If you start making historical accuracy a goal, where do you stop?
For me the answer is: with the invention of the flush toilet.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

hip deep in pie
I don't know if there will be pie at my Thanksgiving tomorrow.
This somehow seems Unamerican, said the person who celebrated Thanksgiving six weeks ago.
Apparently she was planning to serve fish until the other aunt rebelled.
Aggghhh! She must be stopped!
We are having a big rain/windstorm. I expect to lose power sometime tonight.

Brave Hubby went searching for a copy of the Hobbit so we can watch it before we see Pt. 2, so he braved the crowds. He found a sale wherein he got Hobbit, Great and Powerful Oz, and a used copy of Avengers for the price he was willing to pay for Hobbit. Yay, provider Hubby!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Mmmm. We're all munching on leftover spanakopita from the pan of it that I made for the potluck at work yesterday, and it's so much better than Trader Joe's it makes me want to cry when I think that this is the last of it.
We still have a crapton of other potluck leftovers, though, and tomorrow there will be yet more leftovers, but I think after they've all been plowed through I need to make another pan.
(Is it okay to swoon over my own cooking? It's the recipe (Moosewood) that makes it great.)
Happy incipient food coma to one and all (USians)! (Happy incipient Thursday and regular good food to one and all others!) (And Hanukkah!)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
This is why some people prefer sweet potato rolls.
Especially if they're still frozen.

My Mom just told me I'm not supposed to talk tomorrow about my nephew’s visit to the psychiatric ward, which I didn’t know about, because nobody has talked to me about it.
...Dude. This is why Friendsgivings exist. IJS.
Also, I don't care how health conscious you are, it is an abomination to force other people to have a pie-less thanksgiving! SO WRONG.

It is unhealthy to not serve pie.

We might not be having pie. We'll have some kind of apple dessert but it may not be pie. I will report when I have definitive information.
