Merry Christmas, everyone who's celebrating! I have a homemade gingerbread in the oven and peppermint mocha cookies to drizzle and then we're headed to my parents'.
What are dutch babies? I've heard of them but I don't think I've ever even seen one.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

I know not of dutch babies either! My relatives are happily deep into Xmas dinner prep already, since it's All About The Food. The dining table is already fully set, with the sideboard also set with dessert china and coffee service.
Their ways are so not my ways, but at least they're enjoying themselves.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Went to friend's for dinner last night and the dudes played guitars and the other women chatted. I, on the other hand, got to watch Wizard of Oz with Gemma, who is almost 9. We voted and we both like the Scarecrow the best. Plus she explained her theory to me, which is that Dorothy hits her head during the twister and--wait for the big reveal--is ASLEEP THE WHOLE TIME. She didn't know if I'd thought of that and wanted me to get the whole picture. So adorable.

Yay Kat! I'm at the movies waiting for previews to start. Commercials annoy me.

PUPPY! We are currently in Vegas. Shortly plane-bound.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
