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.
I semi-regularly have hot dogs and sauerkraut on NYD as a nod to pork and cabbage, and may again this year! Oh, but I think family dinner tomorrow will be tourtiere and brussels sprouts, which also covers those bases. Sweet!
For New Year's Eve, I will have pub cheese and possibly pear wine. And maybe American Horror Story!
Also, I need food. I have very little in the house. And I'm really goddamned hungry right now.
Timelies all!
They let us go home two hours early, so here I am. We're going to First Night Alexandria, as we often do on NYE.
I'm at work, but we are having neighbors over tonight for ham.
My coworker and I left at 3. An hour early for him, an 1.75 hours early for me. I bought some stuff for supper, and I think I may see how Death at (in?) Pemberly is.
I would walk a 5K right now quite cheerfully if it weren't so goddamn cold outside.
Well, I was going to make dal, but I only have red onion. Target had no white onions and one very suspicious looking yellow onion that I chose not to buy. The closest grocery was a Dominick's, and they shut down on the 28th, so I've decided to have broccoli mac & cheese instead.
This is freaky. He got so much right!
Huh. Not bad, Brunner.
My upstairs neighbor always does hoppin' John and greens for our New Year's brunch, and my neighbor across the way usually brings sausage balls, so I'm covered.
Is anyone making plans/resolutions for 2014? I'm hoping to spend at least a month trying Tai Chi and I'm also planning on listening to Wagner's Ring cycle.
ETA, Death Comes to Pemberly, Sue? I saw the first two episodes last weekend and quite liked it.
I'm celebrating by having my water heater fixed. Feh. Fingers crossed I also get to crlebrate with a hot shower at some point.
Feh indeed, brenda. That hot shower will be excellent, though, I have no doubt.
Home sweet home. Now I really don't know what to do with myself. Lunch, perhaps?
ETA, Death Comes to Pemberly, Sue? I saw the first two episodes last weekend and quite liked it.
Yes! I'm looking forward to it.
My workplace had a spate of hot water heater failures this fall. Three of us had to get them replaced within 6 weeks and I was the only one that didn't have a flood.
