The Old Folks Home

Yup think many of us will crash kinda early

I already crashed earlier, so will be up till who-knows-when. Used to be a big, festive celebration, then some relatives moved away, others passed away, and now it's just down to my brother and I.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING,
OLD (AND NOT SO OLD) FOLKS!

I fell asleep right after lunch! But since then I've made dinner, roasted a whole lot of vegetables, and made butternut soup. Tomorrow I bring the butternut soup over to my mother-in-law's. It's for eating during the day - lunch or maybe afternoon. To keep from over-eating!

Then return home to make cranberry bread (2 loaves), and pull together the roasted vegetables. I have more vegetables to roast, then find some way to carry them to dinner. Then Friday, my daughter, husband, and delightful little granddaughter (see avatar!) arrive. Lamp chops, roasted vegetables (!), cranberry bread. Maybe something for dessert. I'd better figure this out!

Little Frances (see avatar!) has shown a recent passion for animals. All birds are called "duck," but she also knows "dog" (sounds a lot like "duck"), cow (pronounced "moooo"), giraffe ("ya-rah") and for some reason, is entranced with zebras. As luck would have it, a fairly wealthy individual in my town owns a zebra, and we will be going to see it! We can also see chickens, cows, and horses. I'm not sure where to see a duck. It will be a good Thanksgiving!

BTW turkey fat is a no no for dogs, it can cause pancreatitis & death. I kid you not!

I did not know this, however, I never even considered giving my dogs any turkey fat. Thanks for the warning.

I went to the doctor yesterday. Everything is stable. Yay! I came home to a disaster. Dh had decided to remove the spare fridge from the area it was in. In order to do that, he had to take everything off one of the large shelving units, and move the shelving unit to get the fridge out. The shelving unit in question, is more like an extended pantry, and fully loaded. I do keep my incubator, and incubating items on the middle shelf. Of course, he did not try keeping the things somewhat organized. He tossed everything in the gorilla carts. I got home tired, and didn't feel like tackling it. I'll work on it in a bit. I want to drink my coffee first, then I'll get started on it. I need to put out rat baits in the tack room part of my coop today too.
