Busy weekend ahead, 13 people for dinner in my tiny house Monday afternoon. Tonight, I am roasting pumpkins for pie, making pastry, fine-tuning shopping list for tomorrow, maybe taking bird out of freezer and into brine, but maybe tomorrow morning. Also sorting out fridge to make it as empty as possible for dinner ingredients then leftovers. I was a bit annoyed when the big guy got called out of town until Sunday noon, but honestly, it's sometimes easier to clean ("no, M, clean bathroom more important than vacuumed fish tank", lol) and shop and plan solo. I really need him mainly for opening and chopping, and I managed to dismember two pie pumpkins solo tonight, so we're good so far.
