The China Pearl Inn

Me Mari muddling along and stoking the fire on the hearth as I contemplate the chores of the day.

I 'll be popping back and forth between Lit and the RW.

 

[cgraven]

Morning to any who may be about.

 

[prettyserpentine]

Ah, the weekend is here.

*sits down by the window and looks out at the night*

 

[cgraven]

Evening Miss. Yes the weekend is just about on us. So a cup of cheer to warm the spirits?

To CgRaven

My dearest Sir.

As our Canadian Thanksgiving approached I wanted you to know that you remain in this girls heart and prayers as always.

Faith that you make a difference in this world.

Hope that tomorrow will be a brighter day.

[yeishia]

To my fellow Canadians.

Wanders in sitting back at the bar deep in thought. Mind in problem fixing mode on one I know I can't fix but hope to offer ideas that can fix it. Damage control seeming like the only answer a growl falling from me as I glance towards the whiskey for a long moment.

Calming and finding my smile before glancing around...

Greetings to any lurking about.

 

[amchentai]

*walks in and flops down on a couch near the fire*

It's kinda cold here today...
Hope everyone is doing well!

 

[Asa]

HAPPY THANKSGIVING to all my friends and family in Canada and a merry Columbus Day to friends in the States and a good morning to all the rest.

After morning salutations I pour a mug of coffee and blow a kiss to the redheaded nymph of the rafters, and the shy Miss of the shadows.

 

[cgraven]

I rouse myself from my writing and noticing the sun is over the yard arm I pour myself a single malt as the long shadows of afternoon stretch across the Inn's courtyard.

 

[DarkWarrioress]

* I pop in real quick like to kiss the resident innkeeper's cheek before fading away to spend time with Sir*

Evening, CG. Hope all is well with you. I'm busy as usual with far too little time to spare.

 

[cgraven]

I savor Cait's chaste kiss and her bright smile.

All too busy I see Miss Cait but I am glad you have found time for Sir.

My what a naught avatar Miss.

*sneaks into the inn wrapped in a blankie and heads for the counter intent upon preparing a hot toddy*

... winter nasties ... who needs them.... ?

'She murmurs sadly as she considers ingredients and proportions*

 

[cgraven]

Winter Nasties Mari…. It is hardly autumn.

I tease her.

Perhaps some honey, lemon and a shot of good whisky in a hot tumbler?

Doesn't feel like it Cg ...

*shivers*

Yes ... that sounds like a good combination ...

Mari

 

[cgraven]

Yes Mari and I think just what you need at the moment.

I combine the honey, lemon a shot of good whiskey with boiling water and pour it into a hot tumbler give it a good stir and pass it to Mari.

Well if it doesn’t cure you Mari at least it will warm the spirit.

 

[DeliciousMaiden]

Thank you Cg, I need warming ... body and spirit ...

*sips at the glass*

Mmmm ... perfect ... just what the landlord ordered.

*smiles*

How's your day going?

 

[cgraven]

It is a slow day here a bit of a chill in the air and a touch of morning fog and overcast. The autumn winds have pretty much stripped the maples and oaks of their brilliant colored leaves. Just splashes of golden yellow of the birch and alders against the dark blue greens of spruce, hemlock and pine.

How goes your day?

 

[DeliciousMaiden]

How goes your day?

Sounds lovely ... my day ... just wrapped in a blankie shivering and aching ...
Feeling lousy ...
Seems cold but sunny here, but I haven't gone much further than my bedroom today ...

 

[cgraven]

A rather short commute for you then Mari.

I dig out my old Army blanket from the cupboard and drape it over Mari's shoulders hoping it will warmer her and the scent of pines smoke and spruce will not overwhelm her.

Awww.... thank you Cg ... I may just curl up on the sofa here for a while and finish my drink before heading for bed again ...

*sighs finding the blanket comforting*

[cgraven]

Glad I could be of some assistance Mari.

A soft kiss brushes her forehead.

Now curl up on the sofa snug as a bug and rest for a bit. Miss Mari!

Mmmmm ...

.... murmurs softly and curls up as suggested ...

I think that seems like a good idea...

 

[cgraven]

I think so as well Mari

I tuck our charming invalid in and pour myself a mug of coffee.. Hoping that a post or two may come in so I can have a bit of writing to occupy my restless mind.
