One more gadget for Russell to put under the tree. :) Make sure you get the most expensive one of the 3 flashes. That one has a special feature that reads what the lens is focused on and adjusts the flash power for the distance from the object to be photographed. Oh, the girl geekness of feeling your whole camera throb and adjust itself as you focus.

And I feel terrible that I've missed a dish. The Mushroom Bean Cassolet.
