Yum

I am making a massive batch of black bean soup and it smells gooooood.

Yesterday I canned apples and they smelled good, too.

I finished a bunch of school work, which didn't smell good, but was gratifying.

And I unpacked a few more boxes, which also didn't smell good, but was also gratifying.

My Christmas tree is up, and I think that's pretty pathetic. I still have school work I'm avoiding, also pathetic.

Girliness is back from Hawaii with a mystery rash (probably viral as her lymph nodes are swollen), a bit of a tan, and many happy memories.
