I usually bring a non-pie dessert to Thanksgiving, but didn't this year. I regret it! So I'm going to make a half-size of this tomorrow: [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I would say the food at my gathering was just OK but the company was excellent, so worth it. Think next year I’ll go back to my usual pumpkin pie recipe. The filling this year I used was Claire Saffitz’s caramelized honey pumpkin pie. It was tasty but very spice forward and I like a ginger snap pecan crust, so it fought with that a bit. And it didn’t bake quite right.
Today I have to clean and pack, tomorrow I head out on a long road trip. But first, watching some World Cup

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Mushroom Stew in Pastry Cups: A+. One of my best stews. We know this recipe now and it's locked in.
I think I need this recipe.
I kinda wish I'd had a dessert but planning that for 1 person while in tech is challenging. I did have some fancy tea, which was nice. The curry (slow-cook chickpea, red lentil, and pumpkin) turned out okay, if a bit mild. If I make it again I'll give it a bit more kick.

Timelies all!
Went to work today. Not much else going on.

Our wings are not tired.
I am closing out my lazy day watching Princess Bride. I can’t remember taking a day off. It’s quite pleasant.

Timelies, all. I’m glad people had largely good Thanksgiving gatherings and food.
Today I put up my Christmas tree and ate leftovers. Apricot-ginger sweet potatoes mix very nicely with a tart cranberry sauce. I’ve also been doing my annual LotR rewatch. I’m watching Denethor win father of the year right now.

Argh. I was wanting to stay home cozy and try to pack and clean, but just got informed that starting next week (I’ll be gone but still) our dancing hours have been cut in half. We usually have an hour of lessons and two hours dancing and now we’ll have about and hour and 45 minutes TOTAL. WTF. I don’t know what the story is but like, it’s not that there’s a ton of people waiting to enjoy the dance floor with a house DJ at 845pm on a Friday. Grrr.

The game in the brewpub was okay, only a few people there, all of whom seemed to know each other. I should go there more often, build some neighborhood connections.
