Winter’s nap on Mt. Otis

by · December 24, 2007

Let’s be honest with ourselves here. I’ve woken up in a really ugly mood for the last few days and had no real excuse for it. Today, I woke up at 7:45am when my kid decided it was time to play drums. I figured it was time to wake up in a bad mood again.

And then I didn’t.

And so begins the next 36 hours of holiday goodness. I’ve started getting gifts together. I have a turkey ready to brine and a ham ready to glaze. I’m going to make some bisque for dinner tonight before I settle into Santa assembly-mode (which reminds me, I need to chill some beer).

So, enough for the blogging for a few days.

I’m ready to see some eyes light up.

    Nice thoughts. And nice job on the wife’s blog look. You’re an awesome husband.

    Can you teach mine to cook? Those words . . . “turkey ready to brine, . . . make some bisque” . . . those will never come out of DrChako’s mouth. Why is it I can find a good man, but never one who can cook?

    Happy Holidays, friend.
