Happy Turkey Day!

As most of you probably know today was Thanksgiving for those of us up north in Canada. So I got an extra long weekend to spend with family and eating food.

I didn't have any pumpkin pie though, maybe I'll buy one just for myself.

So I'm going to keep this post short because I feel lazy. Quick update regarding various things. Unfortunately I was unable to find anything on my date with Theresa so I'm thinking of just getting her a game via Steam. BUT, she's busy this entire week and next week so I could play the "I had your gift but you were to busy so I saved it for later" card and just have more time to get a gift. If that made sense.

This would also buy me more time to find a recipe for something to cook/bake for her. If I can't find one in time I think I'll just cook her lunch on campus using one of the few recipes I'm actually good at. It's angel hair pasta in a tomato broth and she loves it BUT I've cooked it for her a few times and I don't want to look like a one-trick pony.

This bird could probably cook better than me.

And to end, here's this cat video that I find hilarious but Theresa finds really annoying.

I feel bad for laughing but that doesn't stop me.

  1. Happy Turkey day to you!

    I wish we had days like those in South America. At least today I didn't go to class, since it's October 12th. Thanks, Colombus!

  4. There's a lot of simple stuff you could make. Like in Shona's 'I shouldn't But I Must' blog, I learned how to make cheesecake strawberry's. Super easy, can't go wrong, perfect for certain situations. And the week thing makes sense, I do that all the time, I just pretend that >I< was busy instead. Cough.

    Sounds like something from exorcist movie.
    Interesting that in both vids the cat's owners are probably russian. Wonder what they feed cats in Russia.
