What's on your Menu Today (Wednesday) RNYers?
on 11/23/16 4:32 am - GTA, Ontario, Canada
Good morning Menu Friends! How is everyone? I am good! Who's ready for Thanksgiving? Who is taking an extra long weekend? Are you hosting or going to someone else's house? I was really sick with that nasty cold going around for our Thanksgivings so I didn't go anywhere but lie on my couch and feel like I was dying so will live vicariously through all of you!
QOTD: Black Friday shopping? Yay or Nay? Are you a get up early, get in line at the stores and shop till you drop? Are you an online shopper and your fingers will be flying over the keyboard making online purchases? Or do you just ignore the whole thing? I keep getting email notifications from Amazon all a lot of stuff I have looked at recently that is going to be really marked down so I might partake in some online shopping but it's normally not a thing for me.

Good morning Daisy. I'm at work today, as I will be on Friday. Drew the short stick this year.
Two interviews today, cross your fingers or swing a chicken or something for me. I need a challenge and it needs to happen soon! Plus more money would be a bonus.
QOTD: I typically go Black Friday shopping with my mom and sister and teenage son, but this year will be working. I've bought more online this year than ever before and I do have to admit I like the ease of it. I can see it being a future pattern.
B- chobani flip, irish tea w/SF creamer
L- shrimp with ****tail sauce
D- 3 oz deli ham, slice of cheese, egg over easy
S-Cheddar cheese stick

Good Morning All,
I'm in to work early this morning so I can get home early, though traffic will be terrible no matter what. We are headed to my sisters tomorrow morning. I will try to prep my casseroles tonight.
QOTD: Use to love Black Friday shopping, now I hate it. I will check out online deals and I may venture to the appliance deal to see if the fridge I want is on sale, we are planning on buying it in January but if it's on sale I will get it early.

Hi all
quick reply for me- trying to get things done for thanksgiving- we are having company coming tomm- turkey is still thawing- so annoying- bought it sunday. we are having traditional with all the fixings. i made two pies last night- they were a hybrid pumpkin/sweet potato/pecan. DH said it was yummy (I made one for him).
menu today will be leftovers and i will probably pickup dinner on way home from grocery store.
black friday i generally don't go anywhere but shop online. already bought from kohls- lol- I bought an aeropress coffee maker from kohls- it does make a really good cup of coffee in a really short amount of time. the quality of taste seems way better than drip coffee so I might be putting away the big maker except for company

I've thought about getting a coffee press. I LOVE coffee, and it seems that my love for the stuff is growing right now! I've been a decaf person most of my adult life, so I've always been the one that drinks coffee strictly for the flavor, and it's SO HARD to find really good decaf out in public.
