I’d like to say, Houston, we have snow! But since I don’t live in Cordova, Alaska, currently buried in ZOMG 20 feet of it, the best I can say is snow on the ground.

It’s movie weekend at Hacienda Elen. We’ll be checking out the latest MI — Mission Impossible – Ghost Protocol.
I could spend all day watching Tom Cruise run in a suit. It should be a little thrill-fest. Can’t wait.
Still on my To See list is: The Artist, The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, and War Horse.
You? What are you waiting to see? Have you seen any of these? Did you like them?

It’s not just M&Ms, though they are my stress food of choice. It’s refined sugar — in coffee, in tea, on breakfast cereal. Jam on toast, syrup on pancakes/French toast/crepes. COOKIES! It’s viral, I tell ya.
So.
I’ve had to quit. Cold turkey. No sugar. On anything. No artificial sweeteners. They taste like sugar, and it is the sweet taste of sugar that I must be rid of.
Mr. G, honey found this in his Christmas stocking. It came in two pieces, and he had to put it together himself. There were many possibilities. Many.
What is it?
I know what it is. I’m the perp. I did the deed. I put it in said stocking.
I want to know if you know.
Do you?
Know?
Tell me.
