Lost party

[vilakins]

This is what I'm taking to the Lost finale party tonight.


Two mangos (which I found today), two paw-paws, two vicious hunting (well, kitchen) knives, and two packets of Dharma chocolate cookies. There's a DI serial number under each one using combinations of The Numbers. I was going to have a go at piping logos onto digestive biscuits but I decided this was a lot easier. We can have them with coffee from the ridiculously expensive espresso machine Greg's company bought.

Here are some very inventive Lost-themed cakes though.

I considered photoshopping (or GIMPing) my name onto this Oceanic flight ticket but we don't have a colour printer.

I'm not looking forward to getting there and back. It will be dark and wet and I haven't been to the new offices before. I don't like driving in the dark anyway, but get nervous when it's wet and I can't see any road markings. But it will be fun once I'm there.

Hope it goes well... love the cookies. :)

They're Choco-mints and Toffee-pops, and wrapped up well in A4. :-)

Well, it sounds like it will be a great gathering.

Drive carefully and give yourself plenty of time to get there!

I can't really; they'll all be waiting for me and I leave as soon as I have the episode. :-( But I will definitely be careful and not hurry.

I am watching the finale right now! (I stopped briefly to make some tea.) And despite my local ABC affiliate's best attempts to completely ruin it by plastering "breaking news" stuff all over the screen, I am enjoying it greatly. (The only thing missing is Dharma cookies!) I bet you will have a great time. :)

That's good to hear! I just hope I'm not too delayed waiting for the ep as I'm taking it there.

Having watched it all now, the only thing I'll say is that I'm interested to see what you think of it. :)

Have fun!

Yeah, well. It won't be till tomorrow night now. It took too long, even to get the first part, so we had the party without the Lost. I might have known after having such a crap day.

[astrogirl2.livejournal.com]

Aww. :(

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

We have now seen it this morning and I'm glad I didn't see it with the others (so to speak) because, dude, if I wanted to watch Ashes to Ashes, I would have. The first half was fun, but bloody hell, no real answers about the real world, just the made-up one. :-(

[astrogirl2.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I was wondering how you'd feel about that... I honestly can't quite figure out my own responses, although I think I'm actually okay with the lack of answers, at least for right now. It might bug me more later, when the fun of the fun part has worn off, I don't know.

*pats you comfortingly*

I replied on your post, but I'm going out now to mall fitness and breakfast with the others. In the group, that is. :-P

[astrogirl2.livejournal.com]

It's just as well that it's with the others, and not the Others. ;)

I hope it's a good time and gets the good exercise chemicals pumping and makes you feel better and stuff.

Looks like lots of fun!!

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

It didn't really turn out to be; see the post I'm about to put up. :-(

To use a Hurley-ism "Dude! Those rock!" The cookies are especially brilliant. Well done!

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

They were easy to do and had the most impact. :-)

[elle-winters.livejournal.com]

I whole heartedly approve of mangos and chocolate mint cookies and razor sharp knives =]

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

So did the the others there; they went down well. :-)

[vjezkova.livejournal.com]

This choice of yours is perfect! The knives and all, yes!
I hope you will have much fun!!!

Ah...the cookies are very inventive indeed:-)

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

So you watch Lost?

[vjezkova.livejournal.com]

No no, I began watching the series at the beginning but they stopped it for some time and when they went on, I missed several episodes and never returned to it. But I know what it is about because my brother watched it all.
