I have final research papers to grade, travel plans to make for a group from Central that will be here in January, on and on and on, but what am I doing? Blog surfing and thinking about food.
Last night I worked out a menu for Donna and Andrea's visit over Christmas and then went shopping for the non-perishables on the list that included lots of cheap red wine. Is baked brie on the list? Time will tell....

looks good. I love baked brie and fruit. will Donna though? :) And wondering what the 6 month journey blog is that is listed on your profile????

Donna might, Andrea wouldn't. I would which means I would end up eating 99% of it. An old friend from college days, Ginger, will be visiting the week of Dec 18 -24....I may make it for the two of us which means there is a possibility that I would only eat half.

I will tell you about the other blog via email.
