Mulching the fall leaves. No raking, no bags, just run the mower over them, set in "mulch" mode. One of jobs at Purdue was to mow a test patch of grass in a dozen locations. Mulching was one of the things they tested for. Nutrient return was very good.

Got the gift cards and Christmas cards at Target tonight. It came to about $300 or $100 each. Now I just need to buy individual boxes and bags for each and a candy or something for each.
Yay for 3-packs of cards. Because I used my Target credit card, I got 5% off the bulk of them.

Yesterday the wife said 'let's make our own christmas cookies this year'. I've been making cookies for the last 6 hours, she has been supervising.
