This was great

Posting every day this month was rarely a chore and the benefits have been many.  A lot of comments.  A lot of hits (yes I do check those). A lot of fun.  At least, I had a lot of fun.  So, thanks.

Oh, and I saw the vampire movie.  Twilight.  I thought it was fantastic.

While I hope to keep on keeping on, I will be out of town for three days.  In the meantime, Oliver will keep you company.

Fire up the French horn

Now that the turkey is officially leftovers, it is legal to listen to holiday music.  Last year I enjoyed the Peace on Earth album.  Well, this year, the second volume is available. The proceeds go to help kids in Uganda and the music is good, so what’s stopping you?

$3.99 are you out of your mind?!?

Once is an accident, twice is a coincidence, and three times is a pattern.

At first, a few weeks ago, I thought it was some kind of fluke that the very album I wanted to download from Amazon was priced at a low $3.99.  I snapped it up in case it was an error.  The next album I went looking for a couple weeks after that was offered at the same discounted price.  At that point, I thought Amazon was reading my mind or something.  So this week I’m checking out the new Killers album and it’s listed as $3.99!

What’s the deal here?  It isn’t exactly advertised anywhere.  A couple Google searches showed these $3.99 sales being reported in deals forums and the like.  They have all been new releases and the price has been offered on the release date only.  I guess I won’t question it, I’ll just hand over my four bucks and enjoy the music.

Killers – Day & Age for $3.99 (probably today only)

Hangman

UPDATE: The winning phrase is in!  Roasted turkey with gravy.  Lana Banana has taken home the trophy!

It’s nearing the end of the month and I’m running out of things to write about.  So, how about a game of hangman?

Cookie cutters in hand

This set of cookie cutters may not be the highest quality, but it contains all of the shapes I was after and was fairly inexpensive.  I picked up this little bucket at Target today, so I am ready to rock.

Weekend

This is a short cheat of a post because I said I would post every day this month.

Plus I still want the pie poll up near the top.

Pie on my mind

Instead of birthday cake, I always want birthday pie.  That’s why I love Thanksgiving.  Pie is generally the dessert of choice for this meal.  So, which pie would you most like to dig into next week?
