    An Orc!

    An Orc is one of the minions of the evil Sauron in the Lord of the Rings books.

    We adopted him as a mascot, he was one of Mario's friends and cohorts!

    Mario's cohorts?

    More like he was Mario's favorite torture subject. We had to get batteries for the remote on a frequent basis while Mario was running around the bar.

    His main jobs are stacking firewood, getting firewood, and moving around the seement mixer when we take the bar mobile!

    No baby orcs, please. Those collars are EXPENSIVE!!!!

    Speaking of blessings, I'm trying to figure out who to share my Christmas present from my wife with.

    Being that this is a virtual bar, and I don't actually have to open the package to share, (I'd love to open it just to sniff, re-seal it and save it for later) I'll throw a pot of Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee together to share with PT.

    Mmmmm, that coffee smells good! Any gingerbread Christmas chickens to go with that?

    We'll have the gingerbread chickens ready later. (Something to be said for fresh out of the oven gingerbread cookies!)

    That explains it. Believe it or not, I've not read Lord of the Rings. Just not into it. Now I'm probably going to be dubbed "Lady of the Clueless" but who's Mario?

    Mario was Trayi52's monkey, who also took up residence in our virtual bar.

    Make that "Ladies of the Clueless", as I was totally lost on Orc and Mario also! I guess I lead a sheltered life for an old broad!!!

    That said - I could go for some medium hot chilli and corn bread. Who's up to cooking?
