On the menu

We're switching things up here at Chez Mystery this year. Christmas dinner will be tomorrow evening. The Thanksgiving Feast will be served Christmas Day. Yes, I know I'm Jewish. Wanna make something of it?

Tomorrow's menu:

• Standing Rib Roast au Jus
• Yorkshire Pudding
• Mashed Potatoes
• Brussels Sprouts and Pearl Onions in a Horseradish Cream Sauce
• Green Beans
• Pumpkin Pie
• Strawberry Shortcake

Do you think that's enough food for three?

Braces

MM has braces. Did I tell you? He's had his upper ones on since January, lower ones went on yesterday. He's being a total trooper about it. Excellent flossing technique.

This may or may not have anything to do with the fact that I decided to cook a lamb stew last night, where the lamb was tender and the vegetables were falling apart. The whole thing was very tasty and easy on a sore jaw. He's got leftovers in his lunchbox today, too.

I bought a box of Mallomars on Wednesday

I still have some of them left. This is an unprecedented feat of self-control.

Question for the reader: what is your food that, if it's in the house, you will eat it all up?

November 21

Apparently EVERYBODY who is having ANY SORT OF EVENT AT ALL is doing it on November 21. Please. People. There ARE OTHER DAYS TO DO THINGS.

Aaaand I lost

Muffin Man was Beast Boy for Halloween, btw. No need for new pix.

He's in his school's production of Seussical, very cool. I am excited to see it!
