Hi, Shir! Same to you.
My dog just scammed a second dinner out of me! I came home about a half hour later than her dinner time, and I fleetingly thought that I should check to see whether Matt had fed her, but I was all, "Nah, his back is hurting, he's sick... he wouldn't have trudged downstairs..."
In fact, he did.
Nice fake out, Birdie; you acted just as over the top excited for your food as usual. Good one.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Quality scam!
Happy holidays, Shir!
My potatoes are in the oven. There's cream and butter and cheese involved so I'm hoping that works.
Everybody's here. The champagne is open. The charcuterie board is out.
All is well. [knock wood]

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
We’ve got pumpkin roasted, a head of cauliflower in the oven, and tempeh in “jerk” marinade (not up to real Caribbean standards, I’m sure) ready for its turn. Should be good.
There's cream and butter and cheese involved so I'm hoping that works.
The outlook seems positive

Yum, all of that sounds good!
We had a holiday brunch with a couple of friends, and now DH and I are watching Babe, which he has never seen (WHAT). Tomorrow we are having Christmas dinner at my cousin's a couple of towns over.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Merry Christmas, Buffistas!

Birdie will be bragging about The Scammed Second Dinner for years to come. Well done, Birdie!
I came home from Christmas Eve at my mom's house with a migraine with vertigo, which is no fair. But the Ubrelvy worked overnight and my noggin feels normal this morning, hooray!
...and while I was typing that, the cat decided to barf up his breakfast. Merry Christmas from Murderbiscuit, yeesh.

Merry Xmas, Buffistae!

Happy normal noggin day, Tep!
I'm the only one up. But I've had a slice of cherry pie and have coffee so I'm not fussed.
I woke up and realized I hadn't wrapped the potatoes, so I got right on that.
We had tremendous roaring winds and rain last night, but the storm has passed and I can see blue skies. I'm sure there are a lot of trees and branches down though.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Merry Christmas Buffistas! I woke up with a scratchy throat but I got the espresso machine working again so at least I can self-medicate with an almond milk latte.

Happy Hanukkah to Shir and NIlly! Feliz Navidad to all who celebrate! And Happy Holidays to all.
It's in the 70s here in Texas, which isn't surprising, but it'd be nice to have a chill in the air at least. On the other hand, at least I didn't spin out in the snow on my way back to Houston this year.(I was fine, the car was just dented a bit.)
