Went to Harrogate today: my parents had sent me a voucher for Betty's (a restaurant/bakery/shop whose nearest local branches are Harrogate and York) and I wanted an easter egg for tomorrow. Sadly, they had almost sold out of eggs by the time I got there, and the few they had left were ones I didn't really want. (The shop assistant serving me was happy to tell me just how many eggs they'd had this morning, and how busy they'd been.) So I got a couple of cakes there instead with the voucher. Their cakes are very good.

(And then I got an easter egg elsewhere in Harrogate, at Hotel Chocolat, because I am weak and there is something about the chocolate of an easter egg.)

I am very weak.

Also turned up a copy of Sax Rohmer's The Slaves of Sumuru while poking around in a vintage/handmade shop. How could I refuse?

Oh, and this morning, my copy of the new Kickstarter deckbuilding game, Miskatonic School for Girls arrived in the post. Very pretty. Very pretty indeed. I don't regret it at all.

Ooo, nifty-sounding!

Also, yum, cakes and chocolate eggies.

Well, it depends on which version. The ultimate version, after Extreme Editing, didn't seem as annoying.

The pre-edited version, mind, should have its little neck wrung.

*snrk* Noooooo, I don't think so.

If I were younger, I'd contemplate cosplay, though.

Ooh, if you get a chance, post what you think of the game play for the Miskatonic School for Girls.
