Entries Due TONIGHT midnight for Slayerstillness challenge 30 Free for All Round & OWL Challenge 181

1) slayerstillness: What I said in the title? THAT.

It's 4:45pm est my time zone and the deadline is midnight YOUR TIME ZONE. Isn't that convenient?  More entries are always welcome. Once again I have no illusions about winning jack this round, I just wanted to stretch my muscles and get back in the game.

(Somehow, I managed to lose a really lovely Amends icons I'd made that I intended for submission. Literally, I cannot find it. PLEASE tell me I'm not the only one who has ever done that? LIe to me if you must, my dears.)

2) otherworldlyric submissions are also due tonight at midnight for Challenge 181, "Eye of the Tiger".  This time, I confess I've got nothin' (I tried to think of a vampire eye in really close up to go with the title of the song but that's really freakin' obvious isn't it?) but maybe YOU'VE got a little something-something?

Hmmm... Otherworld lyric huh? I have this idea of Darla and Dru for: "Rising up, back on the street"

Also, doesn't "Risin' up to the challenge of our rivals" make you think of Buffy vs Faith?

oooh, I'm liking, I'm liking...I don't think I can make anything tonight (unless my sweetie goes to bed early *plots*) What episode are you thinking? From ats? (which I haven't seen)

Also, doesn't "Risin' up to the challenge of our rivals" make you think of Buffy vs Faith?

I keep mishearing that lyric in my head as "the challenge of our lives" and thinking about the shot in OMWF where everyone is walking down the street (the firetruck shot.)
But NOW I've got Buffy & Faith on the brain, hmmm.....

(And also, gluten free lava chocolate cake because my sweetie is reading me gluten free baking recipes.)

Dru turns Darla in The Trial, which is in Season 2 of AtS. Also, they are together in the next episode, Reunion.

OOOOH, yummy cake!

Glad if anything I said was helpful.

Definitely worth digging into! I've never done Dru or Darla (I tried some Dru icons once but they were a miserable failure.)

(Of course I've never posted my Buffy/Faith "Slayer hand job" icons because now I'm embarrassed by the quality of them.)

Oh and the cakes, they are gluten free with coconut flour: Mexican chocolate cake

(let's face it the ingredients in this one? Prob a $30 cake here)

the molten lava cake is a wee bit more reasonable - and at least it looks good in the photo:

Thanks for the recipes!

I know you underestimate your work routinely, so I am sure those icons are FAR better than you say.

You're very welcome!

And trust me, I have my moments of "wow this is good!" and then...I start looking at the stuff other people have been doing for years and think, not so much after all. (I'm trying to make my approach sound like a positive. It probably isn't.)

I still get a HUGE kick out of seeing my icons used by other people. :)
