I arrived in Chicago last night and was greeted by beautiful lights all over the city. I love Christmas lights.

My first stop was Edwardo’s Natural Pizza. I had the special, stuffed. It was magical. Mmmm Pizza.

This morning I am off to ALA HQ where we are going to dream big about the web site. Wish us luck!

Today, a couple of my friends and I are participating in a family tradition of mine, Baking Day. It is the day you spend baking many varieties of goodies to disperse upon friends and neighbors because Lord knows you do not need to eat all that junk yourself. My recipes for the day include Pecan Crisps, Molasses Cookies, Date Bars, and Kolaches (the real kind with fruit). My friends are bringing recipes with them as well.
There is wassail a-brewing, nog in the fridge, and rum to make everything extra tasty. It is going to be a great day.
