That is one of the most annoying songs......

We are back from the zoo. The cheetahs were awesome and the anteater had a baby on her back. I’m glad we left when we did because the wind started picking up and by the time we got done with lunch at In ‘n Out, dust was blowing everywhere. It is awful out there. I am so glad to be home and out of it. I hate wind.

Yep.

DD just asked me if it was required to have a medicine cabinet when you have kids. I wonder where she gets these things.

Supposedly we have a huge storm system coming in tomorrow night. I will believe it when I see it.

I do that, too. Makes me feel like I’ve accomplished something.

Yeah, well, at least they got beat by the Niners who have an awesome quarterback and a really good record this year. The Raiders got beat by the Jets, who have a losing record. That’s embarrassing.

Good Morning!!!, COFFEE!!!~D It’s vacation, people. I’m taking the girls to the zoo today. DS has soccer practice this morning. My mom is going to pick him up when it’s done and then take him to her house to cut wood with my dad. (He didn’t want to go to the zoo) Apparently my dad is obsessing about things again, mainly the wood that needs to be cut and stacked. He’s driving her nuts. He has slowly progressing dementia. Anyhow, I love the zoo. The Big City has a lovely zoo. This afternoon I guess I will make an Afsa order, bake some more bread for Thanksgiving and.... do something productive. Probably laundry.

That sounds awesome!!

I can’t. The tv is on the other side of the house from the kitchen and I have to make dinner. But I’ve been checking the score. I’m cheering for the Niners. All my other teams lost today.😩

My dryer has a box of Oxyclean on top and a gray and white cat who has discovered it is a very warm place to nap.

Oldest DD wants to change her name to Luigi. That’s about the extent of the excitement around here this afternoon. Yawn.

I have never had a tassie. I wouldn’t know one if I saw one.

34-3. 😢

Raiders are now losing 20-3. This is not good. We are having tortilla soup for lunch. Just open a whole bunch of cans.

There’s always time for a nap.

We churched. We are back!! Go Sportsball!!🏈🏈🍂🍂🍁 The Raiders are losing.😩 But it’s only by 10 and we aren’t at half time yet.

Lol. I didn’t even look at the year!

I just stick it in a roasting pan. Stick a bunch of onion and celery into the cavity, put butter under the skin, salt and pepper it, put foil on the br3ast and roast at moderate heat, basting every 45 minutes. I’ve tried brining (too messy and too much trouble) and different ways of roasting, but.... IMHO, if anything is different, it’s too subtle for me to tell.

DH and DS gave two thumb’s up for Ford v Ferrari. It was apparently a well made and well-acted movie. Oh, I got the Booya/h this time. Yay for me!! It’s a Motorhead Booya/h!!!🚗🚗

Oh, and I have no idea when to predict Baby Cheetoe’s arrival. I just want him to arrive safe and healthy.

Good Morning!!! COFFEE!!!!~D Church!!⛪️⛪️ Sportsball!! I will likely bake some bread this afternoon for Thanksgiving and work on preparing work samples for upload. They were due Friday.😩😩 I got all the easy ones done. Now I have the hard ones to piece together. And I need to nag a few students who did not turn work samples in yet.

The first two turned out ugly. The third looks really good. I don’t care. They are in the freezer. I think I will try that recipe. The cayenne pepper sounds very intriguing. I would love it if you came. Yay!! I love pecan pie. And it always reminds me of that scene in “When Harry Met Sally”. Pecan piiiiiiiiieeeeeee. Excellent Haiku. We need to publish a book “ITT Wit, Witticisms and Haiku”

Two down, one more to go. I need to decide with 27 people.... I think I need 4 pies. Then we will have leftovers. I made enough dough for 4 crusts, but one fell apart so badly when I was rolling it out, I tossed it. I never re-roll dough.

Rolling pie crusts out is butt. That is all.😡😡😡😡😡
