Only a few things were left in the fridge and I couldn't get the car oit so I decided to do some weird mix and matching. I came up with lima beans in pink grapefruit sauce. I wish the color was better in the picture. The light green on pink was really pretty.

Its so deep right now. I can't believe someone parked at the end of my driveway like there wasn't a driveway. We shoveled the snow onto their car like it wasn't there.

Walking home through a foot of snow sucked. I was the first one shoveled on my block for once. I am not even bothering with the driveway as the car never goes anywhere.

My mom kept hinting she wanted something touchscreen for a while now so (e:mike) and I got my parents a tablet for christmas. We got them the Asus transformer tablet 300t. Its 32gb, quad core with tegra 3 graphics running Jelly Bean 4.1.2. The hdmi out works great with the tv so they can rent movies on google play and stream them right to the tv.

At first we had reservations if they would/could use it but by the time I left they were so into it that I witnessed my mom try and pull it out of my dads hands to play a game he was playing, haha.

On the way home mike and I both google talked them to say we were home and they responded via the tablet. They even gave me a google talk voice chat to say goodnight.

I got them on pandora, google talk, a bunch of games, google music, google play, google earth, skype, chrome and more.

It was fun ripping their old CDs on their comp and watching the songs seamlessly show up on their google music app on the tablet.

Then we played a cooperative game of word search.

Top of my gift list this year: two pairs of texting gloves (wool pair and leather driving gloves) and the simple design salad bowl I have wanted for months. Now I am goung to need the whole collection.

For the first time ever, I opened one of (e:mike)'s cards and didn't get glitter bombed. He must have some new kind of magic glue.
