It was an amazingly sunny and warm 32 today as promised. We were going to go skiing, but seeing as we just recovered from the plague, and have a big night of dancing ahead, we decided to go sledding instead.







On the way there I was reading about Anne Frank's arrest frank No one knows who really turned them in, but on the wiki page there is a snippet about a resistance fighter who had been helping Jewish families escape or hide out had a girlfriend that turned out to be a Nazi double agent. He caught on as the people he was helping, somewhere around 200 families, started to disappear. She turned him into the gestapo who then murdered him. Imagine that. Knowing that your love cost all those people their lives, that your girlfriend was the most backstabbing bitch in the world and that now you are being murdered.

(E:joe,58524) and (e:terry) and I went to the botanical gardens on New Years Day to recoup with some humid air. I am finally starting to feel better. What I really miss is fall color mode on my Samsung note 3. While the camera hardware is an upgrade the software seems like a step back. Between the lack of manual focus or macro mode and the removal of fall color mode, I just want to go back. My old pics were actually better on the lesser camera. Now I just find my self often frustrated as it focuses on something and then loses focus immediately.

My Christmas gift from (e:terry) arrived in the mail this week. Its really 17lbs of boneless procuitto. I always had said I wanted one and now he made that dream come true. Now I need to have a procuitto party and get some non veggie friends who are into procuitto. I still don't know how I am going to slice it. Maybe I should just wait for a slicer for my birthday. Says it should last about 6 months after opening it if I keep oiling the end.

It came from iGourmet which has a real interesting assortment of products. The most expensive product I saw was the Royal Treasure Chest of food for $1000. Literally comes in a treasure chest you could use as furniture according to the description.

Ready for summer. I am so tired of frozen snotty Stacy and icecicle beard.

My birthday isn't until the end of the month but Express sent me an early birthday card with a $40 gift card. Considering how almost my entire wardrobe is now from that store, I am sure I paid for it, but it's still pretty awesome. Thank you express.
