gifts for snupin_santa participants only (usually given at the end of posting), I'll icon them (or you can!) and send them on to McKay. You can email me art for SS participants at: lupinsnape @ gmail.com - take out the spaces around the @. McKay will probably made a separate icon request as well, so this is just to add additional icons to the mix.
Are you starting to get excited for snupin_santa? WHEE!
love, lore |

Did I mention that today is the extension deadline for Snupin Santa and that 22 people still hadn't turned in their gift as of this morning? Yes, really. Twenty-two. I counted three times to make sure I hadn't miscounted due to excessive boggling.
As of this evening, lo these many hours later, one of those 22 people has turned in their gift, and two of those 22 people have asked for more time, because 2 1/2 months isn't enough. >.>

Chapter eight of Valet of Anize is up! Orphans, meteorites, and mine mysteries abound. You can find it here. Feedback welcome, as always!
btw, someone -- god, I've lost track of who, if it was you please tell me so I can credit you -- linked me to an article about organogenesis, which seems to imply that Carry's nuskin bandage may not be far off in our future.
Fascinating stuff, though I can't avoid thinking of it as wearing foreskins. |

Here's something I did for a Holiday exchange over at Watson's Woes on Livejournal. I'm rather proud of it.
Title: Friends Only Banner Author: [info]chibitoaster Characters: Holmes, Watson Rating: G Notes: For the Holiday Wishes - Extra Wish #2: I wish for ART: Winter - not Christmas, winter - themed Friends-only banner, blue/silver/white/grey/etc. color scheme if possible. Snow would be awesome. If using screencaps, Granada Watson(s) would be a plus.
I don't know exactly what size I ought to have made the banner. I hope you can resize it. If not, just let me know, and I'll do it. Hope you like! It was a lot of fun to do!! ^_^

MY MUM SENT ME PEAPOD.
She is the best mother I have! :D

Sourdough bread, olive oil, apples, a GIGANTIC TURKEY BREAST, my favourite hibiscus tea, stuffing, dalmatia fig spread (omg nom), two small pumpkins, and cookies.
Guys, I'm going to brine the hell out of that turkey breast. I can buy the cooler tomorrow and put the turkey in on Wednesday and cook it on Thursday. And then eat leftover turkey for the REST OF MY LIFE. I can even make apple-onion stuffing!
Also, I love the Jamaica Tease Co. Hibiscus Tea, but I find them very weird. The "Jamaica Tease" phrase is branded everywhere on the bottle, but if you read the label or go to the website they are very proud of the fact that they use only the finest Mexican hibiscus tea.
Maybe they get it from, you know, Jamaican Mexico? Like the Dutch East Indies.
The pot from Jamaican Mexico must be amazing.

My leg feels better this morning! And miraculously I am not hung over from last night. (Uh, Jean, I totally meant to email you but then I fell asleep. :/ )
So I just made the MOST DELICIOUS OMELETTE EVER.
Here's how you do it:
Fry some bacon and set the bacon aside. (This is the traditional start of every southern recipe ever.)
Into the bacon fat put chopped up leftover french fries and onion straws (like onion rings, only not rings) from last night's meal.
Fry until crispy!
Add two beaten eggs. Cook. Flip! Sprinkle with cheese and then cook some more.
Consider briefly photographing it for your blog before being so enticed by the omelette that you go NOM NOM NOM instead. With bacon.
The recipes tag on this post is very much in airquotes. "Recipes".

As a follow-up to yesterday's Fest Mod Drinking Game, Rosy suggested adding,
Take two drinks every time a participant doesn't meet the prompt.
I'd also add,
Take two drinks every time someone decides that fandom isn't fun anymore/they've got a "real life" now that's cooler than fandom/they're too busy for fandom/they've got a new SO and so they're dropping out of fandom less than two weeks after assignments have been sent out (you would think that would be rare, but actually, it happened in Snupin Santa both last year and this year).
In other news, Mr. T is a spokesman for World of Warcraft, and they just launched a new in-game item called a "Mohawk Grenade" (official game info with a link to a Mr. T promo commercial here. I have screen caps of my Blood Elf Death Knight meeting the legendary Mohawk and buying the grenades.
