set and go
We are driving down to Cocoa Beach bright and early tomorrow morning, so today is the mumblelard family christmas.  We have never opened christmas presents early before, but that was not the only notable change this year. The skull girls had permission to get out of bed at eight this morning and they slept in until half past nine.  Maybe their internal clocks could not adjust to the non-traditional schedule, or maybe, and far too quickly, they are growing up.

demolition doughnut
I am eating a doughnut while watching this guy tear down the old equipment shed behind the ice cream factory.  Later today, I have just learned, I will be eating pork belly with potatoes fried in duck fat.  If someone could bring me a bottle of bourbon and a lawn chair, then I can call it a day.
