OK, a bit late but:

1) The universe handing me someone who fits all my “checklist items” for a potential primary partner. Way too soon to see if it works out that way, but the similarities between him and my list are quite the wink from a playful universe in any case LOL!

2) Getting my back tatt worked on again. I have an amazing friend doing the work, and it’s one of the things I am happiest about in 2010. :-D

3) Listening to my older daughter (7) explain to the younger one (5) that yes, piercing your ears hurts, BUT if you focus on it it’s “OUCH OUCH OUCH” but if you think instead about other, fun, things, it becomes a tiny voice in the back of your head just saying “ouchity”.

@Court – Heidi Swanson has a great vegan mayo recipe that uses very little oil, if you’d like me to forward I can do so later when I have her cookbook on hand!

@ Sara – Just give him a few decades. ;-)

@ Allison – I’m excited to read your Portland post!

@ Melisa – Wonderful intention for 2011 – let me know if I can help/support in any way!

@ Rebecca – Good for you! I know that the holidays can be hard but it sounds like you’ve got a great attitude. I say spoil yourself silly and soak up the lovely solitude with long baths and good books and fancy wine!

@ Joselle – Congrats on the finals and yay for the A, that’s great! Also, I’ve got a guest post going up on CrazySexyLife next month, w00t! =D

@ Meghan – Ooh, once again I’m jealous of the cross country train adventure! Some day I’ll do that . . . enjoy P-town!

@ Nahui – omg thanks for the recipe, I must try this!

@ Sarah – Oh yay, that;s so awesome! Let me know if you have any questions re: veganism. =)

@ RK – I always love stuffed mushroom caps! Easy and perfectly sized. Plus, you know, DELICIOUS!

@court: really simple. One part soy milk with two parts olive or sunflower oil (warning: it’s not healthy, but we’re talking about mayo so I wouldn’t expect it to be!) some lemon juice and garlic and mix in a blender. It thickens right away!
I don’t know if it is as good as commercial vegan mayo, but were I’m living now I can’t find any, so this really does the trick.

@Nahui- any interest in sharing the vegan mayonnaise recipe?

Does anyone have any good appetizer ideas? So many holiday parties and I’m drawing a blank as to what to bring….

1. Winter break for my daughter.
2. Long mornings staying in jammies and watching cartoons with the kids.
3. African tea….seriously the best!

#1: being inspired by your blog to spend hours in the local library/Borders/the local second-hand book store trawling through all books on veganism I could find. Man, it makes a hard case to ignore.

That’s been my major obsession this week… and giving a bunch of home-made cleaning product recipes a whirl with great success (hello cold cream, you save me $40…)!

1. Making vegan mayonnaise. It never occurred to me that it could be so ridiculously easy.
2. Chickpeas
3. Planning Christmas dinner. Yay for three-course dessert.
