Rob's Got a Message...Probably for the Paparazzi

Well it seems Rob has been doing some transporting in that truck he bought off Craigslist (you remember the story he told on Jimmy Kimmel) and after having seen recent pictures...it reminded me about this little game I do with Mr. ATP. 

Remember that game of scruples? ATP and I have this long-running scruples type question....

You're driving by a dumpster and see a full-standing Edward sticking out. One that someone has *gasp* tossed--perhaps a disgruntled Twilight fan or a boyfriend who threw it out in a jealous rage. Anyway, it is just there, and it's the original Twilight Edward--one that you always wished you had gotten but either came into the Twilight fandom too late or were afraid others would judge you for having in your home (but have since learned not to give a f*ck)

What do you do?

What. Do. You. Do?

What would YOU do? 

Okay, you can just keep it your own little secret. ;)

Well looks like Rob isn't going to chance his full-standing Edwards ending up in the garbage or leaving them hanging around for anyone else to sob over, cuddle with, or use to practice scenes with.

Oh, and look at that! Rob's dangerous with a bar of soap!!!
He's got a message on the back of his truck....

it's probably for the paparazzi, but of course, I have no (shitty) sources to confirm anything so obviously we need to leave it open to interpretation

What will he do with his cardboard cutouts?

Maybe he sets them up in various rooms of his house so his dogs don't get too lonely and miss him when he goes out. 

Maybe he sets them up and pretends they are an audience when he tries out a new song on his guitar.

Maybe like me, he likes to set one up on a train set ala Home Alone, when he's not home to detract burglars.

@40 seconds, for those of you who don't remember this scene!

Maybe he plans to sign them and auction them off for charity. :) Such a Rob thing to do...

Maybe he told Stephenie he would make them available for display during her "Midnight Sun" book signings, whenever the f*ck that's gonna be.

Whatever his uses for his full-standing Edwards, I do believe that life is a journey and I choose to believe that once Rob gets to wherever he is going next or a few stops down the way, parks the truck, and looks back, he'll always be grateful for having the opportunity to play the beloved character of Edward in Twilight and in his heart will always carry a lot of wonderful memories of playing that role with him.

**Thanks to my fellow RobSquad members for indulging me and my ideas (even if they are only funny to me)! **

If you didn't know, Random Acts of Rob is back open for business, and the girls over there had a similar picture idea that they shared on today's post. They turned Rob's pickup into Tiger's doghouse---all the lost items over the years found. lol

Happy Birthday, IJM!!!

I don't know what I've been told,

but IJM is question mark old.

 Good news is Rob is here...

Bad news is we have no beer.

Happy Birthday

To You!!!!

So, Miss IJM... Blow out the candles and make a wish...

 

 Eh... what was the point of that really?

We all know what you wished for, right?

*whole room looks at Rob*

 

Poor Rob says...

"What?"

Hold on before you take off with your wish, IJM...

The party is really happening. kiTT knows how to throw a bash...

Wait... Who let my brother in here? He's going to defile the pool table...

 Kellan, throw some clothes on please!

Um... kiTT... you didn't tell us the hot tub was open tonight...

Um... why where you and IJM in the hot tub, Rob?

What do you mean someone was in the bedroom?

Okay... This is getting out of hand...

It was supposed to be a nice quiet get together for IJM...

 Who made Rob blush?

 What are you talking about, IJM? You opened what gift early...

 Oh... well...

How about we grab some refreshments?

 Oh... someone brought beer after all.

Uh... Kelly? Weren't you supposed to make sure Rob didn't hit the dance floor tonight? (you have to click the link)

{http://www.jibjab.com/view/w3YU_IryS6uTQz7q-DJjBA}   

 

 Well, it seems the party is winding down now that's it's two in the morning... Even Rob has calmed some...

(he's totally looking at you IJM)

 

 What do you mean you get the room with the mirror over the bed, Rob? I thought kiTT declared those off limits...

 

*buzz, buzz, buzz*

*smack the alarm*

*yawn and stretch*

I see we're all waking up today.

  Rob seems chipper. So does IJM...

What about the rest of you?

*nervous laugh*

Jackson? What are you doing here?

*whispers: You were supposed to sneak out*

Sorry... he may or may not have shown up with me.

I'm going to make sure he's off. I'll be back to help clean the blog in a minute. As for you IJM... We left you a little party leftovers for breakfast. It's in the kitchen. Check by the fridge...

    

Seriously! Hope your day was a blast! 

Everyone Wants a Piece of Edward Cullen's Sparkly Cock!

Well hello there ladies!

I've got a little riddle for you!

What's pale and ice cold, blood rushing through it, and sparkles on the outside that you just can't wait to wrap your lips around and taste?

