Be at peace, Mr. Morita

He was so much more than just Mr. Miyagi

For some reason it makes me really sad to know he's gone. I understand society's tendency to glamorize celebrities and kowtow to their comings and goings, but damn. I really liked his work and he seemed like such a decent person.

Today was a day off for the kids, all the Catholic schools were shut down (but the public ones still open? I think the board made an oopsie) so we rented some movies and watched them and the kids played outside a while and it was a good day. We watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and the Polar Express. Perfect timing on the second one what with Christmas looming over our heads and all.

I also made mudpies, the easiest cookies to make on earth.

And then the family ate like, half of them.

Ok time to go start knitting something for the brother-in-law's Christmas present.
