Two boxes out the door this morning with my tiny Vietnamese mail carrier who looked more like an eskimo with his heavy jacket and faux fur lined hood. I know I lost money on one of the items, something I bought deeply discounted years ago then decided not to use myself. But after a while it isn't about the money, it's about getting it out of the house.

I've tried several versions of a new recipe for crispy pecans and made notes. Now to see if the Interwebs offer any interesting variations.

Cold weather forecast through the rest of the week, snow or something equally slick forecast for Thursday.
