Growing up as a kid in Africa . . .
it affects the vocabulary sometimes.
Just a few minutes past midnight as we sludged in the New Year together as a family, my 14-yr-old-daughter
[& our resident-drama-queen] Tayte shouted to us all:
“Has everyone made their New
Year’s Revolution yet?”
Guess the word-slip is fitting, though - seeing as her Christmas gift this year was a home-made sword (yet to be completed) modeled after the one in Eragon.
Brian found the piece of metal in a scrap-yard.
It used to be part of a plough, yep - for farming.
Tayte & Brian are in the process of learning how to make the molded dragon-handle by smelting aluminum in a make-shift furnace [a bucket lined with concrete.]
