K told me we can't give N his toy kitchen (currently in two 60 lb boxes in the dining room) until their birthday in March. WAH.
OH! So you got it! Cool! Maybe you can stealthily set it up in the garage? (I can feel K giving me the stinkeye now.)

I'm sad that there seem to be no Fred and Ginger movies available tonight.
I need to get dvds of those.
My fabulous NYE dinner was bread, nutella and a honeycrisp apple.

sara, we got this one which is not as fancy as the beautiful hardwood one. But it's also gender neutral, all wood and promises to be 4+ hours of set and construction.

Smoking ban leads to major drop in heart attacks.
It's interesting. Second hand smoke seems to be much worse than even previously anticipated.

Liese, are you at your mom's place or have you made it home yet?
Yup, we're still at my mom's. Don't know exactly when we're going to leave, but it'll be the 3rd-5th probably. Tomorrow is our normal NY meal (fondue!) because we were supposed to have Dave's folks down here too. But it looks like with health they're not going to make it over.
Then Friday with D.'s brother & sister. Saturday maybe a couple of other friends. But I'm ready to be home soon, I think. We'll just have to dodge a little more weather, probably.
Rocket==Awesome.
Kitchen==Awesome.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Dinner was very tasty. Sadly, it looks like matt has a cold. Extra glad we made no plans for tonight.

This is what our dinner finally ended up being:
Roasted asparagus
Mashed cauliflower with garlic and cream (or for me with bleu cheese and brie)
Cabernet Pot Roast with whole peppercorns
Brioche with brie, saga bleu or pub cheese
Dessert was tiramisu, 3 chocolate mousse or mango mousse cake.
