Another day bouncing manically between “what fresh hell is this?” and “ooooooh, puppies!”.
I must say, you meet the nicest people in the flu/COVID vaccination lineup. Had great chats about weather, agriculture and real estate, and got a line on a great little vintage/consignment shop.

My original list of things to do this month:
- decluttering closets
-Christmas baking
-Routine mammogram
My new list:
-Biopsy
-Getting results I was dreading (thanks, AHS health records app)
-Figuring how/when to tell my boss, who is facing her own biopsy for the same reason.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

After a challenging couple of days, tonight's display was a colourful reminder that it pays to keep looking up.
(Plus, what 80s girl doesn’t love pink and green?)

I do love a gloomy November day, especially if I can have stroopwafels with my morning coffee and homemade soup for supper.

The Ballad of Danielle (first draft)
When opposition reared its head,
She bravely packed her bags and fled
Powdered up her mucky snout
Took a first-class ticket out,
Saved her ass, craven Marlaina!

Today’s #worldseries anxiety baking: made a big batch of dough to use up leftover mashed potatoes. My husband couldn’t choose between cheese buns and cinnamon rolls, so I figured, why not both? They should cool in time for us to munch our way through the 7th inning.

Victory Apple Crisp, topped with Greek yogurt and maple syrup (if the Jays had lost last night, we’d be eating it with Consolation Ice Cream).

I’m too nervous to sit down and watch the #worldseries, so am trying to keep gainfully occupied while staying in earshot of the tv. So far I’ve organized my baking cupboard and put together an apple crisp for breakfast. If it goes to 7 games, I may need to take up tatting.
