aqua_permanens said this was freaky, and I think it's totally random, but it did turn up the first guy I had a serious crush on...

( ... is love thingie. )

And Happy Thanksgiving to people on my list who may or may not be spending the day in the kitchen. I am getting out of it this year, because John invited himself and the rest of us to his mom's, and I'm bringing salad and the following. Ruth in my garden club brought it to our meeting Monday night refreshments and it was pretty tasty and simple to make. Think of it as pumpkin pie you dunk cookies in:

Pumpkin Dip

2 cups confectionary sugar
1 8 oz package cream cheese
1 15 oz can of pumpkin
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ginger
(I think nutmeg and cloves would be good too, but that's my own opinion)

Mix the sugar and cream cheese until well blended. Stir in the pumpkin and spices and mix until smooth. Store in fridge until ready to use, and serve with ginger snaps, vanilla wafers, graham crackers, apple slices, or whatever else you think sounds good with pumpkin.

Actually, I used about a quarter of the amount of sugar, because the pumpkin pie filling I used was already sweetened, and it tasted fine.

Finally tried to do an oekaki, like bakayaro_onna has been trying to get us to do for so long. Took me awhile to work up the courage...
