Listening to the Ventures take on Christmas songs. Just finished eating. I was tempted to skip cooking but once I tasted the food, I was glad I made the effort. Baked tilapia with lemon pepper seasoning, peas with a bit of butter and dill, and of course, sweet potatoes.
I'm getting more into the Christmas spirit. I had a bit of luck finding some gifts for hard to buy people...like my parents. And I figured out what I wanted for Christmas...and it goes completely contrary to my earlier declarations that I never wanted anything with a cord/plug in for a gift. It's a fancy grill/griddle/waffle machine with accurate temperature control (It's a Cuisinart and I even have the model # so there should not be any mistakes made). The waffle maker I've been using for the past 30 years is becoming a fire hazard--the cord is fraying where it attaches to the body, which is dented and looks very sad.
Today I had a girl give me another (lame) reason I should send her home. She sat next to someone who might be sick and her teacher said she felt warm. She didn't go home. Truth be told, I'd have gladly joined her in going home if I could have. It was in the 60's and sunny. Gorgeous. It's supposed to be in the 60's this weekend, but rain (much needed) is also in the forecast.
Tomorrow is the St. James craft bazaar. I'm looking forward to checking it out with my girlfriends.
