Too bad.

I like roasted cashews, not sure about gummy lifesavers, but then I have never tried them.

Found a whole box of Subways are for Sleeping - those are now up on Amazon.

Could you put one aside for me, please?

Did the Costco run.

Was the store packed? The one in Marina del Rey is ALWAYS busy. I can't imagine going there the week before Christmas.

This evening we went to a Mexican restaurant for dinner. The guacamole was excellent. I had a spinach enchilada in a soft red pepper tortilla topped with cheese and a creamy cilantro sauce. Once I removed most of the sauce I could taste the flavor of the red pepper tortilla.

that sounds good. I like cilantro, but not everyone does. Did they offer a different sauce as well?

I made yet another trip to Dollar Tree today. That store really is the place to shop for wrapping paper and such. Everything is so much cheaper. Each time I go there I say, "Oh, they have this?"

I'm really enjoying series 3 of BROKENWOOD MYSTERIES. I hope there's a season 4.

A Dollar Tree just opened up less than a couple of miles from where I work and live. I've been there a few times and have not left without getting at least something.

One engagement this evening, one engagement tomorrow evening, then I'm done with these engagements for the year.

All these engagements and no weddings, you're going the right way for a breach of promise suit, me lad

The day started out so promising

We had our secret Santa gift exchange we decided yesterday to order in breakfast so we created the list and decided whomever got in first would call it in

vixmom · « **Reply #78 on:** December 20, 2016, 07:33:39 PM »

I brought in a tablecloth and plates , cups and napkins (love the Dollar store!!) and decorated the conference room

Packaging approved. I've been listening to the SACD of the Franck Symphony in D minor and its companion piece, Stravinsky's Petroushka. Sound is really amazing on all these RCA Living Stereo SACDs and this is no exception. This is my second hearing of the Franck and it's already become a favorite. And this performance of Petroushka is very wonderful.

I also brought in some lovely Tom Smith Christmas crackers I bought at BJ's

vixmom · « **Reply #81 on:** December 20, 2016, 07:45:19 PM »

And I called in breakfast

vixmom · « **Reply #82 on:** December 20, 2016, 07:46:07 PM »

By time everyone else arrived everything was set and breakfast arrived a few minutes after 9

vixmom · « **Reply #83 on:** December 20, 2016, 07:48:19 PM »

I insisted that before anyone could eat we must all snap our crackers and put on our paper crowns

vixmom · « **Reply #84 on:** December 20, 2016, 07:49:48 PM »

Then while we ate we took turns reading the riddles in the crackers and showing off our. prizes ( I got a pen !)

vixmom · « **Reply #85 on:** December 20, 2016, 07:50:26 PM »

Then we gave out our secret Santa gifts

vixmom · « **Reply #86 on:** December 20, 2016, 07:50:47 PM »

I got a $25 gift card to Applebee's

vixmom · « **Reply #87 on:** December 20, 2016, 07:51:30 PM »

We had a great time and then the phones started and it all went downhill from there

vixmom · « **Reply #88 on:** December 20, 2016, 07:51:57 PM »

But I got out of the office by 8...,
