2022: The tradition continues.
Found a baseball card shop at the mall selling boxes of packs for $10. I know they aren’t worth much these days, but 500+ bits of nostalgia for a sawbuck? Deal.
❄️❄️❄️ I wasn’t sure if it was weird that St. Louis hasn’t had snow yet this winter, when we’re about to be in the New Year. Turns out it is a bit weird.
How long was 2021? The Bernie Sanders mittens meme happened this year.
Started the day with Kaldi’s ‘Tis the Season blend, ending it with Urban Chestnut’s Old Tjikko, aka the beer that tastes like a Christmas tree in a glass (in a good way). Not a bad Christmas Eve.
If you’d like to spend 40 minutes watching me make some tasty Lithuanian liqueur, I got you the perfect present this year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bARLJyDjY_M
Watching Aaron Sorkin’s SportsNight: setting a show where you can have characters naturally go off into a soundproof room seems convenient from a story perspective. (I don’t know that TV editing bays are soundproof, but they look similar enough to the ones at the radio station)
Things may be dark, but tonight at dinner my three-year old got to giggle and say “Excuse you, ketchup!”
Good to know the classics still get a laugh.
📷🥚🍸 Made some eggnog. Alton Brown’s recipe with Wild Turkey 101. Not bad.
Finally got fed up enough with the Monterey bluetooth issues that I plugged in an old Apple keyboard I had lying around. Should’ve done this months ago but I kept hoping the issues were temporary.
