We had dinner at Jaleo (high-end Spanish) on Saturday, dinner at Pizza Rock last night, and I'm making cola-braised short ribs with Parm risotto a la The Bear today. Pretty good food weekend.

Happy hols, one and all

First gift was the cat managing to clog his automatic litterbox.

From there, a Citidel Boss Hog semi-auto 12 gauge, and a DJI quadcopter drone.

Our dog must've eaten some deer **** or something last night, because she puked twice and **** her cage this morning.

Merry Christmas indeed.

Put the shotgun on the drone. Air support.

I got a shop vac, a crepe maker to help with my signature dish. Raspberry Crepes with creme fraiche, and two Ahmad Jamal live albums.

I may go buy myself a CX-50 this week.

I got a bunch of cool vinyls, a new garmin watch, AirPods, some ps5 games and other random things.

My MIL a got me a custom made Funko pop of myself that is honestly one of the coolest most personal gifts I’ve ever gotten.

My first thought was of weaponizing it. I watch too much Ukraine footage.

I’m stuck at a Xmas gathering I didn’t want any part of cuz it’s all my SIL’s side of the family. Thank goodness for football and Kentucky Bourbon Pumpkin Ale to get me through.

Mrs Tif teases me because I have a few POPs, and I've thought about getting her one of herself as a goof. Do you know if it's a hard process?

That's really cool. I am not a Funko nut but I do have a few random ones (Miles Davis for one).

Merry Christmas all!

I can ask my MIL but based on her computer acumen and how it turned out…it has to be pretty easy to make one lol.

Merry Christmas dudes and dudettes.

I got a ninja possiblecooker and chopper shredder slicer thing-a-ma-jig. Used both to cook brunch. Pretty stoked about them!

Merry Christmas ya filthy animals.

Merry Christmas everyone!
Beats earbuds, a really cool spigot decanter set (it's a golf cart), a few giftcards that will go a long way toward a new 2in1 laptop, 3 new pieces for my Fontanini nativity set, and a Bob Ross 2024 calendar. Some other little things but those are the highlights.

Merry Christmas yinz! I got some coffee, a cook book, some nice socks and pants, but really the day is about the kiddo. She got some Disney princess Lego kits, a marble race game, new stuffed animals.

Despite the whole house being sick, it was a good day. Settling in for the evening with ice water and some tea with honey. Would I prefer an alcoholic drink and my wife and I enjoy our evening? Absolutely. But you make do with what you got.

Yeah. I gotta say this has been my favorite year being a dad so far. Lil mac basically hugged both of us so big after every present being opened. Despite him being up at 4:45 and on our last nerve come 7 with his tossing and turning that made it all worth it lol.

I counted my new gaming PC as both my birthday and Christmas presents to myself.
