Want a card for the holidays?

- Made my usual last-minute decision that I will in fact be sending out Christmas cards, so if you're already listed on the postal addresses post then you'll be getting one and if you're not... go add yourself now please =)

- [livejournal.com profile] popcornleader is staying with me right now and we're having a great time and she's absolutely lovely! Really hope she enjoys her week with me... and survives my lack of cooking skills. Still, she's a girl after my own heart as she's as happy as me to live on cake, so I think we'll be okay =) She made a great lemon sponge cake yesterday and was so damn proud of it, bless her! She took photos - I'm sure she'll post them ;) I don't have a tag for cake. How the hell is that possible? Me. Without a tag for cake. Inconceivable.

- That's all really. Except to say my flist is made of amazingly lovely awesome people and consider yourselves well and truly hugged and appreciated by me =)

*heffa hugs*

Cake is the second essential food group, after chocolate chip cookies.

Which brings up a question. I was talking to a friend of mine about the wonder that is a chocolate chip cookie and she mentioned that while she was in Manchester for her graduate school work, she almost never got to eat them. (As well as American-style biscuits and pumpkin pie.) Is this true? Are chocolate chip cookies really so American a cooking concept?

*ponders*

Probably, yes, I think so. My brother loves them and buys them from the bakery at Tesco sometimes, but... yeah, a US thing more I guess =)

I've just replied to your comment where you left your address - thanks for that btw =) - so let me know that you can see it all okay =)

*hugs*

I would miss chocolate chip cookies if I lived there. I really, really would.

I got your comment yesterday about addresses. Woo! Mail!

(It took me 4 tries and restarting my internet that many times to get this reply to work. Bah! *kicks the internets*)
