Since the rings use smells a lot, a drink which is varied on that account should seduce them better than a drink like vodka, which is a lot closer to just alcohol.

From http://www.webtender.com/db/ingred/358: The classic Greek drink Ouzo is made from a precise combination of pressed grapes and herbs and berries including aniseed, licorice, mint, wintergreen, fennel and hazelnut.

Anybody else getting dressed up in the next few days? Tonight, in fact - once again going as a 14th century lady. I've gotten a _lot_ of milage out of this dress: initially sewn for SCA events, I've used it for Halloween and Christmas rides (helmet covered with black crepe for the former, ringed with a wreath for the latter). It's a bit awkward to handle all that material and the reins, but the looks we get as we trot ringing down the trail (one _has_ to have sleigh bells for Christmas!) are worth it. :D Fake British Accent Maru __ Do you Yahoo!?

Anybody else getting dressed up in the next few days? Well, if Sammy will tolerate being put in a Tigger outfit (no mask, just pants and a top with a hood), he'll be Tigger. (He likes orange. I'd have gotten him a pumkin outfit if I could have found one in his size after I decided I *would* get something to dress him in for Halloween.) I have an assortment of black dresses to choose from, and managed to get a plain black pointed cap, so I get to answer the door to trick-or-treaters dressed as a duck^H^H^H^Hwitch.

RE: Hallowe'en
De : Julia Thompson [mailto:julia;zurg.net] Can you do some sort of sideways trap-door for your hand to go out? You could grab the glass that way, and then drink inside the stack. That could be an idea. I was thinking to have an arms torus made out of stuffed cloth which would mean that my arms would always be out. Your idea would make things easier.
