@jon-nyc Did you get what you needed? I hope so!

That looks like a fairy land! Stunning.

@wtg Tin Can Knits does excellent patterns!

Oh good heavens. Did you finally get someone on the phone?

Congratulations! Enjoy your time!

I didn’t take my outdoor lights down last year; I just stopped turning them on. December 1 they went on! And I bought a wreath for outside. Nothing inside yet.

@RealPlayer That’s interesting that she would know the difference. I found that the color change was so gradual, I had no idea that they were wrong. Until I had the first cataract surgery and could compare between the two eyes.

Also, did you know that you can get secondary cataracts? It’s a cataract of the lens capsule that holds the lens. Earlier this year I noticed that my vision was hazy, and it quickly got worse. A quick YAG laser zap fixed it for me last month. Whew!

I love soup weather!

@ShiroKuro Good luck tomorrow morning! Fingers crossed for you.

@chas You’ve been through a lot with your eyes! I hope you get a lens in there soon.

@bernard My friend accidentally killed her boyfriend’s 20 year old parrot last year by baking with a nonstick pan. You are right to be very cautious.

We have celebrated Thanksgiving for the last 43 years with Mr. AM’s family, round robin St. Louis/Chapel Hill/Queens or Portland after we moved back home. Most recently always in St. Louis where Mom is now in memory care. This year we celebrated it last week (easier travel, less expensive) in St. Louis. Today in Portland with my side of the family! Two Thanksgivings, lots of fun.

That’s pretty good!

Tangy Braised Chickpeas from Smitten Kitchen. Like brisket without the brisket. Mushrooms and carrots star here!

I’m afraid to click that link. The pop up ads that would result!

@ShiroKuro are you able to pedal, after your most recent injuries? Hoping yes!

@AndyD In my FB memories from 2018 today, I lost a battle with the car door. Click…OUCH!

That cut into knitting time, but it also cut me some slack during Thanksgiving dinner prep.

The one thing I do before posting pictures is run them through an image sizing app, so it’s only a couple hundred KB instead of 4 MB each. Trying not to make them costly for the forum to host.

@AndyD Beautiful! Our Christmas cactus is blooming, too. It likes its sunny window.

@ShiroKuro I am so sorry to hear this! There’s really no way to not use your legs/feet, so it’s hugely impactful when one or both of your feet are not in good shape. I hope the swelling goes down quickly, and that you can figure out a way to get around reasonably.
