1.I’ve been missing a few days of this here NaBloPoMo and am not entirely to blame for it. Computer problems at home and an infernally malconnected network at work (have I been Dooced?) make for very sporadic posting.
So, I’ve been pulling up some drafts and tweaking things and throwing them up here to get the monkey off my back.
2. Today we left our place about 10 and made it down to the in-laws in 3:40, an all-time record. I won’t tell you who was driving or how many miles per hour were averaged, but it wasn’t someone with a prostate.
We contributed Jim Lahey’s fabulous bread, with a rosemary and olive oil tweak of my own, and some pumpkin pies.
All the usual trimmings were there, with my favorites: sister-in-law’s baked stuffed potatoes and MIL’s asparagus. I ate sparingly and feel unusually comfortable and not bloated and HOLY CRAP THIS JUST BECAME AN I ATE SOUP FOR LUNCH BLOG.
