Whoever said that you can't make Christmas goodies after Christmas?  These are mocha chocolate truffles...


Yes, I ate one.  Or two.

Merry Christmas! Good Savior who came to this world as a baby to bring salvation and peace, to make us right with God.  Good Love that overflows into all the world to show us a different way.  May your Christmas be filled with blessings, family, friends, love, and life!


This is the perfect moment.

Facebook has not stopped me from sending out a Christmas photo!  I love getting Christmas photos from family and friends-- or I'd duck tape my laptop to the refrigerator with the screen open to all of your Facebook profiles.  Yes, I would.

It's the first day of winter and the temps are supposed to get way down in the upper 20's tonight! Brrrrr!!! (That is said with a little bit of sarcasm.)

I love my AGC gals!  Pumpkin in a glass.  Liquid Red Hots.  That's all I'm going to say...

Whoa buddy! I'm slacking off with the photo posting!  Trivia night on the East side!  China provides over half the world's supply of pigs and "muselet" is the wire that covers the cork on a champagne bottle.  But this is the photo I took-- the candle on the bar.

Tonight I knocked out one more of my 30x30 list-- learning a martial arts!  Through Groupon, I bought 5 lessons at a martial arts studio and took a Muay Thai class tonight-- a form of kickboxing.  After an hour long workout kicking and punching, and absorbing my workout partner's kicks and punches, I was jello.  Bringing out the inner tigress!  On to jiu jitsu!

This is the guy who I've been in a relationship with for almost 5 years and he stays faithful and loyal, and ever soft!  I'm glad Duncan was with me this evening... he's a good dog and I'm grateful for him.

Tulips in December... I think that will be the name of my first album. Or book.  Or band name.  Or coffee shop.  Hmm... or song.

Christmas party on the town!  Chateauneuf du Pape (wine), New York pepper steak, oysters in the shell, lobster garlic mashed potatoes, and creme brulee (just to mention a few).

Mom started the tradition years ago to make homemade pizza on tree decorating night, so I made homemade pizza tonight!  And I was going to decorate the tree, but now it's almost 10:30pm...


But the pizza was sure fabulous!

So, remember how I said before how I want to learn how to make good soup this winter?  Here's my half-hearted attempt from tonight.  This is called: I'm Hungry And It's Late Soup
A few small potatoes baked in the microwave; several spoonfuls of cooked lentils over the potatoes; a half of an avacado sliced; smother with tomato soup from a box (the organic free-range kind).  Microwave for 3 minutes. Top with freshly ground pepper and sea salt.

If books are your friends like they are to me, you'll understand it's pretty exciting when a friend says she went through her bookshelf and wanted to get rid of a bunch of books and wonders if you want them. Yes, please. 


So, I too, have a bunch of books to get rid of.  Anyone want to look through them?

Christmas tree time!  Tarah and I had a fabulous time wandering through a tree farm and finding the perfect tree now nestled in the corner of our living room!

I think today's photo captures why I have felt so confused about the changing of seasons this year.  It's an odd conundrum.  I've been starting out the office window at the following for the past couple weeks: Help?

Christmas greetings and the leaves are still changing color and it's DECEMBER.
