I am headed out to brunch this morning with some friends. |

Baldur, I have always wanted to ask you out of curiosity. I've seen you writing a lot about food and recipes. Do you work as a professional chef or is it just a hobby? |

Polenta, not to butt in to your question to Baldur, but I am aware from way back that he is a trained cook, perhaps a chef, and has done that for a living in the past. I love hearing about what he cooks, too. |

Now I wonder to what Baldur does for a living! Funny but I have never wondered that before!lol He never does say......"What a hard day I had at work today".......Hmmmm. Perhaps if Baldur does work what he does on his time off is way more interesting! I know that is the case for me and my work. But I would like to know if you do work Baldur where oh where do you find all your energy to do all the wonderful things you share with us? |

I think Baldur has what's known as joie de vivre, or a hearty enjoyment of life. He finds joy in pleasures both simple and complex, and I for one love hearing of his many endeavors. I remember his tale of cleaning the crud that falls between the stove and counter--it takes an exceptional person to make that interesting!!! |

I believe Baldur is between jobs at the moment. I remember him saying he enjoyed jobs where he could do physical labour but that he loathed desk jobs, it seems whenever he gets a lovely job moving boxes or stocking shelves or whatnot his employer eventually finds out what an erudite and intelligent person he is and decides (against all Baldur's protests of being happy in his current position) that Baldur really needs to be doing something that requires him to sit at a desk all day and shuffle papers or something horribly boring which inevitably leads to Baldur leaving in disgust. |

I thought I'd share a little Red Deer Rambling from my weekend. This past Sat. my sweetie and I went to the Taboo, Naughty but Nice Sex show here in town. It's been running annually for 4 or 5 years but this was the first time I've gotten my nerve up to go to it. It's basically like the Womans show but with less Mary Kay dealers and way more sex toys and lingerie. It was an interesting experience. You must be 18 to enter (sigh, I never get ID'ed anymore) so it's pretty much anything goes in there. They even had a body painting booth so it was not unusual to see woman (and a couple guys) walking around naked above the belt but for some very fancy artwork. I must say the paint did cover them very well but you certainly do find yourself looking to see if you can see anything. We didn't go for anything of the freaky nature but we did get a set of eco-friendly sheets ($45 buck for a full set of Queen sheets, you just can't go wrong with that!). I also got a nice pair of pantyhose with dragons on them, though I haven't a clue where I'll wear them. The very best purchase was a beautiful corset. Somehow I'm always drawn to corset's I just think they're beautiful. These were very high quality and they fit me for it right there over my shirt and every thing. I'd never tried one on and I couldn't believe how comfortable it actually felt once it was on, it sure did wonders for my figure too (Dragon is not precisely hour glass shaped anymore). It was funny when I took it off I felt all wobbly through my back, they really do force you to have great posture. They offered for me to wear it out but as that would entail losing my shirt and bra I decided against and simply went for a bag. I think if I can find the right skirt to wear with it I'd fit right in at one of Baldurs steampunk parties (until I opened my mouth of course when they would all condemn me for a perfectly corseted steampunk fraud and throw me out ) |

marius has wondered if Baldur has been secretly employed by TD. If not perhpas they should consider it as he has done a great deal to keep us laughing, inspired, uplifted, educated, well-fed, and generally appreciative of the finer things in life ... has raise our sensiblities so to speak. : ) |

My absence from ThinkDraw lately is related to the beautiful, warm, Springlike weather we have been having at Boughbreak. |
||
6934. 12 Apr 2010 19:09 | ||
The soil across the road was rather poor, and extremely rocky. |
||

Another thing coming up right now is our asparagus. We may cut some tomorrow, the first crop of the year. |

Enjoyed Baron Baldur's Boughbreak briefing. Spring is a wonderful time of year to be outdoors. Sigh--Sheftali e-filed her tax forms tonight, and owes Uncle Sam more money. Wah. |

Dragon is jealous of Baldur's fruit trees. There's nothing more beautiful than flowering fruit trees and I think Plum trees might be my favorite (though Cherry definitly gets in there too.) When I used to live in Kelowna I had to drive by several orchards on my way home, in spring it was just beautiful to see hundreds of blossoming apple and cherry trees. We had 1 apple, 1 cherry and 2 plums in our yard. They were wonderful to have but lots of work to keep healthy. |

Yay for Dragon--tax refunds, if not too big, are good. I keep trying to get my withholdings right so that I neither owe nor pay. Haven't hit that mark yet. |

Thanks Baldur for your explanation. I've heard lots of people are unemployed in US but that the economic situation is getting better. Hope you get a job that you like soon. |
