Mint.com vs. Wesabe.com?
I am looking for an online financial tracking tool, and am considering mint.com or wesabe.com. I've read pros and cons for both, but am wondering if any of you have personal experience or recommendations for/against either? (stfunfw I'm looking at you.) :)

We are home! I will post a holiday update later, but overall it was a good trip. My MIL took a couple days off (she owns a dry cleaning business that she runs herself, so for her to close the store is a BIG DEAL) to spend time with Natalie.
I have to give a shout out to granada --who was my LJ RAOK buddy and sent the most gorgeous orchids as her " ( Read more... ) -

I killed my rosemary. :(
One of my resolutions was to keep my rosemary plant alive. I bought it last spring, but aside from planting it in a big pot, pretty much neglected it all summer (pregnancy will do that).

Thanksgiving Eats
For Thanksgiving this year, we went to a friend's house for dinner. The hostess roasted a turkey (using the Good Eats brining method) and made brussel sprouts (Barefoot Contessa). All of the guests brought sides. We brought two dishes, both out of Cooking Light with some modifications.
