My Christmas present was, I think you'll agree, AWESOME:

James was unaware of the rule that all coloring books must be colored with the 64-crayon Crayola set (you all know about that rule, right?), so he rushed out and got me one so I could play with my new toy:

A close-up of my work in progress. [Edit: I didn't realize until right this second that my color scheme essentially matched the cover choices. I am so suggestible!]:

And now, the food. I intended to take lots of photos of the full table, but this is as far as I got:

I did get some shots of the food, though. Pork roast:

Stuffing (vegan; recipe at http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-detail.asp?recipe=2634708 ):

Salad (vegan; recipe at http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-detail.asp?recipe=2634741 ):

Rolls (vegan; basic white bread with water and olive oil instead of milk and butter):

Pie (vegan; used this recipe, but left out the butter, used 1 cup of sugar, and used vanilla extract instead of almond extract:

And a bonus pic James sneaked, of me hiding in my blanket fort:

Pretty damn good day. (Well, the coloring was a few days ago, but still. Christmas present is Christmas present.)
