When government offices work well, it's magical.

I went to the Tompkins County Clerk today and they not only solved my immediate need, but also solved another issue I had bc correct info NOT available online, AND pre-solved another one where I *would* have had a problem. 10/10 no notes.

I really miss European xmas markets.

But the Ithaca Coffee Co has a couple of shelves of euro xmas stuff, and I may have just eaten an *entire bag* of Pfeffenรผsse. In one sitting.

I can carry the pregnancy excuse into breastfeeding times right?
