I wrote that last post because I wanted you to get the overall sense that I’m just not that into food. I don’t know if that came through or not.

I got a cookbook for Christmas, mostly because I asked for it, but I’ve yet to open it even once. Every now and then, I’ll get the notion that I’d really like to get into cooking.
Well, I put off getting a new one because I’m always trying to save my money. But now that we are past Thanksgiving, I can’t go any longer without having my Christmas music on demand.
