I’ll be over here reading & munching…

Full disclosure, I opened one of my many lovely Jólabókaflód gifts several days ago when I was in need of something sweet… I did the shake test and, BINGO, scored a box of Italian dark chocolate truffles. A few days later, I (finally) finished a book, and though I could have chosen from one of my many stacks of emotional support books, I chose to open a NEW/SURPRISE book — This Long Thread. Then, again, I went looking for something sweet, and unwrapped a container of chocolate-covered cookies. Alas, the rest I left for yesterday, the traditional day for the “book flood” (with chocolate). I opened more cookies, an amazing chocolate bar, some dulce de leche, and What I Ate In One Year by Stanley Tucci. I am utterly spoiled, and very happy!! Merry Christmas, everyone!
