Ho Ho Holy crap this thread is empty. I better get on with the gift giving. I can't help you with the kitchen/bath remodel but how about a low carb Cheesecake recipie?

Crust:

* New York Style Cheesecake 1 1/2 cups almond flour
* 6 Tbsp Splenda
* 5 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted

Filling:

* 24 ounces cream cheese, softened
* 1 1/2 cups Splenda
* 3 eggs, room temperature
* 2 tsp vanilla extract
* 1 tsp lemon extract
* 16 ounces sour cream

Make Crust: Mix Splenda and almond flour with melted butter; press onto bottom and 1 1/2 inches up sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Set aside while mixing filling.

Beat the cream cheese until light and fluffy, keeping the mixer on a low setting throughout the beating and mixing process. Add Splenda a little at a time and continue beating until creamy. Add one egg at a time and beat very briefly after each egg. When eggs have been mixed into the cream cheese add vanilla and mix briefly, just until combined. Add the sour cream last and beat briefly.

Pour cream cheese mixture into the springform pan. Bake at 325° (300° for dark, nonstick pan) for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Check before an hour is up and if it's getting brown, turn oven off and begin the next step. When time is up, prop open oven door, turn off the heat and leave in oven for 1 hour. After 1 hour, remove from oven. Cool to room temperature then chill 24 hours before serving.

Maybe you can share it with this man:

Santa knows you've been good this year, and has no interest in denying you warm feet and funkiness for Christmas (of course I mean funky in the good sense, not in the unwashed socks sense...)

So, I'm here to present you with some socks for your perusal. Hope these are what you were looking for...

There's fuzzy and tie-dyed...

[Erins Secret Santa]

Hello there Erin,

As I read over my list, I see you've been very naughty this year. No, no, don't try and deny it; Santa's list is never wrong.

However, it's a little-known fact that not only does Santa not mind a certain amount of naughtiness, but he even enjoys it now and then. [/b]

_{No dear, I wasn't talking to you. Yes, you need to put the red leather and bowlful of jelly back in the special room. Yes, we can play Comet and Vixen's Special Reindeer Games later. I promise.}

Ahem. Where was I? Oh yes: naughtiness.

As I said, a bit of naughtiness once in a while is perfectly acceptable. Therefore, in order to start the festivities on the right note, I've decided to reward your year of naughtiness by bringing you some new friends to be naughty with.

Try not to wear all of them out on the first night, okay?

Yours in naughtiness,

Santa[/b]

[Queen E]

Oh Santa! #thud# Doctors and Lawyers in leather! The Bettany all...you know!

If this is the reward for being naughty, I'll never be nice again! Thank you thank you thank you, Santa! I'm going to have to find something better than cookies to leave you this year! You know, just as soon as I can leave my bunk...

[Springs Santa]

Dear Spring,

So…a job, you say? Those don’t usually fit in my sack, so I don’t have much experience in just handing them out.

In lieu of an actual job, I can offer you this suggestion on what to do in the unlikely event you should ever get turned down for one.

Send the following letter off and stare at THIS until you receive your first paycheck.



”Dear …,

Thank you for your letter rejecting my application for employment with your firm.

I have received rejections from an unusually large number of well qualified organizations. With such a varied and promising spectrum of rejections from which to select, it is impossible for me to consider them all. After careful deliberation, then, and because a number of firms have found me more unsuitable, I regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your rejection.

Despite your company’s outstanding qualifications and previous experience in rejecting applicants, I find that your rejection does not meet with my requirements at this time. As a result, I will be starting employment with your firm on the first of the month.

Circumstances change and one can never know when new demands for rejection arise. Accordingly, I will keep your letter on file in case my requirements for rejection change.

Please do not regard this letter as a criticism of your qualifications in attempting to refuse me employment. I wish you the best of luck in rejecting future candidates.

Sincerely,

Spring"

You asked for some music—I think that can be arranged!! Point your browser to:

Put in some of your favorite songs or artists, and this site will create a custom playlist—just for you! Don’t like what their playing? Tell them so, and it will never play again! Like a musical version of Roger Ebert, you can give a “thumbs up” or “thumbs down” to each song. How cool is that?

You also asked for some quick and easy recipes so you can fix dinner in a flash for your hungry sprouts. Santa can commiserate--he has to do all the meal-planning for the elves. What a pain! Here’s one suggestion for you—it can be whipped up in no time:

Enjoy!
