Tara ,'Get It Done'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I do not know what creamed onions are, and I don’t think I want to know.
After Mom married Stepdad we started having Thanksgiving with Stepdad’s family, and one year we ended up eating it at a rest buffet. I threw such a fit that mom ended up making a small Thanksgiving dinner the next week, and I don’t think we ever did the restaurant Thanksgiving again. I was a teenager at the time.
ltc did not like the pumpkin pie, but she loved the apple pie.
Oh yes, I should mention that my "replace the heavy white starches with roast veggies" strategy has as its ultimate goal More Room For Pie.
Y’all it’s a Christmas miracle. I’m in a training that is actually well planned and helpful. Where am I?!
We did the buffet thing for Thanksgiving the last several years of my parents’ lives. Mom was an excellent cook, but after 30+ years, she was entirely over it. She didn’t even want the fuss and bother of me cooking for the family where she’d feel the need to supervise. I was still in the “free food is good food” phase of early adulthood, so it worked out. Now I like cooking for others, but in non-COVID times that’s just 4-5 meals a year that have to meet other people’s standards. Not a daily grind.
I have had multiple people tell me that if something is properly developed under agile you won't need technical writing because you won't need a manual.
This is one of the reasons I started a whole bootcamp on "how to actually deliver useful stuff."
My son and I bought a duck for Thanksgiving but the DH said NO and bought a turkey and a ham. Turns out turkey and ham and duck is almost enough protein for a 15yo who's weightlifting.
Maybe 4 years ago we went to Medieval Times for Thanksgiving because we thought it was funny.

Not a manual, but a Help system as you can't put everything in the product UI (for example a list of commands and descriptions). There'll always be a need for tech documentation.

That is hilarious
The first year I was in NO, then future DH's family did their usual go out to a restaurant for Thanksgiving thing and did not invite me, and our roommate went to his family, so I spent the day alone and cooked the full meal with all the sides by myself because I wanted everything, dammit. DH came home and ate with me at 10pm or something and we had leftovers for days.
Oh, hey, I haven't had coffee yet. That would probably improve my mood.

Lol! I mean, hopefully you won't need an end user manual, but end user doc is not the only kind of technical writing.
I tried to get away from starchy white side dishes and accidentally wound up with a super rich beer mac and cheese that everybody loves and now I'm obliged to make it. It's obviously way heavier, which was not the direction I was aiming for.
I ruint the roasted Brussels sprouts at Thanksgiving, and they haven't been popular so I need another green dish. JZ doesn't like green beans though. Ponder...
