Wow, I'd totally forgotten that I'd put a countdown calendar on the site. Sorry about that, everyone. Fixed up for the impending event now.
But that's not what I'm here to talk about. If on the 24th you've got a day crammed full of responsibilities you just can't shift, remember, you still have to eat. Take yourself out to your favorite restaurant, or get take-out if you have to keep moving. If even that much time is going to be hard to find, plan ahead and pack a lunch that will remind you that Past Mary was thinking about Present Mary and wishes her all the best on her fine holiday.
Mary D and I always put some thought into what we're going to eat before the day arrives. Even when we were consulting the oracles for the date of the event, we were already considering our dining options. For this year's event, we'll be having dinner at Babani's, the first Kurdish restaurant in the United States.
Babani’s Kurdish Restaurant
544 St. Peter St.
St. Paul, MN. 55402

(And we'll probably be having lunch at our usual perogi haunt, but I'm not going to say where it is until after we've been there so you don't beat us out of the delicious potato goodness -- supplies that authentic are limited!)

IMAD ideas: Tie on the feedbag
Six days to IMAD!
IMAD is all about treating yourself. Perhaps you love cooking and baking and that's how you want to spend your day. Great! Go for it! Meanwhile, the rest of us, or at least those of us who don't have cooking/baking fiends for friends, can use the occasion to treat ourselves to delicious food made by somebody else, and cleaned up by somebody else too, might I add.
Is there a place you've been meaning to try? Try it! Got an old standby with dishes you adore? Go ahead and be comfortable.
This suggestion falls into the latter category. Well, we understand from friends that they have many delicious dishes on offer, but Mary and I keep ordering the same things each time we go. Hey, when you find something that makes you happy, you shouldn't feel bad about sticking with it.