That's right! Edward Cullen Sparkle Cock!!!

Wait...did I say Cock?

LOLOLOL Oh, my bad!

I meant caaaaaaaaaaaaake!

And you h00rs are all disappointed now aren't you? Well stick around because
I might have your answer to both!

Next to the DVD itself, it was the hit of the DVD viewing party at the TongueTwied household!

So if you are interested, I'm giving step-by-step directions on how to make your very own

Edward Cullen SPARKLY cake!

Disclaimer: This is made with strawberries. Allergic or don't like? Well...you might be able to find a substitute to fill your needs.

Just let me don my apron and put on my Twi-h00rs Food Network voice!

I wish shows like The Chew could have hosted a Breaking Dawn Part 2 DVD release party for fans. Are there no TWILIGHT fans involved with these shows? Why are us fans always left up to our own devices and pinterest?  *sigh*

First you need to bake yourself an Angel food Cake in a tube pan--one of those pans with the hole in the middle. No lube necessary. : D

Or...you can be a cheater and buy a premade one from your local market.

When you take it out of the oven to cool it, you wanna turn it upside down like so....

Just insert the tip in the hole.

You know, I would have used Heineken, but I had to keep those chillin in the frig for when

Rob drops in....(<---->oh crap! jeanette's back and statements like that could land me right under a bus! Welcome back, Jeanette

!!!)

Once you pull out the cake, you wanna leave it upside down.

Mmm, golden spongy yumminess.

Okay, next we're gonna circumsize this baby!

You want to take a serrated knife and start about 3/4 of an inch down

from the top of the cake and slice all the way across.

Now, because I am considerate of my OCD friends in the mix (and apparently there are a lot of them)

I'm going to tell you this now.

YES this is a 'topper' (SMH @17ForeverLisa) that you will be replacing later on, so

if you want to perfectly realign the top and bottom, there

is a little trick I like to do of putting a drop of food colloring at both the top and bottom in

one outer edge section of the cake. Since it is a nice white, light cake, you'll have

no problem with lining things up later.

Okay, back to the cake. With a knife you want to cut out a ....oh, what would be a good word to use here...

GUTTER!!!

Yep, that's it for this group. Not too close to the bottom or

edge, but if you make a mistake and pull too much

leaving a hole along the side, it's no problem. We're gonna ice this

baby and cover any mess-ups!

Put aside the cake that has been carved out.

Next!!!

As if this cake isn't light enough caloricwise, I'm going to offer you a few diet substitutions.

Here's where the strawberry comes in.

Watch it wiggle.

Here's the part where I'm just gonna say...you might want to play around with this amount wise and wing it.

Add about 1/2 cup boiling water to your jello mix in a bowl.

See how all the gelatin is along the side of the bowl?

Yeah, that's because I let mini help me. She brings enthusiasm and endless questions to the party.

But...try NOT to do that actually.

Now you are going to need some frozen strawberries. If you are a healthy little eager beaver that

grew your own and froze them well that is great. Use them!

For me, I bought this small tub, which I only slightly defrosted

by sitting it the container in a bowl of hot water.

Just enough to let it slide all out.

Now you want to pour another

1/4 to 1/2 cup of boiling water over the strawberries

to help dissolve them and stir, stir, stir!

Almost ready to fill!

I like to add in the cake from the middle that was

hollowed out, but if you find that you've gotten to this point and someone has already eaten all of it (it may be you, it may be the kids, it may be the hubs) then

it is fine to leave it out.

Fill the cake!!!

It's okay if you don't use all of the filling. Stick in the frig and eat later as jello.

Replace the top!

Almost done!!

You can stick this in the frig now for about 15 - 20 minutes to give the jello time to set

or wait until the whole cake is done and then put it in the frig.

Either way, it's gonna need to be refrigerated before serving!

Okay, now we need some thawed whipped topping.

Again, chance to use regular, lite, or fat free!

Feel free to pay twice as much for Cool Whip, but

it won't taste any better...imo.

My blog.

My wallet.

My cake.

My ShopRite.

Time to cover up all those imperfections!

Give it lots of peaks and valleys.

So now we know what this is...

pale, cool, blood running through its veins...

Time for the finishing touch,

and I have just the thing!

Who knew that for just $3.99 at Michael's Craft Store

(*nods* to HisBella)

you can buy your very own bottle of

edible

SHIMMERING

(COCK)

SPRAY-ON MIST!

LMAO!!!

Well you can do whatever you want with the extra once you get it on the cake...

I won't judge.

Spray it...we're talking about the cake now...as much or as little as you wish!!

And there you have it, your own

Edward Cullen SPARKLY cake!!!!

