My biggest tip for pumpkin pie is roasting your canned pumpkin in the oven at 425 for about 15 minutes to concentrate the flavor. It’ll cook off a lot of liquid and lose volume so make sure you roast more than you’ll need for the pie. #bakingsky #baking

Bc of everything going on I outsourced most of the Thanksgiving pies for the first time in over a decade (though I still am making the pumpkin). I guess it will be nice not to stay up until 3am tonight fussing over dough but I will miss the satisfaction of a really pretty final product.

Shout out to the UofM hospital cafeteria for crafting what may be the worst BEC ever offered for public consumption. Two bites and I threw it in the bin.

Chemo pushed to 12/1 because my mom qualifies for a clinical trial! It's a treatment already approved for lung cancer (and is the frontline treatment for that) and in a phase three trial for colon so we're hopeful she gets assigned the med (50/50 chance) and it's effective. Port procedure tomorrow.

I’m just a fucking disaster of a human now. A friend invited us to an academic panel and Doug had to leave early so I was solo at the reception after and I just…don’t know how to BE anymore. I was awkward in the best of times before but now…fucking yikes.

Back in 1793, a penny could get you a biscuit, a candle or a piece of candy. These days, many sit in drawers or glass jars and are basically cast aside or collected as lucky keepsakes.

Tuning into the Rock Hall induction since they’re using some of Doug’s photos in the White Stripes induction. So far this Sly Stone tribute is starting the night off strong.

Getting a bit of a break from our (shitty) new normal and heading to Evanston for the weekend for Doug’s niece’s wedding. It’ll be really nice to focus on something that’s not so heavy for a few days.

I don’t think I’ve ever dreaded anything as much as I do this appointment tomorrow. When you don’t know everything yet you can kind of live in denial. I’m fully terrified.

I’m so fucking fried. I went into Home Depot to copy some keys and while I was waiting, I saw out of the corner of my eye some guy grabbing a kid by the hair. I was about to react when I realized it was a Bride of Chuckie animatronic Halloween decoration.

Still waiting for some test results so we’re going through a lot of feel good/light hearted tv right now to keep ourselves distracted. Open to suggestions.

I’ve seen just one counter-protester at No Kings San Diego. He’s got a Trump 2024 flag and this guy has been following him around for probably an hour playing Benny Hill and circus music.

I went home for the day to hang out with Doug since it’s birthday. My mom just called me to inform me that a neighbor across the street from her stabbed his parents and a sibling. She stepped outside and found a kid bleeding on her grass. What the fuck is this week??
