My mom used to complain that I was a messy cook (which I was). Not anymore. The kitchen is clean, everything is cut and just needs to be cooked. Happy turkey weekend, Canada!
Covered pots and pans wait on a cool, clean stove. A pie and bag of fresh buns are seen to the side.

Meta glasses are stupid. I can't think of a single non-pervy reason why anyone would wear them.

What's good about snow on Thanksgiving weekend is it expands the fridge space. 🙃

Yep. Especially when you have to walk the dogs.

It's not unusual. We play a game every year, betting on whether we get snow for Halloween. This won't stay, but it could be a warning.

We have snow!
A tin roof that looks out over a green and autumn-coloured yard is dusted with wet snow.

I think the 9 (or at least the first 5) are just a thermometer to see how much push-back she can expect if she moves forward anyway.

Well done. I was looking for green beans yesterday and there were none. ☹️

Decided not to make potatoes with tonight's turkey and I wonder if I'm going to regret it. Instead, I'm putting cream cheese in mashed rutabaga. True, you probably don't want to put gravy on it, but there will be stuffing!

The light was just perfect, the blues were stunning. This helps to remind me there’s good in this world. #peacenow #photography

It's not about the Nobel Peace Prize. It's because Trump and his cronies want the freedom to do whatever they want without ever being held accountable.

My mom has decided she's not coming to Thanksgiving dinner, offering a number of excuses. Perhaps the only one that makes sense is, "I'm almost 80 and I can do what I want."

Ooooh... Love this! Would it be weird if I did that on the bus? Haha

It's getting harder and harder to be rational when we're getting smacked in the face every day by greed, carelessness, and stupidity.

Is anyone surprised? I just assume oil and gas has a few seats saved.

Perhaps you should have opened a second beer and topped-up the first. Then finished the second as well, obviously.

Just received my DNA results and apparently my lineage can be traced back to a pumpkin patch nestled in fog on a cool October day with the sound of crows in the distance.

Someone referred to fall as "cozy season" and this is what I will call it from now on.

Not following the straw idea but I admire your commitment.

Update: the missing cheese has been found. Strangely, in the exact place I was looking for it.

Michelle @ghostycarrot.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
That's unfortunate. Saskatoon jelly is hit-and-miss and it sounds like you got a miss.

Oof. Do I go with my instincts, or listen to Cedrix?

Trying to recreate my Grandma's Saskatoon berry pie without a recipe, attempt #8. Every year, I get a little bit closer. We'll know on Saturday how I did this year.
An unbaked pie sits on a table in front of a window.

Thank you. We've tried to make it a cozy extension of our living space. I realized just now that I always take pictures from the same angle. Here's the other half.
Long back yard in late summer: the grass is green, leaves are falling off one tree in the distance, and a foot high deck supports an all season gazebo.

Thanks, Joanne!

Smiling sheepadoodle stands on the deck. If she could speak she'd say, what's up? Let's play. WHY ARE YOU JUST SITTING THERE?

Finally enjoying the yard after a summer of rain - mosquitos - rain - mosquitos - GNATS - wasps... The wasps are still here and watching me closely but I've decided I'm bigger than they are. Fudge 'em.
Sunny yard with a fire pit in the foreground, a hammock to the left, and mixed garden in the back.

I had very little success with produce this year, thanks to unprecedented rain. My perennials looked amazing though!

Meant to work on a Christmas project yesterday but got distracted by my over-run inboxes. Cleaned out 15,000 bits of spam yesterday. Why bother? I don't know. They'll probably be back but for right now, it feels pretty good.

Yummy!! Fresh beets are amazing. Sadly, I haven't had much luck with them in my garden over the last few years. ☹️

A good person would have chased me down. Lol. I know it made it home. I'm a bit worried I put it away in the wrong place. A month from now, I'll be looking for the source of the stinky cheese odor.

Big enough that I should have been able to make two lasagnas and still have some left over.

I suppose I did make lasagna.

I seem to have lost a Costco-sized container of parmesan cheese. No way I used all of it in a week... Right?

Glad I'm not the only one questioning Danielle's use of tax dollars for separatist propaganda. And yep, that's how I feel about the first 9 questions, too. It's all a power grab.

I think I've had soup made with beans and ham. And I love cornbread. 😋 That, and brisket are Hubs' favourite things to make.

Michelle @ghostycarrot.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
Interesting. Is that like beans on toast? Are the pinto beans in a sauce?

Beans on buttered toast. But this looks good too.
