Wow, I just got sucked down the Etsy hole. Favourited a lot of stuff. I think I want to get my sister and I matching jewelry. If it's made in Cali, all the better. But we have to match.

This is a much better idea than the McNulty/Stringer porn she asked for. Or the computer.

I probably should have bought the pies today. Ah, well.

Right, sleep.

My pie is out and smells great. I think I need to sample it before t-day.

Now I'm feeling all ambitious and want to get on the turkey stock.

Where (if anywhere) do we discuss the Good Wife?

Right here in whitefont

Just like Grey's? OK, can do. (Er, when I finish watching the current ep). Though I must say, the guy who plays Lemond Bishop is a FINE, FINE looking man.

Ooh, and according to his IMDB bio his brother is a Secret Service agent. hot.

Yesterday a friend of mine invited me to Thanksgiving dinner. She claims to not need anything, so I'll be bringing flowers. It's a noon-ish dinner, so would wine be out of place? I was raised by a teatotaller, so I have to learn about my liquor etiquette in the street, from strangers online, from buffistas.

Bringing a bottle of wine to the home of a wine-drinker is never a bad plan -- they can save it for later if they don't want to serve it immediately, for whatever reason.

In other news, I woke up an hour+ early, stayed in bed reading, and now remember that none of my friends will be at work, which will make for a sloooow day, if a short one. Meh!

Most of the time when people have set their yards on fire trying to deep-fry turkeys, it's because they were (a) drunk or (b) trying to fry a turkey too big for their fryer, or (c) forgot to defrost. Or (d) using some kind of home-made rig with no safety features. Or a combination of the four. The new electric fryers are much safer.

Or doing it in the garage or under an overhang.
