On the homestead blog: this week’s Flock Friday is more of a Duck Friday. No chicken pictures this week; I’ll try to capture some in the coming week for next time. In the meantime, enjoy pictures of the quackers. #FlockFriday 🦆

The Micro.blog challenge word for day 27 is “dilemma”. Paladin is on the comfy blanket on my office couch, so Pippin has a dilemma of where to go; my lap, or downstairs to @jidabug’s lap? 📷🐈 #mbnov
Paladin and Pippin in my office. 🐈
The Micro.blog challenge word for day 26 is “adjust”. Here’s the table setting for Thanksgiving last year. This year requires some adjustment, just Jenn and me. Stay safe out there, so you can celebrate future Thanksgivings! 📷 #mbnov
Happy Thanksgiving to those in the US! For Throwback Thursday, here is part of our feast from five years ago, in 2015. 🥔🦃 #ThrowbackThursday
The answer to today’s #WhatsItWednesday question, as correctly identified on Micro.blog: a 5.25” floppy disk. This one with Pascal for Apple ][ on it, from about 1985. One of a few I still have in a carrying case.
Let’s play What’s It Wednesday again. What do you think this is? #WhatsItWednesday
The Micro.blog challenge word for day 25 is “call”. In moving back to my upstairs office, I didn’t bother plugging in my landline extension, since I never use it anyway — we have the most basic phone plan on it, with a per-minute charge for an outgoing call. 📷☎️ #mbnov
Paladin didn’t like to snuggle on me in my downstairs office, but seems to have decided that upstairs is okay. 🐈
We ordered a 14 lb whole turkey from Crowd Cow last week, which they shipped in 5 lb of dry ice. That would have been fine, except FedEx left it laying around their depot for a week, so it arrived totally defrosted, and we have to throw it out. 📦🦃
