It's pretty quiet at work, except that we've suddenly been slammed with tons of sensitive cases that require special handling. I had one yesterday that was intensely creepy and may turn into a media thing, so I won't write about here until I'm sure. All I have to say about that is if you refuse live saving medical care for your kid because you want to have the kid home at Christmas, you are deserving of a boot to the head. Gah.

I heard my favorite Christmas song ever on the radio this morning. Whenever I hear Bono singing "Baby please come home," it makes me so happy. Pure, unadulterated happiness.

Did a test run of a half dozen cookies this morning and they came out well. Our oven runs ridiculously hot, so I knocked the temperature back 40 degrees and it seemed to work perfect. Plus, this time I used cocoa powder and extra sugar in place of melted chocolate, resulted in a much more uniform chocolate dough. Sweet. One of these days, I'll be a real baker.

Today feels happy. Couldn't put my finger on it, but it does.

It was nearly two weeks ago! I am irate with USPS right now. Half the Christmas presents I ordered at the beginning of December have been shipped but not shown up anywhere!

Oven thermometer. Best baking investment you can make.

Merry Christmas!
