    We’re cooking 2 turkeys this year. The first one I cooked and pieced apart yesterday to make stock so Kate could make everything else using the first turkey. Then the second one is, well, the one you think of. A bit of extra work, sure, but I feel vindicated when I see most of the stock I made has been used up!

    I decided to keep it simple this year with Siren’s Black Friday sale. You get a 60% discount, and I’m also offering a Lifetime deal! The lifetime deal will not be available after Monday, so if you’ve been on the fence now is a good time to pick it up.

    I think I just found my winter break project. I have a collection of plugins on my site that handles syndication. Would be really nice to bundle it up in a PHPNomad Package. Looks like Bluesky really easy to set up.

    Spent time writing docs for PHPNomad yesterday, and the fruits of that labor came through already, when I was able to link to the docs a few times to help a developer with a PR.

    I always think about docs last, but then find myself wishing I had it months ago at the same time.

    Kate and Devin requested stands for a Christmas tree craft they’re working on, so I got to over-engineer one for the 3D printer 😁. The holes inside are designed to hold pennies that will add weight to the base. Designed it so that I can print the rod sideways which should make it stronger since the layers will go along the length of the rod instead of the profile.

    Update: this came out really good, and I’ve printed several of these. Very happy with the result. I shared the print on Thingiverse, and you can get it here.
