Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, no sneakers. I probably didn't need to ask, since even though our sidewalks here are mostly clear, it is still treacherous crossing the street because the curbs are all icy and bleh.

I've had a hankering for latkes this week. I've been thinking about my 5th grade class in the Boston suburbs, where a parent came in and made latkes with us. I'd previously been living in rural Maine, and suddenly here I was in a very diverse town, lots of first-generation immigrants from everywhere. I'd never heard of latkes before. Anyway, anybody got a best recipe?

I am at work again today, and between the cookies I still want to make, and the need to make a gingerbread house and do the first half of a boeuf bourguignon tomorrow, I have no idea when I can make latkes. But I want to!

Flea, I'll ask my mom later. It's supposed to be really simple: just have mash potatoes, oil and sugar in hand. Some use onions as well.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

This month really sucks weather-wise. We've got another two+ inches already this morning with at least 2-5 more predicted before it switches to rain and snow combined tomorrow, and after a supposedly precip-free Christmas, we're supposed to get more this weekend.

Oh well, at least the temperature has moved up into the low 20s.

I've got friend of mine who said she made curried sweet potato latkes Sunday night and you just reminded me I have to bug her for the recipe. If I get it, you want I should post?
