In retrospect, buying myself a copy of Dragon Age in the middle of Yuletide season was not the best idea ever. I've stayed on top of the chores and the cooking, but other than that all my time this week has been devoted to killing darkspawn. I've almost mastered the complex art of walking without running into things, a skill that has often eluded me in my previous attempts to become a gamer. And I want Alistair to be my hapless dorky sword-swinging BFF. *hearts*

We are gearing up for epic amounts of Yule-related cooking here. Next week is the traditional (three years counts as a tradition, right?) week for baking ALL THE COOKIES, which will then be boxed up to give away to all and sundry. I have also been informed today that, since my aunt is having a bunch of dental work done and my other aunt hurt her arm - and since we apparently did such a good job on Thanksgiving - my dad and I are now In Charge Of Tamale-Making. A weighty obligation indeed, since we not only have to meet the very high expectations of my grandma, but all the far-flung relatives who expect to be gifted with frozen tamales to enjoy the rest of the year. But no pressure! At least my mom only wants me to help her make jambalaya.
