ME: Work uses twitter, I should probably pop over there to stay on top of any news related to work.

Canadian Thanksgiving is about Canadians giving thanks that we don't take the holiday as seriously as other countries.
Where can I find some cake rings for a mousse cake in #yet? Maybe @baconhound knows a secret alley of bakeware, spatulas, and magical cookbooks?
