Friday's Favorites Fare

READING:  One Big Table by Molly O'Neill   

LISTENING TO:  Bizet's opera Carmen
SWIMMING NEWS:  MIC meet this weekend 

COOKING BYTES:  It's always fun when a cookbook author visits your site and leaves you a nice note or emails you thanking you for cooking from their book(s)...had TWO notes this week, so that was fun.  

      And, it's always fun when one of your best friends drops by with leftovers from her party...cookies for the cookie loving guys that live here...thanks Katie W!

FAV NEW FIND:  Okay, don't laugh, but Swifter has a new dusting wand that covers top and bottom and sides, so if you are dusting between things, you don't have to flip it over to get the top, bottom, and sides.  Very nice.  It's the little things, you know.

FAV THING THIS WEEK:  It was fun to get back to school and see all the high school students and hear about their break and holidays.

GOING TO:  Take all the Christmas decor down (yes, it's still all up and I'm still enjoying it), Colts play Saturday, IU plays Sunday night, MIC swim meet on Saturday, a movie on Sunday, hopefully a Twitterbake/cook somewhere along the line...and probably tuck in as much reading as possibly on these cold days and cold dark nights.

PRAYING FOR:  Prosperity, Health, and Happiness for all of you in 2011, please join me.
