The Hive Is Alive!

Spidey III didn't do well as compared to I or II

Breakfast for me was two dogs cooked over an open fire while I burned old boxes and clothes. Time for work again. Thursday I begin my official vacation as I go white water rafting , hiking and camping.


HOT sooooo hot and sticky. Almost looking forward to work since it has AC.

Til later.

Oh, pancakes were good. I used a technique that I picked up from a tv-show. I think you US guys might recognise the name Emeril Lagasse. He showed a couple of tricks in one of his shows for making pancakes, and I decided to give it a try. Unfortunatily I'm no good in explaining how it actually happened...

Came back from our great family party (also celebrating the 50th birthday of my godfather and the 73 (?) of the "partner" of my grandfather from my fathers side) at my parents home. I really love our family parties. My father has 3 sisters and 5 brothers and most of them has kids (several around my age, a few younger, and one also with children on their own), and it's nice to see them all again.
Since my godfather also celebrated, we also invited some of his old friends (study and flat mates).

My uncle was a little weak - last year, they diagnosed cancer in him (in a pretty advanced state, and the therapy is not going really well), and I think such events are particularly nice (even if taxing) for him. (He has to travel from South Germany to North Germany, but it's a chance to meet the entire family and long-term friends.)

I am not the kind of guy that celebrates a lot or meets many people, but our family parties (two other events are Christmas and Easter) are alwas great. Our family doesn't have the kind of "inner conflict" as I always hear from other families, and these events are very harmonic, and you can catch up with everyone.

So, others in the Hive having such great family reunions? How do you celebrate?*

*
With us, it's usually tea + cake (lots of) followed by beverages. Summer parties also feature a barbecue (and lots of salads). Unfortunately we had thunder and rain over most of the day, but we had party tents and a carport, so it was fine - even if a bit louder from all the rain coming down on the roof.

Ahoy! Not a regular hiver, but since the other boards are kinda slow at the moment I thought I might as well pitch in here.

I gotta say, it sounds kinda idyllic, your family reunions, Mustrum. Gee, wish I could get my whole family together like that, have a similar problem with it being spread out across the country though.

Kinda boring this time of day, prime time for being up and about in Europe but I guess the Americanites are off. Got so bored I started looked up random types of government on Wikipedia. Oh, and I went to some Danish website for people with mental problems and posted some video I found on the Onion Network thingy:

Kinda fun thing was that quite a bit of them started to believe it was a true news broadcast Oo. So I apologize to any Americans about what I've might have done to your foreign image.

Where do you sign up for the hive?
