Looking back at 2012

Also, this donkey has nothing to do with anything, I just really liked it. So cute. Look at it: just look at it! It’s a leather DONKEY.

Coffee

After the excitement of last week, this week was fairly quiet. Well – mostly. Work was busybusybusy. But that doesn’t lead to exciting eating, so this week’s post is mostly about random stuff I ate. (And it does get a bit random.)

Ham, egg and broccoli

Hello! Another week down, another week closer to Christmas. EEP!
