Growing and glowing

That's how one pregnancy book describes the second trimester. Well, we have the growing part down all right. We have officially moved past the 'Blah stage' into the 'Ravenously hungry stage.'

Speaking of food (though it doesn't take the mention of food to make me think of it) I am all set for the Christmas festal board. Right now I'm in the mood for eggnog and almond roca. I am heartily missing this season from the days of yore when I'd breeze through the office every day and not even need to pack a lunch for the over-abundance of treats scattered throughout the various lunch rooms. Ginger assures me that very soon, the vendors here will start bringing in Christmas baskets. I hope the vendors have good taste and bring us a sparkling array of crackers and cheese, nuts, meats and sausage balls, cookies, chocolates, popcorn, and fruits. I could certainly do with an overflowing cornucopia.
