Ample bits

Another quiet day at the gym. I got all hepped up on coffee and Timbits (or "donut holes," for all you non-Canadians) and did a deliciously satisfying workout - treadmill, bike and Pilates ab sculpting. The experts say abs are pretty hard to flatten without some serious diet tweakage, no matter how much exercise one does - so perhaps I should bypass the Timbits. Especially since it seems I was gifted with a surplus - the pile o' bits looked pretty ample for the 20 I had ordered, so I counted the remainder after eating 10 or so...and there were 21 left. D'oh! I'm guessing they loaded me up with yesterday's leftovers, especially since the assortment wasn't overly assorted. Not a single cherry Timbit in the box.

Oh yes, my point - too many Timbits! Must...resist...sweet...glazey...goodness....

Have been perusing eBay for Christmas gifts. Found a few likely candidates, and some I'd like to give with love from me to me - like a genuine polyresin full-colour Ralph Wiggum light switch plate!

Eric arrived last night. Having him here is delicious - every time he visits I threaten to sit on him so he can't return to America-land. Unfortunately, I don't weigh enough to hold him down - but a few more Timbits will fix that wagon!
