I LOVED this one! But can u add some more crazy-funny scenes with Regina! She's my favorite character!

Make more funny scenes with Regina!

I love the song Raspberry Beret by Prince (RIP)

I always come back and read these fics around the holidays because I find them so fluffy and cute. I love this verse! If you ever come back to it, I'd love to see 16-year-old Regina in Hawaii with Rumple :)

that was an absolutely brilliant speech by Belle! bravo! I wish so much the show on TV let her be this way. To stand up for Rumple, to tell off the Blue Fairy and any of Rumple's detractors & haters, to speak the truth about him and condemn those who act so self-righteous against him. (even Jesus said "let he who is without sin cast the first stone") Nobody's perfect (but so many self-righteous hypocrites on this show are so convinced of their own perfection that they would have no problem tossing boulders at Rumple for his past dark deeds) its so wonderful to see someone standing up for him & defending him for a change!

What's the next one called?

Like your story! LOVE Rumple's recipe corner! Brillent! (Yes, I do know I spelled that wrong.)

So far I love it ! I'veread and loved all ur sequals to this! Hope you are gonna make more
& I tried the thanksgiving recipes and they were delicious ! Thanks so much for adding them

Now this is what I call a fairy tale story, no matter what, everybody ended up with their happily ever after even the Dark One and the Evil Queen, I just cannot wait until Cora, Milah and Hook comes in and I am so glad that Jimmy got to have his happily ever after ... These stories starting from gold standard is the only best of the best ONCE UPON A TIME stories I have ever read and I just keep on reading them over and over again, that just shows how in love and fascinated I am with them ... I have enjoyed reading these stories you have written and I look forward to more from the GOLD STANDARD continuations .. thank you for giving me something fun and excited to read ... keep on writing I believe you've got a wonderful talent and if I was related to you I would have to say that I am so proud of you and of such lovely stories .. YOU ROCK!

Um can I go to the Golds house like RIGHT NOW?! I want an Uncle Rumple! The puppet show was soo cute! And those sayings on the shirts were hilarious! My favorites were Nerd? I prefer intellectual bad ass LOL I want that shirt! Oh and I also loved I'm Queen - now shut up and listen! Ur stories need to be an OUAT spinoff they're awesome!
This GS universe is my new obsesstion! I adore it'! The thing that really amazes me is that there are so many OCs in here but instead of being distracted by them, as I have been with most OCs in other stories I've read, I can't wait to learn about them! It's like you've made up a whole other series and it's freaking awesome! Even if I had no previous knowledge of OUAT I think id still love this cuz it's the same but so stupendously different!

Omg omg if it's possible to fan girl over FFs I'm doing it as we speak! I have to confess I've been reading these out of order so I haven't gotten all the way through GS yet but I gotta see what happens now, especially after meeting Rhea! And the nod to Its A Wonderful Life is just Perfect! I was laughing so dang hard during the snow war scene! This whole fic and GS universe is incredible! THIS needs to be a OUAT spin off-all of it! Ahhhh I love it do dang much! I'm officially following you now!
I have to ask do you co author? I adore ur ideas and ur writing style and I'd love to do something with you some time soon :)
Ok off to read more!

This was so cute. And I also noticed you did give a nod to California Solo with Rumple playing the guitar and singing. :)

Sounds like Jimmy's changing his mind about a certain Dark One. ;)

Way to go, Belle! Blue got her ass handed to her!

I had kitties who climbed the Christmas tree! :) So cute!
