Happy Friday friends!
Is it true? I suppose it is. I batted my baby blues and WHAM! Thanksgiving is somehow set to appear in front of us in just 6 short days.
Last year we escaped to Turks and Caicos for the holiday and savored fresh caught conch instead of turkey for our big day dinner. Or maybe we had Thai food? Or was that the night we went out for Italian? No matter what we ate, the important thing is we were together!
This year, my husband and I were conned volunteered to host my man’s side of the family which could turn into 20+ people at our house. While I’m not too stressed about it thanks to hostessing tips like these finally sinking under my entertaining skin, I AM thinking there’s pretty much nothing wrong with eating out on turkey day :).
Just sayin’.

But enough about me, let’s roll up our sleeves and do the dishes dig into this week’s Friday Faves!
So apparently the mannequin challenge is a real thing because once dogs start in on the game, it’s officially trending as evidenced by the video below. I don’t think I could train my husband to do that, let alone a dog! Although, his nickname IS GDawg…
These rolls are EXACTLY why you should add garlic butter to the turkey day menu. STUNNNNNERS.
I LOVE this Stranger Things Thanksgiving menu. So frigging cute. Eleven’s Eggo Waffle Stuffing? Totally on point!

BRB, this hotdish is calling my name.
This no-bake pie is begging to be part of my Thanksgiving festivities.

This apple/cran pie combo is a tart bite I’d eat all day.

It’s officially cookie season! Here’s the best way to ship them to those you love.
And holy cow, so is this epic looking creamed spinach!
Call me cheesy, but this fondue looks so dreamy.
Speaking of cheese…
Mac & cheese + pie = I’ve died and gone to carb heaven. Have mercy!
So now that a new family is moving in, what happens to the vegetable garden??!??!!!!??
and on that note…
How to avoid family political fights in 60 seconds. Because, you know, family…

Okay, one more dog video because JUST LOOK AT HIM! He’s a spitfire dynamo!
Reading about these 9 acts of kindness is so welcoming this week (#2 and #4 are especially getting to me).

Recipes I Pinned This Week
I’ve got my eye on some swoon-worthy Thanksgiving sweets this week. Here are a few recipes I’ve pinned, that I think you should definitely pin as well.
Cranberry, Caramel and Hazelnut Tart
This Thanksgiving color-coordinated tart is a showstopper (for your table and your tastebuds).
Custardy Crème Fraîche Apple Pie
This is not your mama’s apple pie (but it’s just as good, AND I love that you don’t have to deal with pie crust)! Plus, look at that amazing crunchy topping it has…
Browned Butter Sweet Potato Squares
I could get lost in those mesmerizing burnished meringue swirls all day…

There is a reason why I bought a Mac, it was not to be one of the cool kids that wanted the best of the best. No it was because of the music production I do on it. Hours and hours sitting in front of my Mac copying, pasting, moving, deleting, hour after hour just beating on my Mac in a endless assault to get my work done. That is the key part, my work. I work from home, it is great, but even if it is from home it is still work and it still needs to get done. So my Mac, I have it because it is fast, gets the job done and comes back for more.
But what happens when it doesn’t want to do those things anymore?
I move around massive amounts of information and yes even on the almighty Mac this can cause a problem after a while. Things fragment, programs get corrupted issues come up. My light speed Mac slows down to a crawl and all of the sudden I simply can not get any work done. Because I work from home there is no IT guy to call and ask to come fix it. No instead I have to figure out what is wrong. I am lucky, I did, but not after trying everything under the sun first and wasting countless hours looking for one program that can do what I needed instead of ten programs. One program to lead them all….okay that was a lame Lord of the rings reference, but that program was/is Detox My Mac. A simple to use program that did not just fix my issues, it put my Mac on overdrive again. A few clicks and my Mac was clean and ready to rock and roll again.
