Allison wrote: "haha Jackie, any time I talk to you or read your messages I picture you just like that."LOL...I wished I looked like her! She was kind of how I pictured Claire to be. I have some other ones, but they're a little risky for a reading site. hehehe! Don't want to give the nerds a heart attack.
Did you check the Galbaldon website? There is a picture of Claire that will be used for the graphic novel. She's really pretty.
Oooh! I'll need to look at that. Do I just put her name in the search bar? Or is the site under Outlander?I had no idea there was going to be a graphic novel. I used to read them with my brother and have grown to really love the medium. I'll have to watch for it.
But, Fiona, Allison says I can't get it here. I guess I can look on E-Bay. It sounds good.
This should take you to the direct picture of Claire:http://www.cco.caltech.edu/~gatti/gab...
The website itself is filled with information. I didn't want to look too much in case there were spoilers though.
Amazon!! I'm tellin ya, it cost me like $6 shipping and all. Its pretty big too. I like having books from England, it makes me feel cultured when the price is listed in pounds on the back. haha.
Yeah, I didn't even look for them seperate. I just went for the big guns.
Allison, you got the monibus for $6? I can do that!
Allison: Try Powell's books they are online they have a huge selection of books two big stores one in Chicago & one in Seatle. They are pretty reasonably priced they might have it. I got a rare poetry book that was only published in England from them.
Jackie-Thanks. When you say spoilers, do you mean just the first book, or is it going to be the entire series? I'll have to be careful if that's the case.
Jackie: I like the picture of Claire.
Fiona: I forgot it's dinnertime over there. Didn't We decide that there is like 8 or 9 hrs difference. Oh it's been so long and all the threads I don't remember.

8 hours. I actually looked it up! I can't believe how often Miss Sassy Pants is still up at 2 a.m.!!!
I know. I would not function on the small amount of sleep she gets!
h I looked! She is lovely! Her hair is longer than I would have imagined at the beginning of the book, but, those lips...
oooo creepy...I wouldn't want to read IT at 2 a.m.
If you get a third shift job you won't need to change your sleeping habits. And enjoy it while your body will let you. When I was in my early 20's I hardly slept. Now I can't stay up too late or I can't think straight!
Kandice, she has stuff on all of her books- Outlander, the Outlander Companion, and the Lord John series. You can choose according to the titles, which are usually highlighted. Still I didn't want to fall into temptation.
No. Outlander. Spoilers.DON'T DO IT!!
Emilee's right about it depending on the shift you get. As far as the sleep thing goes... I used to be able to stay up until all hours. Now, I still can make myself, but I get up super early, no matter how late I get to bed, so I have to try to be reasonable! I for one am glad you stay up late Fiona! Other wise we wouldn;t get as much chatting in!!!!
Yeah, Fiona...it would be much more convenient for us if you moved over here. You should look into that.
But then she couldn't dazzle us with the description sof her exotic foods. Which, by the way, I really want to try Bubbles and Squeek, but I want it to look just like the picture! Fat chance of that.
What the heck is Bubbles and Squeek?
She should come visit then she can have our fatty juny foods like cheetoos!
We are so golden on the 6000 posts deal. Seriously.
er...8....7...whatever. I hate math
It's left over veggies and mashed (?) potatoes fried as pancake like things in oil. Fiona posted a picture and it looked heavenly. I'll look for it and post the # post it is.
My kitten is so darn funny. She is spralled out in my picture window sun bathing! Cats are great!
they surely do have some awesome food over there.
plus...thats where the Scots are ;)
Gorgeous weather for kitty sunbathing! I can't wait to go home and walk my doggie.
We have sun but I think it's only about 30 degrees but I am hoping for better weather!
man...I am addicted to baked cheetos. and they're baked! so I feel less guilty when I eat them all. lol.
it is almost 70 here! IT ROCKS. Although we're paying for it this weekend with a snowstorm, apperantly.
I haven't had those yet. I'll have to try them.
I am addicted to the reese's peanut butter eggs. Just so much peanut butter & chocolate!

I love anything cheesy...Cheetos and Doritos are my favorite.
Fiona wrote: "What's 70F in C? To me that sounds dangerously close to boiling point."21 I think
You never told me definitely. Was it the puffy Cheetos, or the crunchy ones? The puffy ones are very uniform in shape, while the crunchy ones look a bit like caveman clubs.I think I will try to make it, but why does the green look so dark in the picture you posted? I've never seen cabbage that dark. Could it be Brussels sprouts? They are my all time favorite vegetable!
Fiona, you find them around Easter time here.
haha, I might have converted wrong...but I don't think so.For us its mild, gorgeous weather :)
Heck, at Easter you can probably get cheetos shaped like eggs.
Cadbury's eggs, I think you mean. I don't really like them in general, they are too rich, but every once in a while... yum!What I wait all year for is Peeps. I know they have them for most holidays now, but something inside me objects to a Peep in any other shape but a chickie! I like them when they are old and getting chewy.
Peeps are out at Walmart! I love those too.
I love all cheetoos but haven't tried the baked. Anything cheesy is great!
