Cold

Right now, it is just bitter cold in Boston. Bitter cold. Six degrees this morning, that is 26 degrees below freezing. Going outside feels more akin to jumping in an ice bath. The cold goes through all my clothes and skin, and settles into my bones. Brrrrr.
I miss you California!

Laduree



The first week of December, my mom (and Jan) flew out and we took the train to NYC! Wee! Christmas in New York! We stayed in Time's Square, went to the Radio City Rockettes Christmas Spectacular, The NYC Ballet of The Nutcracker, The Museum of Natural History, shopping, a little more shopping, eating, and... Laduree! It was so nice to see those fluorescent macarons sitting on my hotel dresser, just like times of yore. You better believe I ate them up without any hesitation at all! Mom and Jan tried to muster up the self discipline to bring some home. I can't say either of them succeeded, however.
