All the usual Thanksgiving prep in full swing -- including a 7am grocery store run because plans have been last minute this year and now I'm making more than I expected. All easy, but I need the stuff for loaded mashed potatoes and no way do I want to battle the afternoon crowds.
I tried a few roasted chestnuts from Trader Joe's. You score the flat surface and roast for 20 minutes. I let them cool and tried one. Didn't like it - soft and strange. I need to google recipes to use them or the bag is hitting the trash. It was fun to experiment though.

Fun on the agenda today is lunch with my aunt. She did the artwork for baby shower invites and I have a thank-you gift to bring her.
I'm starting to make headway with the new goal (fun) list for 2024. It takes a minute to get inspiration before ideas start flowing.
Coaching call this afternoon too. A little perspective on some long time friendships and navigating my new interests with people who seem to prefer my old interests.
The grocery store is calling -- time to run. Hope your week is going well. Later gators.
