[CS Lounge] Fall Festivities and Friends!

5 Likes

Speaking of cheesecake, I have a cranberry swirl cheesecake in the oven now. Recipe courtesy of Martha Stewart.

The family is going to my brother’s for Thanksgiving tomorrow and I was tasked with bringing candied yams and a dessert other than pumpkin pie. I thought Cranberry Swirl cheesecake sounded festive.

It sound both festive and delicious! I have not heard of that variety and honestly I would love it. Sweet, tart, creamy. Yum!

It is! I’ve made it before and it was a hit. I made homemade cranberry sauce yesterday so it would set up a bit. Probably one of the easiest things to make.

The ice cream cake isn’t. G.L.A.D.O.S. can never take the ice cream cake.

Good morning all. I have no idea what Panda is doing up and working before 6 am Texas time!

/sets out a giant mug of coffee for Orlyia specifically

:coffee:

/sets out round one of the coffee vats, hot water for tea, cocoa, etc. Snacks. Also some cranberry orange muffins, bagels, and fruit.

I did not get much sleep and am awake way too early. Blah.

…no bacon for me to ste–I mean enjoy with friends?

You took it all yesterday! Besides, apparently you have a secret stash of it somewhere.

Edit - I am also not awake enough to deal with stoves and hot grease. I would probably burn the house down.

But that’s my personal pocket bacon! I can’t share that!

I couldn’t even sleep at all due to someone throwing some bricks at my building. My partner called the police, but the police took so long to respond to this that by the time they arrived, the person who were throwing the bricks were long gone.

My kitten decided to get the zoomies - across my face.

Oh. Yeah that’ll do it. Ayu made a cake for you. Should be good to eat while you’re dealing with…whatever that is over there.

I’d offer bacon, but all I have left is my pocket bacon, and that’s mine.

Wait! Do you have a new kitten!??? Description? Name We need all the kitteny details.

I’ll totally stay awake a little bit longer for Kitty Detail time

Well, not so new anymore, but she isn’t by any means done growing yet. More a teenage brat at this point.

Our older cat is Xena - the new kitten is a siamese half-breed. We named her Gabby :stuck_out_tongue:

Xtra internet points if you get that reference.

Used to own a siamese cat that turned into a boxer cat. Parents had them declawed (Which is super not okay in my eyes) so they resorted to boxing and somehow got absolutely jacked for a cat. Gave me a black eye once.
