Happy Black Friday everyone! Is that even still a thing? I've never done that anyway but after seeing a bazillion "black Friday deals start now" a month ago and the shipping issues, I wasn't sure if people were waiting until now. I've been done since October first, a month earlier than usual and I've been wrapped since then too so that is always a BIG relief to not have that to worry about.
We had a nice Thanksgiving for two yesterday. I've gotta say, I love being able to watch the parade without having to cut my viewing short to make like half the Thanksgiving dishes for 20 people. (2-3 pies, mashed potatoes most years, stuffing, and sometimes an appetizer if they want my cheeseball.) Technically, yes I still made all of those things and more but I did most of them ahead of time and froze them and the pies on Wednesday so it was nice to only have Grandma's noodles to make that day. Still in a food coma and leftovers are on tap for tomorrow.
Now let's get to...

We don't have any plans that I'm aware of and thankfully since all of our Christmas stuff is up, I have that checked off my list. Actually, I need to make some of our cookie doughs to give future me a break and freeze them. Might have to bake one up for quality control purposes. 😝
What trouble are you getting into this weekend? Putting up decorations? OD'ing on leftovers?

Stores look like their typical amounts of people from what we can tell when we drive by, with Meijer being the exception as that is really packed in both parking lots. We went to the apple orchard as they close for the season this weekend and we got there right at 9am when they opened and were out of there 13 minutes later. It was nice to look inside as it had been a couple of years. Then we grocery shopped and will go back out one more time in about two hours to go get our booster shots (and me the 1st of 2 doses for the shingles vaccine). The rest of the weekend will be laundry, going through the mountain of packages that are arriving today, and going to work.
