I just ordered myself some flannel jammies and cotton shirts, all on sale, from Victoria’s Secret. We’re going back to NY for Yule, and it’ll be chilly, so the jammies were needed. They have sparkly stars all over them. :-)

We went to visit Caterine & Emrys yesterday. They live about 1.5 hours away, and we wanted to get there in mid-afternoon, so we spent a fair amount of the day away. It rained heavily on the way there, which slowed us down. (Now, mind you, it was so lovely to wake up to the sound of rain…) We had bruschetta and garlic toast and various olives and feta cheese as appetizers, and lentil soup and foccaccia for supper. Much yumminess. I’ve been craving things like bruschetta and olive tapanade lately. Perhaps a Trader Joe’s run is in order…

Lots of things on the To Do list today, not the least of which is starting the editing on the novella. We need to go food shopping as well, and do laundry, and that sort of thing. First, however, a shower is in order…
