Merry Christmas!

Matt and I were very spoiled this Christmas.


Mom went overboard, giving me a cast-iron skillet, a quiche pan, a cupcake calendar, four long tank tops (I wear them nearly every day. Who wants to see my backside hanging out??), a subscription to a knitting magazine, the "Call Me Crazy" CD... but my absolute favorite is my Williams-Sonoma Paris cookbook. I've been reading through it every night since.


Bob got me a pink Ravens mug, a tear-off daily poetry calendar, and gold hoop earrings I've worn every day so far. Shannon gave us B&BW foaming hand wash and a vanilla cupcake candle... yum! GJ got me several boxes of organic tea. (Nighty-Night is my favorite.)


Matt got me a set of eight prep bowls, a microplane, two new sets of metal measuring spoons, truffle oil, French sea salt, a metal rub-away bar, pop-up sponges, Lollia bubble bath, Out of Africa (I LOVE that movie!!), Sex and the City and La Vie En Rose (which I ended up trading in for a happier movie).


Matt's cousin Courtney got us a framed Paris picture, his cousin Dave got us a gift certificate to a comedy show, his Aunt Gloria gave us movies, gift certificates to Barnes & Noble, money, and gave me a ticket to see Grease at the Hippodrome in February.

Matt's mom got me a pair of fuzzy socks and a pair of funny heart socks, a pretty tapestry shawl, Wall-E, Wanted, and a cashmere sweater. Oh, and she got us a Blu-Ray player and a 52" Sony Bravia HDTV. Superbowl party at our house!
