nablopomo, day 23 [thanksgiving food shopping, part 1]
the temperatures only went up to the mid-40s today, so i started my day with a stumptown breakfast once again. maybe it was the cold or the fact that i was there by 9:30am, but there were a few empty tables for me to choose from. i had an artisinal pop tart, which was very tasty, and planned my shopping.
today i got a few staples for thanksgiving. i bought lemons and oranges (um, not that the farmer's market, obviously), and then sage, apple cider, milk, cream, buttermilk, potatoes, onions, and goat cheese at the market. i am not entirely sure yet what i'll make aside from my trusty apple chestnut stuffing, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, and spicy sweet potato wedges. oh, and i will definitely make these amazing-sounding orange and cranberry breakfast buns one of the days after thanksgiving. i might also make turkey for the first time! not a whole turkey, but whole foods sells small stuffed turkey breasts ready to roast, and i will get one if they still have them on wednesday (that's when i'll get up extra early to hit the farmer's market for the last fresh ingredients). i have also pretty much settled on this pear, cranberry, and gingerbread crumble for dessert.
i finished my first fic for feelstide, and i'm pretty happy with it. 2,200 words of sleeping bag snuggles in the snow, with some sex that i had not planned, but that phil and clint insisted upon (clint in particular).
i also watched the doctor who 50th anniversary special, which i enjoyed a lot, and of course i also saw the 30sec-long new sherlock trailer. how can they still not figure out when they'll actually air the new eps of sherlock??
