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 didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

It is unhealthy to not serve pie.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

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.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I have never made a Pecan Pie, I decide to try one, but I made a Bourbon Pecan Pie. and since the parents don't drink, and mac hates nuts it will be mine all mine, for better or worse.

Green bean casserole got done, but the butternut squash one has to wait for tomorrow. as does the whipped cream for the cranberry salad and the honey whipped cream for the pumpkin pie topping. Oh and the potatoes, forgot to cook the potatoes.

I'm gonna fish this wine and then to bed.

Both batches of stuffing made. Now to drink rose lemonade with added St. Germaine.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I feel if I buy another one, it's too much. If I take any of my six home cables anywhere, I'll have too few here.
But clearly I'm not coping, so shopping it is.

This is where I ended up. Yes, it's overkill. But I am way less stressed and frustrated. So, really, it was just enough kill.

If you start making historical accuracy a goal, where do you stop?

Somewhere before starvation and rampant disease, I hope.

I'm gonna fish this wine

I like some oak in my Chardonnay sometimes but I am iffy about fished wine.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

This is why Friendsgivings exist. IJS.

Seriously. If you want to jump ship at the last minute and fly down here, I would totally drop everything to come to the airport and get you. Or maybe send S to the airport. Either way, we've got you covered if you suddenly find a need to be 4 or 5 decent-sized states away.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Happy Hannukah peoples!

I made pumpkin pie today, so there will pie tomorrow for sure. Not making anything else until tomorrow since we are eating late anyway.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I'm having a friend over for Friendsgiving. We're practising the custom of our people and getting takeout from Boston Market. Then she's going to watch the Dog Show on my TV and I will play with her dogs.
