ysobeltwo types of salad, turkey, ham, sage stuffing, peas and shallots, roasted brussels sprouts / carrots / onions, green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole, mashed potatoes, potato rolls, and like eight types of pie (including: pecan, pumpkin, sweet potato, apple, chocolate cream, key lime, and idk what else) with real whipped cream.
All homemade, all insanely good, and there was even a centerpiece that was a handmade cornucopia made out of bread and containing actual fruots and vegetables.
I ... am going to go into a food coma now, lol

holiday_wishesI was quite shocked to not only realize it was time to post over here, but that also this is my third year participating! Wowza! Anyhoodles, I'm wishing everyone a safe, happy, calm, and healthy holiday season! May 2026 be a great year for all of us. đđđ
NGL, the bulk of my list is a reprise from last year's, though there's a new thing here and there.
NO COST AND/OR MINIMAL EFFORT
1. Leave comments on folk's fanworks. Don't stress abt how how old or recent the fic, fanart, fanvid, etc is because even a simple "I liked this!" will be v. welcomed. This is a link to my fanworks over at AO3 if you'd like to start with me. đ
2. If you're a fanwork creator, please make sure to have a Blanket Permission statement on your profile at your preferred posting platform. This will help folks who might want to record a podfic, create fanart, etc inspired by your fanwork. Here's an explanation of what a BP is.
3. Would LOVE to get recs for romance novels featuring MCs who are 40-y.o. and older. I prefer to read abt queer pairings, btw.
4. Go check out and/or join these fandom reccing communities on DW:
recthething (full disclosure: I'm one of the admins for that one), fancake (a monthly, theme based reccing comm), and fanart_recs.COSTS MONEY (but let me dream big)
5. Amazon e-gift cards for any amount. They can be sent to mazingergirlie AT gmail (dot) com.
6. Donate to local food banks (preferably cash).
7. Donate to animal shelters if you've got some coin to spare.
8. Donate to women's shelters (money or items such as menstrual products if you prefer )
Thanksgiving dinner is cooking
Nov. 27th, 2025 03:15 pmconulyAnyway, we've got chicken, creamed spinach, possibly creamed corn, maybe beets of some sort, maybe couscous, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes (with marshmallows, contributed by a guest), stuffing, cornbread, cranberry sauce, and pies. I'm debating making some soup as well, buuuuuuut I think we may have enough food and not enough bowls. Oh, and there's green beans. Oh, and brussels sprouts and a salad.
(Maybe I should've made baked beans? I wonder if I have time to make baked beans. Oh, but the chicken is in the oven. Hm. Can you make not-baked baked beans? Is that a thing?)

