300th Post!

Just noticed that this will be my 300th post!

I am in lab waiting for people to get back for a seminar. It is strange that after next week my time in this place will be limited. This building has been a home away from home for the past four and a half years as I toiled away on my thesis project. I have had many highs and many more lows sitting at this desk. Weird....

It looks like I will be making paella for Christmas Eve. I wish I would be at home eating my Mom's cooking, but paella is so good that it might come close to substituting. Bonus: it gets me out of socializing somewhat! Ok, that is a bad though, but a long weekend in Fargo gets to be VERY long with more exposure. Having distractions helps decrease my blood pressure and is good for everyone:)

Well, the Christmas card are out, the Christmas tree is up (and decorated to be kitty safe). The last step is to do some baking. I vow NEVER to make homemade peppermint patties again, but I am going to try a Christmas log recipe. Wish me luck at creating tasty cookies!
