Updates from the Sick Bed (actually it's a couch)
I feel even worse today! How wrong is that??? If I have to be sick during the holidays, it should at least come and go quickly so that I can get back to my merry making. I've had some stomach twinging today too, so now I'm worried this cold is actually the flu waiting to strike me down. Evil, evil viruses ( Read more... ) -
Cooking, Sickness, Re-reading HP, and Unbelievably...football.
I have been pretty sick the last two days with a bad cold--had too much fun playing with the nieces and nephews during Christmas...have I mentioned my super cool marshmallow shooter? Good times!
But I get so bored when I'm sick. Plus I just got this super cool bread machine, so I've been cooking. That's probably not good because I'm just ( Read more... ) -
I volunteer to live on bread and butter
I'm making my first loaf of bread with my new bread maker. Of course, I went with the French-style recipe. I love French bread! Don't know if I've mentioned this before, but when I lived in Annecy, France--a good sized town, but not a city--I made it my goal to try a baguette from every bakery in the town. I didn't get anywhere close to meeting ( Read more... ) -

Now I'm ready for a nap. Love days like this.
Merry Christmas! -

A long-winded random thought
Today was a testing day at school, the second of three that we are having this week. What this means for me is that I spent most of the morning either monitoring kids at the bathrooms or covering classes so that teachers get their breaks. Then in the afternoon, in the library I get the leftover kids who're still testing--because this is not an ( Read more... ) -
New Year's Resolution in December
I've decided to make a New Year's Resolution a month early. I'm really bad about reading only the books that look interesting to me, and not giving anything else a chance. That's fine for my own pleasure reading, but for school, I need to read a wide variety of books. On top of that I need to get the Lone Star books read as soon as possible, so ( Read more... ) -
Twilight Saga Music--LOVE
As I was running around shopping on Black Thursday, I came across the New Moon Score for a dollar less than it is on Amazon. This particular CD has been on my wishlist for two or three months now, so a dollar was definitely reason enough to snatch up a copy right then. Now I have two CDs for each of the movies that have come out. I listened to ( Read more... ) -
Black Friday 2009
Am I the only one who thinks that maternity pants would be ideal for Thanksgiving? Every year, I tell myself that I will not over indulge, and every year they bring out all my favorite foods plus four different kind of desserts. Who could resist such fabulousness? Thanksgiving went well. The biggest problem being what to do with all the ( Read more... )
