Honest question: If everyone got Universal Basic Income, no strings attached, what would YOU do with it?

Coming from a marching band/RATM family, this is amazing, and red shirt girly has it correct. 🤣

I love candy corn, have never actually tried circus peanuts. 🤔

It's definitely a product of my upbringing, but I never knew "ham stew" was a thing, until I have seen multiple people post about it here in the last 48 hours.

Possible context: Texas girl, raised a NorCal mom? 🤷‍♀️

Come on, Blue Sky, I need moral support to get me through making these pies!

So sorry, I panic-bought all the heavy whipping cream because I forgot, repeatedly, how much was already in my fridge. 🤦‍♀️

Turkeys are done! Left is Cajun seasoned and oven roasted, right is smoked (and not burned; the picture is misleading!)
Golden brown turkey from the oven Very dark turkey right off the smoker. It's not burned! It was my first attempt at spatchcocking.

Pies still aren't done. Am I self-sabotaging? Maybe. 🤣 Turkeys are almost done, gumbo made and eaten for dinner.

2 out of 3 is fine, right? House is clean, turkeys are sitting in their brine bath. I don't know if I have it in me to make pie crusts tonight, so I think I'll just punt that to tomorrow and be mad at myself then. After all, why do today what you can put off until tomorrow, amirite?

The countdown to Turkey Day begins! I'm trying to spread everything out as much as I can, so today: clean house, make pie crusts (4, I think), brine the turkeys tonight.

2: one in the oven, one on the smoker.

The dogs are on alert. For what, they aren't quite sure.
3 black dogs and 1 brown and white dog are alertly staring out open windows.

I definitely enjoyed my okra while I had it. 🥰

I listen to my 13 yo talk so much that current slang is apparently creeping into my speech when I'm teaching, without being aware of it. New level unlocked, or did they just bring old slang back to life again? 🤔

I chopped back my okra as far as I could when the temps were reliably dipping below 50*. Those dang okra kept growing leaves and flowering! I think the first freeze we had may have killed them... Or I'll have okra growing all winter. 🤦‍♀️

Do we need one? Absolutely. Is the white electorate willing to vote for and accept one? Apparently fucking not. 😭🤬

With the amount of bruises and scrapes I got just from trying to change out the front brakes, that doesn't bode well for me. 🤣

That's awesome, I'm jealous! 😁 (I hope that others read my repost, since she needed absolutely no help with this project.)
