Trying to find an ev charger for the electric rental car. Budget didn't give me a home adapter. Three strike outs so far. I'm stopping for emotional support tacos and horchata.

Oh, to have the emotional security of a zonked, belly-up puppy. Not likely today, or for the next 4 years. #dogsofbluesky #maltese

Attempting to make Chex mix in the UK. Crushed rice cakes are a B- substitution for rice Chex. Lentil crisps are an A+ substitution.

What's the weirdest Thanksgiving/holiday dish in your family? Ours is "pink food," a Midwestern raspberry "salad" that is essentially raspberry whipped cream. But it wouldn't be a holiday without it in our family!

Remembering years ago when my mom announced that we would have Cornish game hens for Thanksgiving, and my daughter was very disappointed that no Cornish gay men showed up for dinner.

Aw man, I missed #doctorwhoday? Bad form for someone who threw a doctor who themed birthday party for her daughter so epic that it was featured on the 50th anniversary special on SyFy/BBC America.

I have liked TWO skeets today that took the number from 999 to 1k so I'm feeling pretty accomplished and satisfied with myself.

I need a little dopamine today, and I happen to have circles of the rainbow frosting in the freezer. It feel like a homemade rainbow oreo kind of afternoon. Only question is if I stick with chocolate or make a different flavor for the cookie part? #cookies #rainbow
