Hobby Swap

[cjsmith]

Here's a swap meet I'd love to go to. Hobby swap! Bring your old hobbies and go home with secondhand hobbies you get from someone else!

I'll probably never make candles again, so I'd bring my books and molds and paraffin and colors. I'll bring my rollerblades with elbow and knee pads. I'll bring my cake decorating books and my collection of fancy icing tips. I might go home with pliers & dowel & a bunch of thick wire to turn into chain mail, or perhaps a power sander, or a beginner's archery bow and arm guard.

There might be cheese MAKING equipment! Cheesecloths, books (ok I have one book on how to make cheese)... :-) :-)

If I host it, of COURSE there'd be cheese. LOTS OF CHEESE. A big sideboard with cheese and crackers. The hobby stuff would be over *there*, in the corner, where there's no good light, and everyone would be clustered around the cheese and gabbing merrily.

As a flaming skeptic of all things mystical, I've never been into divination or prophesying or any of that kind of stuff. BUT, if I were exposed to actual cheesemaking supplies I might have to seriously consider taking up tyromancy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyromancy)....

"I SEE... delicious CHEESE... in my FUTURE!"
