Closing in on Thanksgiving fast. We are going out of town on Weds, but there is a lot to be done before then. I think I will start packing today, so I can get some of that out of the way. I might buy the things for the pineapple casserole today, but we will see. I will be going to the city at some point or at least to the Walmart in this county and probably get them for less. Are you starting to prepare for Thanksgiving?
I just had some oatmeal for breakfast. Weight Watchers says it is 3 points per one cup cooked which is really good, but the serving size on the cannister says 1/2 cup which is 150. I know points matter rather than calories, but it just seems like alot. Unless they mean by the time you add the water or milk it is one cup. I might check on that. What did you have for breakfast?

I bought the pasta salad ingredients in my Walmart order today. So I should have everything, and since our family Thanksgiving is actually a week from today, I’ll have plenty of time to make it.
Hopefully, you have an awesome Thanksgiving with your family!
I’ll be watching the miserable Cowboys play the pathetic Giants.

@snowy22315 The Lions are playing the Bears (bad game), the Cowboys are playing the Giants (worse game), and then the nightcap should be decent with the Packers playing the Dolphins.

Thanksgiving is approaching. I hope you will have wonderful celebration.
If I make my oatmeal I mix it with the Very Nutty Granola.

@snowy22315 People at work don't like the granola, they don't like the texture. So I can have more portion for me. It's free in the office so I bring in instant oatmeal in the office and get the granola mix from our pantry

I am stocking up on items in the grocery store that I fear will rise in price in the new year.
I do this every year about this time of the year.
I'm also looking at any brands that are US based because when DT puts his tariffs on those items I will no longer be buying them.
You have a busy week planned and I am hoping for a nice and quiet week.
My breakfast was a coffee and a little dish of cinnamon oat flakes and fresh strawberry slices.

That sounds good. I am afraid Trump is going to ruin the economy. Hopefully, someone can talk him out of these tariffs.

@snowy22315 I suggested to my hubs that I buy him a couple of pairs of Levis to put away before the tariffs hit. He told me that they are made in China-go figure the parent company in the US but made in China. I have already stopped buying Campbells soup and started with another brand. The frito-lay company won't be hard to part with, they are already very expensive here.

@Juliaacv I paid 6 something for some kind of Fritos thing. It was delicious, but I was stupid to pay so much

not preparing for Thanksgiving, but our group of friends is considering making a "Friendsgiving". i don't know how i feel about that.
i think the oatmeal thing could mean when it's made, so including milk. still, you should check it out, that's just my opinion 
nothing yet, i'm drinking coffee and eating bar of kinder bueno (very healthy, i know)
