Greetings!
I will sit in the "not doing anything exciting for New Year's" corner. I've decided I needed a quiet New Year's this year to horde up energy for next year's New Year's...in Vegas, bay-bee!
Having a quiet dinner with my family tonight (oops...make that "am late for quiet dinner with family") and then plan to just chill out, do some grading (because I have done none...it's very sad and a little scary), do some chatting, do some ball-dropping champagne sipping, and then do some sleeping.
Happy New Year, everyone!
Mmm. I'm still full from brunch as well. And Frances was even moderately well-behaved. No tears, minimal mess at the table, but there was some wandering around the restaurant.
I've promised my DH that I'd make banana bread if he cleaned the moldy closet. (I feel kind of guilty letting Allergy Boy clean the mold, but I'm also skeevy about massive mold exposure while pregnant.) I should really get started.
I was thinking about making brownies, myself. I may even go all out and make ginger macadamia brownies.
Burrell, we still on for the corpses on Monday?
Right. I'm not napping yet. Just as soon as I finish this cold tortellini, and my faux mango bellini (ginger ale).
I'd love to go to the exhibit, ita. Plus I realized that it'd be perfect because I could drop off Frances at daycare right on campus.
Then the timing is all up to you, mamacita -- whatever's convenient for you.
I could time it to horn in on lunch time, depending on where you lunch and if you lunch because I have to be at USC for a meeting.
Also, back from Ikea. I feel faintly ill now.
BUT I have a gift for ita!
I wanna go to USC for lunch with you guys.

Burrell, just lace the banana bread with benadryl.
What is this corpse exhibit?
And speaking of art, there is suppose to be a massive installation in Central Park in February- of sunset colored banners you walk under threading throughout the park. It looked really cool, not to mention a good antidote to the Feb blahs.
Chile stew, mmm. Though hominy doesn't freeze and thaw as well as I'd like. Still good, they just have a slightly more mealy texture.
