    @AusVintageGrrl I don’t think pancakes are English. I never had them ever when I lived in England. You mean American style?


    @AusVintageGrrl Oh. No idea then. I like mine the size of a dinner plate, thick and fluffy, with bacon and maple syrup on top!


    @Kat13v Oh no! That sucks!


    Biker boots making me feel like Vyvyan. Everything is BORING, and I have impulse to start kicking people.


    Why are there giant pink dot stickers on the sidewalk along the west side of George St for, like, 10 blocks??


    Curiouser and curiouser. The pink dots appear to end in some giant mass at the QVB. Bus turned before I could get a good look…


    @thisismywww Hm. I noticed them from Chinatown heading into the CBD. They go all the way to Wynyard??


    AHA! I think the pink dots in Sydney are related to this: http://t.co/ItmyTC7Y It’s a public art/game thing.


    @thisismywww @sharre I tracked it down to this: http://t.co/ItmyTC7Y

    Sing Ho! for a Mo! The Snook is growing a ‘tache as part of Fauxvember. Please consider donating: http://t.co/PrwNHmrf


    @knitterjp I hates it FOREVER.


    @gilmae Dude, at least let me live in hope for like 10 minutes.


    @gilmae Also, I mentioned you on my blog. I set up proper link posting on it. I’m still annoyed though.


    Frocktober Finale: vintage dress & fascinator. It’s OVER! http://t.co/1lcG0vJW


    @gilmae All good! Phew. Dead heat was pretty much our nightmare. 🙂


    @sophiebcarter But they already did. 🙁


    RT @dancingman: Fact: Electricity demand in Sydney dropped by 39MW (15%) during #MelbourneCup. Source: Me (I was watching the meter).


    @dancingman Hahaha, damn. Seemed too good a stat – guess it was! 🙂


    @imdominating Real books cost too damn much here! I’m all about ebooks now, just because they’re cheaper.


    Frocktober Wrap-Up now on the blog! http://t.co/wuamg7cv


    @Diepdin I have resorted to sharing links on my actual blog. It feels weird. 🙂


    @Opheli8 I had to zoom in. In thumbnail, looked like your legs were all dirty! 😀


    RT @knitterjp: We Live Colors touchdown http://t.co/AOwQk8aX // HOLY CRAP, that’s a lot of tights! 🙂


    @Yarna_ @knitterjp @drkknits @mrs_sockvictim @randomknits @kat13v But Frocktober is OVER! I want to wear some PANTS, dammit!


    @knitterjp Sure, happy to run over!


    @knitterjp What time do you get to work? I think I’m later than you generally. Could walk in and swing by on my way…


    @knitterjp How about I meet you by Harry’s Crab place like 8:35ish then?


    @gilmae @knitterjp Excellent. I will see you both there then!


    Halloween Party 2011 Photos are up! http://t.co/OHI1Qu1Z If you’ve got photos of anybody I missed, please send them through!


    @Ezzles Ahhh, I just posted a similar one that @gilmae emailed me. Thanks to you both!


    Hot pink Wollmeise from @randomknits and new tights from @knitterjp. Best morning ever! Thanks ladies (and @gilmae)! http://t.co/EdWvndgv


    @randomknits It’s gorgeous! I love it. Thank you so much. I have it sitting below my monitor so I can stare at it all day. 🙂


    My new boot are here and they are awesome and I love them and I feel like a rock star!! http://t.co/aeHgYcZc

    Ravelers: I’m giving away some Halloween stuff, suitable for a kids party! http://t.co/4kGIY4q5


    @imdominating Hahahahahahahahahhha…


    My Halloween costume for work. Yeah, nobody here got the Heisman reference. http://t.co/1G4axFoW


    @hudsonmeats Looks great! Wish the events weren’t sold out. 🙂


    @mpesce You got name-checked in a MetaFilter thread today! http://t.co/52uJr3ZM


    @drkknits Wait, what? I shared that!


    @web_goddess Nevermind. Just saw that @mrs_sockvictim did too. Heh.


    @drkknits It didn’t pop up on mine, so I thought you were confusing us. Because we look so much alike, obvs. 🙂


    I was going to go to work early so I could leave this arvo and watch the race. Then I remembered horse racing is boring and sleep is good.


    Fauxvember = AWESOME. Looks like the Snook *will* be participating this year after all! Bring on the ‘tache! http://t.co/PdKMVHVu


    @knitterjp @wen1965 Boss said we could leave at 2:30 if we came in at 8 and worked through lunch. Not a huge perk, but better than nothing!


