The lady has no assignments until later today so we took advantage of it and made chorizo, egg and potato breakfast burritos w/ fresh homemade tomatillo & cilantro salsa. I'm now ready to face the day.

Also waffle makers.

Flat screens are suppose to be real cheap this year. Cheapest ever on Black Friday (this is how you get a thread back on track).

Mods can't be everywhere and do everything. Admins are omni present and omnipotent, but hey it seems like a nice little thread to me.

We are, but I also possess a sense of humor. If this thread were on track from the get go, I wouldn't have posted about my breakfast. It's become a common theme around here to talk about food when a thread looks like it's going nowhere and I happen to find it quite funny.

I agree that info about Black Friday sales would be cool to have and quite useful, but I also feel it would be just as easy and make more sense to post such info in the "Great Deal/Sale" thread which already exists (and is a sticky).

fair enough. no harm, no foul

to try and stray back on track, i just got the e-mail that competitive cyclist will be holding their "12 days of christmas" sale again this year, and there were some nice deals they offered last year. i recommend signing up for their e-mail list if you're not on it already.

maybe this should be a cyber monday thread anyway.

I've been eating Kix for breakfast lately, with Original Almond Breeze (OAB). It's a solid, economical choice, and not a ****ton of sugar like most breakfast cereals.

Cinnamon Toast Crunch.

Since last Thursday, I've had two full Thanksgiving meals. And I have another one coming up this Thursday.

Win.

You can make really good grilled cheese sandwiches with a sandwich/panini press.

Which will be on sale at Target and Walmart on Black Friday.

BOOM BACK ON TOPIC!
