My Monday List

1. What I wore today.



My back pain roared back this weekend, so it had to be flats. I built the rest of the outfit from there.



2. What I baked today.





Hershey's came out with these peppermint-flavored Kisses; are they new? Anyway, they go great on top of these sugar-rolled sugar cookies.



I call these the Island of Misfit Cookies. Hubby says they are still delicious. I had two myself, and I agree. (The rest are boxed up to go to work and to Detroit this weekend.)

The recipe is on the Kisses bag!



3. What I ate today.



This week's quiche is leeks, sundried tomatoes, and goat cheese. It's pretty delicious; the flavors are light and bright.

4. What I wrapped this weekend.



5. What my husband organized this weekend. We need more pictures of the boys, K!!!!



6. What else I did this weekend: blew out my back. Again. Sunday was a lost day of ice packs, ibuprofin, and lots of laying around, but I went to my doctor this morning and she said I treated it correctly. I have a bulging disc and it shifted so it was pressing on the nerve. I've got meds and an order for rest for the next week. I'm mobile, so it's not as bad as it could have been, and the pain has receded a lot since Saturday night. Whew.

7. What I lost this week.



8. Who thinks they are getting bold. That is as far as she got before pulling her head back in.



9. What stands between me and our Christmas weekend in Detroit: two after-work parties, a potluck lunch on Wednesday, packing, cooking something for the potluck on Wednesday, not killing anyone at work.

10. What will happen between Christmas and New Years: STAYCATION.

Guess which week am I looking more forward to?