READY FOR A PIECE OF DELICIOUS SPARKLY GOODNESS?

My fic, Harvard Can Wait, no longer, is about halfway through.

By my stats, it always looks to me like there are people who

check it out...read the first two chapters and then skip down to the

most current one. Do they not know kiTT and her trail of clues, or what?

Enjoy,

kiTT

**Disclaimer: Wilton's spray is an edible product to be used with food. Nowhere on the can does it suggest using it for purposes related to adorning the human body.

That Moment When...

Thanks to my friend, TwiMama (not my mama)

for sending this to me last evening.

It gave me a good case of the giggles.

"Yep, I've totally been there!"

Rob thinks it's funny, too.

End of an Era - OriginalWard

Happy The Twilight Saga, Breaking Dawn, part 2 week!!

I still fondly remember having a backyard pool party and friends of mine coming over during the summer of 2009 and we were talking movies.  They said they saw Twilight and I asked how it was.

They replied, "meh...it was ohh-kay." And somehow because I trusted my friends and had no idea the movie was based on books had even less of a clue about Rob, I didn't run out to see the movie.

BIG MISTAKE. BIG. HUGE!

All is well as I rented the movie shortly thereafter and my husband found me in a comatose state often over Twilight from that day forward.

With the ending of twilight

and the unfortunate oversight of

People Magazine in not naming

Rob their Sexiest Man Alive,

the line of thinking around here was that it was only fiTTing to pay our own tribute to Rob as the guy many of us were introduced to and fell in love with as Edward in twilight.

He's not just the original, he's the gold standard of Edwards.

He deserves this title, sparkling! 

He's been part of a journey that

we never want to end. 

He'll live in our hearts, forever.

And so will the epic love story, which we thought was important to highlight in this issue's cover!

OriginalWard

[Painstakingly and tearfully but lovingly designed by 17ForeverLisa. She cried making these I think...or she was cursing me out the whole time because she went to great lengths to get that Premiere cover picture in there just for all of us.--Which we all appreciate your graphics efforts!]

Let's ride out the high of Breaking Dawn 2 as long as we can but if you find yourself at a point where you miss our beloved original Edward and want to lose yourself in some fanfiction that features the original Edward than here are some suggestions as provided by the 12monthers!

Most of these are like an Alternate Ending/Reality, what if situations.

What if, Edward came back sooner in New Moon?

What if, Edward became a human?

What if, unbeknownst to Edward after he left, Bella became a vampire?

What if Edward had left Forks after that first day in biology class and he and Bella met up again in college?

So if you've ever felt like you watched the movies and reread the books too many times, and just wanted to experience Originalward in a different light, then you may have checked out these fics! Linking where possible, but several have been pulled.  (that's when it helps to have a good fanfic dealer.)

Stranger than Fiction by MasenVixen

The List by lauraacullen

Warmth by KatieBelleCullen

Schism by Khar

The Note by CarsonDyle

Isle Esme by vixen1836

Edward's Eclipse by vixen1836

The Antidote by jandco (ADifferentForest.com)

Beyond Time by TKegl

Blood and Lust by awesomesauce76

Have you read this one? I think it was my first detailed honeymoon fic! Very easy to get caught up in!

Dark Side of the Moon by blondie aka Robin

This was the first story I read from Edward's POV, as it tells what might have happened to Edward after he left in New Moon.

My Yes, My No by lolashoes

and one of my more recent favorites:

The Keepsake by windchymes

Have you read this one? Uhhhh..so beautiful. She captures the old-fashioned Edward in this. When you realize what 'the keepsake' is your heart absolutely melts, sighs, and yearns even more (<---if even="even" for="for" is="is" originalward="originalward" possible="possible" that="that">

And if you find yourself in the mood for a darker, vampire Edward without the twilight there's:

Deliver Me From Evil by LisaDawn75

Eternally Damned by twiXlite

Hide and Drink by Savage7289

And, hey, whattya know....Originalward shows up in Slash too!

Power by OftheDamned

*****

Truly, like Law&Order, nothing beats the original but

surely something you've read as come pretty darn close!

What's your favorite FF story with OriginalWard?

OR what was your first OriginalWard story that you read that literally recaptured the spirit of Originalward and blew you away?

Do reminisce!

Iridescent: Book Release Day!

Wishing Carol Oates

"Congratulations"

today on the release

of her third book through

 Ominific Publishing!

You can now order the second book in the Ember Series, titled: Iridescent

(Back Cover)

which is the sequel to

Truthfully, I was not a big reader until a few years ago. We all know which book tapped my heart and led to a renewed interest in reading, but I've ALWAYS been interested in well-told stories, especially Young Adult Paranormal seeing as some of my favorite television shows over the years were Buffy, the Vampire Slayer and Charmed.

