we were *very* productive today! we went through all of our oh-so-exciting mail, bills, etc. we got rid of our christmas tree. we donated several bags of clothes. we cleaned our bathroom. and we filled our fridge with stuff from costco. whew!

last night we had some new friends over and played a great game called citadels. highly recommended.

tonight we're off to dinner at our friend derek's. he's the most culinarily skilled person i know. he always makes tons of food gifts for the holidays, and has themed dinners. tonight it's "hawaiian fusion", which i can only dare to hope will include spam!
