A little cactus plant appeared on my table today, courtesy of the Bayer people.

I'm going to give it to my mom - and I think it has about as much chance as a tadpole living in a jar of vinegar. My mom's great with cactuses that way.

I also have a box of chocolate-chip-cookies-in-a-cup-with-cheese-cake-toppings which Nadirah baked last night - at a price OK. We shall not be in the habit of mooching off of our friends just because they're expert bakers.

So all in all, I am pleased but I still hope to see my Noel tonight.
