and last night's dinner was another smashing success. i brined the pork chops in the buttermilk/herb concoction in my recipe all day long (you're supposed to do it overnight, but i fell asleep the night before without getting it done), and between cooking those, some quickie noodle side dish, and steaming some broccoli, i had dinner on the table in 20 minutes. effing sweet. again, i couldn't take my own picture, but trust me...i'm scoring major points these days. ;)
my friend A and i were trading e-mails in the late afternoon, while i continued my online shopping and she killed time waiting for her 
hub to pick her up for the laker game. i managed to find some things i want to use as gifts for the hub's team/staff members, while A sent me several links to fun stuff she was 
eyeing for her list for santa. and it got me thinking about my own santa list - i can't think of much aside from some tall chocolate brown uggs (shut up, i heart uggs), tickets to see "wicked", a red le creuset dutch oven, a hot chocolate pot from williams-sonoma, and this:
a nikon d40 camera. i get so annoyed when i manage to snap off great shots and they're blurry, or not as fabulous as i'd like for them to be. and this camera has great reviews! i doubt it'll happen, though. i can hear "we already HAVE two digital cameras" in my head as i type this.good lord, what a boring ass santa list. hot damn, i HAVE turned into a housewife.
why, you're becoming a regular martha stewart ;)
ReplyDeleteand get outta my head woman -- i just added pink ugg slippers to match my short pink uggs from a few years ago. hehehe.
you will not regret purchasing that camera. I have 3 digital cameras and it was worth every single penny.
ReplyDeleteA new camera may be on our Christmas list, too, this year.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had a Santa to send a list to.
ReplyDeletefuggs! honestly, the chocolate brown ones look less bad for some reason.
ReplyDeletei should post a list.
I love my uggs too :) I just got the new brown crochet uggs, and I get nothing but compliments~ ha!
ReplyDeleteI have a new camera on my two lists...one for "Hanukkah Harry" and "Santa" too :)
you inspired me to do my list, but santa told me no :(
ReplyDeleteSorry, just not an uggs fan . . . but can I still come over for dinner?
ReplyDeleteI just put down your gmail addy as my referral on ebates...hope you get something out of it :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I have imitation uggs in black.
Um...you've turned into a housewife?

Sorry. :P
I love my digital SLR camera! The pics are so much better than the ones from my little point and shoot. You will love it!
ReplyDeletehot damn... i know what you mean. 1- i need another camera but 2- they are not coming down on the price of that Sony thingy (can you say more than 5 but less than 8?)
