Chilly night

Let's not start talking about Google today - disaster :( plunged into the depth of depletion.... ewwhhh.... i need to go buy some antacid!!!
Tonight i made a Soup with ground beef, corn, peas, onions and tomatoes with warm homemade corn bread! It was quite delectable! My honey always eats with joy and is so easy to satisfy! Weeeelllll except when i made the frangipane pear tart - let's just say it wasn't his favorite... So i wont make it again.
I ordered grocery online for my Christmas bake off - i have enough flour and confectioners sugar to open a bakery! I thought giving cookies and cakes for the office would be a nice gesture. I downloaded all types of cutout, press out cookie recipes - i absolutely LOVE reading the comments and reviews of all types of cooks having their 2 sense and sharing their experience in the kitchen - what i realized was that there will always be a couple of people who just bake disastrously or can't follow instructions and their comments are always defying the recipe... They must wonder why is everyone else comments so wonderful?
I asked Tom to bring over some soup and bread to my neighbor - i am trying to have him eat other things beside pop tarts while his long time girlfriend is away for so many months. His rule in receiving my humble gifts is no mushrooms no cheese - for a French person that can be quite a challenge!
My birthday is coming up and my mom send me the most beautiful dainty pair of tangling earrings - they are really stunning! I also received some lingerie which i love and need. As for Tom he bought me my so useful blackberry phone - which makes me feel very grown up!
I hope my dad's calls me - i often wish we were closer him and i. Mom makes up for it though and so does Al her boyfriend.
I did receive a very unexpected gift - the most beautiful sleekest black ipod with video features - it has so much memory that it holds ALL of my photos and music on it! Sometimes your friends from long ago never forget you .... That's a rare trait - which i don't really have... i forget just like my dad.
