: : : There! That's much better than "No Messages Posted". The only thing that would make this morning any better is a Mohicanland coffee mug and a visit from the Puuuuummmmpkiiiiiin Fairy! I need a pumpkin...have a request for a "Carved Gnome".

: : stick a fork in him easily, remove from oven, let sit

: Doctor Mary,

: Actually, I prefer to carve up these gnomes a bit, stuff a fat beeswax candle in its mouth & let it sit on some Dutch stoop throughout the chilly Harvest Moon nights. Then, once All Hallow's Eve has passed, I like to burn them to dust. Wood Gnome ash ...

: Ashes to ashes, dust to dust ... it's a handy base for some damn good soap.

: That's my personal favorite heirloom receipt anyway.

: Lainey

: PS Doctor M, of course your Charlatan Cabin will be logistically situated in very close proximity to the Trading Post! You'll be needed for an occasional shake down.

Hmmm -- The Gnome Carabine must be in a stupor this morning.
He usually senses something afoot when he's being toasted,
roasted, stuffed or carved.

PPS: It's that "Charlatan" part, while euphonious, that might
be off-putting to potential clientele. "Cabin of The
Beneficent and Healing White Light" is so much more
accurate, don't you think?
