Doug and I went poking around a couple kitchen/bath showrooms, shopping for ideas for the bathrooms we are finally getting redone.  Doug spotted this display, looking like a smiley face, and I really hope it was intentional.

I love to see all the evidence of the assorted critters that are around after a snowstorm.  (Even if those %^@!! bunnies are destroying our shrubs.)

I didn’t think X would be all that difficult, and I was right.  I’m a little concerned about Y…

Right now, this is my favorite building in the entire world.

Tonight we compared 2 of the hot chocolates Doug got me for Christmas.  You can see they are very different looking. I had the one on the left.  It started out very chocolatey, but became more bitter.  6/10
The other one was lighter and sweeter.  I didn’t have a whole mug of it, but my small sip was tasty.

We were at REI and the line was long, so I told Doug that I would wander around and see if I could find a W anywhere.  Lo and behold, this folding camp chair fit the bill nicely.

The shelter I volunteer with is having a fundraiser, partnered with See’s Chocolates.  So of course I had to order some.  For the kitties.  Not FOR the kitties.  You know what I mean.

 

This was our first snowfall that really needed a shovel.  Fortunately, it wasn’t a whole heck of a lot.   It sure is pretty.  I just wish we can train it to stay off roads and walkways.

We had friends over last week and tried out our recently acquired fondue pot.  There was a good bit leftover, so Doug turned it into individual servings, and we had that for dessert.  Very tasty.

I had an appointment in Boston this afternoon, and with the way the train schedule works, I arrived quite early and had some time.   There’s an interactive art exhibit around the city, so I wandered around looking for the various exhibits.  The tall flowers were fun–you press buttons and they light up and play music. But I really got a giggle from the Kraken in the office building.
