Stay Warm

I decided not to go out, but to have a relaxing day off. I started with adding a salt scrub to my shower routine, something from a Boots Spa gift pack I received a Christmas or two ago. It continued with the starting of my advent calendar:



Only downside has been the failure of my Blip.fm to automatically post to my Twitter, but I've overcome that manually so all is there now. I need to catch up on the STS-126 post-mission stuff, it's still mid-morning at Houston so I need to check what time things are happening. But for now I have an Innocent Smoothie (lemon, honey & ginger) to enjoy, along with everyone's Tweets - particularly Greg Grunberg's tweets, as he seems to have become Stephen Fry's newest fanboy :)

I haven't seen an advent calendar in years. My mom always used to get them for us when we were kids, though.. Nostalgia like whoa.

This is a proper grownup advent calendar, from Hotel Chocolat. It makes no pretence to have any association with Christmas, no sweet little pictures of nativity scenes or anything like that. Just chocolate :)
