If it's any consolation, I'm bad at any and all card games most of the time. ^_^ I have the occasional lucky streak at Crazy Eights, but that's not really a hard thing to win. XD Okay... I am slightly consoled, then. >_> *tackleglomps* So how are you?  <3 I'm glad I slightly consoled you. ^_^ I'm good. Unnecessarily hyped up. I want to go out and find this letterbox now but, um, it's night time and it would probably be a bad idea to walk across town to a conservation park at night. And I don't have a stamp or logbook. But I'm very intrigued. I guess I'll have to sleep on it. And you? |

Say, Goosh, what's your avatar/display name about? *curious* You suggested an unheard-of game thing, so I picked my favourite relatively unheard-of game, Dark Cloud 2. Though the prequel is just as good. Anyone owning a PS2 should get it as soon as possible. =D |

=D Yes! Now there are even more ways to get sugary goodness! For some reason this computer isn't letting me open any more internet windows though.... 0_o Then I shall copy and paste =D! How To make How To Make Marshmallows At Home at Home
Marshmallows
1 cup confectioners' sugar
3 1/2 envelopes (2 tbls. plus 2 1/2 teas.) unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup cold water
2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup hot water (about 115F.)
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla
Oil bottom and sides of a 13- by 9- by 2-inch rectangular metal
baking pan and dust bottom and sides with some confectioners' sugar.
In bowl of a standing electric mixer or in a large bowl sprinkle
gelatin over cold water and let stand to soften.
In a 3-quart heavy saucepan cook granulated sugar, corn syrup,
hot water, and salt over low heat, stirring with a wooden spoon,
until sugar is dissolved. Increase heat to moderate and boil mixture,
without stirring, until a candy or digital thermometer registers 240F,
about 12 mins. Remove pan from heat and pour sugar mixture over
gelatin mixture, stirring until gelatin is dissolved.
With standing or a hand-held electric mixer beat mixture on high speed
until white, thick, and nearly tripled in volume, about 6 mins if
using standing mixer or about 10 mins if using hand-held mixer. In
a large bowl with cleaned beaters beat whites (or reconstituted powdered
whites) until they just hold stiff peaks. Beat whites and vanilla into
sugar mixture until just combined. Pour mixture into baking pan and
sift 1/4 cup confectioners sugar evenly over top. Chill marshmallow,
uncovered, until firm, at least 3 hours, and up to 1 day.
Run a thin knife around edges of pan and invert pan onto a large cutting
board. Lifting up 1 corner of inverted pan, with fingers loosen
marshmallow and let drop onto cutting board. With a large knife trim
edges of marshmallow and cut marshmallow into roughly 1-inch cubes.
Sift remaining confectioners' sugar into a large bowl and add
marshmallows in batches, tossing to evenly coat. Marshmallows
keep in an airtight container at cool room temperature 1 week. |

I guess it's the character? |

I just think it's neat that you can actually hunt something down for fun like this. And once you find the letterbox, you stamp your stamp into its log and stamp its into yours, so you have a record and other people who find that box know you have been there. /ramble www.letterboxing.org/ |

Wow.
The champion Rival fight music in Pokemon Red is extremely epic.

<3 You should be. Hyperactivity is fun. ... Why do you want to find a letterbox? Some sort of childish treasure-hunting urge, I guess. Also I was amazed that there actually was one in my town, but big towns with lots of parks have many letterboxes. I just think it's neat that you can actually hunt something down for fun like this. And once you find the letterbox, you stamp your stamp into its log and stamp its into yours, so you have a record and other people who find that box know you have been there. /ramble www.letterboxing.org/Oooh, cool! *checks the site* Hey, there's a lot near my home! I should check this out some time. |

Once I almost set my kitchen on fire for a project... I was trying to make some pieces of paper look old, and we got the idea to singe the edges to make them look worn... One page caught on fire.
