Ugh. It's a dark rainy day and I'm all by myself in the office.
I made the eggnog cake someone linked to and it turned out really nicely. I wish I had brought some with me to work.
Buffy! If I wanted to fight, you could tell by the being dead already.

Here's a supercut of all the Firefly moments on Castle:
ION, Mom is back on the warpath, although less nasty than previously. Apparently she hadn't had her morning meds yet, so she called to wish me happy birthday and then started ranting about having to move out of this horrible sterile place. Blargh.
Oooh, eggnog cake, Ouise? Sounds tasty.
Me, I mixed up the dough for chocolate-chip (M&M) cookies last night. I'm going to make them tonight or tomorrow, and then bring them to work on Wednesday as my White Elephant gift. A batch of homemade cookies ought to win out over some other "gifts" I have seen in these games.

Jessica posted the recipe a few days ago. It is very yummy, with an excellent texture.
I think homemade cookies beat most gifts you'd get in a work gift exchange.

Our office Yankee Swap on Thursday included a jar with two dead leeches. True story. The person who stole them is going to take them back to the store because apparently they were supposed to be alive.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, and you make it with bought eggnog? That might be just the excuse I was looking for to buy eggnog! Also, I was trying to decide what to bring to our office party.

That's fantastic.

Because books.
Is today your birthday, Consuela? Many happy returns!
Where on earth do you buy leeches?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I have the admin lunch and exchange tomorrow. We are only supposed to spend $10-$15 and I have a newish hire. I was thinking maybe a plant for her desk and/or a nice re-usable water glass.

Now that you mention it, I have no idea. I'll email the guy who brought them and find out!

Yes, although it only uses 1/2 cup. You need to get the full-fat kind. I made the glaze with rum, because eggnog always needs rum.
