I know I posted this last year already, but sadly it is still relevant.

    Merry Christmas everyone!

    (Our only decoration is a plate from our neighbors that gave us cookies, my wife and I live in our car at the moment, but we are happy as can be)

        Tangent, but I wish we could normalize pass-around bakeware/dishes (with goodies). Nobody in my experience gives away stuff on dishes they want to keep anyway, without explicitly saying they want the thing back.

        I like to go to thrift shops/garage sales and get cheap mismatched dishes to make/give away baked goods in/on so nobody has to think about returning it. They cost about the same thrifted as sturdy “disposables” these days. If they want to return it, that’s fine, but most people forget and that’s also fine, because then later they give me something in the same cheap dish, and that’s lovely. Or they use it to give food to others and that’s also lovely. Or they use it themselves and that’s great too!

        This works wonderfully for holidays or other potlucks when there are a lot of dishes going around, and it works extra well for shows of support after a loss, when the grief makes memory difficult to maintain.
