Bow Tie Tuesday

[fflo]

Here it is, Bow Tie Tuesday.  I went with a rerun, cuz the shirt I got ready to wear wasn't gonna work with the one tie I have made and ready, plus I sorta wanna save it for next week anyway, for slightly embarrassing reasons.

This is Thanksgiving week, in case you hadn't noticed.  For the first time our office is closing for both Thursday and Friday.  Perhaps Friday will be yardwork-friendly.  It's real cold now, and some wet snow is out there.  And I guess there's supposed to be more precip over the next coupla cold days.

I've been cooking for myself a lot lately.  Somehow I'm often tempted, as I leave the office, to pick up something on the way home that someone else cooked, and that is (thus) already cooked.  Doesn't help that it's dark out, or close to it.  Still seems later in the day than it is.

I do feel a bit blah.  But now down, exactly.  A little blah, that's all.

That's great that you're cooking more than going out. Great way to save money. Are you cooking anything specifically on Thanksgiving?

I dunno. Nothing in mind right now. I recently got an invitation to dinner and had thought (cuz I wouldn't want to go empty-handed) that I could make sweet potato biscuits, despite not wanting to go to the grocery store during this crazy time. But then I remembered that my oven doesn't work, and I couldn't really make enough for a party in the toaster oven.

The invite is (happily) a no-commitment-needed thing. But it's an option, if spending the day winterizing and such doesn't turn out to be the desirable plan after all.

Maybe this winter I'll get the kitchen in order and buy a new stove. So what if it's debt. I'm quite accustomed to debt. And a working oven is nice. It could even have burners I don't have to light with matches!

If you go, I hope you have a splendid time :)

I think a new stove is a good debt to have; it's something you know you'll use day in and day out (or at least several times a week if any).
