Greetings All ye responsible for NOT pardoning a Thanksgiving turkey and to those of you who chose something else to prepare... Howdy to you too!!
Frankly if one would just hand me my Personal Pecan Pie and an excellent cup of coffee I could be persuaded to forego all preparation of anything else, retreat into my corner and be thankful for every bite of the sweet rich meal :)
hehe... all I have to do is a contribute a dish... the ubiquitous salad, for which I might add, I am famous around here - because they are Excellent if I do say so myself... so add salad to my Personal Pecan Pie and coffee... and one has a well rounded meal.. ok ok... maybe, just maybe..... I could be persuaded to taste (just taste, OK) all other contributions....
At the library yesterday, I overheard a lady on a cell phone talking to a daughter or a friend. (the only way one could miss the conversation was by shoving her out the door)... "No, well really I tried" "No, I did drive to get the turkeys" "No, I didn't pick them up" "Well when I got there the place was dirty, you know" "The man who was selling them was grubby" "No we didn't get them" "Yes, well we're going back to the store near him" "No, I can't think of the name of the store" "You, know the name... it's near that place we didn't get the turkeys" "Well, we're going back there now to get them at that other store" "I couldn't eat a turkey from that dirty place"
I retreated to another corner of the library to await the departure of said lady. It sounded as tho she had driven to a farm looking for naturally raised/fresh killed turkeys... oh well... I guess there could be a little bit of dirt on a farm..
Other lives are as fascinating as my own... NO... I did not go back and ask her where she had been... I am not THAT curious...
HAPPY THANKSGIVING Last Minute Shopping Day!! :) |
