I’ve told Solo that it’s time to get a job. He’s not happy about it, but we have a lot of mouths to feed.
The kittens surround Solo, my orange tabby, in his security guard uniform. Solo, looking a bit nervous. He has zero experience and made up everything on his resume.

I wish I had the stir fried green beans technique mastered so I could do it for Thanksgiving, that would slap as a side. Alas, I have only done it once before & have some work to do before I can premiere it to the fam

In light of the fact that our health workers and care infrastructure need a break this holiday season, too, here's a guide from @cspinet.org on common cooking bloopers to avoid during the holidays.

Thanksgiving '25 goals: Regain the mandate of heaven on pumpkin pie. I used to think I was over-steaming the calabaza but it always turned out delicious. I tried other techniques/times & none of those was anything like the original. Time to bring back the "oversteam" method or perish trying

Told my massage therapist "I'll hit you with the tip when I get over there" then had to pause for us to think about that phrase & crack up 😆

tfw you’re fucking the lasagna man for lasagna
•*• Funny-Presence4228 LPT: How to win as a guest and make new friends at a raging, alcohol fuelled party Food & Drink I'm getting older now, and some of my friends' kids have recently started college. I've been reliably told that alcohol-fuelled parties are still happening, and I shared this advice about how to make new friends and be a hero. One of them took my advice, and now has a new girlfriend because of this. The key to the following advice is an element of secrecy because the surprise makes it even better. Arrive late and sneak Lasagna into the party. I mean, taking a large, catering-sized tray of lasagna, along with a stack of paper plates and forks, to a raging house party. I used to do this back in college. I'd make one, sometimes two, in the afternoon in big foil trays before goin to a party. Show up around 10.30pm, and slip them into the oven without asking permission telling anyone. Medium heat for 30 minutes to warm it up. Get my paper plates out, and shout: "Lasagna is ready" to a packed house of drunk people, and hand them all a fork. It's cheaper than bringing beer, no clean-up, and I got laid pretty often. Important note: Make sure the person who owns the oven is the first in the line, and don't make a mess. Maybe make one meat and one vegan or something... This last point was less of a concern back in my day, but we must move with the times.

I need to make a bedtime chart equivalent to this

Fool's bedtime-6pm couch nap
Second bedtime-getting in the bed
Bedtime of deception-Cinnamon gets in bed but soon leaves <-We are here
Third bedtime-Cinnamon returns
The Hollaring-Cinnamon yells for 5 min before actually laying down
Actual bedtime

Forgot to eat lunch so I made a freezer meal right after work. Homemade ox bone broth, miso, noodles, corn, peas, ginger, scallions, & thinly sliced lamb all from the freezer. Added chili oil, dried shallot, dried fried garlic, coriander seed, & white pepper. Delicious 👩🏽‍🍳 🍜🍽️

Thankfully I hadn't quite made it to the highway on-ramp yet & was only 3 blocks from home when my back passenger tire... seized up? She did a big SKRRT & left this streak on the road. What do we think folks, some kind of breaks failure? 🤔

with charity and goodwill, i must here part ways with rolls.
a grid of thanksgiving dishes and a command to pick one to eliminate: turkey, rolls, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, stuffing, pies, green bean casserole, ham and gravy.

I made a li'l cookbook! *After the Feast* suggests ways to use up leftovers from your big turkey dinners.

The PDF is FREE. If you buy a print copy, $2 will support food security initiatives through the Qajuqturvik Community Food Centre.
