Well, I drank some water, made some tea (some de-stress, sleepy-time deal with valerian root in it), and stretched out on the couch for a bit.  My head feels a lot better now.  And now I'm ready for some sleep.  Thanks for the vibes.

Goodnight.


A tall glass of egg nog with a couple of stiff shots of spiced rum would do you up right, too!   ;)

Cilla, your singing was great---I just decided I'd use you in an instrumental section so the singing didn't work there.

But I'll make sure it's on the "Expanded Edition" that we will release on the anniversary!  :)

I have absolutely no complaints about the way you did the DVD, Edi, I love it... of course it would be a shame not to put iton the expanded edition, wouldn't it   ;D

Santa made some early rounds today in the offices of the General Services Agency.  There will be some surprised folks in the morning.

Had a very busy day today. Got some Christmas shopping done for the youngin's down yonder in Southern Oregon, and after a meal at Star India I came home and built the second bookcase (having built the first one last month).

No must get to bed. I must be up early in the morning to pick up my mom and take her to her 8:00 am doctor appointment.

I've friends who have just returned from Croatia. They really enjoyed their time there.  I think they also travelled along the Dalmation coast looking for Spotted dog. (almost an English culinary reference)

The evening birthday cake was entirely different than the afternoon Parisienne cake.  I don't know what the evening cake was called, other than cake.

It was a chocolate cake with strawberry pieces in the filling and a Ganache covering - hows that for a word of the day!

The cake DID have a name, as a matter of fact.  The name was Chocolate Cake With Strawberry Pieces In The Filling And A Ganache Covering.

I'm sorry, has MattH REALLY posted seven times today and then just not come back?  Something doesn't compute.

What page are these seven postings on, so I can see if something untoward happened.

all spots to me - not seen the movies either.
Be careful using the term "mate" - it's also derogatory!

I'm working on the resizing issue too! A stone less in the last month. Of course Christmas will undo the work!
