Christmas presents for others. i've been buying presents as far back as October. The last one was at least a month ago. I hate the crowds in the stores , last night my son and I went grocery shopping because the stores were not so crowded.

Movies. I splurged hard. Replete with splurge.
I bought Easy Rider, The Seventh Seal, Vertigo and Solo. Throne of Blood too, but that was a gift for somebody else.

I bought an air fryer. Which I still haven't used (except for a test drive with some crispy crowns), but I do have some glop made out of leftovers plus this-and-that prepped for making "southwestern" egg rolls. {a can of Nalley's chili, frozen corn, some wild rice pilaf, 10 oz. pepper jack cheese, 3 jalapenos, a tomato, sauteed spinach, matchstick carrots, dried refried beans to thicken, 1/3 of an onion, love, spices, a few other thingies.} TBH, I'm not very optimistic since egg rolls didn't come out too great in my convection oven, but I'll deep fry 'em if they're too cracker-like. {A lot of my food might be too Cracker-like for you Chinaman.} haha
egg rolls HAVE to be fried. trying to bake them just doesn't give that true crispy bad for you taste. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
My optimism is limited. But if I can get "decent" results, it changes the math. Done properly to my exacting specifications, deep frying egg rolls (according to my calculations) only adds about 30 calories (air frying with oil spray would probably add about 10). Deep frying is a PITA though, especially since I fry in small batches and then clean/filter the oil in-between.

I've been around dogs almost everyday of my live, starting about two days after I was born. they mature quickly and they adapt to the situations in the home.
