I'm finally getting back to something approaching normalcy - or at least as normal as I ever get. This was the first weekend I've actually been up and around nearly all weekend. Yesterday, I did the grocery shopping for the first batch of Christmas goodies. Fruitcake fruit is now soaking in the fridge, and I have 3 beautiful blocks of chocolate for truffles ( acelightning, this recipe made me think of you. I'll let you know how they come out). We got a tree and got it in the house and in the stand, and I tried a batch of homemade peach marshmallows, which taste wonderful but are sticky enough to use as construction adhesive. Today we decorated the tree. And I couldn't resist the opportunity to humiliate the cat. It would have been so much better if only I'd picked her up a reindeer-horn headband first.
