So very, very full. And spoiled! Merry Christmas, y’all!
I’m freaking exhausted from a day of Christmas baking, so today’s posting on my Christmas-baking-while-chatting-online-with-my-family-who-was-also-baking is going to be mostly photos and short on words. I’m too tired for typing words. Meringue Snowflake Chocolate Mice For the record, here’s what everyone baked: Beth shortbread cookies meringue snowflakes chocolate mice (white and dark chocolate) Mom cranberry […]
After a year’s hiatus ((The hiatus was because I was actually in Ontario last Christmas, so I could bake with my family in person.)), the Snow family Cyber Cookies is back! For the uninitiated, Cyber Cookies is where I bake “with” my family with a little assistance from our webcams! That’s right – I bake […]
It’s December now, which means (a) WTF? How the hell did it get to be December already??, and (b) it’s totally legitimate that I put up my Christmas tree last night. Totally. Legit. I took pictures even though it looks *exactly* like it did last year. Except that I now have a TV beside it […]

So I was looking at my transcript the other day, as I was working on an application for something ((More about that in a later blog posting.)) and noticed that it said that my PhDizzle was granted on November 16, 2006. The astute among you will note that that would be exactly five years ago […]
Recently, a coworker of mine shared the following video with me and I think everyone should watch it: The speaker, Dr. Brené Brown, gave a keynote at the management conference at my work today. It reminded me of some conversations I’ve had with a few friends recently. As you may notice from my blog, I talk […]
My office’s annual Halloween potluck was yesterday and, as has become my custom, I decided to make a dessert. Specifically, I decided to make skull cupcakes. And while they weren’t as impressive as the eyeballs I made last year, they turned out better than the short fat ghosts I made the year before that. The […]
