    This was taken in the town where I attended college (Eau Claire, Wisconsin). Sadly, the poultry-pushing bull's restaurant has since closed.

    Okay, here's some photos of our tree. We always do a custom/unusual tree topper. One year it was a Hulk Hand toy (basically a big green fist), last year is was Curious George climbing the Empire State Building.

    This year it's "Sunshine Frida." I used a color copy from Ripley's storybook about Frida Kahlo, cut it out and attached it to cardstock, then fastened a strip of thick stock to the back to hold it in place on the tree.

    I'm like you, opp, i could really care less. But Michelle is very passionate about having a real tree, so that's what we get. The only part I don't like is dragging it down four flights from our walk-up apartment after new year's, shedding needles all over the place :-P

    For me, the best tree we ever had was our first xmas together -- when we were shacking up in a tiny room in a friend's apartment -- we had a real small, sad looking Charlie Brown tree that we decorated with action figures and junk from the 99-cent store.

    Total clutter nutter. When I actually want to do a project, I have to spend hours cleaning up my workspace first... or move the table into another room entirely. Still, I can't imagine throwing anything away... I just know it will come in useful *someday*

    Check out my new project, White Rolled Cookies (Sugar Cookies), documenting our daddy/daughter holiday cookie baking. I posted it mostly for the amusement value, but the recipe itself (my mother's) is actually quite good.

    Here is Chef Ripley posing with her baking consultant:

    Mine when out Tuesday. I'm hoping that since NYC is a big postal hub for the U.S., that will help get the cards where they are going in time. I wanted to include a personalized drawing for everyone, but in the interest of getting the cards out on time, I didn't Sad Instead I'll post a drawing for the group when it's ready.

    This is my cat, Spooner. He's about 6 years old. We adopted him for a shelter when he was six months old. He's pretty lazy nowadays, not a very good mouser, but is incredibly tolerant of being pulled, tugged and chased by my daugher. So I forgive him.

    We also have a Holmes Hingeback Tortise called D.O.G. (so-called because my wife really wanted a, well, you know...) Mostly we just call him "the turtle."
