Happy New Year!!

I don't exactly celebrate and I have 5 more hours of this year staring me down. I'm saving up all my energy for this weekend, I don't need to wear myself out with parties tonight. We just had a little pizza and we'll probably watch some bad TV.

Best of luck with that whole skiing thing. I shudder at the thought of that much time out in the cold, but I promise to have a cup of hot chocolate tomorrow and think of you. While I don't understand the draw, I'm thrilled for you that you're going to be doing something you so clearly love so much.

Not sad to see 2012 in the rear view -- but it did have a few wonderful moments -- good health for all in 2013!!!

..........and with that, K found herself barraged with 268 PMs....

(and possibly a mild case of C from 5 kinds of cheeses!!!!!!!!!!!)

[Celiac Mindwarp]

Wow, Karen, you weren't joking on the cheese thing .

For the record, Irish and I agreed to start on 2nd, so your cheese taunts mean nothing (yet....). Can you imagine anything more hilarious than the 2 of us keeping each other on the straight and narrow?!

Back afore Xmas, I found a bread item I hadn't seen before from a bakery whose bread I buy (BakeWorks), described as pull-apart rolls, and they looked good (partially baked, reheat-type thing) so I grabbed some (there was only one package) and then we didn't need them at Christmas. We had them last night with venison stew and O.M.G. -- it was pure heaven!!! Baked them for only 5 mins, and they were brown with a tender crisp crust and a soft inside the texture of real bread and the flavor was just right and oh, shoot, have not seen them again or I would definitely buy more. And containing the usual culprits - tapioca, potato, brown and white rice, guar gum, How'd they do dat?? Good news is that there are two left and I'm trying to decide what to squander mine on!
