I never posted the latest podcast the husband and I did... mostly because I went into labor that night with baby number two, so here's our annual spooky #videogame podcast in mid-November! We played #DeadTake, which has a lot of big names in it!

One more skeet for Edmund Fitzgerald Day. Behind this historical marker is the famed Whitefish Bay. Today the Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum in Paradise, Mich., rang the recovered bell 31 times, 29 for the victims of the wreck, once for all Great Lakes shipwreck victims, and once for Gordon Lightfoot.

The horrors always persist, but the husband and I finally managed to sit down and talk about playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and all of its wonderful glory. It's seriously one of the best games we've played and our contender for GOTY.

Do I bust out a Faygo for the second period? Will that help anything in this game?

I feel like part of the problem is that in the modern era, especially in the United States, people think that in order to count, they have to post about their activism or what they're doing.

But here's the thing: you don't.

99% of what I do is stuff I never mention on social media.

The amount of tomatoes I’m getting from six romas and two cherry tomato plants is insane. I canned all this today. Not pictured: three additional bags of tomatoes I froze for making pasta sauce later.

The husband and I celebrated ten years married yesterday so of course we took a trip up to Frankenmuth to celebrate for the weekend while grandparents watched Toddler Hank. Obviously we had to play mini golf.

The husband and I have been playing Marvel Puzzle Quest for 11 years and they have broken this game so beyond repair and have not given two shits about fixing it. He’s giving up. I’m trying to keep going, but holy shit it is so bad.
