Has anyone heard Idina Menzel’s holiday album, Christmas: A Season of Love?

My sister did host some Pampered Chef parties that friends of her were selling.  The pizza stone that I have (and got from my sister ;) ) is from Pampered Chef.


That rings a bell.  I did buy some Pampered Chef products that my cousin was representing.

Oops, that was seven dogs.  One was hidden until I opened it.

Terrific picture anyway!

Dozed off for ninety minutes after watching some woman trying every meal that Costco sells. I'm not a member anymore, but I must say the mac and cheese does look great and so does the shrimp salad.

Given the under 1000 calories today, I'm thinking a little sweet might be in order.

Think I'll go looking around. Pie perhaps - that sounds like a rather good treat.

In other news, at some point in the next week or so, the site will be down for two hours while they finally get everything updated and move us to new servers where we won't have any of the issues we've been having.

Huzzah!

Two boys are walking down the sidewalk and bouncing a basketball as high as they are tall.

I wonder if they are related to MY basketball boy. Who hasn't been around for a while.

Donuts on their way from a great place in the Bank of Bur - located very close to where Doug Haverty used to live. I used to stop there often - it's been around forever. Even the Darling Daughter and I went there in her youthful youth in the early 80s when it opened. Open twenty-four hours, all donuts made fresh every few hours. Got a chocolate chip muffin for the morning, and an Apple Fritter and chocolate buttermilk bar for NOW.

We got a streamer code for the new Paul Thomas Anderson movie. Not a big fan of his overlong, overstuffed movies, but I think that's what I'll watch tonight.

It IS dangerous, of course, to know that it's open twenty-four hours.

Just wrote a follow-up review for Capital Grill, where lunch happened. It's quite the rave. You'll hear more in the new notes.

Maybe they should take a page from MSNBC's playbook and call themselves DonutsNOW.