    @knitterjp @wen1965 But I am a slacker, so I didn’t bother.


    @mrs_sockvictim @retromummy Yes I do! I got mine at David Jones Food Hall. It’s expensive though. Usafoods.com will have it too.


    @mrs_sockvictim @retromummy You can make your own, but you need to drain the purée overnight to get a lot of the water out. I’ve done it.


    @gilmae New interface?? Haven’t logged in yet today. Did they screw our sharing, as feared?


    The new Google Reader SUCKS. I want to read my friends’ shared items in Reader, not in Google+.


    @Diepdin If you refresh it, you’ll see. It sucks. 🙁


    Ugh. People *like* the new Google Reader? They must not have ever used the sharing.


    @quietdiscourse I used it to share things on a daily basis with a small group of people. Also publish feed to my blog. All gone now.


    @theadrianflores I think they’re gone. I can’t figure it out. How do I share? Do I +1 something? THIS IS SO STUPID.


    RT @Alegrya: Dear lazyweb, as GReader has decided to suck and I don’t want to linkspam my G+ friends, what other rss reader & sharing si …


    Feedly looks good, but I don’t want to share to other SN sites. I want to share WITHIN my reader.


    @retromummy @mrs_sockvictim Yep. With the American foods. Big can of Libby’s (enough to do two pies) is around $10.


    @gilmae Fine for me, but there are plenty of Reader sharers without blogs (like the Snook).


    @gilmae You are talking about a person that took 5 years before he’d even comment on my blog.


    @gilmae It’s not luddite. It’s laziness. And then it becomes a THING, because he wants to be the last person not on Twitter. Or something.


    @googlereader I hate, HATE that you took sharing away. Completely destroyed utility for me. Looking for an alternative service now.


    @gilmae Also, I shared a lot of items. I don’t want them all cluttering up the blog. I liked having a single catch-all post per day.


    @gilmae That’s what I’m doing. I have a plan.

    Huh. We slept in late.


    Leftover mini shoo-fly pies make a great morning-after breakfast.


    Wow. Other than a couple sinkfuls of dishes, the house is back to normal! Smoothest party cleanup ever.


    Okay, who took photos at the party last night? Because I only got a few. Please – hit me with links! Especially of the food…


    RT @knittydotcom: I read the whole thing and then wept. “It’s full of stars”, almost. RT @longreads: “A Sister’s Eulogy for Steve Jobs.” …


    @eileenDCoE YUMMMMM.

    @zephyrama Heh. That’s not a real pumpkin. It’s a “Funkin” my Mom sent me years ago. Didn’t buy a real one this year.


    Guess who’s baking her first ever pav! #halloween http://t.co/l6nIMMfY


    @zephyrama No way my newspaper-stuffed scarecrow would support a real one. 🙂


    @eileenDCoE @witty_knitter It’s actually going to be a “Pumpkin Pie Pavlova,” which Rodd finds scary and wrong. I AM LOVING IT.


    Lunch break! Party To Do list gone from 22 to 16 so far… (@ Toby’s Estate Broadway) http://t.co/p3C8b7J4


    @sthcrft @witty_knitter @eileendcoe We made that too. For having with beer. Pumpkin Pie Beer Floats. 🙂


    Why make normal devilled eggs when you can make ALIEN devilled eggs! #halloween http://t.co/avO41pza


    @Kat13v Mine spread too much too. I’m calling them Dragons’ Toes instead.


    Happy Halloween from Wonder Woman and the Greatest American Hero! http://t.co/DrQdI4ke


    @imdominating But of course!


    1:30am. Last guests are gone, first pass of cleanup done. Fun night! Thanks to everybody who came. Now to collapse for 364 more days…

    RT @AusVintageGrrl: New Post: Red Riding Hood, Indiana Jones, Greatest American Hero and Minifigs. Great party! Thanks http://t.co/O0EiPvdB


    @randomknits @knitabulous Ah, you should’ve said! Totally could’ve gotten out Rock Band. Didn’t think of it cos I haven’t played it in ages.


    @Kat13v Awesome costume!!

    @Opheli8 Oh noes! Snookums has one too. Maybe somebody at Xanthi was a SPREADER.


    @discoknitter That would be awesome! Thank you.


