I should buy a muu-muu.
Sneezing-coughing-sniffling: not helping my productivity. Most of the cleaning is done, but none of the cooking intended for today. It's going to be a long night, but I don't dare brew coffee or there will be no sleep at all.
To-do, to-night:
I decided to go with the Good Eats Roast Turkey recipe, as it looks fairly foolproof. Also on the menu: butternut squash soup, ham, green beans, broccoli spears, cranberry salad, mashed potatoes & gravy, sweet potato casserole, wild rice stuffing, dinner rolls and last but not least, both pumpkin and pecan pie. After dinner I'll be putting on my comfy-stretchy yoga pants, since that might be the only thing that will fit.
EDIT: Because I have so much to do, it seemed wise to sit down with a mug of hot tea and watch Project Runway. I know, I KNOW.
