No science experiments, impromptu or otherwise, today. This is good thing.

Topic du jour:

What is your favorite holiday memory? (And yes, you can pick any holiday, including your birthday.)

In 2011,(I think?) my husband took me on a cruise. It was to be our first alone vacation as a couple that didn't in some way involve him having to work/see clients/talk to clients on the phone for hours/work on his computer for even more hours trip since...hmm...our honeymoon, probably. We went with Holland America, we toured the western Caribbean (eastern? honestly, I do not know. My sense of direction is pathetic.) I wasn't sure if I'd enjoy a cruise, but it was something he thought we'd like, so I was game.

It was amazing. It was awesome. It was awesomely amazing. I got to swim with squid. I really, really, really enjoyed that cruise.
---------------
Finished watching Broadchurch tonight. No spoilers, but I found the ending kinda . . . disappointing. So much build-up, so little pay-off. The cast was terrific, though, and the scenery, spectacular.
-------------
Sleepy Hollow was its usual terrible, glorious self last night. Old Faithful, that show... (I wonder how Tom Mison and John Noble, actual actors, can say that stuff without cracking up or rolling their eyes. Must be the money, honey.)
-------------
Like chocolate? Like mint? I do. These cookies look spectacular delicious and easy:

Just sayin'

Squid! Cool.

I went to the Caribbean and held a stingray.

Do you think people from the Caribbean come North and say things like 'I fed a squirrel!!!' ?

Me, neither.

I have seen people from where there is no snow become giddy when experiencing snow for the first time. Go fig.

I just rewatched all of Broadchurch and remembered that I didn't like the ending either and apparently I'd said so at the time and then promptly put it out of my head. Don't know how they're going to make a second series. But overall, I like it better than Gracepoint - which I'm still watching (even though, with one episode exception, is still a shot for shot remake) to see what the differences will be.

It was really good until the last episode. The conclusion just seemed sort of...meh. (Like that's a crime.) Still, glad I watched it. Thanks!