    @Kat13v @ausvintagegrrl @witty_knitter Just tried on my whole kit. It’s skimpier than I usually go for! Damn lesbians will be after me. 🙂


    @knitabulous Oh, Rodd nearly had a heart attack. My fierceness is gonna be universal, baby.

    Why does Facebook change the sorting of my News Feed EVERY SINGLE DAY? Totally new UI for it AGAIN. PICK ONE YOU JACKASSES.


    @knitterjp Awesome! And yay, found out today that Lyn and Margarita are coming too! WE FINALLY WORE THEM DOWN. 😀


    @drkknits Oh! You just reminded me that we have a few of those. Yes, please! If it’s not too cumbersome.


    @drkknits Ah. I’m not sure we can cater to all the Royal Requirements, Queeny. You may just have to sit on the counch with everyone else! 🙂


    @Opheli8 Heh. I make those every year. But mine are green, because they’re Witches’ Fingers. 🙂


    Somebody’s a cuddle bug tonight! http://t.co/NI6gF1Xh


    @brown_note Hmm. I’ll keep that as a last resort then. 😛


    @witty_knitter @miss_reecie The reject shop at Broadway has some nice cheap masks. And the $2 shop at World Sq has LOTS of stuff!


    @Kat13v @witty_knitter @miss_reecie Amongst many other things… Pumpkin Pie Beer Floats, anyone? 🙂


    @eileenDCoE That sucks! Maybe just oily fish? I’ve been making an effort to eat more fish. We got frozen NZ fillets at Costco, very good.

    @heathergracious Thanks! Yeah, $4 is the cheapest I’ve seen. Might have to just suck it up at this point… 🙂


    @randomknits @gilmae TOTES. YOU MUST DO IT. Also, video footage on YouTube may be required as proof. 🙂


    @witty_knitter Yes. I should write a blog post. Bad acoustics + thick French accent made it very difficult to understand anything!


    @witty_knitter But we got to try a “Japanese Stone” from Sepia, which was fantastic. And see how they’re made. http://t.co/DFC3MuM5


    I have a familiar. When I look over my shoulder, I see this and giggle. http://t.co/aFYCJ54J


    Frocktober #18. My new Mad Men dress. http://t.co/7axZNsFr


    @zephyrama That’s the one! I need some retro-appropriate shape wear though. I am sucking everything in today! (I have cardy for warmth.)


    @RachaelElswyk Apple Pie Fashions on King St in Newtown. Lovely shop, and it was on sale! All nice retro-style dresses.


    @RachaelElswyk Aw, thanks! It seems I do look best in fitted vintage stuff. Far cry from my usual jeans and ironic t-shirt!


    @witty_knitter @knitterjp Interesting. Rodd and I have both had a subset of those symptoms this week too…


    @witty_knitter I had a day off last week to rest up. Rodd’s had two off this week. Sleepy lethargy is the worst part for me!


    Starting to get a little worried about having enough chairs on Saturday. Anybody have some extras they can loan us?

    @Illdrinn I dunno. I have a friend who went there in New York and loved it. Plus I have love for the Korean-Americans (since I am one). 🙂


    @Illdrinn Now you’re bumming me out. Should I pay $350 to find see if the Emperor has new clothes? Hmmm.


    Sweet, just got confirmation of my registration for Google Developer Day. Looking forward to it! Special thanks to @Illdrinn…


    At Sydney Uni for an evening of molecular gastronomy!


    Frocktober #17. Bright orange legs and Liza on a crappy grey day. http://t.co/LvnljwlG


    Look what Amazon brought me! Thanks to @knitterjp for the recommendation… http://t.co/2hu4SYUk


    @knitabulous @MissVicki79 You guys didn’t miss much. Bad acoustics + thick French accent = mostly incomprehensible. For 2 hours. 🙁

    @gilmae Yay! I’m sure it’ll be awesome.


    Frocktober #16. Attack of the Angry Bird. (I made that skirt.) http://t.co/LJjiD4WH


    I have lost all will in life to do anything but sit on my couch and watch Community. I blame @kunaal84.


    I should’ve gone with Ada Lovelace. You don’t have to worry about your ass hanging out in an Ada Lovelace costume. #halloween


    Momofuku Seiobo open for reservations! System only seems to allow bookings for next 9 days. I’m gonna wait a few weeks…


    @steven_noble I’ve only ever been there once before. I’m excited! Trying to get in for our anniversary next month. 🙂
