A Caffeinated Match Game Giveaway

Before Bossy talks about her three cute friends pictured above, she’d like to say this: November 16th. It’s November 16th, people. We’re halfway through November already, which is strange because Bossy is still waiting to pass an afternoon at her local swim club, which closed on Labor Day.

This year Bossy didn’t even have the chance to purchase or carve a pumpkin, and here it is time to prepare her dirty little Thanksgiving secret.

Which leads Bossy to explain this edition of Match Game: Bossy has provided a list of her friends, and a list of Thanksgiving plans. To win, simply match all three of Bossy’s friends with their correct Thanksgiving plans!

Today’s prize is courtesy of Bossy’s friends at Seattle’s Best Coffee, whose tag line should be: Not just a company name, but a description!

The folks at Seattle’s Best Coffee provided Bossy with two different bags of caffeinated whole beans — one richly smooth and one smoothly rich — packaged in a nice gift box made of cedar or some other weighty wood that will cost Bossy a day’s salary to ship. Happy Thanksgiving!

As usual, if more than one person guesses correctly, Bossy will employ the random number generator to select the winner. Good luck, council!

   Martha is cooking

   Amy is mooching off of Bossy

   And the Hunk of Burn’n Love is going to a cousin’s house.

   Did Bossy know that Seattle’s Best is the only coffee Grandma J buys?

   Amen

    I’m not guessing as I am not a “drinking coffee” type of gal. But coffee flavored things like Kahlua, ice cream and froo froo coffee drinks or froo froo coffee drinks made with ice cream and kahlua call me over!

    Anyway, I am wondering where Gene Rayburn and Charles Nelson Riley are for this episode of Match Game.

    Eric looks like he can cook.
    Amy looks like she will be there to eat.
    And Poor Martha has to miss it all because her cousin is visiting from Europe and she is obligated to make an appearance at her aunt’s table.

    I bet Eric is a monster in the kitchen.

    Pretty sure Amy will be doing right by her cousin.

    Martha? Must be going to Bossy’s for Thanksgivingmas.

    And since you seem to be have lots of pull around here Bossy, could you see about moving Thanksgiving to a Friday. My boss is unmovable about working on the day after Thanksgiving. Clownshoes.

    Martha will be at Bossy’s house. Eric is visiting a cousin, and Amy is cooking. I will be visiting a cousin and cooking a pie for the first time in five years since my baker sister will be out of town. I’m only sad that Bossy’s house isn’t in my plans too. I’d bring a killer pie!
