Last meal until the day after thanksgiving


I don't know if anything will be open tomorrow after I get off of work at 6, so this is likely the last proper meal I'll have till the day after thanksgiving. I have beef sticks, cheese, rice and ramen, so I won't starve, just deeply annoyed with this time of the year when everything shuts down at thanksgiving, christmas, new years eve and new years day. I don't think the cafeteria will be open tomorrow here.

I guess I can track down a Sheetz gas station, but most of the ones I've been to don't have a active kitchen anymore, they just have hit lamped earmed foods from some other sheetz. I gotta figure out which one is the one making fresh food and tables to sit down at. If I even bother.

When I am not cooking Thanksgiving dinner myself...(and I didn't for two years because my wrists were badly injured and I couldn't lift a turkey out of the oven), I used to buy Market Basket frozen turkey dinners and kept them in my freezer till the "day".

There ARE restaurants everywhere open on Thanksgiving day, but you need a reservation. Just a thought for next year!

Sorry. I just read that you live in your van. I didn't mean to be insensitive.

@Dignaga I've seen those. They are like home made air conditioners. Washing the inside of a regular cooler, ie: thermos brand, with a mild bleach and water solution, once a week, prevents mold.
@4meAndyou I'm talking about mold growing under the carpet of the minivan.

@Dignaga Oh my gosh. THAT is terrible! I've combatted mold on the studs in my basement after the basement flooded. We had to throw away the carpet, though...and then bought a professional mold remover for the studs. It hadn't started yet...but I didn't want it to start.

You could possibly get a portion and save it for the next day...?
@being I built a tea nook in my haunted "office" at work for me and a few other employees. The alcohol burner would require at least 70% alcohol to burn, but better if it is 90% or denatured. I gave my last bottle of 90% alcohol to a homeless woman showing her how to turn a vienna saisage can into a stove. She wanted to cook a can of green beans but had to show her the inside of the can was lined in plastic and gave her a different brand.

I used to do book burning videos with my alcohol burning stove (can also burn wood and paper) whenever I did a book review on a terrible translation of a historical text on instagram. I would read a page, rip it out and burn it while mocking it. Made some great tea though.

@Dignaga thank you for sharing this. You've got interesting stories to tell.
Were you here with a different profile name ?
I don't remember having seen your name around
@being Yes. Theophrastus and before then Onasander. I'm likely going to change it to Buckminister Fuller soon, if it allows me to use a space in my username, if not then some other philosopher with a single word name.
It's one day, sheesh.
