1. Toad in the Hole for lunch. I tried it once last winter, and that was when I figured out that I really don't like sausage. I love meat, but I think it's something about the spices in sausage (any kind of sausage) that just don't do it for me. I had an idea last week, though, to try it with the "Li'l Smokies" cocktail sausages. Because I like those, and they're not just massive pieces of sausage anyway. And guess what - no spices at all! Just smoke flavoring. So I tried again and YUM! So filling, and lots of yummy flavor. It'll be nice when I get my herb garden started and can use fresh parsley and thyme instead of dried.

2. The wind, all day and night. I blather on about it long enough that it's probably clear, but I really like it when there's a wind. It just feels more alive and invigorating. Even when it's a hot wind, that's better than stillness.

3. Finishing a Christmas present! It's so pretty. :D

Yea for pretty presents. :-) I have just one straggler I'm still working on.

*nods* Yes, winds tend to be very personable and pleasant to have around.

Also yea for dishes with funny names. Because they make us smile and generally also taste good. Two for one!

Yum! With the Li'l Smokies, I mean. I had to look up that dish, and the traditional version didn't look appetizing!

More yay for wind and cold weather. :) (Though I'm glad it's in your territory; the last few days were *very* windy and cold here. It's still cold, but it's not crazy; wind is fun in small doses.)
