Yoga; Thursday, Second Period [06/15].

[died8yearsago]

"This week," Rosa said, once again ready to go for a nice, easy morning of beach yoga where all she pretty much had to do was explain a few things and then not talk to anyone while they figured it out for themselves, because that was where the real learning was, right?, "we're going to continue to expand our repertoire of poses by reviewing some from last week and introducing a couple more that put a emphasis on a deeper stretch. And if these intermediate poses we're touching on are still feeling a little advanced for you, just focus on refining some of the previous ones we've learned that you are more comfortable with. Then we'll just practice a bit of our breathing and meditation, with the usual warm up and cool down.

"Any questions?"

If there was, she apparently was ignoring them at this particular moment.

"No? Good. Let's start."

Camp Cooking Essentials; Thursday, 06/15.

"Sometimes," Ignis said, with a nod toward where the students were gathered in preparation to get started on this week's lesson, "one of your most useful tools when cooking for camp or out on the field is one of the most basic." And here, he held up a long thin box for emphasis. "And that is a good foil. While there are many products on the market and tools to help out your outdoor kitchen, this is something you can almost bring on any camping trip or excursion that is easy, convenient, and not too terribly costly. The key is that you can use it as a way to encapsulate all your ingredients and use the heat of the fire and a little bit of steam to create incredibly complex and delicious meals with little preparation or effort.

"So today, I'd like to explore some possibilities as to what you can make with a foil meal. I have a few basic recipes for ideas, including a classic, time honored pizza, for inspiration, but I would also like you to perhaps use your own imaginations and tastes and experience in camp cooking thus far to see what you might come up with for yourself.

"In a way," he continued, with a note of encouragement, "the versatility and simplicity of a foil packet meal means there are a wide variety of possibilities. If there's something you're unsure of how to recreate with this method, go ahead and ask, and we'll see if we can't figure something out. Or, simply put together all of your favorite ingredients and see how they might turn out. Because the concept is so simple, we should have plenty of time to try things and experiment."

Paintball!, Thursday, June 15, 2023

Well, there were mercifully no rubber chickens for the class to have inflicted on them. But there were buckets of what looked like water balloons along with the regular gear.

"So, this week we'll be trying out a new weapon," Tony said. "The grenade. Or, in this case, water balloons packed with paint."

"It's going to be fun!" Steve said enthusiastically, but then he was always enthusiastic about the combination of tactical exercises and mess.

"So, suit up and let's get ready to be a mess!" Because it would be. Oh, it would be.

"We'll play, too."

To no one's surprise, really.

Library, Thursday 6/15

The library was full of beeping noises today. Beeping noises and baked goods.

It made for an odd combination but Belle was going to just accept it. The rainbow cookies were quite tasty!

The Floor is Lava - Thursday, Period One

[wrongkindofsith]

The landscape in Danger Shop looked surprisingly peaceful today, lava and all. Suspiciously so, one might say.

But those people were paranoid. And so, maybe, correct.

"So, today is going to be something a little different," Jane said, eyeing the 'lava' warily. "With simple places to jump, but..."

The lava roared. Yes, roared.

"Surprise," Cara said dryly as several massive heads reared out of the lava, equally transparent, glistening, and wobbly.

"It just doesn't seem structurally sound," Jane sighed. Because it didn't, okay? It just didn't!

The nearest jello dragon snapped its goopy jaws at Jane, just for that.

"Have fun," Cara said, sounding genuinely excited, the weirdo.
