all my plans were for not today once I sat down. Aside from washing the chair slip covers and doing dishes, I got no further than this recliner, and cleaning my iTunes folders.
Honestly, you meet the most appalling sort of people....

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
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)

Our wings are not tired.
Hmmm, we always divided among the sibs only. I can see the logic of counting the spouses though. (except in my family because none of my 3 sibs are married)

In general, I find it Way Too Much, but the restaurant up top was great, if pricey.
