Thanksgiving Venting Session!

Extended family + cooking. What could go wrong? Plus: If you shame your kids, will they talk to themselves that way forever?

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

We’re north of Chicago right now visiting my sister’s family, which has been super fun. My sister and I both have birthdays this week — mine yesterday, hers today. Lots of November celebrations! Don’t forget that I am running a 20% off forever birthday flash sale through Friday:

Get 20% off forever

Because guacamole is one of my favorite foods, my 9-year-old bought and made me a bunch of avocado-themed gifts, and my family also made me a chocolate peanut butter cake with Reese’s cups (another favorite food), which….. OMG.

Happy birthday to meeeeee

I am sure many of you are quite busy today, but please pop into the thread to share rants/complaints/cooking queries/funny stories! Or whatever you want!
