My boss was in a good mood this afternoon - he came out of a performance review rating meeting saying that he got everything he wanted - so hopefully that means I got my exceeds expectations and a good bonus in March
No eggs again today - c'mon Girls, I've got lemon curd to make this weekend! I think that I'll have to buy eggs for baking :eek:
