Officially asking now for author folks (and reader folks) to tell me about the new queer holiday romances coming out this year—I don’t know why I’m having trouble finding them this year, but I am.

Drop 'em here, please.

(Bonus if low-angst; also happy for sapphic—this is not just a dude zone).

There is a post circulating on Bluesky encouraging the moving of a frozen turkey straight into a pot of hot oil. We are combating this misinformation the best way we know how - through the power of dance music.

home from work and WHEW what a day. Not because we were busy, but because a shoplifter was.

This woman was in the store FOUR HOURS and we were just all watching her stuff things in backpacks, put on layers and layers of clothing, try to duck us at every turn.

Baubles on the tree, lights on the window, and festive pillows in chairs.

Merry fucking holidays, my good bitches.

Got a great night's sleep last night and did all the things today--shopping, cleaning, laundry (washed, dried, folded AND put away), holiday decorating.

It's almost like if you get enough rest you have energy or something.

Weird.

Just tried the Canada Dry blackberry ginger ale and I'm having flashbacks to college parties, hanging out with a Bartles and Jaymes cooler in-hand.

I could chill with this.

So I have my low-spoons, low-budget meal planned for Thanksgiving, and since I like sharing my cheap-food ways, sit back and enjoy my Thanksgiving meal plans.

Note, I'll be feeding three adults and two of those are picky eaters. YMMV

My mother just called to revise tomorrow's birthday lunch plans. Because she fell and broker her foot. She thinks she's going to cook instead of driving to Little Rock.

This woman, y'all.

Today's feed-yourself thread:

Keeping it simple! If you have 1 egg and 2 pieces of bread, here are all my ideas of what to do with those. (More than you might imagine!)

Option 1: French Toast

If you have milk, add a dash and whip the egg. Otherwise, water works. Likewise, cinnamon / sugar.

Eight o'clock. Time for the upstairs child to start throwing herself onto the floor while screaming bloody murder.

Upstairs mother has retired to her room for video games so she doesn't need to listen to child.

Sable Mae wants in my lap because upstairs is scary.

Just returned an AI book. It looked interesting so I just hit buy. Nope.

That'll learn me to not read the sample.

All-store training meeting tonight and we were told a meal would be provided, so I didn't eat before I went.

The meal: 6 chicken nuggets and a can of coke.

Time to offer my annual reminder that if you're looking for affordable entertainment over the holiday season and you live anywhere near a university campus, check their performance hall schedule. They typically have interesting items year round along with holiday shows.

In the wake of the Pippen thing, I almost forgot to tell y'all a man came through today who was basically the embodiment of younger Denzel Washington. Looks. Voice. The way he moved. And then he showed me proud daddy pictured of his babies and I'm pretty sure my last ovary exploded a little.

Scotty Pippen came through my line at the store today. So that was a thing that happened.

At the market today, i had a booth next to a 73 yo woman who was mad at her husband because he wouldn't let her go up on the roof to clean the gutters anymore. Because she fell off the roof this spring.

Sorry, hun. I'm with him on this one.

(she was a delight, friends.)
Home from today's Makers' Market and although it was but a smoll craft fair, I did make a few sales and discussed a custom order with someone.

And now i need to eat and recuperate quickly because I have to leave for work in a little bit.

I am sorry to report the addition of minnows to the tank highlighted the unfortunate fact that turtles are not smart.
Bought the turtles some minnows while I was out today and it's almost turtle treat time.

They also have fresh lettuce but they won't be as excited about that.
