Last day to join the MoFo Gift Exchange. Now is also the time to share with me any match restrictions participants may want (no one will get matched with who they had last year, but other than that I have made no limits), also the time to ask any pressing questions and the time to let me know if you are interested in being part of the MoFo Mayhem Elves.

Next time I post a TO DO list like:

TO DO LIST

- schedule oil change
- shower
- laundry - two loads
- pay bills
- clean bathroom - finished
- lunch

Remind me that I REALLY need to pay the bills. I was scared I was late on a few things so of course I put it off more. Well, I WAS late and putting it off made me late on 2 more! GD self.

oh well, paying directly now and we will see what the checking balance is when done and if I can set up the next round of things due.

Anyone want to help me figure out what dessert to bring for Thanksgiving? It needs to complement standard Tgiving pies, so maybe something lighter? Preferably no nuts.

Ooh, I was just looking at thanksgiving desserts on Serious Ests earlier today, lemme see if I can find that again. I think there was a cranberry trifle I was into.

oh oh oh I wanna help.

I need to plan a menu also. No one but me really cares about making all the traditional stuff so I thought I might just cook all that stuff for me for the whole damn month and do something else that day. Starting next year I may on my own for the holidays and be able to have it however I want without feeling like I am imposing my will on others.

Ooh, I haven't gotten to Serious Eats yet. So far, contenders include [link] and [link]

I've done that before, msbelle, it works great. And you don't have to have it all ready at once, so much easier to manage.

Oh, I like the look of those tarts.
