No presents for me this year. Santa found out I was naughty.
But we'll probably watch Baryshnikov dance The Nutcracker... I'd love to see 'Amal and the Night Visitors' but that hasn't been aired in many years. I really should try to track that down... It's the story of The Little Drummer Boy and the three wise guys. Which reminds me... I should start listening to Celtic Woman singing "The Little Drummer Boy." Beautiful!

The occasional piece of bacon is not going to hurt the baby. I have bacon maybe once a week, it is not a regular thing. We buy an organic, thick sliced bacon that is low in nitrates.

Autumn is our favorite time to camp. There are fewer people there, you can really enjoy the fire, and the nights are not humid and muggy.

And how have you been naughty?

That's how we do it as well, but only because we have a really big family dinner on christmas day (the entire family is there, about 50 people). Exchanging gifts in front of all those people takes away some of the joy of opening presents.

I always spend Christmas at my parents house and New Years eve with friends. We usually eat something that's relatively easy to make, like cheese plate or fondue. We'd rather spend lots of time talking and playing games instead of cooking the whole evening.

Actually, we did take one picture this weekend (and I think it's a horrible one ). I promised to remove it again tonight

I know such things are frowned upon here, possibly even BANNED!, but are there ANY decent bagged tea brands that I might try? I want to get my feet wet before I go all in on buying loose leaf, the equipment, and all that jazz.

In my cup: water

Mighty Leaf and Harney and Sons do a good bagged tea. I would look for any bagged tea that essentially is loose leaf tea in a bag. There are some really good ones out there. Tea Gschwendner has some on its website but I have not tried them. Harney and Sons loose leaf is in the sachets.

Just finished, morning OJ. I'm going to seriously miss this while I'm on the road!

In my cup: Peet's Holiday Blend coffee. Really liking this year's blend.

Tea Bags? Hey, we all start somewhere. Try one of these: Peet's Tea Bags
