Penzey's is killing me with the "Canadian Powered" on the Dried Regular Mustard label.

I'm gonna need employers in the DMV to stop thinking $70/$75k a year is a reasonable high-end range of salary for the amount of experience they're looking for with non-remote options.

Is there a cozy Christmas British murder mystery out there?
December 3, 2025 at 11:12 PM
That looks about right. One’s great for working out & driving, the other’s great for work focus.

Oh no, I've discovered Trader Joe's frozen crispy shiitake mushrooms and I'm doomed to limited release heartbreak. I've only found them at the Clarendon location. 😭

Listen, the two times I’ve had intensive imaging (MRI/CAT), it’s because the doctors already knew things were bad, they needed to know HOW bad. Just sayin…

Figuring out how to get Stewart’s Peppermint Stick ice cream shipped to DC. IYKYK

I think Black Doves might be the Christmas series we need.

News, if true
In case anyone needed to know this, I have confirmed there are no manatees in the Rocky Mountains.

DC is great because of its community. HUGE shout out to @adicksondc.bsky.social for the holiday assist in braving the wilds of “North Bethesda” and making my stocking installation complete.

I'm not entirely sure what's going on here, or how it relates to a rural English museum, but I am intrigued.

I had a dream last night that featured James Bond played by Henry Golding so you’re welcome for figuring that out for everyone.

I just got to enjoy live jazz inspired by Vince Guaraldi’s Charlie Brown Christmas at The Hamilton Live and it was absolutely delightful. Even better with good friends. This might need to become a tradition.

Do I know anyone going by the LL Bean store in "North Bethesda" in the near future? The website sold out of the stocking hangers I need to match what I have but they have them at that store. Can't ship from the store 🙄 but can pickup. Willing to pay a courier fee (baked goods, beverage(s), etc.).

I'm bummed All Purpose stopped offering their garlic knots. Those and the Caesar salad could be a nice, lighter meal.

Gunning for favorite daughter* status by putting up outside lights in the cold and wind. I can't feel my fingers but it's looks pretty!
