Holidays

Can you pick a more crazy time to try and see everyone in the limited days that you get time off from your job. Ack the holidays.
In a span of five days I averaged one city a day. I call it the midwest tour to see relatives and friends and then get back on the plane to leave. I got in at 2am last night and then got myself off to work by 8am and for some odd reason have a burst of energy this evening in which I have unpacked, reorganized, and started several projects.
My cookie baking extravaganza is over. I made sandies, sugar cookies, brownies, choc chip, and shortbread. I wanted to also make some gingerbread, but bought enough of that at the store that I thought I might end up turning my eyes into frosting.
Books that I received over the holidays and hope to enjoy:
Time Travelers Wife - Audrey Niffenegger
Tokyo Cancelled - Rana Dasgupta
The Historian - Elizabeth Kostova
A Year in the Merde - Stephen Clarke
Five Quarters of an Orange - Joanne Harris
Plain Truth - Jodi Picoult
Thank you for Smoking - Christopher Buckley
The Little Friend - Donna Tartt
I will let you know what they are like. :)
I need a vacation right after this vacation.
