...so here's how today is going so far [View All]

The holiday season began, officially, last night, whith Mrs. OBDs admonition that "I am not eating no damn tofurky." Not that I thought she would, but why not at least offer. She wasn't much happier when I chose that moment to impart a grammar lesson.

This morning, an entire tube of Pillsbury cinnamon rolls turned to charcoal during the Macy's parade. Dinner is consisting of a Jenny-O turkey breast and a small pork loin-- both of which have resided in our freezer since last TG, when we received an invitation from kind, caring people -- who henceforth will never invite us to dinner again. On the bright side, I have enough sausage cheese balls to last until New Years and allow for me to gain at least 5 more pounds. I'm making a half-assed attempt at cranberry-sausage dressing (is it "dressing" or "stuffing" in your house?), and I have just realized - this moment - that I have no clue how to cook a sweet potato. Thank Divine Providence fot the internet. The mashed potatoes, this year, are being made by Aunt OreIda - so 'm not worried about that.

...it'll be a mracle if we don't all end up either in the hospital or at Village Inn.

Happy Thanksgiving, my fellow left of centerers, lefties, and wingnut lurkers!
