Tuesday evening greetings!

What makes me giddy and happy is clapping and waving and big smiles from our happy little girl.

Works for me, too!

Our happy girl is 8 months old today and we have 8 inches of snow to match. That’s a lot of snow for around here.

I can't even boost posts on the business pages I run. They are disgusting.

Picked up packages and ate another mediocre Japanese meal - I'm done with Japanese for a VERY long time now.

If someone could go onto the Kritzerland Upstairs at Vitello's page and find the latest post with our flyer and then put the YouTube link in the comments.

This last bit, immediately above, is done, at any rate.

And it looks like vixmom isn't getting this one!

And there was great rejoicing

I just added the thing about the Zoom Meeting/Party.

I shared Hartley's post about the show.

Went out to dinner tonight with a friend to celebrate Christmas and life and whatever. I hope I don't sneeze for the rest of the night.

Dinner was on the San Antonio Botanical Gardens restaurant patio and the temperature was a little chilly, in the low 60s and upper 50s, but we had a patio heater to make things nice. Daffodils were already in bloom. And the setting was tranquil. Birds singing all around.

A lot of the herbs grown there were featured in the food, which include plenty of mezze options that we split. We had bruschetta with a parsley salad and roasted tomatoes on it, fried rice balls, roasted garlic and toast, lebneh with a green olive-celery salsa on top, naan topped with herbs and spices, and a grilled cheese sandwich topped with tomato jam. Lots of carbs, lots of good flavors.

We shared a plate of lamb meatballs over a warm dip seasoned with raz al hanout for the main course.

Dessert for me was a raspberry panna cotta, which had great flavor but was too dense to be, texturally, a good panna cotta. Gail had a dessert cocktail that Jane would have hated. It was a Brandy Alexander with, you guessed it, hazelnut flavoring added.

It was just nice to spend time with another human being for a little while.

And it wasn't that expensive. I just don't eat like that anymore.

As I was reading this, I thought that you were going to say that it had actual hazelnuts in the drink!

Time to leave work.

Until later.

Hello, everyone.

Glad to hear that Larry now has a new cell phone and that the shopping trip is behind you. What did you buy?

Tacocat spelled backward is still Tacocat.

I do wonder about pet parents who feel compelled to do these sorts of things. I may be in the minority.

My quote becomes more true everyday.

You're not referring to the space lasers, are you?

There used to be a restaurant near Santa Barbara called, I think, The Ranch or The Ranch House, that was set in an herb garden. There were only two seatings, which allowed for a leisurely meal and a stroll through the garden. The food was quite good, too. Jane, do you know of it?

Yes, I know what you mean. I find myself talking more with people I hardly know. I think many of us are conversation-starved. It'd be even worse without HHW.
