hmm, perhaps I should research Turkish Delight some more then. It does look like it would be very sweet. And I, like you Earyen, do have a delicate sense of TOO sweet. ;) I like sweet things but nothing that knocks you off your feet. lol in fact... *trots off to look it up*

Neri, has someone already told you about the ball? If not I would be more than willing tot ry to. Or go here:

Clicky, clicky!

and that pretty much explains everything. It's basically just where we all gather after the school year and celebrate LotR while doing various things for it. One of those things is the Taken Over WETA ball. :yes: And that takes place in the Misc. Randomness section... it's basically a fun RP-like thing where you go with groups or dates (imaginary dates and sometimes real AU members ;)) and just chat and have some fun while joining in in the other activities. Erm, does that make sense, dear? :erm: oh, btw, anyone can join too. :)

"....Turkish Delight features as the addictive confection to which Edmund Pevensie succumbs in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C. S. Lewis. Sales of Turkish Delight rose following the theatrical release of the film version of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe...."

^Our dear Ed is on Wikipedia! :p


I agree with you both though, Turkish Delight does look waayyy too sweet. Although, maybe just a teensy bite wouldn't be so bad... :)

Mmmm, that sounds really really good. I don't think anything is too sweet. :D That's awesome! Ed on Wiki! Plus, the fact that sales of TD rose after the movie came out is hilarious.

So, on to Dawn Treader. How awesome is Ed in that? How do you think the movie will be with following it and such?

Meh, it's hard to tell what they'll do with VotDT. I mean look what they did with PC, didn't exactly follow the book like with LWW. :erm: But LWW and PC were both awesome! So VotDT should be equally awesome whether they follow the book or not.

seriously? :lol: sales on Turkish Delight rose after the film was released? That's rich (literally! lol)... :teehee: and understandable at the same time. It makes me want to try it at least. I mean, if Ed likes it I'm sure it must be something good.... even if it's REALLY sweet. :P

I think they'll handle VotDT just fine personally. I'm not at all worried. I mean, if they vary a little from the book I really don't care. They did that with PC and it ended up turning out pretty good, IMO. :yes: They handled all of their changes with class. And the changes added a whole new element most people had never thought of too... so that was cool to me and I'm happy they had some imagination with the movie. I agree with Aranel, I think if they follow the book or not VotDT will still be sweet! :-D I can't wait to see Ed it in! :teehee:

SORRY I've been absent! :duh:

Just kinda got swamped at the end of last week. :P

OHHHHH dear. Turkish Delight. :drool:

WELL, I've never had it, but I've been meaning to make some one of these days. I've found a lovely recipe, but one I don't have the time and two...I'm not the best pastry baker. :P But we'll see. Because I REALLY want to try it.

When I was in Seattle like a year ago, we were down near Pike's Place Market, and I found a store that sold Turkish food...with Turkish Delight being the main advertisement. I don't know why I didn't buy any there. I should have. :duh:

That's so funny that the sales of Turkish Delight went up after the movie. :P But not surprising.

MMMMMMMMM....yay for sweet things! :D

*wanders in* hmmm, it's been a little while since I've popped by the Ed club. :) but you know I want to go see Prince Caspian again so badly. *pouts* I want to see Ed again. :erm: *sighs and huggles him* I can't wait til December. that would just kill me, I know!

that's alright, MB... :yes:

oh, if you ever make it you'll have to tell us how it turns out. It doesn't sound like it'd be too difficult to make. But then again maybe it would be... who knows. :P

It means "for the win". Basically it means whatever you're talking about is freaking awesome. :D
