Last year the wife was sick, this year me n' the Fuss are sick.
There's been plenty of festive gathering, but I've only been able to enjoy half an evening of it. There has been some unparalleled food courtesy of Cousin Helen- the best roast lamb I've ever tasted, and last night an epic plate of carnitas. Not to mention her cinnamon rolls.
Infants are hard anyway, when you're sick everything is magnified...and when they're sick, UGH.
Santa brought me a bottle of gin I've never tried before- once my health bounces back there will be a tasting. Also, a pair of pants that fit, an ice cream maker for the Kitchenaid, some festive boxer shorts and a gift card to Peets.
When I was little clothes and gift certificates and hardware would have ruined the season. Now, they're an entirely satisfying haul.
the ice cream maker -- finally!
