Merry Christmas (happy holidays.)

Today included updating my blogs (more to come), looking through pictures, a lovely buddy chat with my east coast ladies, and Christmas with Jeff.

I now own this mixer. It is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. In my life.

Also this music stand, for holding up my cook books in our baby-sized kitchen. So as to not take up valuable counter space.

And this excellent penguin-shaped USB drive for my keychain.

Jeff got a new canvas bag from L.L. Bean (size large), a bagel slicer, some camera lens covers, and a new necklace. What a good year!

Camp Waterloo Reunion

I was thinking about the up-and-coming holidays, and how I am going home for a bit, which is very exciting, and I realized that I haven’t been to Camp Waterloo in a year! A year, people! Ridiculous. Because of travels to Connecticut and Chicago, I’ve avoided the mitten for a full twelve months. Terrible! Despicable! Horrendous!

So I reminisced for a while, reminding myself of what I have to look forward to…

Crabs, and other delicious creatures of the sea…

These girls!

Family…

Hometown coffee places, and signs like this…

My home in general…

Family, and good eats.

This guy. 🙂

My momma and sister…

Of course, the whole Palluzzi clan.

I cannot wait. Family, I’m coming home! I am so excited.
