Return to Normalcy
Posted: December 28, 2009 Filed under: Uncategorized 11 Comments »I’m so happy to have another week off! The glamorous side of teaching, I guess.
Breakfast was leisurely…a bowl of veggie scrambled eggs.
And some really good coffee from Meeker’s amazing Christmas gift…
A single cup coffee maker! His parents gave this to him as a Christmas present, and by default, I also got a fantastic gadget.
I ran errands and made some cookie dough (more on that later), took Punky for a snowy walk, and then came home for a nice sit-down lunch – which I hadn’t had in a while.
Turkey sandwich with hummus, cucumbers, and lettuce.
A crispy gala and a chocolate peppermint cookie!
Yum, yum, yum. After Mexico, then two Christmas celebrations, it feels good to be eating my normal food again.

Tonight, I am having seven friends (most of which I have known for 15 years or more!) over for a cookie decorating party. I am also making a white chicken chili for dinner. I plan on a lot of hugging and laughing…and don’t worry; I will be back with a full mouth-watering recap tomorrow!
Happy Monday!
