Things that evoke fond memories

* The sight of a man in glasses holding a stuffed rabbit
* A platter of scones, served with runny lemon curd
* Echoes of the word "SKAAAAAAAAAANK!" here and there on LiveJournal
* A pair of damp pants draped carelessly over a halogen lamp

A totally stupid and drive-by comment:

A platter of scones, served with runny lemon curd

I can make that now!! My lemon curd is runny too! (this means you should visit me again so I can feed you!)

And even more stupidly, I just realized that that was me!

runs away in embarrassment

But completely echo fond memories #3-4!

* A pair of damp pants draped carelessly over a halogen lamp

There was a River Parade a few years back, when King Antonio took his cape off while still half-way through the parade. One of his aides unwittingly placed it over a halogen light.

At the end of the parade, the Aide picked up the cape before disembarking from the King's Cruiser. And charred right through its center was a black-ringed hole, perfectly round in the shape of the light.

Well, the King had some explaining to do when he went to take the costume in.

Hee! rachelmanjia has a funny story about when she did that, which is commemorated with her "Naked and dripping wet" icon.
