(And if you've ever watched "Dexter's Laboratory," you'll know where that title comes from. *hee*)
I got some unexpected gifts for my birthday yesterday. Since I couldn't find a purse I liked when I went shopping with Mom and Gramma Julie on Saturday, Mom ended up getting me this:
It's so amazing. Alton Brown is my homeboy. (They showed the Christmas Cookie episode yesterday!!! Now I have to try making those chocolate-peppermint swirl cookies!) But I especially want to try my hand at Alton's version of cornbread and buttermilk biscuits. Maybe show Dad a thing or two about that Southern cookin'.
And I really didn't expect anything from Kevin's mom, but she got me The Dark Knight on Blu-Ray. AWESOME. So I've been sitting here, watching the "Batman Tech" and the "Batman Unmasked" features. Which is why I say "Today is a fine day for science!"
Other than that, my birthday (and today) was been pretty low-key. Right now, it's crappy outside. It's cold and windy and raining/snowing/sleeting.
