it's about 11 degrees here today. brrrrr. i wish i had my mittens but they're in the other car. i might walk down to cadillac and check out their mitten selection. winter porn.
i finished the christmas baking last night, and from scratch even. i've been using matt's betty crocker and the cookie recipes have been really good. two kinds of fat. excellent. i made arrangements for mary and sara and matt's family*. they're mostly chocolate, or well all chocolate. it's a very rich and chocolatey christmas. but i figure everyone else makes shortbread or sugar or snickerdoodles so chocolate is a change. i'm anxious to hear how the magnolia bakery cupcakes pinky is making come out. they look so adorable on tv. and yummy.

*for every beautiful tray of food a pair of hands has been all over it.
