Santa's Bounty Kel Send a noteboard - 27/12/2011 06:30:19 PM
It was a crazy year at our house, first year with the kidlets. My living room looks like a toy bomb went off in it, sending toy bits and fragments to all corners..

I got a pair of binoculars, a new electric razor, a watch, and a new winter hat and gloves. I got a copy of Steve Jobs book, and my bride also pre-ordered Diablo III for me. Also, we bought each other a new camera as a joint gift.

I guess I had more fun just watching the kids open their gifts.. our little boy (3) came into our room at 5:00am, asking if we could go downstairs. 5:00AM. (it makes me yawn just typing it)

Did you get your egg separator? Sareitha Sedai - 27/12/2011 04:38:04 PM 1016 Views
I did! Nate - 27/12/2011 05:08:36 PM 1093 Views
Oh. Well it's probably for the best then. Sareitha Sedai - 27/12/2011 05:17:44 PM 907 Views
Ha! Just make sure you wash your eggs before cracking them. Vivien - 27/12/2011 05:33:52 PM 967 Views
Use caution when washing eggs... Avendesora - 27/12/2011 08:50:37 PM 1060 Views
What? Why would you wash an egg? I've never heard of this. *NM* Tim - 27/12/2011 11:33:57 PM 614 Views
This is news to me too. Nate - 28/12/2011 12:30:00 AM 1037 Views
Ha, don't listen to me, I know nothing about this. Vivien - 28/12/2011 01:36:34 AM 970 Views
Aha. That makes sense. Nate - 28/12/2011 05:26:47 AM 1055 Views
That's a relief. You can't eat raw egg in this country anyway, so I don't need to change any habits. Tim - 28/12/2011 10:37:47 AM 899 Views
Is there a law? Nate - 28/12/2011 03:29:39 PM 970 Views
What I mean is that everybody considers it unsafe to eat raw eggs. Tim - 28/12/2011 06:37:17 PM 942 Views
I didn't know that. Nate - 28/12/2011 07:54:37 PM 1005 Views
It is suggested in the US that you cook the yolk to solid too. Avendesora - 30/12/2011 11:58:10 AM 867 Views
That sounds ridiculously over-cautious to me. Tim - 30/12/2011 05:48:56 PM 937 Views
I love a runny yolk myself. Vivien - 30/12/2011 06:28:49 PM 763 Views

Re: No but Vivien - 27/12/2011 07:19:51 PM 954 Views
Well that makes sense. Sareitha Sedai - 27/12/2011 07:51:41 PM 920 Views
What if it's a roomba? Vivien - 27/12/2011 09:19:54 PM 893 Views
Nope. Sareitha Sedai - 28/12/2011 02:13:55 PM 850 Views
You must share ways to make it more useful. Aeryn - 27/12/2011 07:09:18 PM 966 Views
Use Calibre (or other, similar, software) to convert PDF to MOBI. Nebhead - 27/12/2011 08:08:26 PM 938 Views

Hm. Avendesora - 27/12/2011 09:07:48 PM 1036 Views
Font size for PDFs? I don't think that option exists. Aeryn - 27/12/2011 10:29:08 PM 1065 Views
No... Just the kindle app with kindle Books so far. Sorry! Avendesora - 28/12/2011 01:14:37 AM 900 Views
