bomb diggidy and larps.

Name the objects of these pictures:




For new years eve we went out to P.F. Changs for dinner/birthday. We had orange peel chicken, Mongolian beef, fried rice, and of course Chang's spicy chicken. Oh, we also had lettuce wraps. they were the best. (Katie said they were the bomb diggidy, but that we should say something more grown up, like "best"). Boring. Anyways, after dinner we hung out at home for a while and Greta came over. We had so much fun and we spoke to one another in wonderful accents. Sarah showed us some of her Christmas presents. One of them is an awesome snuggle wrap (it's a sleeping bag zip-up to wear). You should come see it and try it on. It's so soft and warm. She went to her cabin and said we could wear it while she is gone as long as we treat it with care. Her bed is also a free for all. Oh, and the housemates gave Andrea a super cool stove-top popcorn maker and a really cool wallet from fossil (with a cool bag). At 10:45pm we went to the communion service at Bethlehem. It was such a great church service. We sang so many great songs and heard testimonies and Pastor Sam Crabtree gave a wonderful message. It was a great way to spend new years. we were at church until around 12:30 then went home. A few of us decided to play a couple rounds of scattergories. It was going pretty well with no controversy. but then one of us got confused over one of the categories (it was late - around 2:30 am). Anyhow, the letter was "L" and the category was "musical instrument." Player number 1 said lyre, player number 2 said lute and we were a little confused when player number 3 confidently said "larp." She's not sure exactly what it is and neither are we. We asked if she meant harp, but she said that was not what she was thinking of. She said "It's a larp and a lyre!" We laughed for about 10 minutes straight.

p.s. We looked up Larp on Google and it's an acronym for "Live Action Role Playing." Clearly not a musical instrument. Needless to say, she didn't get a point for it.

p.p.s. Can you identify the pictures above without googling? Clue: One is a lyre, one is a lute and one is a larp...
