I did a cranberry coffee cake out of a GF mix that had to go and leftover sauce. I would swirl waaaaay more sauce btwn the layers next time! The tartness was a nice counterpoint to the sweetness of the crumb topping.

We lost a baddie. A Board Game Baddie.

After looking at reviews, I left these for someone else.

I also save all my wrappers from butter or shortening in the fridge. The bit that stays on 1-2 wrappers is enough to butter a pan.

I didn't learn that from Depression Era Grandma. My 2nd Gen, Child of an Immigrant self figured this out.

In case you didn't know. This is how my Gma In-Law taught me to line round pans.

Idk how others do it.

Someone on the hospital sign team has a sense of humor!

You just died, the sixth picture in your camera roll is what killed you.

Yikes. 😳 Too real.

Happy Problematic American Holiday!

Here's a Turkey my dad saw down the street. They are out here claiming their space.

In the SF Bay Area, my little family of three is solidly middle class. But my library hold have been rolling in, and I'm hella rich!!!

The same lady gave me another bag of clothes! But I have to go eat Puerto Rican food with family tonight.

Look at my cute mom using the gym at her Senior Center.

She wants us to know she worked out for 1hr and they provide towels for the shower. 😆

Learning Yokai Septet. Scored it for $10 off of a local Discord.

Capturing Boss Yokai?
Is this Pokemon?!?! I think I hear that Pokemon was based on Yokai.

Someone direct me to the essay on this!

I'm digging this dress.

Ok. Thanks for peeping the thread.

Going to pack up the rest that didn't fit and reoffer on my local free list.

This jacket is too big and giving me Macklemore vibes, but ...
November 16, 2025 at 3:30 AM
This actually fits very poorly on me. From the side I look pregnant. Some very thin tall girl will like it though!

Fancy Catering Staff? Or We All Have To Wear Black for the Choir Recital?

This fits. I didn't have Navy fam though. Just Army and Marines. Am I poser, if I wear this?!?!

There is an old Navy Base in my town tho. 😆

Welp, almost everything is a little too big. But this sweater is cozy. I think maybe 2 other things fit.

This time of year I would do Family Game Programs for Int'l Games Month. Not yet there in my new role.

So solo lunch gaming with Silver and Gold it is. I posted on Teams, but no one came. 😞. I will keep trying. 🙂

Whatever it takes to keep playing games with my teen ... even if that means waiting quietly while she takes several min. to worship at the altar of 6-7. 😑

If you like learning about symbiotic relationships in the animal kingdom, this is a great book by one of my favorite children's book illustrators.

My favorite factoid used to be the sunfish and seagulls, but now I just learned about this anemone & hermit crabs!

"You didn't learn it beforehand?!?" 😖

Not an issue with Jungo! We played two rounds and she won.

Scout, but even easier is an apt description.

Thought I'd do chores on the first day of my 3 day weekend, but it may be one of the last of the nap in a hammock sunny days!

My Jackalope won 3rd place for Spooky Individual and our branch won 2nd place for Large Group submission.

This is what happens when your group goes so hard, the workplace had to rewrite the contest rules to allow others to win.
