07:09 My holiday return-address labels were printed in hot-pink rather than the requested "evergreen" - not sure there is time to fix this. ..
07:10 ...it is particularly strange because the graphic is of a tree - a hot-pink tree. :-(
07:52 I've come to view receipt scanning as a kind of meditation on our spending... more mindful of where it goes
07:56 With NeatReceipts I'm also scanning just about all other paperwork we might want to save; so much easier than paper filing...
07:57 ...but for anything important I still save the paper as back-up.
12:39 Drake did a rockin' job on cleaning our front windows. Sparkling and ready to showcase our tree to the neighborhood!

17:36 Skipping way ahead to the #bba Panettone. Drake always buys during the holidays. This year, homemade, even tho I'm nervous about it...
17:40 ...I did buy SAF Gold Instant Yeast for the Panettone (plan to use also for other sweet, enriched, or sour #bba breads)...
17:49 With purchased Christmas presents in the hallway and backlog of mail from being out of town, our place feels a bit chaotic...
17:49 ...feeling overwhelming urge to get this all organized.
18:53 Listening to Christmas music on KING-FM. First real time we've listened to holiday music.

12:23 On our floor, we have a chronic epidemic of personal cell phone usage in the hallway. The conversation snip-its are at times... interesting
17:17 Packing it in for the day. Tonight: more knitting. Gotta get the gifts done.
18:45 Normally, not a huge fan of Guy Fieri, but love his Bumped-Up Brussels Sprouts bit.ly/4ttAQV

08:54 2 weeks away from my normal workout routine - I'm feelin' it.
12:49 Suspect in police officer ambush still at large in the metro area. It's an uneasy feeling.

08:47 Home from Il giro di famiglia I'm craving 2 things: exercise and vegetable soup.
08:58 Mr. Thrifty turn our heat off completely while we were gone. This is an experiment that will not be repeated.
10:53 Warming up our place with some walnut-struesel muffins. 2 weeks out of town - boy I missed my own little kitchen.
16:44 The neighborhood xmas tree lot was buzzing with activity this afternoon.

07:33 I contemplated not sending xmas cards this year, but I just can't not send them. With Facebook, I feel like I keep up on folks year-round...
07:35 ...but I've done xmas cards every year since 1983 and guess I'm wedded to the tradition.
13:07 In an attempt to simplify our computing life we have somehow complicated it.
13:47 Fine Cooking is by far my favorite cooking mag - consistently excellent.
15:51 Been trying a new apple variety a day. So far for eating the winner is the Pinova. Looks like it would bake well too. bit.ly/jgplo

06:39 Up very early this morning (4:30) - sleep pattern goofed up I think from yesterday's sedation (slept lots late yesterday)
06:42 Now just waiting till 7:00am when I can go to Macrina and treat myself to an apple-pecan muffin.
08:36 A bit irritated that Chase OFX interface is down this weekend for "upgrades." I would guess most folks update finances over weekend.
18:29 Here' s the problem when a city girl marries a farm boy - packing when you're visiting both families.
18:33 We do this every year and the packing never gets any easier.

19:51 All went well with my Friday-the-13th colonoscopy. First routine screening for this 51-year-old gal.
19:52 The nurse joked I was a "cheap drunk." Sedation hit me like a ton o' bricks, don't' remember a thing.
19:53 Still very groggy even after my 3hr. nap upon returning home.

11:26 I've realized that I really don't like jello, even the "from scratch" variety. Which will make today's clear liquid diet more challenging.
12:06 Hehehe...took advantage of KAF free shipping offer. Lots of fun goodies on the way for holiday baking bit.ly/1RhPxY
