Seattle Christmas!
Dec. 25th, 2007 12:20 pmIt's Christmas! Which for me meant waking up to a clock radio alarm (I'd forgotten to turn off) of Jonathan Winters reading A Christmas Carol. Not bad. And then breakfast, and then presents with the parents (I brought home a haul for them! I am proud), and then blanching & slivering almonds in prep for dinner later (hey! My new favorite kitchen tool? Boiling water!).
And now, in true Seattle fashion, it is quite, quite definitely sort of snowing. Big fat drops of water that are trying to be white and floaty, but end up streaking the windows with raindrops and hitting the ground in puddles. Aw, this city. This weather. Nothing like it!
Also I got Season 3 of Slings and Arrows. So that's basically what I'll be doing until dinner. Hee. Goody.
ETA: And NOW it is REALLY snowing, properly! I don't think I've ever had snow on Christmas day. Really. A white Christmas. Squee!
