| I opened a bottle of wine earlier in the week. Had two glasses so far. Managed to squeeze this in next to my computer. |

| One day I tried a new recipe: "hearty oatmeal rolls." Being the gal I am, I made a few substitutions. We can blame the size of these puppies on the fact that I used whole wheat flour instead of white. Pathetic, aren't they? I'm going to try again though, because they tasted great. Will make them twice the size next time. Still, I gave these to the cats this morning. Never could make 'em all the same size; same with a batch of bread. |

| Scott has a very bad cold; he barely has the energy to make himself a cup of tea. However, the basement must be ready for plumbing-in (or somesuch) the septic tank on Tuesday, so he's down there wielding a jackhammer. I've called in reinforcements; we'll see who shows up before he collapses. |

| The sun's shining and there is no wind, so I went for a half-hour walk today and filled all five birdfeeders when I returned. It may be 20-below, but without wind that doesn't seem cold to me anymore. After all, I wear ski pants. :p |

| Wherever I go, my faithful companion Ducky is not far behind. Little sweetheart. |

| Emil is here for the weekend. He is going to play cards with me whether he likes it or not. |
