Now we all three match! I couldn't resist after Suz and Kim accidentally ended up with different colors of the same Eddie Bauer jacket...now I'm the "white chocolate" of what Suz has dubbed our version of a Whitman's Sampler. Yeah, baby! YUM!

We shed the jackets and got down to serious business - mixing Cosmopolitan martinis. YUM again! Just a hint of sweet, with lots of fresh lime juice - delicious. Then our guest arrived, interior designer Jason Trujillo, and we all four descended into the "naughty pine" (aka Suz's basement) to record our podcast. Jason was great - smart and cool and a blast to chat with - and we all got some snuggle time with Puppy Digby as well (that is one insanely cute dog). Diggers! (For proof that he is indeed a boy dog, check out this photo...)

Last night's soup...quite nice. Will make a tasty lunch today. And that is the end of the turkey, my friends. Another Thanksgiving, officially over. (Hear that? That's my trying-to-shrink ass breathing a huge sigh of relief...)

Today, back to reality. Just wrapped up cleaning my ovens - yuck, yuck, yuck that is an ugly job. Toxic, hideous. But like many pain-in-the-ass chores, in the end satisfying. Sort of. In anticipation of snow on Wednesday (hard to imagine when it's going to be 55 degrees tomorrow, but hey, this IS Minnesota. Or it used to be, now I'm not so sure...), I put out driveway reflectors. Very exciting. Woo. Hoo. Laundry, lots of laundry waiting for me. Sigh. A bit of post-holiday blues, I guess. It was nice hanging with the family all weekend, really nice.

Hope you're hitting the ground running today, back at it y'all!