Holiday Wishes 2025
Nov. 26th, 2025 09:28 pmdoeeyedbecky posting in holiday_wishesFirst off, I hope everyone is safe and healthy this year.
1. ANYTHING off my Amazon Wish List. This is the link to my 'Holiday Wishes 2025' list, and then some sub-lists; a list of computer books I want, a list of writing books and a list of general Kindle Books I want.
2. More readers/followers for my books I'm an aspiring author, so I'd like more followers for my blog/readers for my books. My Author blog is at
https://authordaisyloveless.blogspot.com/
And from there you can find the links to my books on the 'My Books' page. All are in Kindle Unlimited, if that is more your thing!
3. More Facebook/Instagram followers Besides writing, I blog as a hobby, doing food reviews. I do share personal pics as well on Instagram, so itâs not all food. Iâd love to get some more followers!
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/missbeckyannsfoodblog/
Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/missbeckyann6879/
4. Gift Cards/E-certificates Subway, Walmart or amazon.com would ROCK my socks. We do most of our Non-food shopping at Amazon. We use Walmart a LOT for groceries, and Subway is the only restaurant near us that delivers.
5. AUTHENTIC Asian Ramen noodles In the past year, I've branched out through gifts, but I want to branch out more. Would prefer savory, but not super spicy. Nongshim Kimchi noodles (or jalapeno peppers) are about the spiciest I can handle. Please check the above wishlist to get a more accurate idea of my spice tolerance.
(Absolutely NO Buldak flavors, please⌠the spice level leaves me looking like I just had an âUgly Cryâ session)
6. Coffee/coffee creamers I am ADDICTED to these! Flavored is a plus, fave flavors being Cinnamon, Hazlenut, Pumpkin Spice, Peppermint and Irish Creme. Instant coffee is a MAJOR plus. We do have a knockoff Keurig, so K-Cups are cool, too!
7. Lip Balms Iâm not good with makeup, but Iâm addicted to lip balm. I prefer flavored and/or tinted. I have some on the wishlist above, if you want to get ideas of flavors.
8. Nail stickers/wraps This is the ONLY way I can do my nails. I canât afford a salon set, and I shake too much for traditional liquid nail polish (plus it bothers Mama Melissaâs asthma). I know the Jamberry company went under, but surely someone still has a stash floating around. If you do and youâre looking to unload some (or all) of your old stock, I will HAPPILY take them! (Iâll also take Lily And Fox or Dashing Diva brands, since they are the same thing, just different brands)
9. Stickers! Iâve developed a thing for stickers, like the kind youâd put on water bottles, skateboards, laptops, etc. Would love to get more to add to my collection!
10. Be Kind to one another Thereâs so much hate in the world⌠even a kind word to a stranger could make their day better.
( Address and contact info behind here... )
Happy Holidays, everyone!
Season's greetings
Nov. 26th, 2025 12:07 pmxehzee_sks posting in holiday_wishesI'm no good at this kind of thing and I'm certainly gonna get anxious after but here we go.
My wishlist:
1. Check my fandoms list at SquidgeWorld and watch/read/play the media from a fandom that caught your eye! That'd be enough for me.
2. Create something, anything and post it wherever you want. It may sound silly but in a world following the road to automated "art" (and everything else) anything made by hand is precious and shouldn't be left forgotten.
3. Join any writing communities here on Dreamwidth!
4. Create one fanwork for
smallfandomfest! 5. Book recommendations for a 12 yo that's into sports and wants to develop a reading habit.
6. Recently, my mother has been taking a lot of stray cats in her care, feeding them and taking care of a couple kittens, so if you so have it in your heart, an Amazon gift card could help her getting food and other items for them. She and the cats would be very grateful! And if that's not possible (since I don't know how that works because differences in countries and stuff):
7. Donate to your local animal shelter! â¤ď¸
8. Here's my Amazon wishlist (MX), MOSTLY wants and just for fun.
9. World peace.
10. Last but not least, give your pets lots of love. â¤ď¸â¤ď¸â¤ď¸
Thank you for reading.

Nov. 26th, 2025 11:54 amminoanmiss posting in agonyauntAddendum to yesterday's QOTD
Nov. 25th, 2025 08:39 pmbrithistorianAn addendum to yesterday's QOTD from Jim Henson: When I was growing up, Jim Henson meant a lot to me. Not only because I enjoyed the shows and movies he created, but also also because I knew that he was also from Mississippi, so seeing what he was able to accomplish gave me hope that I would be able to rise above my geographic origins and do something worthwhile. When seemingly everyone who produces everything you enjoy or admire is from someplace else, you cling that much harder to the one example you have who came from the same place you do.
Featured Article: Sansa Stark/Margaery Tyrell
Nov. 25th, 2025 05:00 pmfanlore_tumblr_feed
ALTWelcome one, welcome all to the Fanlore Featured Article; the ship of Sansaery, a femslash pair between the intelligent Sansa Stark of Winterfell, and the cunning Margaery Tyrell of Highgarden. In the canon these two queens are friends, both working towards securing their political ambitions and surviving the fictional book series (and future TV series) âA Song of Ice and Fireâ by George R. R. Martin published 1996 to current.
The Sansa Stark/Margaery Tyrell tag started off as a rare pair to enjoy but eventually exploded in popularity with the on-screen interaction between these two powerful women on the TV show Game of Thrones (“And Now His Watch Is Ended” during Season 3, episode 4). Fans attribute the episode to seeing the softer side we see of Margaery and the undertones of flirtation within their dialog, which left viewers seeing some undercurrents of romantic connection. This ship still holds power and place today as one of the most popular ships for the Game of Thrones franchise on AO3 while also holding high in published works for femslash on the site. These two ladies come together in the canon setting or even fun AUs like modern meet cutes.
If you want to see some of the highlighted fic recommendations or beautiful fanart of these two queens together head over to the Fanlore page and read on (and maybe get inspired to write your own).
