It was a balmy 60° in Chicago today so the Loop was packed. There was no way I was going to attempt shopping with that crowd. And I will never understand the people standing in line for Garrett's popcorn.

I haven't even been thinking about holiday shopping what with hovering around Dad, but I suppose I'll feel more comfortable doing so after my Christmas Club check arrives anyway.
Skipping w/o skimming to let those of you who might be interested know that Kifah Dasuki's e-book on vegan holiday cooking is free for the next 24 hours. [link] Didn't try anything out of it but I have her first cooking book and it's interesting (Arab vegan cooking. And interesting in a good way).
Also, happy belated holiday, 'istas. ~ma to all who needs it.
Thanks, Shir!
Timelies all!

So I guess this is supposed to be Small Business Saturday, but instead I went shopping in town with my mother and got amazing deals at Marshall's and Lord & Taylor and had an excellent lunch at Eataly.
Isn't Eataly the best? I want to live there.
Hivemind question -- when dividing the cost of a gift amongst siblings, are the spouses/significant others included in the tally? (i.e. 4 kids = 1/4 each, or 4 kids + 2 inlaws = 1/6 each)
