Neat Thing of the Day

In my wandering of the internet this morning I discovered an artist by the name of Erik Johansson. He's like a modern day M.C Escher (if you don't know who Escher is go here). Erik's tools of the trade are a digital camera and Photoshop. It's really quite trippy!

Christmas Survery

Saw this on the lovely Janae's website and thought I'd do this. I love Christmas!

1.  Favorite Christmas Album/CD/Song?

Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas is You (watch here)

For hymns I love Joy to the World and We Three Kings

2.  What do you usually eat on Christmas morning?

If it's with my family we have crepes and if it's with the boyfriend's family something called Christmas Morning Wife Saver.

3. Favorite holiday or Christmas tradition?

Ummm so many to chose from. I do love decorating the tree!

4.  Real tree, fake tree or no tree?

I'd love a real tree but the condo board said fake trees so I have a fake tree. On the plus side we have a pre-lit tree so yay!

5.  Christmas pajamas… yay or nay?

Yay!

6.  Where do you spend the holidays?  Your own house, your parents’ house, extended family, in-laws, friends?

Normally with my parents or the in-laws but this year we're hosting Christmas!

7.  Food that you always have during the holiday season?  Favorite Christmas food/treat?

Christmas baking! Sugar cookies, butter tarts, shortbread...I could go on!

8. Open presents all at once or take turns?  Stockings… yes or no?

Take turns. And HELL YES to stockings!

9.  Favorite Christmas(ish) movie?

Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and Miracle on 34th Street (the original one).

Meandering Around The Internet

Apparently I neglected my poor little blog all through out November. Bad me!

In my meandering around the internet this morning I came across a couple of interesting articles.

Would you pay $7 for a cup of coffee? Read more here.

Apparently it's possible to refreeze the Arctic. But should it be done? Here

How's your December going?
