It had a slow start, but the holiday spirit is beginning to spread. On my first couple of days off I’ve baked cookies, tuned into the Christmas station while driving, wrapped presents, and set up a little winter scene. Now if only Houston could get a cold front to come through…

Other things I’ve enjoyed:

1. Dinner with friends at the Broken Spoke Cafe
2. Reading this article about shoes in the NYT (hallelujah!)
3. Olly Moss’ Star Wars posters
