I have a food processor, but I don't use it very often. I have a couple little ones that I use far more often.
She just... she just did the math.

Jesse, I made a Bakewell tart a few months ago, and it wasn't too difficult, and it was a hit. I didn't do any icing, though, just sprinkled powdered sugar over a stencil. Turned out quite tasty.
I got my massage appointment, so I'm drinking a half pint of IPA on the sunny porch of a brewpub down the block. It's crazy warm and sunny here....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I would totally do that! But my aunt is allergic to nuts. Every time I come up with something, it's full of nuts.

That is definitely a problem. I'm afk, but I do have a recipe for a nice chai butter cake if you want it...

Maybe I'll do Chelsea buns! Or that tennis cake.

Strix, just to echo what everyone else has said, this 'friend' clearly is taking her own baggage out on you. Especially since it sounds like the plans you cancelled would have meant spending money when that's fraught for you right now.
My Thanksgiving was fine. If people were being pleasant, I was pleasant. I was taking no shit from my dad and my uncle, though. If they said something horrible while I was in the room, I immediately challenged it. Neither of them kept going with justifications, at least?

Y'all are hella nice and my headspace is 100% better today!! Mille grazie!
My immediate fam has decided that we are drawing a name and setting a $40 limit from now on. M is 15 and required to participate. (We drew names in August so he had plenty of time to save it.)
And we have nixed stockings too.
Not gonna lie, I'm a little sad about this, because nostalgia, but it's diminished money and shopping stress considerably.
I'm partioning my hair with teeny rubber bands to dye it red, pink and purple. (I had leftover pink and purple from months ago. And my roots are seriously 5".)
I look demented.
