Work was a half day today. I went in because I'm taking all of next week off and there was a remote chance my boss would need me in the office today.

Happy bunny day to those who celebrate it. (And Passover, to those who celebrate that) Currently I am sitting down with puff pancakes, an apple, and proper tea. I just finished prepping the bread pudding for Easter dessert and just turned on the crockpot so it can cook away ( Read more... )

Okay folks, on the menu righ tnow is eggs, ham, fruit, proper tea, and buttermilk biscuits. Who wants some? :D
