Caught up on blogging while sipping my morning coffee...played a couple of rounds of 'Family Feud' and 'Wheel of Fortune' on my laptop...since our cable company decided to move the gameshow network to the "upgraded" service, I don't get to watch it anymore.
Ran to the post office to mail BabyGirl's coat...found it on the settee this morning. Traffic around the square was crazy busy...and I had waited until later in the day to go. I thought it would be a fairly quick trip...WRONG! (I do try to avoid running into the 'lunchtime' errand runners). Anyway, the box is on its way so it should arrive in a couple of days before the onslaught of the next 'frigid' weather.
The temperature was dropping rapidly as I returned to the house...guess it's coming in quicker than I had thought. My clean dishes were calling from the nightly-run dishwasher so I rescued them from their temporary spa before immediately adding more dirties in their place.
Watched Ina Garten for a little bit...not too impressive today. Put away the final batch of Christmas items in the basement and grabbed some of the dinner fixings from the freezer.
Jenny @ Flutterbye Chronicles is wondering what different things we're cooking lately. My last dinner was 30-minute easy and hubby went back for seconds, always a good sign!
I had a quart of leftover, diced butternut squash... so I tossed it into a pot with a packet of Sazon Tropical, a tablespoon of coconut cream, a tblsp./butter and a 1 1/2 cups of water...after boiling it down, the immersion blender whirred it into a wonderfully colorful, flavorful and full-of- nutrients soup to have alongside the Bird's Eyes Voila (garlic shrimp/pasta/corn/carrot/broccoli and warmed Hawaiian rolls...yummo!

The evening was quiet while I knitted the shawl I started last week, DaddySkoot napped off and on under a blanket while CHUCK was taking down Alexi Volkoff... before Chuck's sister gave birth to a baby girl while Chuck was proposing to Sarah in the hallway...how can you sleep through that? hahahah
