A Very Bootsy Clogmas!

Xmas eve eve...we celebrated Spbakt! with the tribe.

Tina and Tom made buttons and magnets:



Katy and Traci defied the "no gift" proclamation and got all crafty on our asses:

Traci made soap:



And Katy made these awesome reusable produce bags:



seriously awesome.

Xmas eve was spent working and then running around in cold rain, jumping over puddles and dodging other last minute shoppers to get Sage a copy of Veganomicon. Snatched the last copy at Broadside Books - ha ha! suckers!

I *was* going to make the Chocolate Bourbon Cake which I failed to make for Spbakt! but decided that Josh and Sage would probably prefer the Pumpkin Pie Brownie Tina had made for the Tribe Thanksgiving.

I was correct in this assessment. And luckily had all ingredients on hand. Even more luckily, enough ingredients on hand to completely redo the first bit after totally misreading and screwing up the recipe.



We opened gifts after dinner, because I love opening gifts on Xmas Eve.



Josh got me some Love and Rockets, per my request:



And he and Sage went in on this pair of clogs I'd been lusting after:



Sage! made! us! bowls!





There was other good stuff, too, but that's what I'm most excited about. Oh, and then Sage sent home some old Doc Martens for me. The next day, I transformed a gift certificate into a pair of Frye boots I'd coveted for years.




All in all, a very Bootsy Clogmas.
