YAY BRUTUS IS BETTER!!!!
Jeff called this morning to say that he meowed for some food and has kept it all down. We're really hoping he's turned the corner here!
I didn't write any holiday cards out yesterday. Bad me. I must do that today! Now, even!
I did bake three out of six sets of cookies. I'll do the rest today. I'm also going to run to JoAnn's in Ballard after meeting Kirsten for lunch, and then hopefully do a lap around Greenlake, come home and finish the other three sets of cookies and have them packed and ready to go by tomorrow. Wooo.
I also need to wrap Kirsten's birthday present. I'll have to deliver her cookies via Amy T. tomorrow since I'm not freaking done yet.
And I forgot to hit send, so I just got back home!
JoAnn's had all the cookie tins I needed, in the right sizes, so yay! I had a great time lunching with Kirsten at Paddy Coyne's. I hauled my ass to Greenlake, where it was bone-chillingly windy and cold. But I ran into Lisa, running around with Keaton! So that was very cool!
I'm going to finish baking and then write holiday cards out. Tomorrow I have lunch with Amy T. and I need to buy presents for all the babies. I totally forgot to buy presents for the nine million people I know who have recently acquired offspring. Eek. I need to hit U Village tomorrow anyway, so I'll buy books for the wee ones. Hopefully I'll actually start Milo's quilt some time this year. It's all ready to go, just need to get my machine on line.
I've also decided to try my hand at making preserves this year. So once today's cookie batches are done and packed, I'm going to make a batch of oatmeal raisin for my big brother J and then also these nectarine preserves I just found a recipe for. And also also maybe this cardamom coffee cake. For I AM INSANE.
Anyhow. I wish I had a fire log, dammit. I so regret not buying a case of Java Logs at Whole Foods when Jeff and I went. Maybe I'll trek over to Safeway and buy one for tonight. It's my only night at home this week and it would be rather serene to sit in front of the fire accomplishing things.
Okay, enough babble! I need to get it together here!
