I neglected to mention yesterday that I actually won something! One of my favorite food blogs is Serious Eats. Every so often they have giveaways to promote various cookbooks or vendors. I’ve been entering for months, but never was the lucky name drawn…until Tuesday, when I entered to win Artisanal Chocolate Eggs from John and Kira’s, a chocolatier out of Philadelphia. I seem to have won a box of 36 chocolate eggs. Um, wow. A note to all of my friends in the area – hit me up, because it would probably be better if we didn’t eat all those ourselves 🙂 (As an aside, today Serious Eats linked to a recipe I’m tempted to try: Cadbury Creme Eggs Muffins!)

Meanwhile, I’ve been working with my shiny new laptop. You’re right, kellicjtiger, I wouldn’t say it’s flat-out pink; after looking at the possibilities, I’d say it’s a more light Thulian pink. I’m having fun shifting all of my files from my old laptop, and now that I have space, I’m starting to copy our MP3 library on there too. It’s so nice to have a laptop that runs fast and doesn’t have to shift into high gear when I click on a YouTube video, for instance.

And finally, it looks like we’re in for something like 5-7 inches of wet, heavy snow starting tonight into tomorrow night, with possible thundersnow. As this morning’s forecast discussion says, “Happy Astronomical Spring.”
