"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Instead, I’m sitting on my couch eating Chinese takeout.

Like a real New Yorker!

One of the nice things about making a beef tenderloin filet for Xmas eve dinner, is having steak and eggs for breakfast the next morning.

This was Matilda's BF's first xmas with us, and I think he was a bit overwhelmed with the muchness of stuff.

He's a huge Spider-Man fan and I got him a cool sweater that subtly but clearly evokes Spidey.

I was gifted several gorgeous scarves.

Also a valid choice, Tom!

Fortune cookie #1: On Saturday night, you’ll dance like nobody’s watching.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

What a mix of specific and vague!

As opposed to love is in your future? Or as is “open your presents one of them is love”?

After it poured all day yesterday it’s finally sunny here again (one day only!) so happy Christmas miracle to that.

Feel like I should do something to feel more christmassy but not sure what.

Ooh! I just realized that I’ve been so wrapped up in heated Rivalry that I forgot Christmas also means Yuletide! To the fanfic mines!

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

Lucked out with 2 days off. Really hoping for some snow or ice overnight so I can wfh tomorrow, but it’s not looking good.

Yesterday I cleaned and culled.

Today I lounged. Now knitting.

I’ll pick up the cleaning on the weekend again.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

msbelle, looks like cold and frosty tonight and tomorrow morning, but not likely to rain until the afternoon and evening, sorry: [link]

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

I'm at my dad's, and my sister came over today. So we got Chinese food and watched a streaming movie and hung out for a while.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Aeryn doesn't like Chinese food so we made crepes! I prepped a bunch of fillings and set up a little assembly line, and they were delicious. Kids are making dessert crepes now while I lounge.
