Spend a few hours tonight at a positively cutthroat game of holiday bingo organized by my friend Elisa. The drill was straight-up bingo, where every time you won you got to choose from a pile of presents brought by participants or, if you weren’t really feeling the whole 10th commandment thing, steal a gift that someone else has already opened.

Jenny and I walked away with a bunch of great items, several of which are handmade and quite cool, but the one that I couldn’t believe that nobody store from me was a snowball-maker from Restoration Hardware. As the product description says, “Never again experience the frustration of lumpy, icy snowballs and soggy mittens. This wonder tool lightly packs the snow into perfect orbs that fly far and explode spectacularly (and safely) on contact.”

Such a pity I’m going to Florida for a few weeks. Luckily, I’ll be spending tons of time in Ithaca next semester, so I’ll have ample snowball-making opportunities…
