Ok, all that's left to do is stop at the 7-11 for plane snacks. And slip the mini into my bag. 3 hrs to my flight and OF COURSE I'm overthinking when I need to leave the house. Need to wait on traffic.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Safe travels, Sara!

Woo hoo! The meeting was not looking forward to this morning just got cancelled! My big boss apologized for not telling me yesterday, but I'm just as happy to get the gift of the hour on a Friday morning. (Luckily, I didn't really have to prepare and get here well before 9 anyway.)

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Dunkens spinach and artichoke bagel supreme is supremely bland.

ION, I am registered! Tried doing it online, got all the way to the final step, and their server errored on me. Was in a panic that this was proof that my registration was being denied. Sweated all through my wait at the MVC. Her computer had her frowning, panicked some more.

Hopefully this is the last of this business

Glad to hear it, Juliebird

Just ordered a heritage turkey on my phone to be delivered before Thanksgiving. Pending confirmation, of course. What an age we live in.

Oh yeah, I should think about that.

For people with tiny groups, last year I did turkey legs braised in red wine and it was incredibly delicious and so much less work than doing a whole turkey for three or four people.

I made reservations for Thanksgiving. It is just going to be K-Bug and me, and neither of us want to cook - so we are going out for dinner. Found a restaurant we like that is doing a T-Day buffet.

That sounds so good, and was something I was thinking about doing, but I haven't made it to a store to look for turkey legs. ISTR not being able to find them last year.

What I really want is the stuffing, though, so I am also thinking about doing a roll of butterflied turkey breast and stuffing, which apparently cooks up pretty fast in the pressure cooker.

But "order turkey" came up on my to do list today, so I went ahead with that. If I don't roast if for Thanksgiving I'll be happy to have it some other time.

There's a rottie at my gate! Military service dog in training. 6 months old.

I felt guilty eating a beef sandwich, his eyes got soooo big.
