Good luck with the party, vw. I'm sure it will be fabulous. Sorry I won't be able to make it.
I'm procrastinating starting what is going to be a stressful, long day. I've got a volunteer luncheon to get ready for and then we're driving to see my MiL.
And I've seriously stretched out checking account to the limit. Not sure if the savings will cover it--even though DH swears he's got a reimbursement check coming for business travel expenses. If they don't deposit the check by Tuesday at the latest, we're screwed. I hate waiting to see if this is going to happen.

Now I'm hungry for deviled eggs. Curse you, vw!!!!
Sorry I won't be able to make it.
I know. Silly space/continent thing.
Also {{{Cashmere}}}. I hope the day isn't as stressful as you're expecting. And I TOTALLY understand the checking account thing. I hope your DH gets that check soon.

Hee! Blame Emily. It was the *one* thing she HAD to have.
Deviled eggs do sound nice.
Cashmere, I know (and loathe) that feeling. I hope the check comes on time and that the day isn't too bad.
I'm going to go lay down on the couch for a bit. I woke up stiff and achy and it's not quite gone yet.
I am now covered in cocoa from making the frosting for the brownies. But, I got to lick the whisk and spatula that I used. Mmmmmmm....yummy morning chocolate!
From last night (I was asleep already-yay me), ita, re our discussion on plastic ducks:
Do you think this is what Kermit was singing about?
Hmm.
Um, now I'm getting hungry. I was planning to try to cook today anyway, so maybe this will help. Not brownies, though - this amazing eggplant and chickpea stew that my sister made once.
Had a strange dream last night about some Buffista (imaginary, I think his name was Franklin) whose wife had just had a baby and he'd published a little photo book about it. It was very cute. Also, Cashmere was the midwife.
Since LJ is down, I thought I'd post this here. DH is going to read some baby/children's stories and record them so that Minian can hear his voice before she's born and then she and I can listen to them together after he's born. He will come back when she's about 6 months old.
Do you all have any recommendations of books that would fit the bill? I'm going to send them to DH so he can start recording, but I haven't really looked at kid's books in about 20 years.
Goodnight Moon is my favorite children's book.
