- I am so on top of holiday shopping this year - I'm done except for buying a few candy things* the next time I go to the grocery store. I do have the added problem this year of having to put my presents in the actual mail, but that is a problem for Future Sara.
- Today, I am doing a bread experiment wherein, instead of making a loaf of bread for sandwiches this week, I am making the same bread but shaping it into rolls. Which will hopefully not suck, since I will be stuck with them for two weeks if they do.**
- Also, yesterday I made miso chocolate chip cookies and they are great.
- My mom and I both want to knit hats together, so we ordered hat yarn yesterday. Today, I am deeply saddened that my yarn is not already here.
*My sister is dealing with her grief about not being able to spend the holidays with family by pretending that the day is not Christmas but is instead a holiday she made up called St Hammington's Day. (She and her spouse are making a ham.) Therefore, I have bought pig stickers to put all over their presents and am including a marzipan pig each.
**When I make bread, I put half of it in the freezer. Half a loaf is enough for me to make 5 sandwiches - one for each work day - and that way the other half doesn't go bad before I can eat it, so one loaf lasts for two weeks. This is a great time saver, but does mean that, if I'm not crazy about the bread, I still have to eat it for two whole weeks.
