My condolences, ND.

Last night I baked an apple pie for my family's Thanksgiving gathering today, and by looks and scent it seems to be a success. Big improvement over last year when the pie slid off the pizza stone and splattered across my kitchen floor. (Though the kitchen did smell wonderful for a week afterwards.)

Enjoy Family Thanksgiving Day, Matt!

I'm spending today getting ready to spend the week up at my sister's in Yardley, PA. DH suggested a long visit this year -- we are very self-sufficient and self-entertaining guests, so it's not as, "Damn, that's a long visit!" as it sounds. Plus, his family is up there, too, so there will be time with them. And my bestie is about 20 mins. away in NJ, so much visiting to be done!

I realized that my heated blanket is portable, so I'm taking it with me! Why haven't I done this before? No idea -- but pretty sure it will be traveling with me more often now. (The bedrooms in their house are freezing. It's a known thing.)

What are peeps doing for Thanksgiving this week?

I'm sorry ND.

I maybe without confusing Ops manager for a little longer . Yesterday he was limping and I went in the back and a coworker was reading from her phone and saying "it says Seek IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION you need to go to the ER now". His lower leg was swollen and purple (I didn't see it) and he had a blood clot condition so she was concerned it was a blood clot. Ops manager finally went and I saw him later he said "it's only cellulitis and I have an antibiotic and I'm supposed to stay off my feet". And yet he was in here this morning. But everyone was telling him to go home.
