Due to the home computer still being in the shop, a belated Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. I hope it was a good one.
I got up early Thursday morning to get started on my areas of responsibilty for the day's feast. Started with the pumpkin pies for home. Good Lord, in case anyone ever told you it is unacceptable to have warm pumpkin pie for breakfast, BALDERDASH! Even when you're almost 50, it's still fun to break the rules.
Pies out of the way, I made turkey and dressing, the turkey for us and the dressing to take to my sister's. IMHO, dressing just doesn't taste right if it hasn't taken up residence in the ass end of the bird, but it was passable.
So we bundled up and headed out. For two large families getting together, we had enough food for three times that many. We got to spend some good quality time with The Heiress and nieces and nephews, sisters and parents.
All said, a lot to be thankful for. Especially three of my sisters and my brother. Helping me out even though I did not ask.

Other randomness: is this a good thing or a bad thing? When Sarge and I were getting groceries earlier this week, I was adding my paycheck into my register and commented that I'd made X$ so far this year. He gave me a funny look, and said that I had made more than him. And since then, he's made dinner (WTF!! Lasagne from scratch!) and called me to ask for a honey do list. I'm scared.
