turpsIt was sad news about Aaron Carter, not surprising as his life has been messed up for a long time, but still sad.
Mini wrimo continues to go well, especially yesterday as while looking at Gdocs I wondered what the last unnamed file in there actually was, and found a Musketeers thing I'd started in the summer. Thinking back it was supposed to be for the Sunshine Challenge but I just never finished it, so I did yesterday. I think I may post it as well as the bandom ficlet to A03 and call them the mini wrimo collection, unbeta read, read at your own risk, and then add anything else I come up with.
It's the start of the Christmas advert season. So far I've enjoyed Asda and Buddy the Elf and the Lidlteddy bear.

Sadly, the tickets sold like wildfire and were all gone when we decided to book.
But, I did tell Dine I should share the menu and see if it stood up as a Thanksgiving meal, though I am aware there are a lot of regional variations. Also, in the post attached to the menu, they said how turkey wasn't involved simply because all donated turkeys would be used for the meal they put on for free for anyone in need on Christmas day. Menu is
Most of it sounds nice, but I must admit, I remain dubious at the thought of marshmallows in a main dish.
