Persephone Emerald Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 I went to Starbucks inside Target yesterday & found I could get a small cup of hot chocolate if I bought a Grande size of something else on Saturdays & Sundays. Pet Delight: Drinking a warm cup of chocolate and a hot cup of Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai Latte while watching people walk by outside. I was also happy to buy the last stretchy headband that was exactly like the one I'd lost and to buy decent earphones for my phone for $ 10 at Best Buy. Another Pet Delight: Having a dream early this morning with a gorgeous landscape, sky and river with a natural swimming pool in it. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to be a resident of Bellisseria or maybe a partner of one. Maybe LL will have a Christmas sale for Premium accounts? @Patch Linden 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if you want driving practice in Bellisseria, a houseboat is not your best option. Here is the LM to the home of one of my alts ( http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Trampledon/133/20/23 ) and if you send me (privately) your actual SL name, I can add you to the permissions in the house and you can squat as long as you like, I think. Or, you can just visit and use the car rezzer out in front of the house. 😊 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmeliaJ08 Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Delight: it's Christmas fudge making week, I get a couple of hours every evening to stir a big pot of boiling sugar, butter and milk. I really enjoy it, listen to my favorite albums and the house smells great. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love Zhaoying Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Pet Delight: Restringed a missing/broken string on the acoustic Taishokoto, re-recorded it, so now I'm ready to move on to another instrument. Hoo-ahh! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleMe Jewell Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 We did not have turkey this past Thanksgiving, but were starting to run out in the freezer, so we decided to have turkey for Christmas dinner. Well, the next 2 days are supposed to suck, weather-wise, and my husband smokes the turkeys, so we are having our Christmas feast today. The smoker crisps up the skin to hold most of the juices in, so even the white meat ends up being juicy. I don't even like oven baked turkeys anymore. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love Zhaoying Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 (edited) Pet Delight: Recorded concert chimes. Finally rehung a note that I put off a long time, and moved my recording setup for the first time! ETA: And recorded the large brass bell, too!

Casidy Silvercloud Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 This week's delights were quite surprising and unexpected. The first one is seeing the thread still going, I appreciate all of your delights, immensely! No matter how big or small, a delight is a delight and I'm glad they're here! My second delight is something I received as a gift three years ago. It's a very special ornament. It is engraved with a name, a date, and has the heartbeat recording of a little life that never got to be. I've never hung that ornament up. In fact, I've only taken it out of the box three times since I got it. I did not appreciate it when I got it, probably for obvious reasons. I've never been adult enough to deal with the weight it carries since then, either. I'm still not, I might never be, but I decided I would try. So I did. It stayed on my tree for three days and I listened to it a couple of times before it got packed back away. It doesn't sound like much, but that's a whole lot of progress I wasn't expecting from myself. That's the delight part, I'm delighted I managed, even if my reaction is still anger. I'm also delighted that I've put it away. I have a whole year to decide if I want to take it back out again. I'm not very good with the holidays. I shut completely down until the winter break is over, which is what I'm going to do. I just wanted to read others' delights and figured I'd share one while I'm here. I hope everyone has a good week, whether you celebrate holidays or not. If you're celebrating for New Year, please be safe, make good choices, and enjoy your celebrations! If you're not, have a good week anyway, just because you should! 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InnerCity Elf Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 My recent delight was paying for someone's shopping the day before Christmas Eve. I noticed the girl behind me, probably a student, digging for her purse in her backpack and coming up blank. It was just a few things, so I offered to pay as a random Christmas gift from/for a atranger. She found some coins in her pocket then and wanted to give me at least those, but I waved it off and disappeared, a gift is a gift is a gift. I love seeing and doing such small kind gestures, especially in situations, where many people are in a hurry and stressed, some even hostile and just centered on themselves getting everything done for "the perfect Christmas", despite the season should foster the opposite, and such an opportunity doesn't present itself too often, so it's an affordable delight, and most probably for everyone involved, giver, reveiver, watchers, so, multiple delight effect, too 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hot chocolate and Baileys go well together. Bubble bath awaits. Cheers me dears! This reminds me of the friend of a friend who startled a couple of youths who had broken into his home, and upon their hasty exit discovered that they had left their haul of stuff they had stolen from other homes the same night behind. The neighbors got their power tools back, but the pound of weed was "never recovered", so to speak. Heh-heh. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love Zhaoying Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Pet Delight: Instead of working on music or my reflection probe experiments, I spent the day mostly working on scripting for my Basic-to-LSL parser. Today I worked on "Error Handling"! ON ERROR GOTO [label], ON ERROR GOTO 0 (disable error handler), ON ERROR RESUME NEXT, RAISERROR, ASSERT, RESUME [label], RESUME (next), Error Handlers, and.. STOP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marigold Devin Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Pet delight: West Somerset Railway are running an untimetabled "special" all the way from Bishops Lydeard to Minehead, a steam loco, goods carriages, and Winterlights. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marigold Devin Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Adding a new post because for some unknown reason am unable to edit the one I posted within the past hour.

Love Zhaoying Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Pet Delight: I finally recorded tablas today, separate Dayan and Bayan recordings. This was a real challenge, to make something close to the right sounds! I used drum mikes for the first time. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
