Thrive to spite them

I'm not sure what I'm doing on Thanksgiving. Hopefully working but food wise it may not be anything special.

Although I would like to try a Thanksgiving inspired pizza, but so far the recipes I've found feature cranberry sauce which I can't eat.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm supposed to be making spiced pecans, but I haven't gotten my ass to the store to buy pecans yet. I should get on that.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm not sure we're even going to "do" Thanksgiving this year. And I don't even care. I'm tired. I'll have five days off and I just want to sleep.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Cool. Monday Leif and I make a car out of life savers, twizzlers, and a fruit roll-up.

What kind of mileage does it get?

Mmmm, I do love homemade gravy at Thanksgiving. T-day is at EM's house this year, so she'll make a mushroom gravy with lots of sherry for JZ.

My favorite meatloaf is the meatloaf sandwich on ciabatta roll you can get at the meat market counter at the Ferry Building. It's served hot, with a molten core of cheese and smothered in delicious mushroom gravy.

In sum: mushroom gravy ftw.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm driving up to have Thanksgiving with my parents. Then I'll be driving to Indiana on Saturday to see Monica, who will be at her Godmother's. So, lotta' driving for me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Burgers are pretty much my favorite thing, but I DO NOT like meatloaf. Dunno why.

I hear you. The idea of meatloaf makes me shudder.

Although my stepdad did used to call me Queen Carbo because I love bread so much.

When I'd go to visit my grandmother in the country, she always made sure there was bread and butter ready for me. When I went back to visit my mother last month, from her post-op sick bed she was all "Did you get bread for ita !? She needs bread." And, true to form, for the first couple days, all I ate was hard dough bread and yam (not the sweet stuff y'all eat--starchier stuff more like cassava).

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I'll probably end up at my sister's boyfriend's parents' house. Wow, that's a lot of apostrophes.

I'd kind of rather skip it but that's not really good for me. And anyway, it seems like getting out of will take as much energy as going will, so.

And what are southern-style hashbrowns??

Bitty potato cubes as opposed to the shredded style. Maybe it's just a term used here. Though.

What kind of mileage does it get?

It's wind powered, the fruit roll-up is used as a sail.

Heh.

You need to add Gumi bears as passengers.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Heading down to Dad's for Thanksgiving, as usual.

I have less issues with bread than I did even two months ago, but I still can't eat a lot of it. I can finally eat a wrap, but a real sandwich with two pieces of bread is still too much for me. I do occasionally get a biscuit to eat for breakfast along with my two breakfast sausages, one hard-boiled egg, and small plate of fruit.