I think I told this story before how when I was growing up I would ask Santa Claus for magical powers as a gift. It has only been recently that I've realized that my childhood delusions interests have a place in my adult life, as I always seem to enjoy stories with average female protagonists who do come into magical abilities, changing them to extraordinary as they use their newfound powers for good. This is why Carol's stories and characters are so enjoyable to me! And I hope you will give them a try too!

For more information about the books, you can visit Carol's webiste: www.caroloates.com

The books can be purchased:

www.omnificpublishing.com

www.barnesandnoble.com

www.amazon.com

and coming soon to

www.thebookdepository.com

Both print books are on sale through Amazon, and if you buy both you'll be eligible for free shipping! Of course, they are also available for ereaders!

Happy Reading!

Maybe it's time to Give a Damn About Your Reputation...

Sometimes we have to have it out at Thanksgiving dinner and just put it out there that not everything is about the Brenda-Dylan-Kelly Bermuda Triangle and all the drama that goes along with it. Thanksgiving Day is about turkey, and we all know that Dylan likes Cindy Walsh's turkey better than Jackie's.

oops. Wrong obsession. #BH, 90210 but...correct premise. *wink*

I guess here is as good a place as any to make some commentary on Kristen. Not that she or her people will see it, but if I had a friend in Kristen's shoes, this is what I would tell them, honestly and with sincerity in my own special way that includes sarcasm and a little joke. That's how I treat all my friends. I don't think I am repeating anyone else in saying this (which is unfortunate in so many ways), but this was my reaction to when I initially heard her apology to Rob. Remember how it went something like referring to Rob as the one person she loves and respects the most?

I truly hope that one day soon, she can find it in herself to BELIEVE that the one person in the world you should love and respect THE MOST is YOURSELF.

I know it's cliche, right? As cliche as sending your child or friend off to a new group of people and saying to them to 'just be yourself.'

Having the guts to flip the papps off doesn't promote one's belief in self worth. Her outfits and lack of even bothering to brush her hair? Well, same thing. I know seven year olds that want their hair to look pretty and perfect and yet Kristen Stewart shows up to public appearances, as my grandmother used to say, like she ran an egg beater through her hair.

I'm surprised Jodie Foster didn't point any of this out in her article, actually.  Another thing I was surprised Jodie didn't say, which is my second piece of advice to Kristen Stewart, is to put the whole Hollywood thing aside for now and go get a college education. Now is the best time to do it! Hey maybe James Franco was trying to encourage her to go to college when he was seen talking to her at TIFF. ;) Go live in the real world for a bit and gain that valuable college degree--it's something to be proud of and no one can take it away from you. Also, Donald Trump really likes to talk about education...just in case you ever were to wind up on Celebrity Apprentice. HEY! It's better than Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, isn't it?

It is important to note how very positive this advice is, mostly because I don't want to see her go the other way. (Wait, don't take that wrong *snickers*) I mean I don't want to see her head down a path of self-destruction--drugs, alcohol, rehab, losing friends, etc..nobody wants to see her head down that road.  

I'm sure the rebel character is fun to play, but at some point, don't you want to give a damn about your bad reputation?

If so, then let me review my two suggestions:

1.  Do some soul searching/therapeutic work on yourself to get to the point where you can respect and love yourself. (looking respectable. Acting respectable. It all goes together)

2.   Go to college and graduate with a degree.

In the meantime, I need to get back to basics, to what I'm looking forward to--the story, the movie--and not dwell on the disappointing  actions off camera, because Breaking Dawn really was one of my second favorite book after Twilight minus the Jacob POV bullshit. And I just want to say again, that I want to see the entire core cast to go on and live happy, successful lives. I want to be their fans from the Twilight days for years to come!

IrishTwiheart made one of my fav fan videos redoing the proposal in Eclipse and has now made a great video to sum up Bella's journey and set us up in anticipation of BD2.

Take a look...



Bravo to IrishTwiHeart (again) because this really helped me get back into the Bella frame of mind. I always liked the book, Breaking Dawn, especially the part we've already basically seen thanks to spoilers I wasn't gonna watch but that Bill Condon is a persuasive one! Bella's awakening and the first hunt--the footage looks pretty good so far. Actionwise, even better than BD 1. Speaking of which, sometime this week, I hope to rewatch BD 1 and give you my review.

Jack Morrissey tweeted me, encouraging me to believe there was a chance that Rob would still be at the Breaking Dawn TwiConvention. I really hope that rings true even if I won't be there to see it and I'll add it to my list of regrets in life...right next to not having seen Steve Perry sing with Journey. (LOL that's a little Jack Morrissey joke. You have to listen to his podcasts.)
