Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

I almost forgot...I also got my mom a CD of Thomas Hampson singing "Operatic Arias."  It has selections by Franz Lehár and J. Strauss II, among others.  They're mostly sung in German, my mom's native language.  We listened to a bit of it tonight and she really liked it!  It was actually a former library CD, destined for the book sale.  I only found it yesterday and told her that if she wanted, I would buy her a brand new copy, but it's practically brand new, so she said that it's not necessary. :)

I got my sister and her boyfriend (and myself) tickets to see the new musical version of "A Room With a View" in April.  That is one of my sister's favorite movies.  Hopefully, she'll like the musical.  It'll be at the 5th Avenue Theatre, which is very easy to get to.

If you hadn't noticed, it's our tradition to do our gift giving/opening on Christmas eve because my niece opens her gifts at her house on Christmas morning.

They can't be; they're Mormon!

Yes they can.

And the Do is Done and what a Do it was - the best ever.  The busiest Do has been about twenty people, but we had forty or thereabouts - everyone showed up this year.  I made FIVE pounds of pasta - last year I made four, the year before three and there's always some left.  Tonight all five pounds were eaten, along with most of the sauce, which I made more of than ever before.  A good thing I doubled the dose of tuna pasta salad because that all went, too, save for a few ounces. 

Also, I normally herd everyone into the den, but that was impossible and the party took place in all rooms.  I won't remember everyone who came, but the surprises were Andrea Marcovicci and her mom, my neighbor, Karen Morrow and a few others.  I'll write more in the notes - I'm exhausted but finishing a movie to relax.

That's wonderful, BK!  Congrats on your very successful party!!
