I'm trying to decide on Christmas dessert. I'll be posting suggestions shortly.
'Harm's Way'
Natter 62: The 62nd Natter
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
One boy is up. A yellow tree frog is driving a dozer.
But did you spoil your nephews, Sara?
I got a ton of crap for Kristen's stocking. Stockings are fun.
I'm so freakin sleepy. Don't WANNA go to work. I got up early to go to the gym, and then promptly curled back up in bed for I was chilly and cranky.
Am gonna do my best. That's some of the shopping to be done. Problem was I'd tell my brother "I'm going to get them X when I get in town" and he'd come back with "I just won a bid on X on ebay!" I was about to strangle him. He was stealing my ideas.
Bah. Stupid FedEx. My Xmas present to myself is now not gonna arrive until the 29th.
I ordered it a week ago and it's still sitting in CA.
It was below freezing when I was walking in to work this AM - in Georgia. But I kind of liked it; it feeds the New Englander in my soul. It was 75 and rainy most of last week - Casper wore flip flops and a tank top to school on Thursday - and that was just wrongity wrong and also very unChristmassy.

It'll get warmer once the Devil gets back.
ION, are you sick of "Devil went down to Georgia" jokes yet?
Okay, this is what I've got it narrowed down to, dessert-wise:
- New Orleans Bread Pudding w/Whisky Sauce
- Ginger Pear Upside Down Cake
- Red Velvet Cake
- Chocolate Malt Cake
- Chocolate Pavlova w/ raspberries
- Molasses Spice Cake w/Orange Buttercream Frosting
What do we think?
my parents, the GRANDparents, did not buy a toy for mac. talk about falling down on the job. They took one I had bought and one my brother had. I think I need more for mac's stocking, but I have no interest in small crappy stuff that will get thrown out in a day or two, nor in candy that will make him a bouncy unmanagable boy (there will be enough of that on Christmas as it is).
And now it is raining.
