Avery and I went to Gale Woods Farm to pick up our pork share. The barn was closed, but we visited with the chickens and sheep outside.

The iTunes library on my Laptop is really messed up. I’ve not lost anything. Yet. Hair cut. I took a yoga class and was very surprised at how much some poses hurt my right hip when it’s my left hip that hurts so bad at night.

I went to my girlfriend, Rebecca’s jewelry party. I had it on my calendar as 7-9:30 when in fact it was 5-7. Whoops. I visited for a while. She’s got lots of neat vintage costume jewelry, which is really not my thing. If it’s your thing, let me know and I’ll connect you!
Cranberry Compote
1 cup fresh cranberries
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup brandy
3 tablespoons water.
Boil until cranberries are tender.
Martha Stewart suggests this be served warm over shortbread cookies spread with mascarpone cheese.
We enjoyed this on Triscuits spread with mascarpone cheese. It’s also good cold and stirred into cottage cheese. Tomorrow morning I’m going to stir some into my oatmeal. I also think goat cheese would be a good substitue for the mascarpone on Triscuits.

On my way to the treadmill I realized it wasn’t much colder outside than it was inside. West on the LuceLine: 91 minutes, 5.02 miles, 18:17/3.3, HR=94. Helped set up the Holiday Boutique display at Church. Household chores.
