Family Chanukah party

Every year I dread the family Chanukah party with less and less reason to do so. This year, I had fun.

( So many presents! )

Finished.

yuletide story is completed, beta'd and uploaded.

(Much, much thanks to my beta readers, who were all tremendously helpful. Also, Wikipedia is a tremeondous tool.)

So. Other than one more dinner with my inlaws on Wednesday and five more nights of lighting, my holiday stuff is done. YAY!

Cookies Torture

One of our subcontracters sent over a tray piled high with Italian cookies. It's sitting right next to my desk and looks and smells *delicious.*

And they're full of sugar and not kosher, so doubly forbidden.
