I am craving peppermint bark and gingerbread cookies. I am thinking about attempting some gingerbread making in a day or two. Probably after Christmas I'll take all the candy canes off the tree and smash them into a dessert. Not being able to go crazy with holiday baking makes me a little melancholy.

The pain is bearable and getting better. Soon I will be around more. I hope. Sitting up is the worst, so I am either standing or or stretched out on the sofa. It's tiresome and I wish I was doing other things, but well. Better than some alternatives. But not being able to drive or do my own grocery shopping or go get coffee or sushi makes me cranky.

Also, I think my Yuletide writer defaulted and it depresses me way more than it should.

It's a cloudy, chilly day so time to watch a movie.

Glad to hear you're feeling a little better.

Make Mike stop at World Market on the way home; all their Christmas candy is 50% off.

How did you like the pretzels? I'm going to attempt molding/tempering Real Chocolate tonight.

They were so yummy - I've never had a chocolate covered pretzel piece before. What a most excellent combo! Thank you so much for them.

I love World Market's candy section.

The one time I ever did a fic exchange my writer defaulted, and I got a fill-in of a fabulous little story by a BNF. So, y'know, that might still work out okay.

Not being able to go for sushi is making me cranky, too. TRY NEW THINGS, people!

I'm hoping. Some amazing stories come out of the pinch hit club, and last year I ended up writing a couple treats that I was absurdly proud of and the recipients liked.

Mostly I'm anxious about whether my person will like the story I wrote. It's a fandom I adore!

I am so tempted to order sushi delivery. It is expensive but might be worth it. I hope your holiday parent time is going well!

If ever you deserve expensive sushi delivery, it's when you're recovering from surgery. I say treat yourself!!
