Bits and Pieces

I got a little Reverb writing done during my lunch break Plan to get all caught up on the weekend. I keep Reverb responses in a separate page. The link is over there ----------->

No recipe today. We had a whirlwind evening. It included leaving work early, using a BOGO Sonic coupon, attending a junior high basketball game ($3 for 4 games. If you can stomach watching other people's children playing sports and most importantly if you can stomach the parents, that's a lot of entertainment for just $3.), buying a new hot water heater and insulated curtains (an endcap sale at Target--they were cheaper than I could make them.), and installing a new headlight on my car (Husband did this. I shivered and held the flashlight and made silent prayers that nothing went wrong.. Because 9:30 PM is as good a time as any to change a headlight.). Also, I collected shoes to take home and give to Barber Larry to give to his friend to take to Haiti. No time for cooking and not a lot of time for blogging.

I got a nice, unexpected Christmas bonus--a referral for a friend that turned into some good work for him which turned into a few extra bucks in my pocket. Hello savings account. How long can I keep raking in unexpected money? I swear it's not from pole-work. AND some delicious Christmas cookies from Office Space. She should be the one posting recipes today.

  1. Mama Poeschl made the sugar cookies from scratch. The red velvet and almond poppyseed were from Betty Crocker recipes. Also, I never realized how easy the sugar cooking icing is. Powdered sugar and water, that's it. And it is delicious.
