Happy Thanksgiving!

I got a DVD in the mail and was mildly excited to see a coupon on the back for $2 off another DVD. After closer inspection, however, it became clear that I was not going to use this coupon. Why, you ask? Well, it is a simple matter of the coupon expiring four years ago. Yes, the expiration date for this coupon inside the unwrapped DVD was December 31, 2006.

My Christmas season began in September. I started my list of things to get people and shortly thereafter began buying these things. It is now Thanksgiving and I am almost done Christmas shopping. I just need to get a couple more things for my parents and my work is finished. I even have a bunch of them wrapped already. Today, my Christmas tree went up. It's the same one that I bought in Germany, and I think it's the perfect size for our small apartment.

In other news, it was an exciting day because I got a coupon for 50% off one item at Borders. We were going into downtown Ann Arbor anyway, and so we stopped at Borders and I bought a cookbook. It's called Mediterranean Street Food and I'm really excited to try out some of the stuff in it. Mmm falafel and maqrud.

So have a happy Thanksgiving and good luck on black Friday.
