I was doing a return today, and while I was out I figured that I would stop by the grocery store to figure out what we would have for Thanksgiving dinner.
Big mistake. Big. Huge.
I didn’t think that many people would be shopping on an early Friday afternoon of a long weekend.
I thought wrong.
It was chaos, so I ended just running around getting a mixture of things to have for dinner. I don’t enjoy that holiday anyway.
Nor do I enjoy cooking a big meal that 1/4 of the people eats. So a collection of things that everyone eats it will be.
I should have just went with Thanksgiving tacos and pie.
In case you missed it, I pulled together my 12 Pieces for a fall capsule wardrobe yesterday. It was fun, and now that the October heatwave seems to be over, I can really dive into my fall wardrobe.

It’s really cool seeing the Hopewell mounds on the Unesco list. When I was a kid we lived in Louisiana for a few years and I went on a school field trip to similar ancient mounds. Years later, we had long since moved out of state but were in the area and my dad was interested in going but we could not for the life of us find it and had no idea of the name. I eventually figured it out – Poverty Point. And it is also a Unesco World Heritage site now! At some point we’ll be back in the state to see my grandmother, maybe we can go then.
I was really happy to see a Canadian indigenous site added as well. Plus some huge marine fossil filled island off of Quebec that I hadn’t even heard of before.
