Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

Nice camouflage!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yup, those are the cornflake wreaths I'm talking about. With redhots for decoration!

YES! I was just trying to describe those to someone this week, and the person thought I was insane. Are they a midwest thing, maybe?

All of my shopping (food and gift. and food-gift) better be done, save for candy at CVS tomorrow. And god willing, my last packages arrive tomorrow. Maybe I'll wrap some presents now....

TJ's was shockingly uncrowded, to the point that there wasn't even a line at the register. And I'm sure I got more stuff than I needed for Tuesday, but it's all stuff I like, so that works regardless.

I believe they are indeed a midwest thing.

Now in addition to the cornflakes, we have the Best Sugar Cookies Ever (sprinkled with red and green sugar, though sadly a few of them from the second batch burnt), and the first batch of Nutella-Filled Brown Butter Sea Salt Chocolate Chip Cookies. Which for the second batch we decided they would be fine without the nutella filling, because it was just too hard to make them.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Finn's first snowfall.

Disappearing cat!

This is no good, my only accomplishment today has been cleaning the cat boxes. Must motivate.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

are the wreaths made with marshmallows and butter just like rice ripe treats?

Yep, msbelle! It's cornflake rice krispie treats, basically. With redhots. And food coloring.

ETA: Note, it's a little better if you crush up the cornflakes a bit--not pulverized, just...smaller pieces.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I am unprepared to watch this last minute of football.

Look away, Dana. Look away.

Yeah, that didn't go well.

There's still 23 seconds.
