Happy holiday, everyone in the US.
My husband and I had sweet & sour chicken balls and barbeque spare ribs from the local Chinese takeaway. Not traditional, but satisfying.
My mom and dad are apparently snowed in. They’d expected lots of guests–my aunts, my grandmother, my cousins–but are on their own, looking forward to the prospect of eating an 18 lb. turkey by themselves. Which is funny, but not quite as funny as the dilemma of my cousins, who are snowed in with nothing but desserts. (Waves at Marc and Jenna)
I had a frustrating day. But I still have many blessings to count. I think the frustrations are there to remind us of the blessings.
Biddy says:
I think I would rather be snowed in with the turkey!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Michelle Styles says:
I know the feeling.
Being snowed in with a 18lb turkey is better than being snowed in without.
Tuyrkey tacos, bird pie are all good ways of using the thing up.
Anna Lucia says:
I’m sorry *frowns in concentration* I’m still trying to see the downside of being snowed in with the desserts…..
Mmmmmmmmm. Piiiiiieeeeeeeeee.
Happy Thanksgiving, sweetheart.
Sela Carsen says:
I think I’m with Anna on this one. Unless it’s pumpkin pie. Ick.
Anyway, sorry for the frustrations, but glad you had a good Thanksgiving!
Jenna says:
We made it to Joyce’s house where our desserts were able to meet up with the rest of the meal. It was only raining there, welcome to Maine!
Happy Belated Thanksgiving!!
Jenna (&Marc)
Julie says:
Thank God, Jenna. I was just sick with worry about the thought of the two of you having to eat all that pie…
Michelle says:
Hugs on the frustrating day, but mmm…on the sweet and sour chicken. Yum.
