I wonder if I'll ever be able to take over holiday meals? We host family Christmas Eve and my mother's in charge of dinner, for as long as she wants to be, I guess.

Maybe I could just invite people for Easter myself! Basically I want to eat ham, and my mother never does.

Just got a nice helping of stress that I can't talk about. Ugh. Not what I'm needing these days.

It's just me and the DH. He's eating keto on doctor's orders, so that made for a little figuring. We're having brined turkey breast and broccoli, for both of us, and stovetop stuffing and mashed potatoes for me. he is also making some riced cauliflower for gravy for himself. I'm buying one slice of pumpkin pie at our local gourmet market. The DH makes a mean turkey and gravy, so,I'm looking forward to it. It's our first thanksgiving with just us two, but I think it'll be lovely. We might consume a little weed beforehand to make the food even more scrumptious—we did that once with friends and it was a perfect for a holiday all about eating and enjoying the company!

OTOH, the Arcade machine is nearly done. Some touching up and minor details only. The marquee is just a placeholder.

Nice, Gud! (sorry about the stress)

Gud, that looks so great!

Timelies all!

Got LDB'ed this morning. Yes, someone in the lab was playing a Christmas playlist before Thanksgiving. The only tiny bit of mitigation is that it was Joan Jett's cover.

Does that count before Thanksgiving?

I'm going to imagine that as Joan Jett's LBD

Pretty sure the LDB game doesn't officially start until after Thanksgiving.
