Almost Missed It

Yesterday, October 15, was the birthday of author, P.G. Wodehouse.  Jeremy and I had talked about celebrating, but we got so busy with things yesterday.  We didn't even check out any of his books at the library while we were there.  Can you believe it?  So I thought we wouldn't actually celebrate.  Oh, well.

However, after I put the older kids to bed last night, I found Jeremy in the kitchen making brownies.

A while ago Jeremy and I made a non-alcoholic drinking game for the TV show, Jeeves and Wooster (based on books written by P.G. Wodehouse).  We made lists in three categories.
For things that happen in most episodes, such as when Jeeves says, "Very good sir," you take a bite of a snack or a sip/drink of a beverage.  For other things that are somewhat common, but don't happen as often as in the first list, such as when one of Bertie's friends falls in love at first sight, you take two bites or drinks.  The last category is for those things that rarely happen, such as when Aunt Agatha makes an appearance without calling Bertie a name, and you get to take a handful or gulp of your snack or beverage.
Our snack of choice for this game is brownies and our beverage of choice is colored flavored sugar water (a.k.a. Kool-Aid or the like).  That explained Jeremy's brownie making in the kitchen.

So after the older kids were in bed we sat down with our brownies and Kool-Aid and watched the first episode of Jeeves and Wooster.  By the end we were a little sick to our stomachs, but just a little.
It had been a while since we played that game and it was fun.
