Channeling her inner Joe Pesci

After this weekends' marathon cooking session, I am exhausted.

Here's the first picture - the one that captures the spirit of Hanukkah the best in my opinion:



Work was crazy today. And to top it off I had to leave early to take the kids the the Menorah lighting in the mall (OK, I didn't have to, I wanted to).

So that meant tonight I got to work on my 2008 Accomplishments and 2009 Goals. Thanks to my bosses insistence on monthly accomplishment documents (which are a pain while doing them), the first was easy (but of course still took an hour). Now I'm left with 2009 goals to do. Did I mention that these were due on Friday??

Oh well. It's 11:20pm, I'm tired, and I still haven't written my blog post.

So, I will leave you with something that happened on Saturday:

I was in the car with the little monkey and she put on her plastic yellow star sun glasses. She turns to me and says, "Mommy, I'm funny! Like a clown!"

Yes, my little monkey is channeling her inner Joe Pesci from Goodfellas!! Where does she get this stuff??? It's definitely not from me. It must be her fathers doing.
