So Christmas is over, it's almost 2012 and, because I always like to go over these things afterwards, I'm going to brag a little about the clever presents my fantastic family came up with for me. First and foremost: the crepe maker! It's a CucinaPro, it says on the box, and nonstick and easy to clean, and it works like such a dream I'm sure it's going to malfunction next time I use it. I made my family breakfast this morning - crepes - and despite the kiwis being so tart my mouth is watering reminiscently, they were a big success. I love crepes. I love French food.
Next, my beautiful new red beret, which I love to pieces, and which I have been wearing pretty much all the time since Christmas day. It is like this:
Only better.
Those are the outstanding things. There were earrings, shoes, books, movies, which I am so lucky to have ("The Mad Adventures of Rabbi Jacob", a French movie, has been impossibly to find - until now!! Hallelujah!), but I'm pretty sure that I'm going to get the most mileage out of my beautiful beret and that ingenious crepe maker.
Next stop, lunch!
