In which we approach Fringe from multiple sides, rant about Game of Thrones, muse about cake lit and Alisa is a PhD student again! Bonus supplemental awards chat (but not in depth about the Hugos because we recorded before the shortlist went public) and an invitation to CAKE OUT for our 100th. See you there…

Culture Consumed:
Alex: Fringe s1; A Million Suns, Beth Revis; The Crooked Letter, Sean Williams

Tansy: Game of Thrones rant, Jenny Colgan novels, Jago & Litefoot 7, Yonderland!

Alisa: Game of Thrones; Generation Cryo; The Cuckoo by Sean Williams, Clarkesworld Issue 91; the PhD Report

Aurealis Awards were awarded.

(sidetracked: Before the Internet from XKCD)

Hugo nomination

Wow. Time has flown by!

My parents are still away so we could only hang out amongst ourselves, not having any bubs of our own as distractors.

My sister is an amazing cook and she outdid herself today. There were club sandwiches, sushi, pizza, fairybread, and so many other things. I grabbed some photos of these cute biscuits she made:

racing car teddies and teacups!

And the piece de resistance, teddy bear birthday cake:
