Remember last year when I went insane and wrote a post a day for the 25 days prior to Christmas?
I’m doing it again this year.
While you reflect on my poor decision making, here’s the 25 (technically 26 because one was a two-parter) posts I did last Christmas.

And there it is. Last year’s 25 (but really 26) posts. And to think, soon it’ll be 50 (but really 51).
Keep eating and asking, my friends.

I was going to spend the next 3 1/2 weeks watching all 14 seasons of Law&Order SVU and learning to speak Italian, but instead I think I’ll read your 25 posts.
Oy…I did some pretty poor planning with this one. Hopefully I’ll survive.

Just found your blog and I thought ‘Just in time!’ Looks like I need to keep a stash of cake at home before I read the posts. Bring it on!
Excited you found it! Enjoy
