Once again. I have neglected my blog for too long. Las Vegas was fabulous. And I skipped the stress of Christmas by not visiting my family.

Las Vegas! Las Vegas! I'm going to Vegas tomorrow. I can't wait. I'm staying at the Flamingo this time.

I realize that there is advertising EVERYWHERE now, but I am still surprised when I see it in unexpected locations. The latest was on the identification sticker that the airlines use to tag luggage. Did I really need to see an ad there telling me to go to some ski resort? It seems like such an odd place. But on the other hand, people have been conditioned to check the tag to make sure it is their luggage, so I guss it gets a lot of eyeballs.

I did watch the three shows mentioned in the previous post. As of now, Heroes, Studio 60 and Ugly Betty all made it to my season pass list. I am not sure if they will all stay there. Studio 60 seems like it might get a little to Sorkin-y preachy for my personal tastes.

Once upon a time, I used to be obsessed with the new fall television shows. Now, I barely notice that they are starting. I'd read everything I could about them in the newspaper and I used to BEG my parents to buy the TV Guide issue that summarized what was upcoming. I blame several reasons for the decline

• The Internet - too much other information
• Year round programming - Project Runway shown in the summer? No problem
• Getting older - yikes, I hate to admit this
• Cable channels - BBC America, FoodTV, Bravo, I blame you for diverting me
  
• Shittier stuff on network TV - I think this is partially due to the proliferation of cable channels
• TiVo - I always have something semi-decent to watch

There are only a handful of shows I am even going to try to catch.

• Ugly Betty
• Heroes
• Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip

I think this list got shorter on my way to writing it. Oh well, I sure some great new series will start on BBC America soon enough.

I made a peach pie for Super Tuesday last week and it was yummy. The lattice top was hard for me to do and if you look closely, it is a little uneven. I am not worried, it gives me something to aspire to, the perfect top. I am usually more of a one crust person with a crumb topping, but this was tasty, though a little crusty for me. My crusts still haven't quite hit the perfect balance between tender and flaky. But with my new food processor, they will.
