The Hatch Lives
Hello my dear friends -
Nope, sorry, I didn't find a way to manipulate time (yet) and get my write-up for "Eggtown" done already. I expect that I will have it posted by Monday morning; believe it or not I actually have somewhat of a social life this weekend.
Here's what may come as a surprise to you in the meantime--I LOVED a Kate-centric episode for once!
I thought some readers would get a kick out of seeing pictures from the party I hosted for my peeps last night, so here they are. My friends didn't want their faces posted for thousands to view (can you believe that?), so I'm sticking to shots of our decorations. If you click on any of the pictures, you can see a larger version.
Below are the other shirt choices I considered. I also considered trying to put the larger one on my dog, but he would have none of it.
As guests rounded the corner to go down into The Hatch, they were reminded of who all the characters are by a little display on the piano (shout-out to CM for these pics she brought to a previous party).
We've had this table set up for years now (we do take it down when the season is over, but during the season it is used as a station for pizza, popcorn, etc.), and the list of characters and mysteries I add to it keeps growing and growing. Since people have asked for close-up pictures of this table in the past, I've included two of the top of the table below. Hauling it out again for last night's party made me realize how many characters have bitten the dust!
Around the corner reside my action figures. They only come alive when I am alone with them, though.
Our TV area was the center of nerdy Lost shout-outs. Can you find nods to: Jack, Hurley, Frank, Kate and Charlie?
Little Trump, Dwight, Agent Mulder (hidden from view), Gollum and Pirate Head have the best seats in the house.
You know your husband loves you when he agrees to RECREATE THE HATCH MAP (yes, it is an exact replica, complete with glow-in-the-dark paint, and some secret messages thrown in for friends).
He even made a helicopter! Rousseau's map of the Island is in the background on the door (this came with one of the action figures).
And finally, my most creative contribution of the night was these cookies. This is about as domestic as I get (no, they were not even from scratch).
If you have enjoyed these pictures, then you might also want to take a look at my Season Two finale party pictures. Have you now fully comprehended the extent of my insanity?
