Three things for Thursday
Here are the three things I'm loving today, on this last Thursday of 2010:
1. Sundried Tomato Risotto. Oh Pioneer Woman, how I love you. A little heavy cream makes everything taste divine. I made this for dinner tonight. It makes enough for a small army, but that's okay, because it's one of those recipes that tastes better the longer it's been in the fridge.
2. Ugg Australia Classic Tall Boots. I don't care what anyone says about the way Uggs look. They are heaven for your feet! Pilot Pete bought me the Classic Cardy boots last year for my birthday, and I love them. I couldn't wait for fall to hit so I could bust them out of the closet. Unfortunately they're not really practical for wet winter weather. So now I have these too. I love them so much, I hate to take them off. But I'd look pretty silly sleeping in boots...right?
3. Your Shape: Fitness Evolved for Kinect. I know I listed Kinect as one of my three things last week, but I just got this game this week and we tried it out last night. Wow. I think I used muscles in my body I didn't know existed. Let's just say that getting around today has been a challenge. It's pretty neat the way the system scans your body for height, leg length, shoulder span, etc., and then selects workouts for you based on this and other information you provide. I think this is going to be a fun way to get into better shape!

Over the weekend
How was your weekend? We had a wonderful Christmas here - Little Dude let us sleep until 8:30, and then we had a peaceful morning enjoying presents and our traditional brown sugar macadamia nut coffee cake. In the afternoon we had some dear friends over for dinner. It was a quiet, restful day. Santa was so good to us - I don't think we could have asked for anything more. I hope you enjoyed your day!
Enjoy the scenes from our weekend!

'Twas the night before Christmas
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, in hopes that Saint Nicholas soon would be there!
