According to the HE calendar (Holocene Era or Human Era), the current year is 12023. This marks the period when humans transitioned from hunting and gathering, into an agricultural society with more permanent settlements.
We're doing well, thanks. Max is eagerly anticipating Halloween in three days' time. For him, I think it's less about the candy and more about dressing up in costume. (!!!) I know, I know! What kid doesn't get excited about candy?
Oh, but other than that, I think I'll make pumpkin French toast for breakfast tomorrow.
Hey, Tea Bat!
Max is allergic to turkey, as it happens. So, for Thanksgiving, we often do a roasted chicken, Cornish hens, or a baked ham instead. Could be a fun idea to have a Chinese-themed menu this year.
Glad you had a good time, Terry. Way to go on the pool table!
Yeah, Max is too fond of frogs as an animal lover, to ever eat one. Chinese duck, on the other hand, is something he's been keen to try for a while now. I'd rather order it from a restaurant, since it takes quite a bit of work to prepare.
Reminds me of the "Goosebumps" series of books by R.L. Stine. In every book, you think the ending is going to turn out okay, but then there's a plot twist that isn't so good for the MC.
I can't say I'm really into horror stories, but I DID enjoy the movie "Violent Night". It's like an R-rated version of Home Alone!
We're doing well, thanks. We'll be doing our grocery shopping tonight, after dinner. Max has his annual physical checkup on Saturday, and I promised him we'd go for cider and donuts afterwards. For now, though, I'll do some laundry, feed Sneakers, and then maybe do a bit of dusting around the house.
