Gotta get us some of those

Yesterday, lysana posted a link to an article about colored bubbles. The bubbles will reportedly be available in February, and will come in an assortment of colors that will stain for about half an hour, then disappear (like disappearing ink, but slower).

Some time ago, our household was all about the idea of divination/art by paintball-- have a group armed with paintball markers in various colors and dressed all in whites go about and shoot the proverbial shit out of one another, and then attempt to read the marks on the clothes. This sounded like a good idea, but was kiboshed due to the fact that nobody wanted to waste their perfectly good white clothes on it.

Using the disappearing bubbles instead of paintballs would allow us to overcome that particular entry barrier, as well as the unspoken barrier of "yeah, but that would hurt!". It would make us have to read the omens much quicker, but hey. Everything has its downsides.

EDIT: Also, in unrelated news: Godiva chocolate pecan tarts. These might approach the level of glory that is my dixie pie, as the recipe is quite similar.

Yet again Gift Exchange

This is actually a reply to 8elements, but LJ ate her comment, and it seems like the sort of thing people might generally want to know, so here goes.

When you send your gift to your recipient, you can tell them who it's from. We talked about doing a secret-pal sort of thing, which we may do later, but this isn't it. Go ahead and tell them who you are if you want.
