Surprise and Turkey

How did I make it through last week, unscathed? I'm shocked myself. At least this week will be quick and short. I have an oral quiz today for my Mandarin class, then I'll be out running for 1.5 to 2 hours this evening. Tomorrow I have work then I tutor a new little girl in reading. Afterward, more running. At least there will be daylight. Wednesday, I think I work?? I'll be taking a break from running on Wednesday because Thursday will be the big day. =/ I'm finding it particularly hard these days in coordinating my outfits. I try to make each of my outfits flow from work to school to volunteering at my local elementary school to my night outfits (if I do intend to go out for cocktails that night.) I've talked to Mermaid about this before (she's a teacher) and since we both have interesting choices on how we dress, not tasteless fashion, but the way we dress do cause some eye rollings at our respective schools of work/volunteer. So how would I roll from work to school? Or work to elementary school? Or school to happy hour? Or from work to gym/jogging? Ahhh, quite a dilemma isn't it? What outfits would be most appropriate. Maybe I should talk to Mermaid about documenting our outfit ventures. On another note, Thanksgiving is this week! I can't wait! We're having the traditional turkey and honey ham with yummy stuffing. We're also making curry as an entree dish as well because I'm half South Asian and it just makes sense to have our specialty spicy dish on a cold November evening. Then we got the knick knacks of food to grub on: candy yams, honey biscuits, corn muffins, my mom's secret, my aunt Jenny's secrets, and my aunt Vanny's secret. I hear a persimmon dish will be there too. But that's only a rumor. I'll be making pumpkin pie, chocolate cupcakes (yes Leslyn, I'll drop some off at your place), and maybe tiramisu. Philliam is going to try and "woo" my mom by making cheesecake pumpkin pie. Although, he needs my helps. -___- There will be other people there as well who are bringing dishes over for our evening feast. My glutton ass can't wait!
