Well, since you asked:

Daughter sent me videos of the grands talking to Santa. I don’t know what Roxy told him she wanted because she whispered, but Tobias said he wanted a house! Daughter has no clue where that came from!

But it was neat - apparently Santa had a book with some info on each kid (no doubt gleaned from their moms) so he knew how old Roxy is and where she goes to school and a few other items. Similar info for Tobias. It was really well done. Apparently, “Santa” does this sort of thing every year - hired by different companies or individuals - and he donated his time to the fundraiser where my sister won him. I could tell he’s from Baltimore just by how he pronounced the long “o” sound. It’s a distinguishing tell of a Baltimore accent. (Which I don’t have.)

Sweetie, if you can wrangle a giraffe here, you can keep it in the back yard! 😉

We went to the Tequila Grill in Charlotte Hall for lunch - that tab came to $56 and change with tip. That was for a bowl of black bean soup, fiesta shrimp, and 2 diet cokes. I’m pretty sure we won’t go back there. The food was good, but not _THAT_ good. Salsa’s is much more reasonable.

On the plus side, there was enough food that I won’t be making supper. Maybe a bowl of cereal but no full meal nonsense. 🤣

But now, back to my book - I’m almost done reading it, after many, many non-reading days. Because crocheting.
